arrowfanman Posted September 8, 2005 Share Posted September 8, 2005 Howdy folks, I was just curious, I know you do a lot of traveling together, but I am curious...Who has more credits? Robb or Elissa? -Jahan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SharkTums Posted September 8, 2005 Share Posted September 8, 2005 As of 9/7/05... Robb - 789 Elissa - 665 Robb will be over 800 by years end, I have a chance at hitting 700. I reckon I probably have the 2nd or 3rd highest coaster count for a chick. Robb is probably in the top 10 overall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoasterFanatic Posted September 8, 2005 Share Posted September 8, 2005 ^ Don't count out some of those old ACE broads. I know a couple that are pretty well up there. I am guessing that Dana and Lisa are probably the two you were thinking of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robbalvey Posted September 8, 2005 Share Posted September 8, 2005 I'm pretty sure Elissa is probably in the top 2 or 3 "chick" enthusiasts. And after our insane trip we're about to plan over xmas, she might take that #2 spot! But yeah, I'm sure Lisa is well ahead of Elissa, Dana I'm not so sure..... --Robb "She at least has the highest count for her young age of 24!"

SharkTums Posted September 8, 2005 Share Posted September 8, 2005 And let's also remember that it is REALLY important who has the higher count! Happy where I am! Even if it was dead last in the competition! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Erik Johnson Posted September 8, 2005 Share Posted September 8, 2005 You also have to remember that R & E do not count rides that they have ridden a 2nd time after a relocation (i.e. Stealth--->Borg Assimilator). Also don't you count racers (such as Thunder Road at Carowinds) as one credit? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SharkTums Posted September 8, 2005 Share Posted September 8, 2005 ^Correct...and we also don't count powered. This is one of the reasons why Robb's count shows up at over 900 on Coaster Counter but he counts himself at not even to 800. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erik Johnson Posted September 9, 2005 Share Posted September 9, 2005 Do you count coaster that have two seperate tracks such as WDWs Space Moutain as 2 or The spinning mouse coaster at AK as two credits? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoasterFanatic Posted September 9, 2005 Share Posted September 9, 2005 ^ I am guessing no for Space Mountain since Robb even states that Gwazi is "One Good Coaster". But, even the biggest credit purist should count Primeval Whirl as two credits. It is two completely seperate installations. It shares no support, and even has two records in RCDB!

derwood Posted September 9, 2005 Share Posted September 9, 2005 I realize there are many different variations of how one counts their credits. My question, however, is when do you start counting? Is it when you consider yourself an enthusiast? I ask because I have many coasters I rode as a youngster and even through my teens...do I count these? Some of those coasters are now history. I've always been a huge coaster fan but never joined a club until 2 years ago. Just curious what you guys think. d Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nrthwnd Posted September 10, 2005 Share Posted September 10, 2005 I counted coasters that don't exist anymore. Mountain Express in MM'75 is an example. Zambeezi Zinger in WoF'95 is another I rode. As long as you can honestly remember that yes, indeed, that was one you rode. We all got to be honest with ourself, right? If it's just a numbers thing, well.... But's that MO. I was actually quite surprised I had been on quite a few thru my years, cool to find out, after all this itme. And I'll be hitting my first 100 with the UK tour which is nice, too. Enjoy your counting! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because I could be at the same park you are at, and I would never know! Isn't that kind of the whole point. Everybody digs some ME or US time every once in a while.

momo1tx Posted September 12, 2005 Share Posted September 12, 2005 Do you count Dueling Dragons as two coasters? I mean, the layouts are different and everything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted September 12, 2005 Share Posted September 12, 2005 Yes count DD as two! They are completely seperate layouts, as well as different inversions on each one. The more credits the better! Katie, yes I am a credit whore, O. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erik Johnson Posted September 12, 2005 Share Posted September 12, 2005 (edited) Robb only counts Gwazi as one credit? They are distinctly two different tracks. I can understand counting a racer as one credit (which I do) since they both pretty much share the same supports and all, but Gwazi is two distinctly different tracks.

DATman Posted September 14, 2005 Share Posted September 14, 2005 Well, I'd prolly cout Gwazi as 2 coasters, as we do with DD, which is kinda the same thing (except DD is better!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coasters 4 me Posted September 14, 2005 Share Posted September 14, 2005 If you ride a coaster like 5 times, doesnt that count as 1 credit? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoasterFanatic Posted September 14, 2005 Share Posted September 14, 2005 ^ Yes! Even the biggest credit whore in the world won't try to count it again .... unless it's been repainted of course Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SharkTums Posted September 14, 2005 Share Posted September 14, 2005 ^Correct. It doesn't matter how many times you've ridden a coaster..it's still only one coaster so one credit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
