Another Coaster Credit Question

[pgathriller]

I have been on the Stealth that used to be at PGA. Now it is the Borg Assimilator at a different park. If I ride the Borg Assimilator, would that be a new coaster credit or would it not because I have ridden it before as the Stealth?

[Erik Johnson]

Nope, you would not earn another credit because you have already ridden that exact coaster. Name change or relocation of a coaster is not a new credit.

[Carnage]

All depends on if you want to count it again or not.

 

There's no law to credits. Just count them however you want to.

[kenshinmac]

What happens if they change portions of the track due to wear or if they need to re-profile something? Does that make it a new coaster?

[coasterdude5]

^Yeah, if so, then I've rode over 100 different coasters!

 

Seriously, somebody should make a guide to counting credits.

[coaster_type_of_person]

Well Robb already did this and spelled out just about everything....just try to search.

[CoasterFanatic]

You can count it any way you want.

So...after riding Scream Machine at Expo, I can't claim Ninja in St Louis if I ever ride it?

[rollocoast]

I may be in the minority here, but I count relocated coasters. It's a diffrent experience to me, and that's all I care about.

 

Plus, to be honest, I don't even know what my track record is anymore.. I stopped counting in 2003.

Why should he be gypeed on a credit just beacuse Paramount was too ghetto to buy a new coaster?

 

IMO if you made the effort to ride a stupid vekoma in Nor*Cal AND South Carolina you need to reward yoself bro.

 

Monica even went a step further and counted it again without even riding it! Now that's hard core!

Yes, that certainly is hard core. Sho'nuff.

 

Puh-lease. I hope that nobody actually puts a "serious guide of.." together for coaster creds.

 

I mean, I've been on coasters that none of you young'uns can ever ride cause they aren't around any more. So do I count coasters, that nobody can ride any more? Hey, it's my word against yours, hmm?

 

What-ever. Have fun debating the subject, bois & gurls.

I have been to SFMM twice and both times Deja Vu was closed. I have had enough ... I am counting it!

[tngdiablo]

Well, I think that if you relocate a coaster and the theming and environment surrounding the ride changes, then you should count it. Then again I counted Cheetah Chase and Wild Maus at both Busch Gardens parks.

You should count the ones at SFOG and SFGAm too.. same difference

Good! Now I can count all the driveways I've ridden!

I count any coaster that is on RCDB, that I have been on!

I have been on the Deja vu's at SFMM and SFOG the only reason I haven't been on the one at SFGAM is because I have never been to that park! I guss I'm somewhat lucky because I got the Deja-vu credit on my first visit since it was built!

You are lucky!

 

Deja-Vu @ SFMM, 17 rides on media day

Deja-Vu @ SFGA, went in '02, '03 and finally rode it this year. ('05)

Deja-Vu @ SFoG, went in '02, '03, '04 and '05. I have yet to ride it.

Does a coaster count as a credit if you only ride it once, and you have to get off at the MCBR due to technical difficulties. (Hypothetical Question)

[Canobie Fan]

No thats only .5

^ & ^^ Kind of like only riding one side of The Racer or Grand National
