    Cedar Point | "GateKeeper" | B&M Wingrider

    Re: Cedar Point | "Unknown" | B&M Wingrider? I think "Not another wingrider?!" fits well. I'm kidding, I like wingriders.

    Rides that show potential to be insane but fall short?

    For me, it has to be Nemesis. A lot of people say how good it is, and how it's possibly the best B&M inverted coaster - but I just don't see why! It's good, but nothing more than that. I love the design and theming of it, and the way it is different to most coasters of the same type, but I would...

    Are you a film buff?

    I got 57. Quite a few of these films are fairly old, so before my time. Being 15, naturally I would usually watch more recent films, but I have watched some of the classics, like The Godfather (all parts), Blade Runner and Alien. So I think 57 is OK for me. I watch a lot of films, but honestly...

    Favorite Show?

    Prison Break is my favourite, it is just amazing from start to finish. Game of Thrones - I just finished the 1st season last night, and all I want now is the 2nd series to come out, it was fantastic, and a good adaptation from the novel. Others include: Lost, family guy, Generation Kill.

    Which UK ride would make a good movie ?

    Well, I know it hasn't been built yet, but the Swarm could be epic! I'm a sucker for post-apocalyptic type themes, and it's got aliens and sh*t so it could be quite good! :D

    Just to know once and for all, can anybody tell me the correct way to say "meme" (phonetically preferably) :) So is it meem, or maym or what, because I'm not sure... Thanks!

    Tick the Box if You Didn't Know This Word Was an Americanism

    Re: Tick the Box if You Didn't Know This Word Was an America actually that's quite interesting - especially Billion and Raincoat!

    Most Unsafe Waterslides

    Honestly, I wouldn't be surprised if Russian war veterans on crack came up with them. These people must have a brain cell missing.

    Favourite major coaster at Thorpe Park?

    Wow, it looks like people don't like colossus. For me, Stealth is the best, purely because of that awesome acceleration. Often, there isn't a queue for me (which is lucky I know). 2nd is colossus at the front. I don't think it hurts and it always is more forceful than I expect. Then there is the...

    How old were you when you became an enthusiast?

    I have been an enthusiast for as long as I can remember, which isn't very long. I always remembered waiting to be over 1.4m to ride the bigger coasters and rides, and since then I have been a huge enthusiast :)

    Musical tastes

    I agree, dubstep is just screeching sh*t and autotune just destroys the whole "Talent" side of music.

    British theme parks a rip off"say more than half of visitors

    Re: British theme parks a rip off"say more than half of visi Well it depends really. If you're going out to a theme park with a friend (or maybe two) it is fairly cheap, providing you get the discount vouchers. For example, I went to Thorpe Park with a friend with a buy 1 get 1 free ticket, and...

    Ideas for Thorpe Park 2015 and 2012 coaster

    I want to see a mega-lite. There won't be a tall coaster because the residents near Thorpe won't like it much, but a mega-lite, that would be good. I have always wanted to go on one as well, and there needs to be a coaster with some decent airtime, so that is what I want to see.

    Dragon Challenge (Duelling Dragons) No Longer Duelling

    I'm really sad about this. When I go to Florida, the Dragons were the coasters which I could do over and over again on the front without it getting too boring, purely because of the near miss elements. It's still fun on the back of the Fire coaster, but the rest is pretty pointless. Health and...

    what song did you choose when on Hollywood Rip Ride Rockit

    Re: what song did you choose when on Hollywood Rip Ride Rock I did Stockholm Syndrome by Muse (# 123) and Diary of Jane by Breaking Benjamin. I have to say, Breaking Benjamin really worked on the ride, for example the song peaked going down the first drop. It was amazing at night!

    G-Force or Airtime?

    I'm going to say G-force purely because I haven't really experienced any outstanding airtime.

    Millenium Force - Good or plain overrated?

    I know it's off topic, but you have just made my day with that comment (and video). Loved it! :)

    Rita vs Stealth

    Stealth, there is no competition! Rita's launch is alright, but after that it really doesn't do anything. Stealth's launch is 5 times better, but also doesn't do too much after the launch. So, basically, it comes down to the launch, and stealth's launch is EASILY the best part of any coaster I...

    You know when somebody hasn't been outside Europe :P IMO stealth is a lot better than Saw, in fact I think saw failed a little, the drop didn't deliver, it isn't forceful, quick, but I suppose has some pops of airtime. It's fun, but not amazing.
