Out of curiosity what would they put on it? I guess I am just wondering because the logo for the site is fine but it isn't what you would put on a T-shirt. I guess it could be something with the catch line "The only thing better than Donkeys..."

I honestly can't think that the trains in Japan can be any worse than those in europe when they are packed... There just isn't a physical way that you could pack anymore people into some of the trains I have been on. I have actually let several trains pass before because they were just too damn full to even get on. I guess it is kinda a stereotype about japan probably. Rob that last bit made me think of the Futurama episode where Fry goes in to buy the lightspeed briefs and all the credit cards are gone until they hit "Oh I'm sorry sir we don't take Discover"... LOL Seriously though do they use SmartCards there?

Do you count FAIR coasters?

Double check your board... -
what meal did last eat and what was it

Waits for the metabolisms of the young teens to drop like stones once they hit 18... I shouldn't say anything though... I did a mini-pizza for lunch... lol -
Dive Machines? What are your thoughts?
kenshinmac replied to downunder's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Honestly the current dive machines are kinda lacking because really they only are a drop... The Sheikra looks like it might be a hell of a ride but it is hard to know with B&M as they seem a little too concerned about a smooth low G ride these days. Honestly though that initial drop is quite a feeling. Not a whole lot compares to it IMHO but on the old ones there just wasn't enough left on the ride. -
Ok fine but I am just pointing out that it does exist. The fact is that you can build a DVD with just a simple drag and drop and no one had hit on that at all. I'm not saying that macs are better in any way through this I am just pointing out that it does exactly what Elissa said she wanted. Whether or not you choose to use it the product is out there. That is all I was saying. Please don't interpret my statements as implying anyone is stupid. I am not a good writer nor do I pretend to be and unfortunately it is awful easy for people to take things the wrong way online.

Um Elissa you do realize that all the Apple iApps are completely drag and drop including iDVD... You just pick the video and drag it to the chapter selection portion you want it on and so on... It even has a new feature called one-step dvd that I believe you just drop in a whole movie and it just creates the DVD for you... http://www.apple.com/ilife/idvd/ Take a look... Seriously if you want Drag and Drop you buy a Mac...

I collect videogames... Yeah I said collect... Mainly I classify myself that way because I don't finish the majority of games I own despite the fact that I want to. Of course the fact that I am over 90 games on the PS2 alone could have something to do with it. Oh yeah Monster Hunter pwns you I am over 80 hours in it and I play when I can put together some 2-4 hours (unfortunately not recently as I got sick and that pwned me for a few days).

Dave & Mary Go To Knott's
kenshinmac replied to Meteornotes's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Yep ride op banter is often painful... Especially when they are trying to be funny. The only thing more annoying... Dispatch effects. Oh yes the one place I discovered this on all the major coasters was Thorpe Park. Someone please tell the parks that having a track play every time a train is dispatched gets very very tiring after the 3rd or 4th time. I was just about to yell at someone while waiting for a Nemesis Inferno ride... -
Silliest coaster ever ?
kenshinmac replied to nemesis-storm's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
lol that first one has a middle track that is probably where the go kart wheel runs... Probably won't move in the rain... -
How long can Six Flags operate without turning a profit? I mean seriously...

Tower of Terror WDW Pirates DL Test Track WDW -
Um I believe they are actually planning to mount the arms on tracks at some point... I'm still curious what happens if the arm fails if it is running on a track...

The Great Escape (TGE) Discussion Thread
kenshinmac replied to Red Benny's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
lol ghetto... Old rides build character... Try going to Elitches... New rides aren't all that. You can be worse off... Especially since they moved into the middle of the city with no room to expand... -
Titan was a disappointment to me in almost every way... Basically every element had been done better elsewhere... Honestly I also thought the upward helix was rather uncomfortable but it could have been the damp warm weather the day I was visiting.

Added A New Feature to the forums!
kenshinmac replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
This seems like another thing that could get overly busy quickly... I dunno I thought that just topics worked fine... I guess I am just questioning what this adds. :? -
Waterparks, anyone?
kenshinmac replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Eh I wouldn't complain too much about slides hurting your back... I honestly don't even dare go to water parks here in Colorado without wearing a light t-shirt anymore. I just burn too damn fast and I don't really want skin cancer... Oh and what is with the guy recommending the Elitch Gardens waterpark and not Waterworld? BTW does anyone else not like this latest trend with amusement parks adding water parks? I mean personally I just don't like the two connected. I am not going to move between the two and despite signs I have to deal with wet seats because they let someone on a ride in their swimsuit... issed: -
TR: Six Flags Magic Mountain - 02-27-2005
kenshinmac replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Um I believe he was saying that it is broken... IE not running not stalled out on course... If it stalled there they would have had to have really screwed something up. I wonder if anything will come of the rumors of doing something new with the tower... I mean that ride seems to keep going down and really doesn't seem to thrill many people anymore. I still need to get to Magic Mountain someday... -
RCT3, My first SUPER park
kenshinmac replied to crispy's topic in Roller Coaster Games, Models, and Other Randomness
Seriously find someone who knows how to build PC's that will help you. Look for a mobo with Serial ATA support and onboard sound and throw in a decent 9800. You should probably look at Athalons as they are less expensive. Ultimately with all the parts from somewhere like newegg.com with an OEM copy of WINXP you can prolly get it all for $800-$900. That should give you a system that will play it fine. -
Thanks that one took quite a few monorail rides... lol... The positioning wasn't where I wanted it so many times... That element on that ride was just kinda a little brainstorm as to what to do with that area. I didn't really want to hide the entire ride away and it seemed like a fun way of having it skirt around the peak and do a station pass.

Watch 'em sink!
kenshinmac replied to FlyingScooter's topic in Roller Coaster Games, Models, and Other Randomness
Um I never killed peeps on purpose... I hated that... I just built coasters and loved it. -
Why not try drinking real beer instead of the mass produced funny tasting water... Yeah MicroBrews are much better...

I gotta admit that it looked weird to start with but this looks like it could be an absolute blast... I mean it would just be a different direction of motion to that ride that hershey was getting this year... Oh what was it called like rapid fall machine or something. This one looks like a great small park ride... (Oh no... Watch Elitches will get the smallest one like next year instead of something more unique...)
