If my memory serves me right, my first inversions were on GASM at SFGADV. Talk about a rough start, at least it couldn't get any worse!

I didn't think I had the update either, but one way to check is to look at the Costume Shop, and if the things on the roof are animated, you have received the update. It's more of a small fix for certain bugs in the game, than a full-blown update. Hopefully this pyramid thing comes soon.

All these people posting about riding it, and I'm just waiting for the weekend! Have FP+ for both Saturday Night and Sunday Afternoon. As for my expectations, I'm just excited as it is a new ride for me. I'm also an engineer by trade, so the animatronics are something that I am heavily interested in. If any TPR Members are interested in meeting up on either Saturday or Sunday (May be hitting a Water Park before MK though), feel free to send me a PM. Brian "Who Cares What Others Think!" Bomser

Sweetwater Road Trip, looked good on the shelf, very interesting beer. Slightly spicy nose, with a nice clean finish.

Well, I seem to have hit a point where there are no more regular quests. Got all the skins, built all the required stuff (building my office park), but no more quests. Slightly disappointing.

Watching this Rangers team this year has almost given me a couple heart attacks. Throw in the OT winner tonight, and I think I may lose it soon. It's been a hell of a season for all 4 teams remaining. Hopefully the Hawks can get their stuff together and win one at home!

^ Yea, it's free to leave, but you have to pay to get there! One of the many things I hate about Staten Island! Back on topic: Yes $10 is a bit steep, but so is everything else in NYC. Although, I may have to go back up and visit family to ride this thing. My Fiancé has never been to Coney Island, so that's a good enough excuse as any!

Got all characters (finally!) Then there were some quests about building things that I already had (Arcade is one, not sure of other). Have a couple of missions now, just wish that there was a way to get the three animals without spending clams (and no extra rare items!).

For me, it's a big toss-up. I don't think I can pick a favorite, but here are my top 5 in no particular order: Eye of the Beholder Time Enough At Last The Rip Van Winkle Caper The Monsters Are Due On Maple Street To Serve Man (Cheesy I Know) More so, I love how back then (The newer episodes don't count, kinda like Star Wars Episodes I-III) these things happened in society, and yet it took aliens and fictional characters to explain it. That's probably the main reason why I love Twilight Zone.

Yup, exactly what I was trying to convey above (probably should have made that a bit clearer)! Definitely not a problem for the coaster (at least on the fly, a bounce and roll is another story).

While all this speculation is great, keep in mind that there is a baseball stadium there, and there always remains the offchance that someone will hit a monster home run (400+ Feet). I don't see it being an issue for the coaster, but if anything else gets closer to the park it can cause issues. All the area needs is an unsuspecting GP member being hit by a baseball...

What buildings do you use to get the most bang for your buck?

Just curious, but does anyone know the distance between the coaster and the stadium fence? Regardless, I think this could be one of the greatest backgrounds for any MiLB stadium in North America.

EDIT: I guess that Darth's Mall has been moved to Soundstage 1, which is between Toy Story and Studio Back-Lot Tour. In previous years it had been by Rock 'n Roller. Anyone have insight as to reason why, or is the space just bigger, therefore allowing the selling of more stuff? Not 100% with regard to the limited stuff, but I don't think that's going to be an issue.

Anyone else playing on Android have animation lag issues?

Finally got that last headband for Rambo Lois. Now we have to get 4 more for Anime Peter, but at least there's another way to earn them now...

Somehow I got both S&M Lois and Mermaid Peter before Rambo Lois... I guess this is one of the things that makes the game fun (if you like that sort of thing!)

Yea, I just got that after unlocking the elusive Mermaid Peter... Of course I got the Epic item before the very rare item... Still waiting on S&M and Rambo Lois!

Random question (but on the topic of ride heights), but how tall is KidTums now?

I'm only missing one more item from each of them (Headband, Sea Shells, Whip), so I guess that's good, but it's still highly difficult to get even one of those items!

I was surprised with how quickly I unlocked him, I also timed it right so Herbert read to the kids while the library was doing it's own thing, and got two first editions at once (a couple of times). Now if you want to talk about Rambo Lois, or god-forbid Mermaid Peter and S&M Lois with their Epicly rare items, then I'll talk haha.

To add on to Elissa's post above, yes they're free for resort guests, but the real perk is being able to book FP+ 60 days in advance of your check-in date (for your whole stay), rather than the 30 days for other guests. I did read somewhere regarding a limit to the amount of FP+ days within a 30 day period (something is telling me 7 days) for non-resort guests, but I'm not sure. Has anyone else heard/seen this? Is an interesting aspect for people that live close enough to theoretically go 3-4 times a week later in the day (like Robb and Elissa!). Brian

I have to admit that I was quite shocked when ESPN showed them kissing (and the cake smashing, haha). I don't have any problem with it, in fact I'm quite glad that they did show it, but there was an initial shock factor just for the fact that it was shown. Also, during the draft ESPN was broadcasting from what they called the "first Gay Sports Bar in LA" (not sure if that's true or not), are there many around the country? If not, it's a hell of an investment idea in the near future!

As was mentioned before, I like both, as they accomplish two different things. With the Park Index, it seems neater. With the Forum, I get to read other people's opinions (I love to laugh). Maybe posting the first page of the formal TR (Park Index) in the forum would generate discussion, and then link to the rest of the report in the Index.

I was happy with the Draft. As a Jets fan, we made some smart picks during the early rounds. Not yet sure how I feel regarding the late pick of Tajh Boyd, I think we have enough QB's on the roster, but then again I don't think he will be playing QB. I think that pick gives them another weapon similarly to how we used Brad Smith a couple of years ago. Regarding other teams, I think that the 3 teams who had the best drafts are the Browns, the 49ers, and the Rams. The Browns solidified many positions, and they got Manziel at a steal. The 49ers have quietly had one of the best drafts, and what else is there to say regarding the Rams. The drafting of Michael Sam was probably one of the best moves they could have made. Even if he wasn't drafted, I think that they would have ended up signing him after the draft anyway. With the Jags, I think they wanted to make sure they got their possible QB of the future. I do agree with you regarding the Bills moving up, I thought for sure they were going to get Mack, but Watkins isn't the worst move. Just hope it works out in the long-run.
