Even though I originally wanted them to burn Hurler at the stake, an RMC conversion is just as good

I just find it bemusing that you're extremely fervent in your opinions of rides you dislike...yet when others express their disdain for something and you don't agree, you jump all over them with snide and/or condescending comments. I'm not necessarily concerned with your opinion of X2 per se, but you talk about your dislike of the ride on these boards ad nauseam, so I used it as an example. I don't agree with this at all, but again it seems like you're being confrontational for absolutely no reason and seeking out an argument and I'm not interested in having one. It also seems like you're taking my posts (which in many cases are going for a laugh) way too seriously. I already addressed all of this and to respond again would just be going around in circles even more. I gave my opinion of X2 because I was directly asked for it. I'm not condescending about people's opinions unless they talk about B&M rattle and I'll continue to laugh at everyone that does. We're talking about an Arrow. Again, it's apples and oranges and were going around in circles. Let's agree to disagree (even though I have no idea where you came from or why you're so obsessed with this). You invented this argument out of nowhere when nobody was arguing with you (or talking to you period) and seem insistent on keeping it going. Stop taking things so seriously. I think people who complain about B&M rattle are bitches but I freely admit to being a complete bitch in regards to (for example) Skyrush (and Boldikus will happily point that out all the time of I ever start to forget what a complete bitch I am ). I don't get all worked up about it, I just have fun with it. Just laugh about it and stop over analyzing things and taking everything too seriously. I'm here to have fun not have huge multi-page arguments. You would've been a great lawyer is all I'll say, great skills at twisting things

2017 just because of how fast they're moving with construction and the lack of RMC announcements thus far.

We should do a poll of who's on #team2018 and who's on #team2017...not as a flame war type thing but just a fun competition

I guess we'll see track soon, it'll be interesting to see if this is an all wooden conversion like someone suggested earlier in the thread, or the tried and true iron horse.

According to some Mean Streak was smooth so long as you rode in the front with one eye closed, your teeth clenched, a full bladder, and a jar of pickle juice. But somehow X2 is unbearable

Not being confrontation, just noticed some discrepancies in the things you post is all

Exactly, so I don't think someone is a "complete b****" if they happen to notice that the newer B&Ms do indeed rattle. B&M no longer makes the smoothest coasters in the industry. That title is shared by RMC, Premier, and Mack.

Did you like them better than X2 at MM? I take it you've ridden them both types? If all goes well, I'll be able to try out both types next year. I'm not a good person to ask about X2 because I absolutely hate that ride. I rode it back in it's opening year and it beat the living hell out of me. The first drop is amazing but everything after that felt like being in the middle of a 30 car pileup on the freeway. About ten years later I decided to ride it again since I assumed the X2 conversion helped things but it was still the same horrific, painful piece of garbage I had remembered. Both times I was assigned the back row and got the outside seat which I've been told might be the reason I hated it so much but regardless I have complete disdain for X2. I know a lot of people love it and if the restraints agree with you I can see why because it's a really unique ride with a killer first drop but I hate, hate, hate that ride and consider it one of the worst coasters I've ever ridden anywhere period. I'd rather ride a Zamperla Volare 10 times in a row than ride that thing once. Hmmmmmmm, but then you get perturbed when people complain about rough B&Ms

New.

Cant wait to hear more about this one

It wasn't scary, just gross

Unless they power washed them, I don't think those came off the existing ride

Seems like they're wasting no time, not sure this is for 2018 like many are saying.

I actually preferred Maverick's old restraints, these new ones are soft on the neck but hurt my shoulders like hell.

You make it should like Vekoma has done a lot of inherently bad work. Rough, I'll give you, but that's not always their fault. Other than f***ing over Arrow Dynamics...

Agreed with all of this except that Storm Runner and Skyrush are not elite coasters. Poppycock, dude. I mean I know you hate Skyrush but have some respect How can anyone hate Skyrush?? Yes it's a little painful on the thighs but that's because the airtime seeks to destroy

Mmmm Chickie's crab fries are so good, the sweet potato fries with the maple dip are scrumptious as well.

I'm torn between Maverick/Millennium Force and Wicked Cyclone/Superman

Thanks for confirming that I am not an enthusiast. Gatekeeper is definitely my favorite B&M at the park. I too enjoy Gatekeeper!! Glad I am not an enthusiast too! Pinks is amazing!! We always end our night with Pinks, and it never lets us down!! So worth the sometimes long wait!! That snap when you bite the dog
