SharkTums Posted April 17, 2011 Share Posted April 17, 2011 ^The steel poll definitely does not reflect actual credits due to all of the clones! KT can only rank 9 things, but she has over 100 Jeff Johnson credits! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AstroDan Posted April 21, 2011 Share Posted April 21, 2011 Just helped KT submit her second ever steel poll! 1 Rasender Roland Hansa-Park DE That coaster is awesome - couldn't believe how much better it was from the average Vek Roller Skaters when I visited last weekend!! Disappointed to see so few European rides in peoples rankings, although I guess it's just a case that a lot of people simply haven't been to European parks (yet!). I still get frustrated that rides such as Sonic Spinball and Dragons Fury don't get their own entries, though...

cfc Posted April 23, 2011 Share Posted April 23, 2011 OK, my ballot's done. Drumroll, please . . . Top Ten Favorite Wood Coaster (Balder), Liseberg Expedition GeForce, Holiday Park Intimidator 305, Kings Dominion Goliath, Walibi World Phantom's Revenge, Kennywood Park Nemesis, Alton Towers SheiKra, Busch Gardens Tampa Griffon, Busch Gardens Williamsburg Mindbender, Six Flags Over Georgia Diamondback, Kings Island The only additions to my top ten are I305 and Mindbender. The Bottom-Ten Hall of Shame Tulireki, Linnanmaki Cobra, Tivoli Friheden MegaBlitz, Coney Beach Goudurix, Parc Asterix G Force, Drayton Manor Eejanaika, Fujikyu HighLands Great American Scream Machine, Six Flags Great Adventure (rest in pieces) Ninja, Six Flags St. Louis Ninja, Six Flags Over Georgia Space Mountain, Disneyland Paris I've added a pair of Ninjas. I think Space Mountain in Paris will always occupy the bottom spot, because Disney should be ashamed of this thing, (I'd rather ride Primeval Whirl.)
