Rollercoaster Snow Globes
YoshiFan replied to verticalzero's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
With them sold out, you can still get them if you make it yourself. They look like the same snowglobes they sell at craft stores with a photo insert. You can just buy the snowglobe, print out a picture of the coaster you want and put it in the picture insert and get basically the same product. -
Besides the ones you mentioned, 3 other ones I have are- Not allowing re-rides on coasters when there is no one waiting for your row and the train isn't even 1/3 full Overpriced skill games Rigged skill games (like when a basketball game has an oval rim instead of a circular rim)
-
Even if it was rough, I think they still should have kept it. Isn't the area where the ride was just vacant anyway? Plus, they really could have used another coaster considering the lack of coasters they have now (they have more past coasters than current coasters!)

Surprising to hear that Pooh never has a line. In WDW, it seems like the line is always 45+ minutes (unless you get there early when the park opens). I have even seen it get over 100 minutes at Christmas. Maybe it's not as popular in DL because it's not in Fantasyland?

Could be a wet PPP!
YoshiFan replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I had considered thinking about going but it's been raining for 12+ hours here. No fun to drive 2 1/2 hours in the rain and then walk around in the rain all day, then another 2 1/2 of driving home in the rain. -
What is your favorite genre of music?
YoshiFan replied to SonOfBeastSucks's topic in Random, Random, Random
Other- Euro Dance -
Yeah, Expert is heavy. The older US DDR games used that system as well were Basic/Light was called Standard, Trick/Standard was called Difficult and Maniac/Heavy was called Expert.

IOA - Unusual Driving Machines ride
YoshiFan replied to JP's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Suppoedly the show buildings are empty. I don't think the animatronics were ever completed or put up in the building if they were completed. -

Joga needed some more songs in DDR. Other than Dam Darriam and Bye Bye Baby Balloon (only found in DDR Max arcade and the Japanese PS2 version of DDR max), that's all they had. I hate how all the artists that had songs in DDR like Captain Jack, Smile.dk, Bambee, Papaya, E-Rotic etc. haven't had any new songs in DDR for years. The US DDR games are getting some of the songs but those are all old from older DDR games.

I have been playing for almost 4 1/2 years (seriously playing for 3 years). I can play most songs on Heavy but the only 10 footer I can clear so far is Bag. I have DDR for almost every system including N64 and Gameboy. The pad I use is the Cobalt Flux metal pad.
-
IMO, Donkey Konga is just a simplified version of Taiko (since Namco also made Donkey Konga). It is almost too easy with even the top difficulty being possible to clear right away on most songs. It's fun but I regret buying it.

Universal Florida Help
YoshiFan replied to Flying Unicorn's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
The problem with IOA is that there seems to only be 2 types of coasters, family/kiddie coasters and thrilling coasters with nothing inbetween. If possible, I would try to get to another park like BGT and try some of the intermediate coasters like Python and Scorpion. That way, you can start with less intense rides and work your way up to the bigger rides. -
No one in my family likes coasters but they like going to parks. It's a shame because I hate going on coasters by myself and I am always a single rider because of it. My friends aren't into coasters really either. They will go on coasters like when we were on our class trip at WDW we went on Space Mountain and Big Thunder Mountain but they aren't the type of people that go to parks a lot if at all generally. I brought up Kingda Ka to one of my friends in the spring seeing how he would react and his response was basically, "Oh sounds interesting, I don't really care about parks and rollercoasters anymore"

Parks I will definetly be visting: Dorney Hershey Wildwood/Morey's Piers Playland (Ocean City, NJ) Gillian's Wonderland Pier (Ocean City, NJ) Parks I might visit: SF Great Adventure Busch Gardens Williamsburg I also hope that I am able take a PA road trip (I have never been to a park in PA west of Hershey) and go to a lot of the western PA parks like Kennywood and go to Ohio and finally get to Cedar Point.

Anaheim Angels. I would like to see someone else besides the usual teams win. And I really didn't have much of a preference after yesterday after the Phillies missed the playoffs by 1 game so I really don't want to see Houston or Atlanta win

Canada's Wonderland 7/26/05
YoshiFan replied to niiicolaaah's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Same with me, I was there in 1996 and all I went on was Scooby's Ghoster Coaster. I remember looking at the Bat and Vortex and thinking, "You have to be crazy to go on a ride like that." Now I would ride both without a problem. -
CP Photo and Video Trip Report
YoshiFan replied to Sgt. Fox's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
That video was great. Sounds like some of the ops are on a power trip with the camera issue. I understand that if park policy says no cameras then they felt it was neccessary to say something but to have someone follow you and then tell ops at other rides really sounds ridiculous. -
What park is your home park?
YoshiFan replied to coasterguy618's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Sesame Place about 30 minutes away. Closest "real" park is Dorney Park about 50 minutes away. -
Do you scream on the coasters?
YoshiFan replied to mark.w's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
No, I sometimes feel a little nervous if I am going on something new like when I was on my first invert (which was a SLC) but I don't scream -
I got 3 rides on the Comet at Hersheypark. They were closing and we were the last train for the night and they said we could stay on for 2 extra rides if we wanted. At Dorney I should have been able to re-ride as much as I wanted because not only was my row empty 90% of the time on Hydra and Talon but most times the trains were less than 1/3 full. Unfortunately, they weren't allowing re-rides. I didn't blame the ops as they sounded like they wouldn't have cared but it sounded like it was a Dorney Park or Cedar Fair policy. Kind of annoying considering they were just sending out the rows empty anyway.

I enjoyed the ride enough to go on 4 times when I was there 1 1/2 weeks ago. I haven't been on any other floorless coasters so I can't compare it to another floorless but I sort of liked the forcelessness of the ride. In the past month I started to try out more thrilling coasters (before August 2005, the most intense coaster I had been on was Loch Ness Monster). I don't think I would have liked it as much if it really had a lot of forces like the earlier B&M coasters supposedly have.
