DBru Posted October 21, 2008 Posted October 21, 2008 I'm not big on the names, AlmereStars, but I love your logo skills!
Twister II Posted October 22, 2008 Author Posted October 22, 2008 UPDATE! Â Construction on the two drop towers has continued along at the fairgrounds. With the new name....Red & Bleu Diamonds! This ride has GOT to bring in a big attendance - much bigger than Vortex could probably bring in too! The final stages of construction are being worked on. This update, I noticed that a lot has been done; finished painting, queue lines are up, control room is up, and some foliage has been added around the area! The Diamonds should be opening soon.... Â In other news, Elitch Gardens is currently in the process of being packaged up and stored. However, the parks manager - and good friend - has offered to give the fairgrounds some rides free of charge (except shipping/installing)! This is great news! Could the fairgrounds finally be receiving an actual roller coaster?! Exciting news to ponder.... Â Also, the parks process with the new bus stop at the fairgrounds is complete! This will offer guests to come in from all of the surrounding areas. What I heard is that after RTD (bus systems here) came to look at the conditions of the road, they offered to put in a small amount of roads for the buses! Since the land outside the park is still owned by the City of Denver, none the money came from the parks pockets. The extra foliage from the renovation has been spread throughout the park. Even with the new bus system and less people driving to the park, the parking lot is still overflowing. A piece of fence has been taken out for a makeshift dirt parking lot... Â In all, things are looking up for the fairgrounds! A new sponser is on the way, but the fairgrounds haven't released any details yet.... Â On to the pictures! Â Â ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Â Alright guys, now here is where you come into play! Help out the fairgrounds decide what to do next! Get our the old MS Paint, or any other photoshop like editors and put down what you want to see happen with this park! Â Start drawing up your plans! We need to find a home for a new roller coaster! We must keep both the carousel and the kiddie coaster. Anything can move (nothing is permanently situated). Â With that, edit the image below to show where you want things to go! Â Â Remember: Â -+- Most of the guest complaints were targeted at the poor path placements and the bottlenecking of the food service area. -+- The park has still taken a blow from Vortex. All new rides must be reliable! -+- This isn't quite yet a park - it's still fairgounds. Things have to be able to be relocated... -+- The family base is starting to drop off.... -+- The land to the west of Star Swatter is off limits. The grounds wants to move the park more south, but is not restricted to. Â Â Good luck! More soon! Â EDIT: NOTE!!! ONLY PLANS THAT ARE DRAWN UP WILL BE CONSIDERED FOR BUILD! IF YOU WANT YOUR IDEA IN THE PARK, DRAW THEM!
DBru Posted October 23, 2008 Posted October 23, 2008 I realize you may need more room for a Galaxy coaster, but I think it will fit in well... Maybe a small Jet Star? Â Anyway, here is my suggestion: New coaster and another shade structure.
AlmereStars Posted October 23, 2008 Posted October 23, 2008 haha, I like how you make the rides a diamond! I'll think about some stuff later I like the idea Dbru came up with
Cygnus12 Posted October 23, 2008 Posted October 23, 2008 Definately a Jet Star type model like DBru suggested. It won't take up much space (especially if you use a spiral lift), they are thrilling as heck but good for families as well.
TurboWagon Posted October 23, 2008 Posted October 23, 2008 Might I suggest a small looping corkscrew coaster, I think it would match the size of the park quite well while not having a repetitive "small steel coaster" feel to the park. Its a little more beefy than a JetStar type and the peeps might go crazy for an inversion! Â Although I do think a JetStar would be appropriate, maybe a simple boomerang or small powered launched coaster too. It will give the park an advertising point for the future.
Jcoaster Posted October 23, 2008 Posted October 23, 2008 I like the idea of a Vekoma Boomerang. They take up small amounts of space but add high thrills to the park. They are great for advertising. People will love the sound of going through inversions backwards.
DBru Posted October 23, 2008 Posted October 23, 2008 But keep in mind guys, he said it must be portable...
Twister II Posted October 23, 2008 Author Posted October 23, 2008 Here is what I'd like to see. Â You guy can also endorse an idea that you like as well. Â REMEMBER: You can move stuff around, scrap it, whatever. The park has a new sponsor that's supporting a lot of this. It can't be to grand, but a fair amount. Please add no more than 5 new things (not including path extensions or shade areas) - these include shops, rides, buildings, etc. Â Don't be afraid to show what you'd like to see in it's future as well! New Parking lot, guest relations building, spiral-lift coaster, path extensions, new shops, and dark ride. Future plans for a small out-n-back woodie with a lake.
Thelegendarymatthew Posted October 23, 2008 Posted October 23, 2008 How about a coaster from geagua lake? Or how about astroland?

Thelegendarymatthew Posted October 24, 2008 Posted October 24, 2008 Here's the guide! Blue-Lakes Black-Looping Star Green-Pathway Purple-Pirate Boat or a Ferris Wheel Red-Dark Ride Brown-Log Flume
KPWoCkAxX Posted October 25, 2008 Posted October 25, 2008 A 3 tile wide Log flume? Hmm....... I like the dark ride idea though!
AlmereStars Posted October 28, 2008 Posted October 28, 2008 @Thelegendarymatthew: nice planning, but you have to select more tiles for everything you want to do
angryemobeaver Posted October 29, 2008 Posted October 29, 2008 White: I have no idea what to make there Red: Tilt-A-Whirl Blue Rectangle: Shops Blue & Black globs: small lake, picnic, & maybe a few small waterslides Yellow: Pinfari coaster
AlmereStars Posted November 5, 2008 Posted November 5, 2008 so whats happening to this park TwisterII?
Cygnus12 Posted November 9, 2008 Posted November 9, 2008 Here's my idea for the park! (Forgot the 's' in largest btw) Â Â lol
BelgianGuy Posted November 9, 2008 Posted November 9, 2008 I had a few ideas of my own. Â Black is paths Red is a flat ride(something kid friendly like a spiral slide) Green is a building(maybe guest relations) Purple is a boomerang(common or inverted shuttle) Blue is a splash boats or a compact woodie My drawing of what o do with the fairground
Twister II Posted January 5, 2009 Author Posted January 5, 2009 Well, Â due to a virus and some trojans on the mother board - my computer was officially and completely deleted. Including all of my RCT3 files and parks. Sorry guys. Oh well. After the hours it takes to reinstall everything - I'll get back into it. Â Until next time...
terrancew_hod Posted January 5, 2009 Posted January 5, 2009 ^Was it through looking at porn? Â I say that because when I had to rebuild my friends' PC they were always trying to look at those "free" sites. That's how you pay... Â Also (and I've said this many times), back up your documents! I have my coaster park on backup DVDs, a keychain drive and backed up through time machine. That's a lot of places, but then I put a lot of work on my stuff not to have it disappear off the face of the earth. Â Terry
Twister II Posted January 5, 2009 Author Posted January 5, 2009 This is the second time it has happened. Im thinking it has to do something with my brother and all the crap he downloads for Worlds of Warcraft. Stupid game. Â ^Was it through looking at porn? You know I can't resist two girls one cup. Only the best. Â Really guys, RCT3 isn't worth $200 to me. Ha. If I lose it, oh well. The annoying part is getting all the scenery packs back! With as many packs as I had, it wouldn't fit on my thumb drive. Besides, Im off to college in August - I'll have an apple computer then, no more windows. Â If anyone would like to donate an external hard drive my way or start a fund, let me know. I got some pocket fluff and a few crumbs in my pocket.
