See how long I stick with this before getting annoyed at people just voting for what they've ridden over clearly better rides.

1: Lightning Rod, Dollywood

Haven't done it, but has to be better than Fluch

65: Silver Star, Europa Park

Not going to win over an RMC, but I've done both and genuinely preferred it.

32: Soaring with Dragon, Hefei Wanda Theme Park

Hate to see Parrot Coaster knocked out so early, but against SwD there's no chance.

33: Wood Coaster, Knight Valley

Haven't done Icon, so basing it on other smaller Mack coasters.

16: Flash, Lewa Adventure

I can't see ANY wingrider being better than Flash

49: Atlantis Adventure, Lotte World

The Xiamen Jungle Trailblazer is poor

17: Fury 325, Carowinds

Haven't done either, still an easy choice

48: *Mack Blue Fire Clones

I like these clones more than most and found Powder Keg very mediocre

8: Outlaw Run, Silver Dollar City

Jungle Dragon is excellent, but can't see it being better then Outlaw

57: Dinoconda, China Dinosaurs Park

Because duuuuurrrrrrr.

25: Wonder Woman Golden Lasso Coaster, Six Flags Fiesta Texas

The Batman clones are arguably a more solid coaster, but I'm sick of them.

89: Anaconda, Gold Reef City

Mako looks great, but I preferred Anaconda over most B&M hypers I've done. It's got no chance though.

9: Wicked Cyclone, Six Flags New England

Haven't done either, but based on similar rides.

56: Goliath, Six Flags Over Georgia

Horrible to choose between these two, but want to give Goliath a fighting chance (not happening)

24: Expedition GeForce, Holiday Park

Farens**te


88: Eejanaika, Fuji-Q-Highland

Haven't done either, but an easy choice.
 
1: Lightning Rod, Dollywood
LRod just looks a lot more exciting, though I seriously considered giving this one to Fluch, purely due to the LRod's extensive downtime periods (there's more to a good coaster than just a good ride experience and it's sad to see it spites quite so many people).

64: New Texas Giant, Six Flags Over Texas
Silver Star is a bit too inconsistent to be put higher. Haven't done NTG, but it looks better.

32: Soaring with Dragon, Hefei Wanda Theme Park
Intamin launcher vs B&M Wing Coaater? Easy choice.

33: Wood Coaster, Knight Valley

16: Flash, Lewa Adventure
(might I remind you to put an asterisk next to this one? There's now a clone in Turkey)

80: Jungle Trailblazer, Oriental Heritage Xiamen

17: Fury 325, Carowinds

48: *Mack Blue Fire Clones

121: Jungle Dragon, Happy Valley Chongqing
It's 99% sure going to lose, but this GCI looks way too good to get such a low seeding

57: Dinoconda, China Dinosaurs Park
X2 is still my 3rd fave coaster, so an easy choice.

25: Wonder Woman Golden Lasso Coaster, Six Flags Fiesta Texas
Not a fan of the one Batman I've done

89: Anaconda, Gold Reef City
For a bit of diversity

120: Storm, Etnaland

73: Phoenix, Knoebels

24: Expedition GeForce, Holiday Park

88: Eejanaika, Fuji-Q-Highland
Tough one, since I've heard a lot of good thing about Twisted Timbers, but Eejanaika is a 4D, so... ;)

Might I add a bit of a suggestion for the competition (I know it's probably a bit late to implement it this year), but I think it would be fairer that users that have done both of the coasters, somehow mark that and then their vote would count (more) in an event of a tie?

64: New Texas Giant, Six Flags Over Texas

32: Soaring with Dragon, Hefei Wanda Theme Park

96: Icon, Blackpool Pleasure Beach

16: Flash, Lewa Adventure

8: Outlaw Run, Silver Dollar City

57: Dinoconda, China Dinosaurs Park

1: Lightning Rod, Dollywood - My Number 2, so unless it comes up against Steel Vengeance it will win.
65: Silver Star, Europa Park - NTG looks to be one of, if not the worst RMC, and I loved Silver Star so I'll go with that. Tight tho.
32: Soaring with Dragon, Hefei Wanda Theme Park - Looks incredible, and I'm not a fan of the Wingriders generally
33: Wood Coaster, Knight Valley - Genuinely think this looks better than Icon(not ridden either)
16: Flash, Lewa Adventure - On my hitlist, which means it looks great! Fenix also looks good but I'd much rather ride Flash.
49: Atlantis Adventure, Lotte World - Not ridden either, but the Aquatrax is a ride I want to ride, and Gavin dislikes the other choice so...
17: Fury 325, Carowinds - Still in my top 10, amazing ride, significantly better than it's opponent
81: Powder Keg, Silver Dollar City - Liked this, slightly more than Blue Fire
8: Outlaw Run, Silver Dollar City - Another top 10 ride, easy choice
57: Dinoconda, China Dinosaurs Park - Would much rather ride this, looks brilliant
25: Wonder Woman Golden Lasso Coaster, Six Flags Fiesta Texas - Intrigued by the new RMC offerings, and the back looks bat**** crazy
40: Mako, Sea World Orlando - Heard great reviews of Mako, tough decision but I want this, quite the fan of the hyper type
9: Wicked Cyclone, Six Flags New England - Easy choice, while not the greatest RMC, it's still an amazing ride
73: Phoenix, Knoebels - One of my favourite woodies with a very rare experience with the buzz bars
24: Expedition GeForce, Holiday Park - Still one of the best first drops in the world imo
41: Twisted Timbers, Kings Dominion - I haven't done either but knowing my love for the RMCs, this would likely be my fave of the 2.
 
1: Lightning Rod, Dollywood
No ****, Fluch isn't even in the same class, let alone competing.

65: Silver Star, Europa Park
I loved this last time I rode, and whilst NTG was great, I don't remember loving it.

32: Soaring with Dragon, Hefei Wanda Theme Park
Sadly haven't Parrot Coaster, but Soaring is great. Probably a pretty close one I'd say.

33: Wood Coaster, Knight Valley
Icon looks goos, but come on.

113: Fēnix, Toverland
I want to say Flash, but Fenix just gave me so much joy.

80: Jungle Trailblazer, Oriental Heritage Xiamen
Aquatrax!!! Nah, the woodies look better.

17: Fury 325, Carowinds
See the first one, Wild Eagle ain't even close.

81: Powder Keg, Silver Dollar City
I like the Blue Fire clones, but Powder Keg is awesome.

8: Outlaw Run, Silver Dollar City
Gotta give it to the OG.

57: Dinoconda, China Dinosaurs Park
Pahaha, no way Gold Striker is even close.

25: Wonder Woman Golden Lasso Coaster, Six Flags Fiesta Texas
RMC Steel? Yes.

40: Mako, Sea World Orlando
I'm sure Mako is better than Anaconda.

120: Storm, Etnaland
I bet Storm is better.

56: Goliath, Six Flags Over Georgia
Phoenix is good, sure, but a B&M is better.

24: Expedition GeForce, Holiday Park
I do like Fahrenheit, but EFG is the superior coaster.

88: Eejanaika, Fuji-Q-Highland
S&S 4D, obviously.
 
1
Novgorod shouldn't be anywhere near the top 128 in the world.
65
RMC without a bit of their extra spice doesn't look as good as what I know to be a very good ride.
32
Love Parrot, Dragon is better.
33
Easily the hardest for me here. Love Icon, sort of hate Wood Coaster for spiting me twice and from what GCI have been doing to me these days, it could disappoint. But it shouldn't.
16
Love Flash, wings are hit and miss.
49
Re-emphasis on the fact that Xiamen has by far the weakest Jungle Trailblazer.
17
Got neither, based on type.
48
Love the many Blue Fires, other thing looks more interesting than amazing.
8
Wasn't that fussed about Jungle Dragon in the grand scheme of things.
57
Only done 1 GCI that's better than Dinoconda, so odds aren't great.
25
Looks mental, batmans are hit and miss.
40
Got neither, could go either way, nicer colour?
9
Based on similar models, the RMC is probably better.
73
Looks more my style.
24
GeForce is cool, Fahrenheit looks like one of those Intamins that isn't quite all there.
88
Tough again, not a huge amount that could beat Eejanaika, but that thing probably could.

Thanks for changing Fjord!

Edit: thought I'd stick some justifications in, as everyone else is.

WOO - one I've done both for!! 24: Expedition GeForce, Holiday Park
Not done either but 41: Twisted Timbers, Kings Dominion
 
1: Lightning Rod, Dollywood - It’s overrated but obviously better than Fluch
65: Silver Star, Europa Park - This and NTG are exactly two places from each other in my rankings, but SS narrowly wins
32: Soaring with Dragon, Hefei Wanda Theme Park - Not done either of these, but from my experience Intamin LSM’s are usually better than B&M Wing coasters
33: Wood Coaster, Knight Valley - Not an easy one as Icon is really good and I don’t know how Wood Coaster is running these days, but it just looks more impressive.
16: Flash, Lewa Adventure - Pretty easy; always love a modern hyper coaster!
80: Jungle Trailblazer, Oriental Heritage Xiamen - Atlantis Adventure looks quirky and fun, but I think I’ll go with the GG.
17: Fury 325, Carowinds - EASY, how has Wild Eagle survived in this poll this long?
48: *Mack Blue Fire Clones - I love Powder Keg, but I love Blue Fire more
8: Outlaw Run, Silver Dollar City - Yeah, this coaster is too good to vote against with a GCI
57: Dinoconda, China Dinosaurs Park - Gold Striker is great, but I’d wager Dinoconda is top class
25: Wonder Woman Golden Lasso Coaster, Six Flags Fiesta Texas - Looking forward to trying the California one out later this year
40: Mako, Sea World Orlando - A fabulous hyper, though it would be cool to ride Anaconda
9: Wicked Cyclone, Six Flags New England - Storm is one of the last major European coasters left for me to ride, but I’m not THAT hyped and Wicked Cyclone is fantastic
73: Phoenix, Knoebels - God, I love both these coasters a ton, but Phoenix is top 10
24: Expedition GeForce, Holiday Park - My favourite European coaster is an easy win here
41: Twisted Timbers, Kings Dominion - ****, this was a hard one. X2 being my #2 would suggest that Eejanaika would place extremely highly, but TT is my #4 and I can’t vote against something so high in my rankings.
