Solution for Line Jumpers
Noporian replied to aCoasterStory's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
If the park has a wristband system they should cut their wristband for linecutting. The motto for that should be: "You cut our lines, we cut your wristbands." -

How about security cameras and when caught prison for over 9000 years? Seriously though they should just have security cameras and then not let them onto the ride. -

Should coaster entrances have weight scales?
Noporian replied to adamd's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I don't know much if they do this in other countries but at least over here in finland they don't need like light indicators or such to tell whether the restraint is locked or not because they always test it by pushing the restraint strongly down and then pulling it. On each restraint. It's really efficient -
If your a bigger rider just the lap restraint may not hold you in. I'm not saying the hydraulics failed (the restraint would come up in that case) I'm saying the force from the ride plus his weight his shoulders could have pushed through the plastic harness and basically they tore (I don't believe there is metal inside the plastic) so it is indeed possible to push through it with enough force (which these rides can provide said force) not to mention the amount of strain on the restraints from prior riders. I've only ridden Green Lantern which my understanding is the most tame of all these Zac Spins and no joke my shoulders had red marks all over (also my thighs) I can't even imagine how many times you are going forward and back against the restraint being spun around on any other Zac Spin. This is of course all assuming thats what indeed happened. The only other thing I can think of is the restraint popped up but to your point that would be a hydraulic fail and I doubt that happened plus the seatbelt (as long as it was put on) holds it in place in case that were to happen. What part do you mean by plastic? Because the part that holds the person in is the big thick bar that's basically a padded thick metal tube. The vest looking part is only there to keep the person more steady on the ride, and i don't know why but green lantern is the only zacspin that actually puts alot of stress on the vests, such as you explained.

S&S or Intamin
Noporian replied to coastercrazy216's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
S&S towers have too loose restraints and they bounce too many times. Also MACH towers from moser deserve more popularity and recognition. They're really good and surprising. -
Rollercoaster Tycoon 2 Expansions
Noporian replied to MARK's topic in Roller Coaster Games, Models, and Other Randomness
Well if you think about it the main reason for the cheapness of rides in rct3 is because the amount of guests is still realistic, and then that means that you'd literally have to wait in your park for up to a year irl to get a new ride. -
Um http://rcdb.com/4191.htm sorry remembered it wrong.

Why does RMC use two different coaster trains?
Noporian replied to adamd's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
How about their new coaster design? The one that's like an extended launched skyloop? -
That inverted coaster isn't vekoma, it's a Chance morgan family coaster.

Neither, if you look at them they're very different. Premier decided to use a similar design after maurer's success. -

This is a mondial rollover with much potential. If you look at videos of them you'll see they can be much better. -
Photo TR: Havin some fun at Linnanmäki
Noporian replied to Noporian's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Though a positive side to that ride (vonkaputous) they've added those drying booth things and they're quite effective. -
Favourite intamin flat ride?
Noporian replied to Noporian's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Well were not counting modern intamin drop towers so... -
Okay so I went to Linnanmäki and thanks to their amazing sale (8€ only for the wristband next day), I got to go there on two days! And the train to Helsinki is really cheap so the extra spend on that didn't matter. Unlike most people might, I didn't visit the Scenic Railway ride because I personally hate it because it feels like it's giving me a concussion. I took some pictures, but my phone lost a lot of them. Yes I took them with my phone. But they're surprisingly good! So without anymore bullcrap here's some pics! Fabulous pants Sun got in the way but this is the new "witch train" Hey look it's the original Zacspin! I've seen some people claiming it's a cheap copy of Green lantern. Funhouse time! Tilted room. Infinite mirrors. Creepy first aid guy. Oh pardon me i didn't spot you urinating in the lavatory. Spinning barrel Moving stairs Hey look it's Tulireki/E-Motion coaster/Pointless coaster/What motion? Poor dragon lost it's arm. Maybe it should use that treasure to pay for a new one? Ferris wheel with car ride underneath. (cars aren't allowed to bump into eachother) Gay pride enterprise! It's Ukko! The weirdly named Skyloop! Up in da club drinking some space shots. Space schedule While the queue might not be that great, I still prefer this Linnunrata zierer force coaster to any space mountain, plainly due to the fact that the space mountain rides have like no theming during the coaster itself. This one does have some though and it's great! Well isn't that a political name for a Top Spin. oh. Topspin was closed the whole day WHAT ARE YOU DOING WITH THAT FRY Pedophile sun is watching you ride the schwartzkopf monster ride. Weeeeeeeeeeeeee Relatively new kids area Expensive restaurant Lil' zamperla Oh look! What do you know! It's screw you the ride! Where you see threesomes behind curtains Some really weird fetishes creepy people watching you ride Musclemen having constipation issues And clowns farting in your face. For sign enthusiasts out there Entrance to the new droptower. Goin' up. You gotta come down eventually! Panorama observation tower. The exit of the drop tower actually forces you to go through the boutique. How clever. Empty HUSS booster Action shots Annoying talking trash bin. It yells stuff like: -"Yay i like trash! Give me more! Let's keep the environment clean!" Maurer spinner with rapids underneath. The spinner was closed for a while. More rapids I suppose it's time to leave. thanks for reading this TR.

Going to parks alone?
Noporian replied to alilstronger's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Im going to Linnanmäki tomorrow (or at the time of reading this reply today or later) and i'm most likely doing it alone. Gonna post a TR about it though. -

Why Does Everybody Hate on Six Flags?
Noporian replied to eltororider's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
They hate on SF because excessive uncreative name copying and ride copying, ride moving and calling brand new, trying too hard to be great, all this other stuff.
