    Actual holy ****... My thoughts go out... Really puts how we act when we get snowfall into perspective...

    BAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY!Oh... Sorry... He just looks retarded...My team atm all around lvl 40 faffing outside the 7th gym are........
  3. Then I'd say it's fair, but with a 2 person maximum... But that should be only for those who cannot walk unaided...

    Very sad times for the Pacific and Japan...Last time I checked there were about 26 confirmed dead... Hopefully that number won't rise to Haiti or Indonesia proportions...Let's just be glad really Japan have the economic strength to generally be prepared for earthquakes... Not saying for ones of this scale, as they are impossible to be fully prepared for, but this could be a lot worse...
  5. Old photo is OLLLLLLLLLD...You can tell by the coloured lava woodchips on the floor... I'm guessing that's a 2003 photo as well considering the site... Maybe 2004... Annoyingly, the page about Inferno is not in English... But here's the link anyways...http://coastersandmore.de/rides/nemesis/nemesis.shtml
  6. Double post, but meh, thought people would like to see this video someone sent to me of the park from 1990... Lots of emotions from this... Makes me wish I could go back to my first visit...
  7. No, you can go to Thorpe with as many people as you want, just only one person can come on each ride with you...
  8. Swear that's only in the Thorpe/Industry/Mania Hub sections...Sure Marc has said it's to prevent noobs spamming up the place with the same topics...
  9. Oh thank god that it's 5 again... Should be better value for all photopasses now if that's a company-wide scheme...Det photos should be amusing though... Wonder how that'll be done tbh because unlike Apocalypse the seating goes all the way around... Would be good if they were mid-drop similar to Ice Blast's launched photos...Where would they be gotten as well? In a cheap box like Jumbos/Runaway or in the Animal (or whatever it is now) shop next door?

    Not jumping down your throat really here, but you cannot really say for definite on your own personal experience which trains were better if you haven't ridden the old ones...Honestly though I cannot remember the actual riding or noise-making of the old trains, but they certainly looked the part... And based on how Big Bad Wolf and the other versions swing a lot more the actual riding bit was a lot better...I'd defo say the older trains are actually very comfy, and quicker to dispatch due to no seat-belts...I do like the floorless trains but would certainly prefer them to be actually themed... Never gonna happen though...Defo prefer the old trains though... Nothing beats the old memory of seeing it soar over the pathway as actual bats...

    About the only thing I like on that map is the way they've done Oblivion...However... Elsewhere it's a bit of a mess... I know it's not meant to be entirely accurate but...
  14. TESTING AHOY!http://www.ndr.de/regional/niedersachsen/heide/krake101.html
  15. It only seems to be a problem in the Storm Surge thread...Coincidence?

    Black is awesome... Love the rotation battles...
  18. That there be a promo image, defo not concept art...And dodgy photoshop strikes AGAIN!

    Party time for Vampy! Information taken from Coasterforce... And I shall definitely be there since Vampire will always hold a place in my heart as being my first coaster...

    It's the neck things... I'm at such a height where the thin-ness of them really smack into me and it's painful...As I said, I found Maverick rough due to the restraints...Those restraints don't corner well... Simple as... A ride's roughness can also be based on how the restraints handle... Even some B&M's are rough (usually stand-ups because they are appauling)... In fact, restraints play a massive part in the ride's comfort zone, why else would people say Vekoma's with the new system have improved drastically? Roughness is not limited to wheels and kinks and other stuff...
  21. Looks rather funky tbh and shows what CAN be done with RCT3...Shame I never finish my parks
  22. Benin replied to Dan9's topic in UK Attractions
    Corkscrew I had no real trouble with towards the end of it's life as I was complete above the top of the restraints... I don't, it's a vile ride, doesn't stop Rita being rough though... Only exceptionally bad and unrideable in the back... Unlike Rita... These vary a lot... I found Maverick rough, so obviously it is Intamin's fault... Again... And why go on about it when you then give a reason as to why I find it rough? Sense? Ridden both, Goudurix is NOT as bad as people say, and Stampida I rode before Kumbak came in, so cannot comment...However, just because THESE rides might be rough DOES NOT automatically make Rita not rough... That's foolish to think... Besides, all rides PALE in comparison to Mean Streak, so I do know what I'm talking about...
  23. No, because it's a game...I'm not gonna let silly little things like that ruin my life...
  24. I already have a set of them...They don't suck... They're a lovely bit of merch tbh...
