You & me both, brother.

Anyway, I only bother to rank my top 25, so here they are as of now.

1) I305 - Kings Dominion
2) El Toro - SFGAdv
3) Millennium Force - Cedar Point
4) Griffon - Busch Gardens Williamsburg
5) Nitro - SFGAdv
6) Apollo's Chariot - Busch Gardens Williamsburg
7) Alpengeist - Busch Gardens Williamsburg
8) Maverick - Cedar Point
9) The Incredible Hulk - Islands of Adventure
10) Kingda Ka - SFGAdv

11) Top Thrill Dragster - Cedar Point
12) Storm Runner - Hersheypark
13) Thunderhead - Dollywood
14) Hydra the Revenge - Dorney Park
15) Skyrush - Hersheypark (I may perhaps have slotted this one a bit lower than it deserves, but my opinion is only based on a few rides and I just didn't like the restraints at all.)
16) Goliath - SFOG
17) Dominator - Kings Dominion
18) Kumba - Busch Gardens Tampa
19) Montu - Busch Gardens Tampa (these two are hard to rank because I haven't ridden them in nearly 10 years, so I just lump them together)
20) Talon - Dorney Park
21) Afterburn - Carowinds
22) Fahrenheit - Hersheypark
23) B:TR clones - SFOG & SFGAdv
24) Lightning Racer - Hersheypark
25) Intimidator - Carowinds

If all goes as planned by the end of 2013, there should be some RMC hybrids and other new odds & ends scattered about this list.
 
Re: Top 10: 2013 Edition

1. Voyage
2. Toro
3. RFII
4. Bizarro
5. Phoenix
6. Skyrush
7. Boulder Dash
8. Leviathan
9. Beast
10. Top Thrill Dragster

I know some of my choices are odd (Beast), and I'd definitely have Maverick in there assuming the last time I rode it was on a good day. It needs to redeem itself :p .

I actually enjoyed it quite a bit.. if it just didn't have that damn trim.. which takes all momentum out of what could have been the best airtime hill on the ride and the last bit which was actually quite good when I rode it when they trimmed the drop.

It's a victim of being too intense really.
