CdnbMatt Posted November 19, 2007 Posted November 19, 2007 How well do you think you know North American theme parks? For kicks I created a quiz so you can find out! All you need to try is Facebook. Visit http://apps.facebook.com/travelpod-challenge/community/503829448/4660 It will automatically record your score so you can see how well you do against the world. Good Luck!
CdnbMatt Posted November 19, 2007 Author Posted November 19, 2007 For the record I scored 77,465 points on my own quiz......which is kind of sad.... not really a great score.
Guest Posted November 19, 2007 Posted November 19, 2007 Meh I took it a few times, did ok. Good quiz. I knew general areas on some, but not all.
AllenA07 Posted November 19, 2007 Posted November 19, 2007 ^^If you wrote the quiz how could you not do good? I mean logically you should know all the answers.
Homer Posted November 19, 2007 Posted November 19, 2007 3rd placed it with a score of 119,510. EDIT: Just what I needed, another Facebook app.
coaster_dude2002 Posted November 19, 2007 Posted November 19, 2007 Nice job on the quiz. I was way off for a few parks, but after two tries I scored 93,503 points.
SharkTums Posted November 19, 2007 Posted November 19, 2007 I did it once...I think it's funny one of the ones I messed up the most was SFMM!!! Although my closest one was Geauga Lake 6km away, so who knows!
Acero Posted November 19, 2007 Posted November 19, 2007 btw, darien lake is NOT in new york city. =] just thought i'd let you know. or maybe you do know, but the quiz certainly doesn't know.
mightypotato Posted November 19, 2007 Posted November 19, 2007 And coming in a solid 4th...me! WTF is with Darien Lake though? Last I checked, I didn't have to drive to NYC to ride ROS. EDIT: Also as a random plug, join the "Theme Park Review Fans" group. All the cool kids are doing it.
Acero Posted November 19, 2007 Posted November 19, 2007 139,589 for my third try. but i have to say some of these are quite random. especially the darien lake one. i would love it though, if ride of steel was convienently located twenty minutes away from me (rather than eight hours...)
CdnbMatt Posted November 19, 2007 Author Posted November 19, 2007 If you wrote the quiz how could you not do good? I mean logically you should know all the answers. The way the quiz making is set up I don't actually have to know the locations myself, I can type in a name and it gives me the longitude and latitude and sticks it on the map for me. Otherwise, yes, you are absolutely right.....logically I should know the answers. btw, darien lake is NOT in new york city. =] just thought i'd let you know. or maybe you do know, but the quiz certainly doesn't know. oops...... not sure how I screwed that one up.... I'll fix it. Thanks for the tip.
CP_RULES Posted November 19, 2007 Posted November 19, 2007 What a fun application! I got only 3km from SFStL, 18 from SFMM, 8 from Marineland, and 3 from BGA.
VegasCoaster Posted November 20, 2007 Posted November 20, 2007 Currently 6th, but I'm going to have to see if I can't whittle that down a little.
supermanrosfan0810 Posted November 20, 2007 Posted November 20, 2007 Geography happens to be my forte! 148,050, top score!
xcastn0shad0wx Posted November 20, 2007 Posted November 20, 2007 i thought i was still in first till i read that^ i can not get over 146381
Pufferfish Posted November 20, 2007 Posted November 20, 2007 Woo, I got 98,095! Considering I've never been farther than two states away from my home, that's really good.
supermanrosfan0810 Posted November 20, 2007 Posted November 20, 2007 The lead is mine once again! 149,138.
coasterdude28 Posted November 20, 2007 Posted November 20, 2007 The first time I tried it, I got 71,384. My best for that round was 1km away from SFGAdv, but that is my home park. My high score now is 132,902.
ahecht Posted November 21, 2007 Posted November 21, 2007 115912 is my best. And, as others have said, your location for Darien Lake is wrong, it's in Darien, NY not New York, NY
thecoasterkid Posted November 21, 2007 Posted November 21, 2007 Third place is mine...for now. I will take over first though!
ParkTrips Posted November 21, 2007 Posted November 21, 2007 at a certain point it becomes less of knowledge and more of a game of guessing the points that you've memorized. Fun game... once
thecoasterkid Posted November 21, 2007 Posted November 21, 2007 Game officially conquered. I've got first locked up, and now to make my own...bigger...version.
coasterdude28 Posted November 22, 2007 Posted November 22, 2007 I had first last night with just over 150,000. Now I am in second. My best hit was 0KM away from CP.
thecoasterkid Posted November 22, 2007 Posted November 22, 2007 In my first place round I had two perfect matches. One was Darien Lake and the other was Magic Kingdom. I've finished my Quiz. You can check it out here. There are 50 different American parks in the game. The entire Six Flags, Cedar Fair, Busch Gardens, Disney, Sea World, and Universal parks are in it, as well as alot of random independant parks. As long as it will let me I'll slowly add more parks to the game until I reach the 100 location maximum. This should definitely up the difficulty as you can't simply memorize the locations of all the parks now. Please let me know if you find any errors and I'll fix them as quickly as possible. Thanks!
