spaceace12 Posted January 27, 2008 Share Posted January 27, 2008 This doesnt' seem to be up to date, Tony Hawke's big spin was missing from sf stl and scorpion was missing from Busch Gardens Africa. And Cypress Gardens was missing. Indiana Beach is also missing. A few coasters from SFKK is missing. Two from Six Flags St. Louis is missing.

SFGAm Shock Wave Posted January 27, 2008 Share Posted January 27, 2008 Clones are grouped together (ie. The 2 steel at Indiana Beach are represented by Favorite Galaxi and Favorite Jet Star) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spaceace12 Posted January 27, 2008 Share Posted January 27, 2008 okay, I need help then on picking which ones are what. Here is my list. http://www.coastercounter.com/spaceace12 Just pm me a screenshot of that first selection area should be. I can't figure out THBS what is on there.

spaceace12 Posted January 27, 2008 Share Posted January 27, 2008 Thanks Scparri (SP), that helped a ton. Here is my list. Sheikra Busch Gardens Tamp FL,y,y,1 Favorite Wood Coaster Any Park Anywhere **,y,y,2 Chang Six Flags Kentucky KY,y,y,3 Batman The Ride/Clone SF & Other Parks **,y,y,4 Mr. Freeze Six Flags St. Loui MO,y,y,5 Tony Hawk's Big Spin Fiesta Texas:SF TX,y,y,6 Expedition Everest Disney Animal King FL,y,y,7 Rock `n' Roller Coast Disney MGM Studios FL,y,y,8 Ninja Six Flags St. Loui MO,y,y,9 Kumba Busch Gardens Tamp FL,y,y,10 Fav Galaxi Any Park Anywhere **,y,y,11 Greezed Lightnin' Six Flags Kentucky KY,y,y,12 Fav Jet Star Any Park Anywhere **,y,y,13 Montu Busch Gardens Tamp FL,y,y,14 Fav Vek Susp Family Any Park Anywhere **,y,y,15 Fav Wild Mouse Any Park Anywhere **,y,y,16 River King Mine Train Six Flags St. Loui MO,y,y,17 Fav Spinning Mouse Any Park Anywhere **,y,y,18 Space Mountain WDW Magic Kingdom FL,y,y,19 Fav Vek Susp Loop SLC Any Park Anywhere **,y,y,20 To explain my rankings. Space Mountain, got a cramp in my leg and didnt' enjoy it. Sheikra as number one, this is based on this years performance of Voyage, while running good, I enjoyed Sheikra more this year than Voyage. River King Mine train, too jerky for me. As for the other rankings, I enjoyed SFSTL's steels more than Disney's coasters. I used Fiesta Texas' THBS since it is missing from SF STl's selection. These rankings were harder than my wood coaster rankings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jhcbiinoc Posted January 27, 2008 Share Posted January 27, 2008 Thanks to CoasterFanatics for the easy to fill out poll....I just filled mine out, since I didn't do any out of state coaster trips in 2007, my top five, all at Magic Mountain and Knott's, remained the same: 1. X 2. Tatsu 3. Silver Bullet 4. Scream 5. Goliath at SFOG The lowest one on my list remained Ninja at SFOG.....I still have no idea why SFOG kept that one and scrapped Deja Vu. Sure, Ninja may have more uptime, but it was the only steel coaster aside from Flashback that literally left me with a headache and severe pain. IMHO they should get rid of Ninja for a mid sized B&M floorless..... Hopefully I can add a few more parks, coasters and states to the list this coming year.

Scaparri Posted January 28, 2008 Share Posted January 28, 2008 ^^So... are you trying to make fun of something or somebody by posting completely random rankings? Seems like a stupid post unless I'm missing something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alpengeist04 Posted January 28, 2008 Share Posted January 28, 2008 ^I think he's just showing us that he screwed up his list, though I may be wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yankees15 Posted January 28, 2008 Author Share Posted January 28, 2008 ^Yeah I'm not too sure what he means, but if he did mess up his list then he needs to email Mitch so he can fix it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RaptorBoyASU Posted January 28, 2008 Share Posted January 28, 2008 Ramses from Zaragoza doesn't make an appearance, and I don't see any broader category that it fits in. Maybe it's not a coaster.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SharkTums Posted January 28, 2008 Share Posted January 28, 2008 ^Kyle, there are usually a few coasters that need to get added each year because in previous years, not enough people had ridden it. It totally counts! So email Mitch to add it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scaparri Posted January 28, 2008 Share Posted January 28, 2008 ^Yeah, Half Pipe is the only one listed. Since all the other coasters there are widely produced clones, they fall under the categories of Fav Vekoma Boomerang, Fav Vek Susp Loop SLC, Fav Zamperla Volare, and Fav Arrow Shuttle Loop.

ginzo Posted January 29, 2008 Share Posted January 29, 2008 I started working on my ballot. Man, what a bitch. I have to use the grouping method because there's no way I could rank all these coasters individually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
downunder Posted January 29, 2008 Share Posted January 29, 2008 I couldn't seem to find the Toboggan type of coaster Little Amerricka has, either on it's own or in a group, anyone else find it? I wish Dragon Wagons were included, so I could put them right down the bottom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
