Milestones in Your Counts

[nadroJ]

Do you not count kiddie coasters Slash or do you just not go on them? Looking at your coaster count there's a few of the smaller ones you've missed from the Orlando pakrs.

When you go in September be sure to ride Shamu Express, it's awesome. Also don't forget there's the Woody Woodpecker thing and Barnstormer in Magic Kingdom. They all add up =]

My 100th coaster was Dragon at Camelot.

30: Oblivion, Alton Towers
40: G Force, Drayton Manor
50: Kraken, SeaWorld

How are you guys counting?
Are you counting each coaster ride, or each different coaster?
Regardless...can't remember back over 30 years as to how many rides or coasters. Sure some of them are closed by now anyway

Most people use coastercounter.com

They just tick the boxes and go with it.

I count "ride layouts". So even if I've been on 20 Big Apple coasters, I just count it as one.

There are several reasons for this.

1. All Big Apples ride the same (same can be said for most coasters).
2. It can be difficult to follow coasters sometimes. Is it the same ride as was already somewhere, and should you then count it or not if it's just moved?
3. You can have the smug upper hand in an argument over counting coasters
4. This is because people take counting coasters too seriously, I pretend to by doing it this way - it's a very subtle joke.



I got the Clifton Park kiddie coaster as my 100th unique layout coaster! Hurray! We celebrated with Burger and Ice Cream! Yum!

We didn't actually celebrate

I did not even hear you say it was your 100th.

Well at least we were in suits for it, probably the smartist I have ever been riding a coaster lol.

Voyage was my 100th woodie.

In a different kind of milestone, I re-enlisted on Hades. I find the pictures of me riding in my dress uniform pretty funny looking.

 

[furie]

150th unique coaster was... Apollo's Chariot at Busch Gardens Williamsburg! Hurrah!

200th Coaster Count coaster was the same!

My 100th was the unique suspended intamin coaster Tornado at Sarkanniemi.

 

[rollermonkey]

It feels like I'm making no progress at all from #925 towards #1000.

Great stuff furie. loefet & 10WaTT! I feel your pain Chris. It must be difficult as all get out once you get up to those kind of numbers. I can't wait until the Live to make some progress with my count again.

My 100th was Gemini at Cedar Point. I was trying to make Top Thrill Dragster my 100th, but it was down and didn't want to risk missing credits forthe sake of a memorable 100th.

I worked out earlier my 400th should be the Giant Dipper at Belmont Park <3


And despite earlier denial, I stand a reasonable chance of hitting 450 this year <3
