socalMAN123 Posted October 2, 2009 Share Posted October 2, 2009 The Intimidator Tour sounds fantastic! Considering my dad owes me a coaster trip, this one just might have to be in order. ---Brent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jason10 Posted October 4, 2009 Share Posted October 4, 2009 The Intimidator Trip sounds awesome to me! Obviously being 15 by that time, I would need a parent so I am aloud to bring my dad, even though he isn't a member, right? Also, am I aloud to take a friend, as he loves coasters too, even if he isn't a member? Â Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SharkTums Posted October 4, 2009 Share Posted October 4, 2009 ^Parents are allowed to accompany their children. We've had this several times, and the parents always end up having more fun then they thought they would. Â Also, you do not need to be a member of the site to sign up for a trip, but you'll want to become one once you're signed up for the trip to get access to the private trip board which has tons of information as well as some fun stuff!

Nrthwnd Posted October 4, 2009 Share Posted October 4, 2009 ...and the Europe Trip will have at least 25 credits. Â And the majority of them would be in Europa Park, yes? No? Â Â Â (Happy to be going back there, if I do the tour.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twister II Posted October 4, 2009 Share Posted October 4, 2009 I think a showing of Drop Dead Gorgeous would be in store before Mall of America =D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freekeee Posted October 4, 2009 Share Posted October 4, 2009 i had a dream last night when TPR did indoor laser tag. now THAT would be an amazing thing to do on a trip! (if only because i love laser tag) Â on a slightly more related note i cant wait to ride the pepsi max big one, as my stepdad revealed he would even think about riding it (i want to prove i can out nerve him!)

Xcoaster Posted October 5, 2009 Share Posted October 5, 2009 Here's a rough "credit list" for each preliminary trip plan. I just copied the lists of coasters from rcdb, so some of these may be powered coasters (you might not count), or double tracked (you might count twice), or kiddie coasters (you might not ride). I'm also not accounting for any possible bonus parks, unforeseen closures, changes to schedule, the fact that I have no involvement in planning these trips and everything is still extremely tentative, etc.  UK Tour(63-69) Alton Towers (8): Air, Beastie, Nemesis, Oblivion, Rita - Queen of Speed, Runaway Mine Train, Spinball Whizzer, unknown Blackpool Pleasure Beach (10-11): Avalanche, Big Dipper, Grand National, Infusion, Irn-Bru Revolution, Pepsi Max Big One, Roller Coaster, Space Invader (SBNO), Steeplechase, Wild Mouse, Zipper Dipper Thorpe Park (6): Colossus, Flying Fish, Nemesis Inferno, Saw - The Ride, Stealth, X:\ No Way Out Oakwood (4): Clown Coaster, Megafobia, Speed: No Limits, Treetops Rollercoaster Chessington (4): Dragon's Fury, Rattlesnake, Runaway Train, Vampire Flamingoland (8): Corkscrew, Dragon Coaster, Go Gator, Kumali, Mumbo Jumbo, Runaway Mine Train, Velocity, Wild Mouse Lightwater Valley (5): Caterpillar, Ladybird, Rat Ride, Twister, Ultimate Drayton Manor (4): Buffalo Mountain Coaster, G Force, Shockwave, Troublesome Trucks Runaway Coaster Camelot Theme Park (5): Caterpillar Capers, Dragon Flyer, Junior Dragon Coaster, Knightmare, Whirlwind Botton's Pleasure Beach (4): Big Apple, Queen Bee, Rockin Roller, Runaway Train Funcoast World (2): Dragon, Wild Mouse Gulliver's World (3): Antelope, Runaway Train, Wild Mine Ride New Pleasureland Southport (5?): Big Apple, Circus Clown, Indiana's Lost World - The Ride, Wild Cat, Wild Mouse  Mainland Europe (31+Aqualandia) Gardaland (5): Blue Tornado, Magic Mountain, Mammut, Ortobruco Tour, Sequoia Adventure Mirabilandia (6): Explorer, Family Adventure, Katun, iSpeed, Leprotto Express, Pakal Movie Studios Park (1): X-Smile Aqualandia (0?): I couldn't find it on rcdb (is it the waterpark with soaped football?), but while searching for it I did notice that a lot of smaller Italian parks have been getting new stuff.

Sir Clinksalot Posted October 5, 2009 Share Posted October 5, 2009 ^ Thanks for the lists, I was going to do that today, now I don't have to. Â Need to make sure I get a few "buffer" credits before then to make sure I hit 200 on the Intimidator tour. Â Josh will EASILY hit 100 on or before that trip. I beleve he's at like 76 after the bay area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Medusa1861 Posted October 5, 2009 Share Posted October 5, 2009 Great. The trip i want to go on most has the least amount of credits. Good thing I care less about my count and more about quality. Mainland Europe seemed to have the most "quality" rides. Katun, iSpeed, Blue Fire, Ring Racer(just cause it is the fastest, probably not very good) Expedition GeForce.

SharkTums Posted October 5, 2009 Share Posted October 5, 2009 ^Good point. Â Please don't let the credit lists soley determine which trip you're going on. Sure, credits are great...but you'll also be in a new/different part of the country/world, meeting new people, seeing new things. Â Basically you'll have fun on whatever trip you choose!

There's things to do around parks, usually.  Every park on the Texas trip surprised me in some way. SFoT - A very pretty park, a great dark ride, drenching log ride and rapids ride, drop tower, and Dan and Jew left to visit the Cowboy's Stadium as well as the Rangers. iT'Z - A crazy Disko! Kemah - Amazing drop tower, speed boat ride, aquarium, and presentation on the hurricane. SFFT - A fantastic night show, insane frisbee, great log ride, great S&S combo tower, the storms provided for some sports! LOL! I can't wait for that update... SeaWorld SA - A+ log flume, cool animal exhibits, animal ERT at lunch! Schlitterbahn - Didn't even have coasters and it was considered the best park of the trip! ERT was AMAZING...2 hours of flow rider?! Meeting the people who operate it.  Also, some coasters will surprise the hell out of you. Runaway Mountain at SFOT - This indoor coaster didn't even cross my mind! La Vibora - Soooo much fun! Boardwalk Bullet - Gravity Group never fails! Tony Hawk - Crazy Spinning Mr. Freeze - .....WOW. SFFT's Mine Train - One of the best! And everything at SeaWorld was just great!  -JZ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's the mainpoint for me to go on my very first TPR trip. Â And speaking about those 2010 trips. Do all trips still have the GO, or are some allready a NO GO because of less interrest?

SharkTums Posted October 5, 2009 Share Posted October 5, 2009 North East will not go in 2010, we'll put that one in the rotation for future years though. Â UK, Europe, Middle America, and Intimidator are all going! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

freekeee Posted October 5, 2009 Share Posted October 5, 2009 if cost is the problem you could to europe and intimidator, those being the cheapest two of the three (just a suggestion) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mwm1444 Posted October 5, 2009 Share Posted October 5, 2009 My top choices (to choose between) are UK/Europe and Intimidator. If the UK/Europe combo looks too prohibitive still, it'll be Europe or Intimidator..most likely Europe. Â But trust me Rosie, if I can work it out so that the rain dance for Air can happen, I will Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
themeparkman25 Posted October 6, 2009 Share Posted October 6, 2009 The question for me remains: Do I want to be a credit whore and do UK and get less awesome rides, or do I get less credits in the Europe trip but get better rides? That is kind of like asking how many licks does it take to get to the center of a tootsie pop...you get a million licks but a lot less awesome or do you get less licks but more awesome?

SharkTums Posted October 6, 2009 Share Posted October 6, 2009 The UK trip has some pretty kickass rides too. Nemesis, speed, Nash, Megafobia, etc. In fact if you like woodies at all you'd have to choose the UK trip. Don't get me wrong Europe has great rides too and Europa Park...hmmm something tells me I'm probably just making your decision harder! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
themeparkman25 Posted October 6, 2009 Share Posted October 6, 2009 Nemesis (Inferno too) vs Katun Rita vs RingRacer Stealth vs iSpeed Pepsi vs Silver Star Air vs Oblivion vs Mumbo Jumbo vs vs Blue Fire vs Dueling GCIs vs Expedition GeForce  I know I missed a couple big credits, but they each have matches and they each have coasters I really want to ride. I just don't think bailing on work for two weeks would fly well, otherwise I would half to do both. I'm sure you'll do 'em both again though, but I just don't know if I can pass up EG, BF and iSpeed.

SharkTums Posted October 6, 2009 Share Posted October 6, 2009 ^Just don't get hopes up too high for the 'Dueling GCI's'. First off they *may* not be open in time for our visit and secondly, the park has already announced them as more kiddie and family rides. Don't expect Gwazi or Lightning Racer.

Xcoaster Posted October 6, 2009 Share Posted October 6, 2009 Mumbo Jumbo vs I'd probably say Sequoia Adventure. Â Now that it's beaten out the North East trip, I must say that the Intimidator trip is a fantastic deal, with several world class parks and impressive new coasters in a short time. If I hadn't just visited most of the included parks with either the Deep South tour or work travel, I'd definitely do it. As is, now I'm hoping UK or Middle America will work out somehow.
