My condolences to the children. Kids with normal names get teased enough, this is just a base for a tortuous 18 years of life.

^Did you install the environments he posted? But about the ride, that thing was amazing!!! I would have probably crapped myself if I rode that in real life! And I love the scenery!

So make something that DOESN'T have a crappy layout for once. Make an Intamin Accelerator or something.

He just generated only catwalks with woodmagic, and moved them around to make a building.

Why are you so obsessed with making these ridiculously easy Meshio coasters?

Interesting. I think I will try to freeze it with a paradox next.

I have to go with Chris and Ghost and say it was the Rockstar Mayhem Fest over the summer. Slipknot and Disturbed just freaking rocked!

At the moment? Slipknot, Five Finger Death Punch, and Bullet for My Valentine

That was annoying but at the same time entertaining. I especially like the dutch word for radio (or stereo or whatever you want to call it)!

Bleed the Fifth by Divine Heresy

Does anyone here like Divine Heresy? I've only recently started to listen to their music, but I really like it! They are about the only Death Metal/Deathcore band that doesn't completely suck ass imo. Their songs Failed Creation and Bleed the Fifth are my favorites.

I had a girlfriend prior to Sunday. She broke up with me after a bit of thinking. She came to the conclusion that she thought of me more as a friend than as a boyfriend. I'm happy that we are still friends, but I am still really depressed. She wasn't my first girlfriend, but she was my first serious one. And she was the first girl I could truly say I loved. I'm usually ok for most of the day, (although Monday I was really distracted all day and since I was in electrical for the day I was working with staple guns, and wound up shooting myself in the foot because I wasn't paying attention. Ouchie!) but once it hits around 6 or 7 o'clock I start to get depressed. Usually because we would call each other at around 7:30 and talk until her parents made her get off the phone. (About 30 minutes to an hour and a half) Now, when I would usually be looking forward to talking to her, I just get depressed. I would think spending some time with her as just a friend would help, but at the same time I'm afraid of embarrassing myself, making her feel bad (She already feels bad for having her friend give me the news because she was too afraid to) or both. I'm gonna stop here because I'm practically on the verge of tears, but are there any things you guys would recommend to help get over this?

Umm, a vertical lift isn't hard to make. Its VERTICAL. Like a wall dude.

Actually, I have never seen you with an avatar... Have you tried re uploading it to TPR?

I had a dream that I was at a Five Finger Death Punch contest But basically I got woken up during The Way of the Fist because of a violent mosh pit. Then I realized I had the dream because I'd forgotten to turn off my speakers and my No Limits screen saver was playing music!

Q1) Are you Male/Female? Male Q2) How old are you? 14 Q3) When you go to a theme park, do you prefer riding wooden roller coasters, or steel roller coasters? Both. They give different experiences that have their own pros and cons Q4) Of all the different roller coaster trains, which do you prefer and why? Seated, standing, inversion etc… Any kind of seated. Its the only one I have been on and stand up can be a bit difficult on "man parts". Q5) What’s your most favourite ride? Yankee Cannonball at Canobie Lake Park Q6) When your on a roller coaster what do you think is the most THRILLING part of the ride? (Gives you the biggest buzz/rush?) Both the lift hill and extreme airtime. The lift builds anticipation, and airtime just scares the crap out of me. Q7) What do you think is the most SCARY part of the ride? (Makes you think twice about it?) Mostly its height and amount of airtime Q8) Do you think roller coasters are LESS scary and thrilling after you’ve ridden them once before? Less scary, yes, less thrilling, no. Q9) Do you like the idea of an extreme roller coaster? (Think roller coasters crossed with extreme sports) It depends. If the sport is something like mountain biking or snow boarding, hell yes! If it is a more traditional sport such as soccer or baseball, not so much. Q10) Themeing… Is the theme important in the overall ride anticipation and ride satisfaction? Yes. Theme can make a bad ride enjoyable or a great ride even better! Q11) Queuing… Do you like to see the ride whilst in the queue? Or do you prefer the sense of not knowing what is going to happen? I find that not knowing what the hell is going to happen the first time on a ride is AWESOME. But it diminishes over the next few rides Q12) Because of the direct proportionality between rides and queue length, do you prefer short ride/short queue, or long ride/long queue? Really, there is not 'direct' proportionality between ride length and queue length. I would wait for almost anything once, but if its not worth it, I may or may not do it again. Q13) Is there anything you would like to see improved/changed with roller coasters? Many, many things. Mainly, give us restraints that don't kill the ride experience! (Be it with pain or restriction of movement!)

^What?

The side the supports are on doesnt matter, as long as they can support the weight and don't get too close to the track. there is no 'right' or 'wrong' side.

Lets see if this embed works...

by depressed do you mean like on B&M lift hills? Because I thought it already has that? Or was that Scream Machines? I don't mean like on the lifts. I mean the type of track where the spine is depress where brakes and transport tires are. (But of course NL already has that, I'm talking about being able to have the depressed spines on sections of track without the brakes or tires)

Stepping out of the environment conversation, I wonder if NL2 will feature operational transfer tracks, like the whole sections of track for transferring the train to a maintenance shed, and the small moving pieces of track used for B&M and Intamin double stations. Also, controlling the spacing and placement of tires and brakes would be nice. As well as being able to have normal sections of track with the depressed (for lack of a better word) spine.

^Its not the same picture, the train is in a different location each time.

Please tell me you are going to fix the connections between your support beams. But other than that, it looks REALLY good!

^I know, sometimes things have to be posted multiple times for people to look at them. I downloaded it, and it was pretty good! Here is my review of it.* The Good Original Layout Nice pacing for its length (6500 feet long and it still needed a trim at the end!) Great supports Generally smooth trackwork The Not So Good Minor bumps in the trackwork A trim was needed at the end My Verdict A great ride with few problems 8/10 *Yes I totally ripped off dr.gumbo's review style O.o
