Re: Top 10(ish): 2014 Edition
I've hit a few parks this year, time to see where it all lays now:
1) Voyage
2) X2
3) Dominator
4) Skyrush
5) Boulderdash
6) Incredible Hulk
7) Griffon
8) Maverick
9) Storm Runner
10) Verbolten
11) Roar
12) Ravine Flyer II
13) Great Bear
14) Alpengheist
15) Goliath @ SFoG
16) Green Lantern: First Flight
17) Flight Deck (KI)
18) Phantoms Revenge
19) Twister
20) Diamonback
The more I ride Skyrush the more enjoyable it becomes. I305 jumps up mainly due to the fact that it gave me a first in my coaster goonery; I greyed out finally! Dominator just reminded me just why I loved it so as well. Griffon was fab and Verbolten always got me to freak out a bit in the building no matter what.

Re: Top 10: 2013 Edition
I just didn't know where to put it. If I was basing my judgement purely on the ride I had then it'd be top 5! The problem I have is I know that Beast was only that good due to it being a night ride. Plus, I secretly really enjoyed Raging Bull
So yeah, for the record, Beast is top 5 material judging it purely on the night ride I had. But I can't warrant putting it that high knowing it's only that good at night.

Bizarro moves into my top 20 because of its consistently good rides throughout the day, and not to mention its absolutely bonkers airtime going into the zero-g roll when it's running in top form. Cyclone is gone from my top 25 because it is simply **** now. GCI retracked all the good bits out of it so there's basically no air time in the ride anymore and they left all the rough parts in.

Maybe I got a good run. There had been thunderstorms for days and it was still raining when I went on it. That's all I've got to base it on though. It was a total onslaught!

Re: Top 10(ish): 2014 Edition
Never really got round to doing this properly. I've had a good long think about this today. Some of my top 10 has been changed a bit getting rid of a few and welcoming a few.
1. Air - Alton Towers
2. Nemesis - Alton Towers
3. The Swarm - Thorpe Park
4. The Smiler - Alton Towers
5. The Big One - Blackpool Pleasure Beach
6. Dragon's Fury - Chessington World of Adventures
7. Oblivion - Alton Towers
8. Stealth - Thorpe Park
9. Shockwave - Drayton Manor
10. Avalanche - Blackpool Pleasure Beach
11. Nemesis Inferno - Thorpe Park
12. Big Dipper - Blackpool Pleasure Beach
13. Th13teen - Alton Towers
14. Colossus - Thorpe Park
15. Rage - Adventure Island
16. Revolution - Blackpool Pleasure Beach
17. Vampire - Chessington World of Adventures
18. Rattlesnake - Chessington World of Adventures
19. Cliffhanger - Blackgang Chine
20. Skyways - Clarence Pier
21. Wilde Maus XXL - Winter Wonderland
22. Cobra - Paulton's Park
23. Sonic Spinball - Alton Towers
24. Nickelodean Streak - Blackpool Pleasure Beach
25. X - Thorpe Park
I have 92 creds and I discounted 26 coasters as '+1s' leaving me with 66. This is the top 25.
I, infamously, had Nemesis in 4th. I have decided to move it up to 2nd. The Swam and The Smiler were ahead.
My reasoning:
The Swarm is a very good coaster I maintain but it only has one exceptional seat for me. Front, right, outside seat. The rest of the seats are very good/good so for this reason it is coming down to third.
The Smiler is also a very good coaster but you just don't get the thrill that you do from Nemesis and Nemesis is much more re-ridable so for that reason the Smiler drops down to 4th.
Creds in bold are new for me for 2014.
It'll be interesting to see what this looks like when I get back from Florida in a couple of months and hopefully Port Aventura if I can get there when I go to Spain.

Helix was a fantastic coaster. The only negative I found was that the launches were very weak, but as there is so much more to the ride than the laucnhes, it barely impacted on the otherwise exceptional ride. Realistically, I don't think Liseberg could have built something much better.
I actually rode Boulderdash 3 years ago, but only once and while it was good it didn't blow me away. However, when I rode it again yesterday, I managed to get 7 rides in, which meant I got a much better feel for the ride. It's a brilliant ride that has a relentless pace and basically has all the great features of intensity, laterals, airtime in abundance. The only thing that stops from being a top coaster for me, is that I do feel that it is fairly rough around edges and some of the transitions were a bit uncomfortable, but definitely nothing unbearable.

Re: Top 10(ish): 2014 Edition
After going to Oakwood today there's been a bit of a mix up in my top 10, thanks to my first wooden coaster!
1. Oblivion - Alton Towers
2. Megafobia - Oakwood
3. The Smiler - Alton Towers
4. The Swarm - Thorpe Park
5. Stealth - Thorpe Park
6. Nemesis - Alton Towers
7. Shockwave - Drayton Manor
8. Saw: The Ride - Thorpe Park
9. Dragons Fury - Chessington
10. Rita - Alton
An odd list, but the top 7 are rather close to each other. For somebody with only 32 creds I think it's pretty reasonable.
