Wes Posted September 3, 2007 Share Posted September 3, 2007 Just an FYI, Big Mike has posted 12 times in this thread. That accounts for more than entire page of postings. So even though right now we're on Page 8, take out BM's posts and it's only *almost* 7 paltry pages. Furthermore, "uncool" Rich has posted 8 total times in this thread, and Larry 6 times, all of them just insults to Mike, knocking the actual relevant page count to just under only 5 1/2. Factor in cool Rich's posts that were slams, and the actual congratulatory page count is a measly five pages....even AFTER all the shameless begging Big Mike has done. In summary, this thread is pathetic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
larrygator Posted September 3, 2007 Share Posted September 3, 2007 ^not as pathetic as Portly Mike himself. Sorry oh Portly one, I have a life outside coasters (although I did get 8 El Toro rides in last night). For the record, two months from now I will have more credits than you. But take solace you can still always kick my butt at any buffet table. Will - thanks for posting a picture of a credit that Portly Mike probably counts, even though he never rode it through a complete circuit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Mike Posted September 4, 2007 Author Share Posted September 4, 2007 Will, thanks for taking the time and being a nice person and giving congrats! More people need to take your lead and be polite. Thanks for posting that picture. That was the best time. Of course I counted that as I did make it over one hill. I would have got a full ride, but as your photo stands as proof, fat ass Larry in the back seat did us in. I did get away totally free from any french fry incrimination. Also, don't be afraid to promote yourself because your afraid to annoy everyone, who cares lol. Guess I annoyed Wes for some reason, but Wes I guess does not have a clue that Larry, Cool Rich, and even Uncool Rich are my best buds and this is all tongue and cheek fun. I obviously don't care that Larry has found 20 different words to call me fat The header says Theme Parks, Roller Coasters and FUN! This falls under the fun part Wes, why even waste the time to count how many posts everyone wrote?? lol I am going to hit that 10 page mark no matter which way you add it up I LOVE that some other dude even copied my congrats post for himself, and I even congratulated him already. Larry, where are you getting all these new credits from in 2 months?? Maybe I can tag along so I can stay ahead of you? I will even throw some contests so you win once in a while. Now that Moderator Wes has layed the challenge down, help little underdog Big Mike reach his goal and send your congrats!! Peace, Big Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Mike Posted September 4, 2007 Author Share Posted September 4, 2007 I knew you looked pretty keen when I saw you Joe. You could tell right away that I was throwing that contest so that the lady would not look bad in front of her home audience. My nice side was showing through that day. See you in Orlando Dude!

Big Mike Posted September 4, 2007 Author Share Posted September 4, 2007 Yep, that sounds like a lot of fun. I need to go back to Cali and clean up on some credits. Hope you have a great time but i think I have enough cushion to stay in the lead. Alas, don't forget I have a season pass to Six Flags and those El Toro rides are only an hour an a half away from me when you go buddy.

TheRapidsNerd Posted September 5, 2007 Share Posted September 5, 2007 C'mon all, that's get Big Mike to 10 pages. It's a worthy cause. Oh, and Mike, to make you feel even better about your coaster count: I have 2, yes, 2 coaster credits in my life (motion sickness thing). 5 if you count previous relationships and a bad recycled joke. Now, see how much BETTER you're coaster count looks? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Mike Posted September 9, 2007 Author Share Posted September 9, 2007 Figured I would bump this back up since it is so important. Peace, Big Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris Benvenuto Posted September 9, 2007 Share Posted September 9, 2007 Hey....Congratulations BIG MIKE!! I'm still in hope for reaching 100....I'm at 85 so far... But here's to 600! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robinschroder Posted September 9, 2007 Share Posted September 9, 2007 Big Mike, It was an honour to have ridden with you on some of the coasters that helped you on your way to the BIG 500 during the Mini-Europe trip! Congratulations! Robin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sfne2005 Posted September 9, 2007 Share Posted September 9, 2007 Blah blah blah japan...blah blah kiddy coaster in japan. 500 is just a number....and at your age it should be higher. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheRapidsNerd Posted September 9, 2007 Share Posted September 9, 2007 (puts on obviously fake mustache, a monical and says in cheesy altered voice) Yes, I'd like to congratulate large Michael for his 500th roller coaster ride. Good show sir! Yes, yes, it reminds me of the time when we we're out on safari in the congo... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Mike Posted September 9, 2007 Author Share Posted September 9, 2007 Derek my friend, That was great planning. If you start a page for congrats, I will be sure to be there to represent. Have lots of love to show for you. Don't forget, I still owe you one treat. Hope to see you at Knoebels?? Wes, thanks for adding to the count but you still have not congratulated (kinda like Derek), so under your math, these posts don't count and I will have to keep this thread going for a lot longer. Chris, Thanks for the congrats and heres to you hitting 100 this year, make sure you post it. Plus, read the next response to Uncool Rich. Uncool Rich - You have to remember, my count was about like Chris B's in 2000. I had barely any credits until I got the coaster bug in 2000, so, "for my age", I am doing quite well for myself thank you. Hope you are starving over there Rapids Nerd, I like your enthusiasm, but beware that Wes will put you on the list of multiple congratulators and your previous posts will be omitted by Wes's math. Robin, NO, it was MY pleasure to ride with you. To think of all the different people I have ridden with on these trips makes it way more special, except the times that Uncool Rich always tried hogging the camera seat when I was trying to get in a "few" shots. You gave me a great idea though Robin, I cannot say exactly which people rode with me on which coasters, but I have decided to honor anyone who congratulated me with a special dedication for each coaster I rode in 2007 that made me reach 500!!! I will report the coaster, which credit number that was, and who is the honorary dedicated congratulatee for that ride! This will start tomorrow, keep an eye out for it! Thanks everyone so far who congratulated. Stay tuned to see which coaster is dedicated to you and if you have not congratulated yet, NOW IS THE TIME so you don't get locked out of this special honor.

Chris Benvenuto Posted September 9, 2007 Share Posted September 9, 2007 Well....thanks for the 100 credits encouragement. I really enjoy going to parks, but I try not be Coaster-nerd at the same time. Usually when I go I try to have fun, more then be like "ohhh...CREDITS!! OMFG!!!" I go to parks for people and surroundings not...well...you know! I went to Idlewild on Labor Day Saturday with my mom and had clean fun, not credits. "I already had them, 2, how pathetic" But even though I said it before, Congratulations and Maybe I'll see you on a TPR trip one day and we'll ride together during ERT! Take care!
