australianalex Posted November 3, 2012 Share Posted November 3, 2012 Before this year I'd only been on about 15 coasters, but after my UK trip in June (plus a couple of new credits in Australia) my count is 45. So my top 10 has changed hugely. 2011 - there are rides in my 2011 top 10 that I didn't even enjoy, yet they made it on here due to lack of credits. 1. Superman Escape - Warner Bros Movieworld 2. Tower of Terror II - Dreamworld 3. Spin Gear - Sega Republic 4. Scooby Doo Spooky Coaster - Warner Bros Movieworld 5. Wild Mouse - Aussie World 6. Cyclone - Dreamworld 7. Scenic Railway - Luna Park Melbourne 8. Rattlesnake - Chessington 9. Road Runner Rollercoaster - Warner Bros Movieworld 10. Mick Doohan's Motocoaster - Dreamworld. 2012 1. Nemesis - Alton Towers 2. Superman Escape - Warner Bros Movieworld 3. Saw the Ride - Thorpe Park 4. Grand National - Pleasure Beach Blackpool 5. Nemesis Inferno - Thorpe Park 6. Swarm - Thorpe Park 7. Speed No Limits - Oakwood 8. Hair Raiser - Ocean Park 9. Megafobia - Oakwood 10. Oblivion - Alton Towers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

texcoaster Posted November 3, 2012 Share Posted November 3, 2012 Some new coasters entered the list and some got shuffled around because they were better or not as good as previous years. On the wood list, Wodan enters at #8 and Legend, which I was never overly fond of before, kicked my azz with multiple OMGWTF rides this year and lands at #3, just behind Voyage and El Toro. Wow. Raven comes in at #10, putting all three of HW's coasters on my top ten. On the steel list, blue fire Megacoaster sneaks in at #8. The coasters above it remained unchanged.

DougMJr Posted November 3, 2012 Share Posted November 3, 2012 2012 is the first year where I've had enough credits to justify making a top ten list. So here it goes. Steel: 1. i305 (Kings Dominion) 2. Maverick (Cedar Point) 3. Millennium Force (Cedar Point) 4. Dominator (Kings Dominion) 5. Top Thrill Dragster (Cedar Point) 6. Hydra (Dorney Park) 7. Griffon (Busch Williamsburg) 8. Verbolten (Busch Williamsburg) 9. Apollo's Chariot (Busch Williamsburg) 10. Ride of Steel (Darien Lake) Wood: (I only have 10 wood credits, so here are the top 5.) 1. Silver Comet (Martin's Fantasy Island) 2. Giant Dipper (Belmont Park, San Diego) 3. Blue Streak (Cedar Point) 4. Predator (Darien Lake) 5. Rebel Yell (Kings Dominion) I'm thinking next year these lists are going to change dramatically! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tremindouz Posted November 3, 2012 Share Posted November 3, 2012 I only got four new credits this year, but that was enough to change my list. I added Skyrush to the top and everything moved down a spot. 1) Skyrush (the left wing is better than sex) 2) El Toro 3) Maverick 4) X2 5) Top Thrill 6) Millennium Force 7) Nitro 8) Apollo's Chariot 9) Flight of Fear (I love both) 10) Phoenix The ride that fell off the list was Medusa at Six Flags Discovery Kingdom.
