  1. Is that not for Colossus at heide?
  2. Out of respect I covered what Jack said, but it was very humourous and slightly worrying. Oh how we love Jack. 'This has been a very eventful conversation...' ~ Maxy Best. Skype Capture. EVER!
  3. On a serious note isn't TT's stuff just a load of potential bollocks? I mean they're just going on rumours and assumptions, and they could be completely wrong, again, like with the smiler? Either way 100% Pinfari wooden zacspin behind asylum studio 13 fence 2017.
  4. Nice! Find it ironic such a strong animal lovers would tell that one. Yeah my mate has told a variation of that before, difference being the dog was on the ceiling.
  5. I have been grounded for even longer now .-. Basically I am in an explorer unit and whenever we have jumble sales we sleep over in the hall for the night. Normally we don't actually sleep though, end up making it a mess, then tidy it up from 6am so when our leader comes it's as it was the night before. Now last night we made a bit more mess then usual. This was fine, we tidied it up to the quality we normally do but my mum was stepping in for our leader in the morning, and when she came she was not happy. A rough nights sleep I guess because she was a wreck before she even entered. Screaming her head off at everyone she matched about the hall not helping but just bossing us about, and moaning if it was not up to her satisfaction. She got so fed up that at one point she told me to piss off, so I took it literally and went home. In the short term it was about great idea but when she got back it was the same thing all over again. 'Why was it such a mess? You're a bunch of selfish idiots People put effort into that. I want to dip you in oil and burn you.' Allow me to just say the only thing I did to contribute to the mess was jump on a bunch of clothes and use them as a matress. I tried to tidy them up afterwards out of respect and organisation though. But apparently everything that went wrong there was my fault. I tried telling her I even left at one point because I didn't want to be part of the mess, but no, I have been grounded now until February for something I didn't even do, which means I won't be able to attend my own meet that I told her about a month ago, and my computers have been removed. Again. I'm not 13 any more jess bloody Christ. Ugh I wish I could just leave and live with just my dad.
  6. 1. Valhalla - I'm sorry but it was just such a stunning ride and the general contrast to the attention and immersion compared to the other rides in the park made this ride look absoluetly epic, and it was such a good ride! 2. Balder Dash - Just that pure air time! No seriously on the tallest hill the ride picks up so much speed I actually stood up. the restraints are one click fits all so I had about a 15 inch gap between me and the bar so I flew through everything. 3. Nemesis inferno - Mist. 4. Rita - Never got peoples problem with this ride.. Never found it rough, when I went it was pretty much my first rollercoaster with air time on it and it was so quick! (My first launched coaster too) 5. Revenge of the mummy - The effects were great, the rollercoaster part was also pretty cool, and it was nice to be such a good ride for the only coaster in the park. 6. Air - Again, such a fun ride, and it was the only ride my dad really enjoyed too. Did it 6 times in one day, just trying to do a superman all the way round. It shows things don't have to be tall, loopy or forceful to be good. 7. Grand National - Again as said above. The competitiveness aswell just adds to the experience! 8. Vampire - It seems to swing more/get more intene each year. I love it because of it's wildness but probably would've preferred it with the original cars. 9. Saw the Ride - I clearly remember my first ride on it. Sure it's rough and tumble but it's very fun and thrilling. 10. Rage - Fun! And it has a cute lil wheel squeak too. (Rush would be number 3 but because this was just tracked rides I left it out)
  7. Got any stories about yourself which are particularly spooky? How about paranormal experiences you/friends/relatives have had? It's nearing Halloween and rather then plodding along to a scare attraction we should just scare each other here! (If we can .-. ) I go camping regularly, its just a cheap way of being able to go out with friends that don't necessarily go to college with me every so often. The main stories we tell each other are repeated pretty much annually, and are either: Click Click Slide Inside out Small squares Pins and needles Of course a couple others are thrown in but these ones our are favourites. I got some 12 year old's crying to small squares once Anyway, my actual experiences of paranormal activity happened in my house and in my local war bunkers. I've been to many places with ghost sightings. When I was younger my parents used to take us to a different castle every month or so. Alot of these (including Dover castle and the tower of London) had a huge amount of ghost sightings, but I was never effected. Also, my local church had 2 reported deaths in it (I believe... It's at least one) But a choir boy and the reverend had intercourse, the choir boy was raped and then suicide and the reverend hung himself on the bell chord when the news spread. Most that's ever happened in that church is an organ key playing itself and creaking behind me on the stairs. I never go to these places alone though, I have a notorious fear of anything slightly creepy or jumpy (I don't do horror mazes, dungeons, scare walks and these days am reluctant to visit places with ghost sightings alone). Lets get to the stupid point jeezus. The first paranormal sighting I had was when I was 6. It's the most clear memory I have, because I was so creeped out. My local war caves (called Chiselhurst Caves) were built mainly for the war, but upon building they found some old caves they reckon to be over 750 years old. I can't remember exactly when but it was a good couple hundred years ago, a wife and groom went down there the day before their marriage and the groom chopped of his fiancées head into a pool of water. Since then the older section of the caves have been 'haunted'. Now I wouldn't believe it if someone said they saw a ghost, even though, I truly think I have. We were walking along the side of the walls like we were trying to keep in the shadows or spy on something, and then I look to the far wall and see a human female figure in a white dress poke out from round the corner of the wall. I gasped, blinked, and it was gone. It was so shocking I remember it so clearly. This wasn't even the worst part for me, I then went to the pool where she was beheaded and we were told to stare at the far wall of the pool, about 20 metres away. I stared and was shaking after what I thought I saw, and after a few seconds I felt breathing on my back. I didn't look round or else I thought I'd see the figure again, so just stood there straight, all tensed. And then I heard a female voice sing gently 3 notes, creating a minor chord. I started shivering and then the tour guide jumped out in front of me and I flew out of my skin. For anyone wanting to know extra, that area of the caves has been known for the lady of the pool. 100 years ago or so, the company who owns the tours down there set up a challenge to see if people could stay the night by the pool. Hundreds tried, all but 2 failed. 2 Policemen stayed the night and said they were haunted by the ghost who demanded them to leave. Oooh god thinking about the graffiti they drew on the wall gives me the shivers. Two girls aswell tried to do it, and disappeared. Went down in the night and by morning they were gone, but all their possessions left. I don't think they were ever found. So that's my story! I you have any spooky stories at all, please share them here!
  8. That's been tried on a different forum before and it ended up being chaos. People who weren't selected in them got mad, and people who didn't become the best card got mad, and people with ratings they didn't agree with got mad. Basically, the only person who was not mad was the creator, and then he got mad becuase people got mad at him. Just doesn't work if you get personal like that.
  9. I'd need 10 people and the cost would be between £3- £7... It all depends on designs and stuff. I don't do online banking so I'd have to rely on meeting up with people at a meet. This could work but the cheapest place I could find which do custom ones with logo's costed £100 for 30. (Would be about £3.50 each to cover postage aswell)
  10. I honestly think Wristbands are a good idea. If people wanted I'd get looking for some websites where they let you do custom designs cheaply.. In fact, if they do become popular I guess I could design some (this is a huge maybe as I'm as consistent as an Intamin) and possibly buy a bunch? Would you want the fabric ones or the rubber ones though?
  11. Ugh not one of those things?! I mean yeah they look a bit of fun but the circuits are so long and the amount of closure they have due to passenger illness is ridiculous, and all backs up into long waits.
  12. I did the one in Blackpool with these guys but still found a couple of the scenes get to me. Aaaand by the sounds of things the london's version of them is a lot scarier.
  13. Really? No, really? Well mate, you need to head to busch gardens as they're making a ride that goes all the way round america! http://www.theonion.com/articles/busch-gardens-unveils-new-9600milelong-endurance-c,36691/ And here's the layout.
  14. What we can confirm is that there'll be a full helix and a banked turn with a small hill surrounding the queue line, there will be a vertical drop, and a small tunnel. These are some specs released by B&M (I believe) Height: 37,5 m Tunnel: 7,5 m deep Top speed: 90 km/h Also, here's a slightly better picture of the final part of the layout and queue plans. (source from RCTland, Dutch RCT fansite)
  15. I'd be the only one to post in it I think. I'm aware CoasterDude and some other members play the game but trying not to be big headed, are unable to document/present their work! Of course, I'd be willing to help people with the simple things. I'm sure if people started posting stuff like I do we could get a games & Arts section for minecraft, No Limits, RCT3, Photoshop, graphic design, photography... You name it, it could be all in a neat organized place! Thanks for your comment <3
  16. I should be able to do any of these as my grounding stops on December first. Not like it's serious anyway though. Put me down as a yes (but might wimp out of the dungeons if others too don't want to)
  17. pognoi

    Slammer

    The first time I rode it was this year, and I have rode it loads! But I've always found myself slipping out of my shoulder restraints on the second cycle. I know they're just there for re-assurance but it is not reassuring when you can just flop out of them part way through the ride.
  18. Damn! Cameron we need to arrange a meet possibly with people who want to go to fright nights but don't want to do the mazes (as much as it misses the point xD)
  19. Ugh buses are terrible. Unless you're on them, then they are hilarious.
  20. by my friend Silvarret, I work with alot... I just filmed it for him as I now have a better graphics card. So I'll be doing this for all his coasters until he gets a better PC and gfx card. Enjoy!
