Well, I'm weird... I don't fall into any of those. I have an HP laptop with a 15.4" widescreen display, and my default resolution (which is what I use) is 1280x800. My screen and graphics card can handle up to 2048x1536, though. So, "other" I guess. Gosh, I remember the days of 640x480...

^Yeah, I'd say it is nice how Nitro is hidden in the woods, but it would be nicer if it had a part where it interacted with another ride or the midway. As far as Tussaud's surviving in the US, I think they could, with some good effort, especially seeing as they'd already have money to use to...

^What the hell?!? I have no idea what you're saying...

^I suppose you could say that. I think the reason why UK parks seem to have quite a bit of theming for a small area is because of Tussaud's. They remind me of like a combination of Cedar Fair/nicer Six Flags parks, along with a slight Universal theming touch. I'd be really happy to see Tussaud's...

I would say yes. While most UK coasters don't look like they'd rival major US coasters, some of them are pretty unique and worth going for. For example, a lot of the classic rides found in BPB are hard to find all in one place in the US...as most classic rides here are scattered around the...

^I don't think you just dislike me. I'd argue a point to death with my best friend if I really had to... But, no I don't know Duane Marden personally, he's just well-known around the coaster community for creating RCDB a few years ago. And I'm not saying the sources you've seen for Nemesis...

I've done 80 on Nitro.

I didn't say you could prevent incorrect information from being put on the web, but you can prove to someone why the information it holds is wrong. Therefore, my source is more accurate. That's like saying that a site with incorrect information is just as accurate as a site with correct...

^It may be a crappy rec of Montu, but I was only using it for the vertical loop to prove for g force purposes, which is an accurate vertical loop. And the penis thing was only because of what he said. And I wasn't "whining" about internet info, just proving why the site he provided was...

Don't you realise why the website is wrong? They said "white-outs" are the exact opposite of black-outs. Black-outs occur during times of high positive g-force. That would mean, in that website's description, that white-outs occur during times of high negative g-forces. Now, you yourself stated...

^^Exactly. Red outs are very rare on coasters, as airtime is usually for too short of a period of time for all the blood to expand the blood vessels in your brain, in order for you to see red. However, going back to the last page, the one source Joey posted was incorrect about white-outs...

Why would they be too ashamed to admit it...?

^We didn't say he made it up. It's just officially called a "blackout" and "redout". *sigh* Get your butt online.

50 feet or less... =( jk! My tallest would be 230 feet up on Nitro, with a 220 foot drop...so 200 for me I guess. Superman: Ride of Steel would be my second with 208 feet...but a 221 foot drop. The end of this season will hopefully bring me to 400+ feet as long as Kinda Krap gets back up...

I was making fun of you in that quote...if you didn't get it. Well you tell me now it was incredibly hot...if it was incredibly hot, then your body could have been weaker (dehydration, etc), and it could have made you more prone to not being able to handle higher g-forces as well. And...

^When it comes to humility, you're the greatest... Blacking out doesn't mean you necessarily see the color black. It's just the "official" name for it. Seeing white or grey or even pink with polka dots when under a high amount of positive g force is still a "black out". You said all the other...

I think the reason why some people seem to be disappointed with Hulk is because they have seen a lot of over-hype of the coaster. I really think that if you expect too much from a ride, you're going to be diasppointed with it...and if you expect little to nothing from a ride, you're going to be...

I think c&r was indeed the only one who really got the gist of what I was saying...but I do apologize to Sonic Freak and the rest of you for being cocky in the way I said it. If you're seeing white or grey on a coaster, then you're experiencing a form of a blackout, which is caused by the blood...

What the eff? What ever happened to the days of just "black out" and "red out". They're really the only two "out's" you can do...but grey and white out? I think you mean black out...but maybe you're looking at the sun too much if you're seeing white or grey instead. I think I'm going to purple...

Yeah, I agree...people here all seem to be judging Intamin on Colossus at Thorpe Park... I wouldn't say Intamin are as smooth as B&M, though, but it depends on which Intamin you're talking about, I guess. I've heard Millennium Force, Thunder Dolphin, Dragster, Kingda Ka, and a few others are...
