rcdude Posted April 2, 2011 Posted April 2, 2011 Somehow, I got 17/20. I guess I'm good at guessing, since roughly half of them were guesses.
OldJJman Posted April 2, 2011 Posted April 2, 2011 19/20 WAAAAAY to geeky!! Either that, or I'm just too old. (missed the one about the renamed Rocket for the movie Rollercoaster)
WW1 Flying Ace Posted April 2, 2011 Posted April 2, 2011 13/20 Most of what I missed was about the Virgina Reel. There seemed to be a great variance of difficulty as stated above.
coaster-crazy Posted April 4, 2011 Posted April 4, 2011 14/20 ... missed the one about the Rocket and some of the "inversion" type questions.
downunder Posted April 4, 2011 Posted April 4, 2011 11/20 and as usual I got questions wrong on a coaster I have ridden at Gardaland, but it was a very forgettable coaster - ride once, credit, move on.

Airtime&Gravity Posted July 9, 2011 Posted July 9, 2011 17/20 I guessed on a couple, and there is one question I missed that I shouldn't have.
beatle11 Posted July 9, 2011 Posted July 9, 2011 10/20. The ones I knew I got, but the one's I guessed I didn't.
eddie200330 Posted July 9, 2011 Posted July 9, 2011 20/20 I guessed a few and actually got them right. For the most part it was pretty easy if you have ever read any of the older history type books.
samisthabomb Posted July 9, 2011 Posted July 9, 2011 11/20. I knew the ones I got right. As for the other nine, I'm not a very good guesser!
Mechanic Posted July 9, 2011 Posted July 9, 2011 7/20. Considering that all but 2 were guesses, I imagine that's about right.
QueerRudie Posted July 9, 2011 Posted July 9, 2011 15 out of 20- and I botched one of the Massachusettes parks.... But hey- Schwarzkopf Smoothness is MORE than appropriate!
Jerrykoala2112 Posted July 10, 2011 Posted July 10, 2011 11/20 I was doing good until the 2nd round of questions came... But I never knew Riverview park was the largest theme park at one point
rcdude Posted July 10, 2011 Posted July 10, 2011 17/20, but I had to guess at several of them. I guess I know more random amusement park history facts than I thought I did.
The SETGO Guys Posted July 10, 2011 Posted July 10, 2011 11/20 Seems to be the average that most people are getting. I wrote down some park names that I need to research now! Very Interesting like usual!
