	That ride looks awesome! Great video you got there. *Goes and watches it again* That idea of the tranfer to launch area with rear spike is pretty ingenious. I'd love to have a rollback on that thing. I sure hope the brakes below slow the train down enough incase of a rollback...it looks like it's ready to fall apart.

	There are quite a few gameplay videos here: http://www.gamespot.com//pc/strategy/rollercoastertycoon3soaked/media.html I came across this on another site and figured I'd post it here. There's some onrides of some of the slides and they've put in a Toilet Bowl slide in the game too. My question is, will they have to exit into a pool on the speedslides or will there be a runout like real-life waterslides? So far, RCT: Soaked is looking great.

	A couple years ago, we visited SFMW and it decided to pour...but the rides were running regardless. Problems affected by rain were ironed out and rides continued to run. The park did close due to way too much maintenance needed. We packed umbrellas, jackets (those didn't do any good) and made best friends with an arcade in the Roar plaza, sitting in the booth. Riding Roar was the best in the rain though...felt so much faster. Anyway, as for tips with wet weather is to find somewhere dry if it gets too crazy and wear waterproof jackets if it's pouring. Otherwise, have fun! Rides should be walk-on.

	I don't feel like driving 30 minutes to get to work, so I haven't worked at any park yet. I'd love to be a ride op though and interact with the riders, putting them for a good scare (such as unexpectedly launching an impulse or something during a count down or say "I can't get this to go" and wait a few seconds and launch the train). I would not want to do janitorial work though...I have a hard enough time cleaning up after a mess I've made.

	My day consisted of many idiots on the road. Got up, got dressed...the usual... Drove myself to college due to my friend oversleeping (we usually alternate days and carpool) Idiot 1: Pull out onto a busy street (roads are wet) and this guy decides to back into a driveway blocking the lane and I have traffic coming behind me. Idiots 2, 3 and 4: On wet roads, people braking last second behind me...deja vu of me getting rearended a few months ago Arrive at college go to class Head home Idiot 5: Needle threaders! I just hate 'em!!! Cut me off, almost lost control when he was behind me so I sped up. Got home Friend was supposed to drop by but never called to let me know what's up Played Hoverboard

I most likely lost motivation or stopped due to time...I'll upload more later. This was the start of my SFMW...looks like Elissa wanted to take a visit and test-ride V2.

	Mine kinda came at random...began using it on Counter Strike and carried on since.

	Depends on what I'm in the mood for. I do not regularly sit down with a book and read it unless I find my 'Roller Coaster' book laying around asking for attention. As for books I just read, I just finished Night (the Holocaust) and also just finished Dawn (what happened after Night, as a fiction)

	^ That cat looks like my cat, Sassy, that passed away a few years ago. She was cool...she was a lap cat and she would chase things on tv or try to eat the mouse arrows. Sassy died due to tumor removal. Removal was a success but because she was up looking for me and meowing away instead of resting, she had a heart attack and passed away.

	Amusement Ride Breakdown!Angry_Gumball replied to Mr Stratosphere's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys! We got stuck for 10 minutes 5 times or so on the ET ride @ Universal Hollywood. I got more annoyed on the ride than I enjoyed it being as we stalled right where this repetative track kept playing...and got annoying real fast. My cousin got frustrated/bored/annoyed/and so on... and began chewing on the hand grips...bit a huge chunk off of it and spit it out somewhere on the ride. Finally, the ride ended and we let out a sigh of relief, happy that the ride was over. The whole constant breakdowns just completely ruined a decent darkride.

	We have a small collection of various support bracelets starting up here. My brother has a LiveStrong one, a Support our Troops that's swirled camo colors, a red one (not sure what it supports), a white Cancer one, and an Easter Seals one. I've seen these bracelets popping up like a trend now...they even have some random ones that don't support anything other than the company advertising themselves.

	Ride You Felt Was Unsafe?Angry_Gumball replied to Mr Stratosphere's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys! I noticed that the red loop flexes as the train goes thru also...but it didn't make me feel uncomfortable being as if that metal did not flex, there would be much more stress. Watch an Impulse's spikes as they sway...they do that for a reason. As for unsafe rides, I'd probably go with any inverting carnival ride. I feel comfortable on the carnie rides that are permanantly placed though (like the ones @ SCBB) being as they're maintained, not slapped together and dismantled constantly. I also did feel a bit uneasy about Drop Zone after the ride ops didn't lock us in, which was the next day when I watched the news.

	Got up @ 6:45 Got ready Headed off to the Tech Museum with a busload of noisy kids and loads of airtime on the freeway Checked in at museum Saw the first suspended Morgan Coaster track section* Built a coaster on the computer while wishing they used NL and made it pull 18 g's and it failed...some little kid's design valleyed and pumped like crazy Played with some ginormous coaster wheel that was out on display Watched an IMAX film about the Nile (Pretty sweet screen!) Ate lunch Checked out more exibits Rode the escalator while my brother was influenced by "The Funky Escalator Ride" and began dancing around Checked the kids in at the bus Headed back home the scenic route and passed PGA...DropZone looks like a dwarf now, since last time I saw it in person was 6 years ago Got a massive headache in the bus due to screaming kids attempting to get big rigs to honk at them Finally arrived back to the school Headed home Got on the computer Posted on the boards here *Suspended Morgan Track was a standard Morgan Hyper, dangling from the ceiling
