The per capita figures are the most useful I think. Asia has like 60% of the world's population and China (and India) are developing so quickly, it doesn't surprise me at all to see huge base numbers there. Whereas Australia (really Oceania) is only about 0.5% of the world's population. I'm...

Went on this today! It's phenomenal! The hangtime on the loop and especially on the last two elements is unreal. Just a really fun, really solid family thrill ride all around.

I was at Kentucky Kingdom the day of the S:TOP accident and I rode S:TOP not four hours before it happened. I was also at Geauga Lake the day Raging Wolf Bobs derailed (and subsequently never reopened). On the happier side, I was accidentally at Valleyfair the day Steel Venom opened to the...

10s - New Texas Giant & Leviathan 00s - Kingda Ka & Maverick - indicative of the monumental shift in focus from record-breaking to pacing, speed, and intensity. IMO the defining moment of the aughts was actually the Cedar Fair purchase of Paramount in 2006. 90s - every single B&M built from...

This is in early access now! I've been playing and it's so good. It's still pretty bare bones but it's so so so promising.

I'm kinda nostalgic for the old Cedar Point website from like 12 years ago with the little animated skyline in the banner.

y'all are truly so negative and jaded... take a walk... it's just a roller coaster, almost everybody who rides it is gonna love it.

That's not really relevant at all as they are completely different and unrelated games that have literally nothing to do with each other. There are clearly some gameplay similarities between RCTW and Skylines (path-building mostly) but that doesn't mean anything substantial at all. City builders...

RCT2 is $9.99 on Steam and you can play it today and it's probably a better game than RCTW is going to be. Also I've just seen that Cities: Skylines is on sale for $14.99 right now so PSA if you don't have that it's an amazing game.

I tend to think that any one coaster that did everything perfectly "right" would feel overwrought and confused. This is sort of the problem I have with Voyage - everything it does is great, but it's too much for one ride. I guess I'm saying one of the defining qualities of a "perfect" coaster...

Re: What was the most/least substantial year of roller coast 1999 was almost as big as 2000 (if not bigger). Apollo's Chariot, Raging Bull, Gwazi, Afterburn, SROS @ Darien, Powder Keg, Steel Eel, Tremors, the original Medusa, Bandit, Twister @ Knoebels, Georgia Scorcher, all of Islands of...

Re: What's next for RMC? New Concept Coaster (page 4) Yeah that's the only problem I had with Outlaw Run. It's magnificent and then you hit the brakes and you can't move your legs until they dispatch the next train.

1. Lightning Rod (quad down................................. please.........) 2. Wildfire (enormous, wow, omfg) 3. Valravn (great lookin ride for a great lookin park) 4. Monster (a decent coaster for a park that desperately needed it, also Adventureland was my home park for 7 years so vested...

I guess of the cute little descriptors you've written up I'm mostly a Park Enthusiast. I just really love amusement parks. :) I like how they look, I like going on rides, I like hearing and seeing people having a good time. I'm fascinated by the demographics of amusement park guests and the...
