There were ~35 people this year. I went on a tour, I think last year, that had a lot less people and it was fun, but the look on the ride attendant's face when you respond "32" to how many people you have can only be experienced with bigger groups . The smaller groups in the parks didn't change that much, so it had the feeling of a small group tour. The only downside to more people is that the number of entitled rich kids will inevitably rise as well -

One of the things that makes it expensive is that thehotels of choice are usually Marriotts, with the exception of Hotel Breakers. -

The drive continues as we make our way into Pennsylvania That means MORE PICTURES!!! City Tunnel! OVERPASS! BUS!!! Aaaaaaand a Vekoma Boomerang Fahrenheit is looking Fahrenfine tonight I've never waited more than 5 minutes for Lightning Racer And I've never waited less than 15 minutes for Fahrenheit Vending machine full of milk! Great Bear was empty As was Skyrush Comet had a very little line. Short enough to allow me to wait for the front I got on Skyrush twice, including the last train of the night And the first day of our last park comes to an end My collection so far -

All Canada's Wonderland needs for a perfect flat ride lineup is an old fashioned Flyers for the people that know how to live. -

The rule is there for us to move on to the next ride as quickly as we can. There was someone who would insist on waiting for the front or back on the first ride on a roller coaster, and that slowed us down a bit. Last year, since there was no one like that, we could do whatever we wanted. I was waiting for the front on Millennium Force as our first ride. By the time I got off, my group left -

I just noticed you can see my shadow in the 6th picture. You'll also be able to see some MORE NEW PICTURES!!! I want this to become a recurring theme in my trip reports And another Top Thrill Dragster picture But we went to Mean Streak! We had unofficial assigned seats on Mean Streak. I was car lastcar, row 1, left side. If it was bad there I wouldn't have ridden it again. And we pause the roller coasters for a show at Palace Theater It was a pretty swell show This park has so much Ominous clouds approach That storm passed. There wasn't that much to it but at Cedar Point it's enough to bring a lot of stuff down But it's not over yet. The rest didn't begin yet Raptor was a walk on for every row but the fron But we took an exception to the rule because Cedar Point knows how to run rides efficiently. Night time begins on our final day at Cedar Point The park was so empty I finally got on Windseeker There was a beach party going on so why not? I'm starting to think 2 days isn't enough to fully experience Cedar Point Last ride on Top Thrill Dragster? No it broke down and we were short on time Last ride on Mean Streak? No because I decided to wait for the front because I wanted to see how much better it would be if I sat in the front and leaned forwards like coasterbill always says. I sat down in the seat. I SAT DOWN! And some noise starts to noise. Then dots start to appear on the track. It was raining! So they kick us off the train and since we had to get to Millennium Force we had to leave the ride. They were only running one train, so if they ran both I would have been on. After some intense Millennium Force riding, it's time to leave. Goodbye Cedar Point AAaaand it's the next day and the drive to East-Central Pennsylvania begins. I'm tempted to move here but living in Ohio is a subject of many jokes. -

Corkscrew got a lot taller, faster and redder since the last time I saw it. I just lost all my cool points. When all you have is a picture that's too small to make out any distinguishable features and Corkscrew as the next picture mistakes are bound to be made It's the roof of the tunnel on Frontier Trail going under Millennium Force Now I remember why I took that picture. Everyone kept screaming 'overpass' as we approached it -

That's a sadistic policy when you have Mean Streak Fixed All of my rides on Mean Streak have been in the back car and only one of them beat me up, and that was because I was stupid enough to think the headrest would rest my head. DID SOMEONE SAY PICTURE??? Empty station for Mine Ride I forget what this is Making captions for 500 pictures is hard AND DAY 2 BEGINS!! Walking to the marina gate once again This time Millennium Force didn't break as we were waiting But it did break when my train was on the brake run That was my first time getting the first train of the day on MF and the first time having a ride break on me I think It's very photogenic Wait no it's not just the lift hill. Credit? Credit! Empty Corkscrew Short lines aren't always good Despite the devoted following, my group didn't make it onto Iron Dragon on Day 1 I wonder what ride we could be in line for Not the Ferris Wheel TROIKA Troika troika I'm in!! Now we get on it We're so devoted to Iron Dragon we were all allowed to wait for the front I promised to paparazzi Iron Dragon And this segment of #TCT2016 ends on dots -

How is it that impossible? There's a launched wingrider. I never said anything about it being impossible but it's incredibly improbable. KD fans are in complete denial of reality. I heard Kings Dominion's staff made that post on screamscape so people would be distracted and be totally surprised when they unveil their B&M 4D floorless coaster. -

Our groups usually have a "dont wait for the front" policy, especially at Cedar Point, to save time. The of the group insisted on waiting for either the front or back on every coaster for it's first ride on it. On Top Thrill Dragster, since the wait for the front was almost always much longer than any other seat, we were able to get off and ride Power Tower a few times. I don't know if I will be believed, but on Power Tower, the ride operator let us stay on for a reride -

New day so NEW PICTURES!!! More Top Thrill Dragster Even more Magnum time! Car 1 row 3 and a tightened seat belt. They aren't lying! And now we go to MaxAir Just kidding it broke so here's GateKeeper These pictures take a long time to upload. I consider this empty for Millennium Force This is where we stopped. And we were in the station in no time So many empty rows. It makes me sad but also happy because less waiting for me. We either waited for someone who decided to wait for the front or waited for someone who was waiting for the ride to be fixed. I forget Did we do Valravn? No we left the park to get food. You're a grand old flag, You're a high flying flag And forever in peace may you wave. You're the emblem of The land I love. The home of the free and the brave. Ev'ry heart beats true 'neath the Red, White and Blue, Where there's never a boast or brag. Should auld acquaintance be forgot, Keep your eye on the grand old flag. And we're back! Starting off the night with Cedar Downs I think now's a good time to use those passes. Y'all remembered about those passes, right? Only two people in my group wanted to do the small coasters but half of the group was indifferent. Still, the rest weren't too happy And here's my 150. There was another coaster that I said was my 150 including powered coasters. I think I said it was Ravine Flyer 3 but I found an error in my math. Valravn was 150 with, Woodstock's Express was 150 without. -

I missed my opportunity to ride Rebel Yell last year. Between this and Windseeker the popular vote in my group was Windseeker because everyone except for me and two other people rode it as we went to the Skycoaster. I didn't even get on the Skycoaster -

The park hasn't changed either so HERE'S MORE PICTURES FROM CEDAR POINT! What's the point of this cow? On to GateKeeper Then Wicked Twister We all got 'I'm Celebrating At Cedar Point!' pins and someone's fell off They got those pins because I got one last year and they are all apparently jealous I'll never part with that pin Raptor's line was so empty we got to wait for the front Valravn is a great addition to the CP Skyline I think I took this picture because I donated 10 cents Blue Streak! That's enough Blue Streak Raptor's new paint job If Raptor's vibrant green wasn't next door this color would be fine I don't have much to say about Valravn But I do have things to say about Raptor And there's a Rougarou! Some people say Rougarou is a really bad ride I doubt they've been on Mantis Rougarou is such an improvement Iron Dragon <3 And this post ends with Rougarou. If I try do you think I can get the GP to think it valleyed in this picture? -

I have a dream that one day coasterbill won't have to repeat himself on where to sit on Mean Streak To be fair to Cedar Point, it was raining kind of hard. What makes it worse is that I let someone go ahead of me. -

What brought me to the town hall? What could possibly be more important than a replica of Mean Streak? Anyone who cares to follow this trip report will find out RIGHT NOW!!! Am I a credit whore yet? Hold on Wilderness Run, Mean Streak is here It's such a beautiful structure Second to back row and it was very tolerable Dare I say 7/10? Now walking to Gemini Possibly the most underrated coaster in existence. Just don't get a wheel seat. Do I see a Wilderness Run? Now watch how many pictures I take of Top Thrill Dragster I have never seen the park this empty. Dragster was no more than 30 minutes Another one Some people were waiting for the front so we hit up Power Tower. More Top Thrill Dragster There's a train so it's a new picture We're not going to Valravn, but a ride much better. Any guesses? Wait how long has that second structure been there? And it is... Sky Ride! I haven't been on this since 2010 Excellent views. Not as good as Space Spiral. #rebuildspacespiral -
I don't feel like knowing what 'it' he's planning on doing so I'll say no

Cedar Point (CP) Discussion Thread
ImNotOneOfYou replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I rode twice in the second row from the back and my ride was perfectly tolerable. My friend sat in the very back and he also enjoyed it. I didn't get the front and I will never forgive CP's rain policy for that -
Height limit is only around 30 feet back in that area I believe. Can't really build a coaster there. Is there a source other than a dippin dots cart that confirms that? There's a multitude of reasons that enthusiasts use to explain why their respective parks haven't built anything notable. This is when they rezoned the whole park when they put possessed in. Was that a 540 elevation limit I see? #DorneyPolerCoaster2018 Probably MSL (Mean Sea Level) instead of AGL (Above Ground Level) No Dorney is getting that Polercoaster. It could be BFS (Built From Scratch) or RFE (Relocated From Elsewhere). I believe
