Top 10's
1 - Nemesis (Alton Towers)Do I need a reason?2 - Revenge of the Mummy (Universal Studios Florida)Awesome mixture of dark ride and fun coaster... Extremely re-rideable, proven by me doing it 10 times in a day... 3 - The Beast (Kings Island)Nom, 6 minutes of pure increase of speed... And when night comes, it becomes something completely different...4 - Tonnere de Zeus (Parc Asterix)Ton of Air... So much airtime... So much fun...5 - Top Thrill Dragster (Cedar Point)Serious awesomeness just oozes from TTD... Looks bloody massive, sounds bloody loud, and rides bloody amazingly... One of the only coasters that made me nervous AND then proceeded to make me hyper for 30 minutes...6 - Expedition G-Force (Holiday Park)In hindsight, this may be the one that doesn't deserve it's place, but I really enjoyed it tbh... Must have hit it on a good day...7 - Megaphobia (Oakwood)Yay Welsh Wood... This is brilliant fun... A lot similar to Tonnerre in some respects... Added points for sheep living next door...8 - Duelling Dragons : Ice (Islands of Adventure)I much prefer Ice (or whatever version it is now) to Fire... Though again, this could easily change as haven't been on it for years...9 - Kumba (Busch Gardens Africa)The only B&M sit-down on the list, and it just rocks... It's classic B&M awesome, with g-forces coming out of the wazoo and a brilliant layout...10 - Phantom's Revenge (Kennywood)The big suprise really... Absolutely stand-out for the second drop and outrageous amounts of airtime recieved in the final legs... Great fun...

Some of us are stupid enough to waste student government money to do that AND a Italy trip

Rant
My topic wasn't for posting random things, but for Mudkips (and other Pokemon related imagery)... And it's not stupid...

Rant
People are quite generally idiots (and much worse)...Best thing to do is either ignore them or report them... Not sure what you're referencing to fully here, but when you posted THAT picture in the Mudkip thread it was mainly a "OMG IT'S A BIEBER! KILL IT!" reaction, and kinda didn't fit into the point of the topic (which is of course, to post lots of Mudkips)...You just gotta tell people to shove it sometimes...If someone 5 years younger than me is having a pop at me, I'll have a pop back, because quite frankly, they get what's coming...So in short, smack the gits...

Ride 12- Air
Air I feel is vastly under-rated in the coaster community...It's not brilliant, but it is very solid and I definitely prefer it to Tatsu, which hurt a lot...A good rating here...

Even though this will probs get ignored, let's not forget Raptor...Why is September so far away?!

Sharkbait Reef - AT Sealife
Considering what happened to the original two, I would say the conversion needs to be slightly bigger if they're having 12 of the buggers...

Sharkbait Reef - AT Sealife
Might as well put the news in here as it's for 2011, someone needs to change the topic title though... Something fishy about this tbh...

Disneyland Paris Trip
Post a proper TR dammit!

Musicals
Even if it isn't about these days (at least I don't think so, need to check), I'm gonna say the Producers was also awesome...Spamalot was ok... But not brilliant...Avenue Q is Avenue Q, especially when it's the last London show...

Parks, Rides And Coaster News
Quite simply, Alton should be shown that video and told to pull their fingers out and build something like that in the valley...Thing is, we'll need one of the other parks to take the 'risk' of wooden coaster first before Merlin realise how stupid our GP are...

Just... Wow... WANT!!!

Oblivion
Yeah, but at least those two rides are actually one and the same... In fact, the only differences to those without much knowledge are the colours, Ug Swinger, and the lack of giant helicopter...

Tussauds... Recycling stuff since 2002...That was funny...

Europa Park
^That is tres nom...It's making me think really hard about going to Hamburg instead of Europa...
-
Football
Any football fan can (and should) feel saddened about something like this, regardless of who they support...It really changed that era of United, being Bubsy and all that...I may as well add, 50 million and doesn't even play 90 minutes on his debut? Lol...

Disneyland Paris Trip
If you can, get to the Studios about 45 minutes BEFORE it's 10am (if it's still that) opening time...That way, when they let people in at 9:30, you can go straight to the Crush queue and hopefully miss out a 90 minute queue... Of course Playland will make a difference but I'd still plump for Crush first... Then hit up Playland...Aside from Crush, the only other main coaster that will have a massive queue is BMT, so fast-pass all the way...Space Mountain is ok... I don't find it THAT bad apart from the back row...Rock n Roller Coaster is awesome... Do that a lot if you can...Try and see Cinemagique and/or Animagique... Both are really good shows and actually make you able to spend a day in the Studios...For the Magic Kingdom, if you wanna do stuff like Peter Pan and Dumbo they WILL have the longest queues... Small World's queue varies wildly so you can probs just wait that one out...Staying on site also means Magic Hours in Kingdom... If you can, use them... You get Discoveryland and Fantasyland so that's several majorly busy attractions you can do before the park gets REALLY busy... And allows good set-up positioning for Frontierland...
