Your B&M Count

[emoo]

How was #12 for you? I thought it stood out uniquely in a great way but so rarely hear it mentioned.

[OrionBack Timbers]

I’m a new coaster enthusiast, so I haven’t ridden a lot. Ranking them, though, they are:

1. Diamondback (lots of great floater, decent forces)
2. Leviathan (decent ejector, super speedy)
3. Orion (same as leviathan, just less airtime)
4. Banshee (super smooth, great inversions, extremely intense)
5. Incredible Hulk (super duper fun and intense, just wish it was smoother)
6. Behemoth (good airtime, has a rattle though)
7. Yukon Striker (big inversions, boring ending)
8. Valravn (very fun, just doesnt do it for me like yukon striker)
9. GateKeeper (fun, bad ending)
10. Rougarou (pls retrack the second half :/)

[davidm]

Since everyone is bumping this thread (again)...

88 now (the +1 being that French Monster earlier this year)

(8.06% of my count, 69.29% of B&M coasters)

Since everyone is bumping this thread (again)...

93 now

(the +5 being Rapterra, Big Bad Wolf: The Wolf’s Revenge, Iron Menace, Candymonium and Orion earlier this year - and not recounting Nemesis (obviously))

8.13% of my count - a slight improvement then.

(Realised my previous stat of "all B&M coasters" did not correctly take into account defunct ones and I've probably double-counted Dominator/Batman Knight Flight too - oh no that's probably only 92 then. Artificially inflating my count, the shame of it all)

For some reason I forgot about Candymonuim. The best new-to-me one I've done as well

 

[HeartlineCoaster]

114 now apparently.

To back this up I figured it might be fun to do an alternative list of those that I haven't ridden. Turns out that that 120 includes 2 under construction and the 2 dormant HotGo ones I've looked at from a taxi, so the to do list is sitting at 25 right now:

Batman The Ride - Six Flags Over Texas
Behemoth - Canada's Wonderland
DaVinci Ride - Fantasy Valley
Decepticoaster - Universal Studios Beijing
Diving Machine G5 - Janfusun Fancyworld
Dragon's Run - Dragon Park
Emperor - SeaWorld San Diego
Falcon - Wuxi Sunac Land
Family Inverted Coaster - Happy Valley Beijing
Firebird - Six Flags America
Flight of the Himalayan Eagle Music Roller Coaster - Happy Valley Beijing
Forest Predator - Happy Valley Nanjing
Georgia Scorcher - Six Flags Over Georgia
Goliath - La Ronde
Goliath - Six Flags Fiesta Texas
Great White - SeaWorld San Antonio
Heaven's Wing - HB World
Hot Wheels Nitro - Imagicaa
Insane Speed - Janfusun Fancyworld
Leviathan - Canada's Wonderland
Monster - Gröna Lund
Superman Krypton Coaster - Six Flags Fiesta Texas
Superman - Ultimate Flight - Six Flags Over Georgia
Vampire - La Ronde
Yukon Striker - Canada's Wonderland

That makes 7 in China, 5 in Canada, 4 in Texas, 2 in Taiwan, 2 in Georgia (both spiters!) and 1 each in California, India, Maryland, Sweden and Vietnam.
Which might just tell me where I'm due to go next.

Forgot how silly I used to go with this stuff.

To do list update:

DaVinci Ride - Fantasy Valley
Diving Machine G5 - Janfusun Fancyworld
Dragon's Run - Dragon Park
Emperor - SeaWorld San Diego
Goliath - La Ronde
Hot Wheels Nitro - Imagicaa
Insane Speed - Janfusun Fancyworld
Pipeline thing - SeaWorld Orlando
Penguin Trek - SeaWorld Orlando
Phoenix Rising - Busch Gardens Tampa
Big Bad Wolf thing - Busch Gardens Williamsburg
Wrath of Rakshasa - Six Flags Great America
Big LEGO Coaster - Legoland Shanghai

Scary.

 

[Burniel]

Mine's a bit low, but it'll do for now. I have 14, here they are in alphabetical order:

Air, Alton Towers
Dragon Challenge (CF), Islands of Adventure
Dragon Challenge (HH), Islands of Adventure
Incredible Hulk (V2), Islands of Adventure
Kraken, SeaWorld Orlando
Kumba, Busch Gardens Tampa
Mako, SeaWorld Orlando
Manta, SeaWorld Orlando
Montu, Busch Gardens Tampa
Nemesis, Alton Towers
Nemesis Inferno, Thorpe Park
Oblivion, Alton Towers
SheiKra, Busch Gardens Tampa
The Swarm, Thorpe Park

Was surprised when I saw the icon to say I'd participated in this before, turns out it was in 2016! What an ungrateful ambitious kid I was, thinking 14 B&Ms was "a bit low" for a teen.

Managed to bump that up to 21 since getting back into the hobby a couple of years ago:
15. Mandrill Mayhem, Chessington World of Adventures
16. Black Mamba, Phantasialand
17. Pipeline The Surf Coaster, SeaWorld Orlando
18. Penguin Trek, SeaWorld Orlando
19. Phoenix Rising, Busch Gardens Tampa
20. Baron 1898, Efteling
21. Silver Star, Europa Park

 

[I_love_coasters]

So, there's currently 95 operating B&Ms across the Planet, and I'd like to know how many of those everyone has done!

We haven't had a bragging topic in a while and I have a spreadsheet that allows me to answer easily - 70.

With any luck I should be adding ten more to the list this year - Mako, new Hulk, Flying Dinosaur, Acrobat, Diavlo, Hollywood Dream, Pyrenees, Baron, Oz'Iris and Monster - to take me to 80.

Then my biggest vendettas to polish off will be Six Flags Great America's casual four and the three in Italy. UGH!

I want to hit 100 but they need to build a few more first!

Dude, that is A LOT of coasters. HOW DID YOU LIST ALL OF THEM

 

[Hixee]

[Will]

Over the weekend, I added Candymonium, Great Bear, Iron Menace, Hydra, Talon and Batman.

To my surprise, Candymonium was the best of them.

Bringing me to 54

Cheers, Spite-tro...
