Re: Is their any decent theme parks in DC and Baltimore? I don't post here anymore (don't think I have in a while) but still lurk occasionally to check the news stories...but... Seriously dude? I know as a lurker it's not really my place to say anything, but I really think people could take...

Cheers! The "record" for steepest drop is ridiculous anyway IMO, because for one you can't get "steeper" than 90*s, and if you think about it, any looping coaster has every angle of track possible (i.e 0*s-360*s, a tiny part of the track will be at 145*s, 146*s and so on) so the first looping...

I haven't actually posted in here in a couple of years now, but I just wondered what the hell this thing is/was? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LYGkgQ8- ... re=related stumbled across the video, and was amazed that something that hideous had even been built :( Sorry for leaving and then...

^ 100% correct. Windows machines tend to contain very valuable personal information which may be of great use to potential fraudsters! For example, even images of no limits rides may be harvested by cyber criminals, and sold to the worlds media, or worse, posted on the interwebs! I strongly...

I'll give it a shot...downloading now :)

^ The junction 13 one is the one given by AA maps on the net...we used it earlier in the week, but it's not signposted the whole way from the motorway as others have said. It's pretty straightforward though! :)

A few of you may remember I had a spare ticket for sale for this gig a while back...so I thought I'd post a quick trip report/review. (apologies in advance....it's not so quick) ;) My best friend is a huge Arctic Monkeys fan, and I really like their music, so when we saw that they were playing...

I rode this six times in the last two days...and have some very strong feelings on it. First of all, I think it is absolutely the BEST ride Alton Towers have installed since Nemesis, and the BEST family ride in the country by a long shot... If Alton didn't rave about this being a...

aha the staff did come in for some abuse because skyride was "working" so why shouldn't th13teen ;) the number of times they explained...some people :roll: the park did handle it fantastically though :)

^ deadly serious the toilets didn't flush :P It was the mutiny bay ones....I assume they have electric pumps to circulate the water or something? Taps worked, but only cold. Yeah, can't fault the staff at all, the Ride ops on Th13teen did an especially good job, responding with good humor to...

I was there :P Was queuing for the flume at the time....and the whole place just ground too a halt. The Music stopped along with the ride, and was replaced by the breakdown announcement on a near constant loop. Staff ran to the lifthills and explained the situation to the trapped guests (with...

certainly the best I've been on....and I've done Nemesis, Nemesis Inferno, Montu and both dueling dragons. Although montu came close on intensity in one or two places, it didn't have the atmosphere, or like others have said the interactions with the environment that make nemesis so...

I'm pretty sure he just provides the very basic ideas for a ride (and I'm also pretty sure it isn't *only* him and he's got a talented team working with him aswell) He helped created 2 awesome coasters....and a lot of medicore ones...enthusiasts waste far to many tissues thinking about him ;)...

^ Is thorpe a "theme park" then ;)

I live in sunnny weston super mare.... which is actually a complete ****ehole :| the area is overun by chavs, and has huge drugs and crime problems....and is falling gradually into disrepair, with Cafes and Hotels shutting by the dozen, and being repurposed into old peoples homes... the area...

Tidy. I'm not gonna lie, it will be a cracking addition to the island, all things considered, and I for one fully support the venture. Fair play. ;)

forpe <3 nah, Alton by a country mile...there really is nothing else on that scale here!! Although if I had to choose a park to go too tomorrow it would undoubtedly be Blackpool, because I have done Alton literally to death...but for a visitor to the UK, definitely Alton! :)

Arctic Monkeys were incredible :shock: cool) ended up missing the last train home to Bristol and spending the night in a proper grotty hotel/B&B near Victoria. :| All in all though....well worth it! :)

much, much harder...can't really compare it to RCT as the building system is completely free, as opposed to limited by coaster type and 45* angles (you could make a 400 ft, 150mph launched Woodie with fifteen loops if you wanted too) and the construction system is through a CAD style wireframe...

...clearly thorpe.... it haz a 100mph coaster that goez vertical and ****...what more could you want....and like this well scary ride that propper **** me up coz it's all made to look like the saw films.... Alton is 500% better than Thorpe. Fact.
