  1. Thanks for reminding me - I forgot to put that as my #1! Silly me! No question about it.
  2. I actually hate ranking my top 10. This will probably differ from the ones on my about me page because as I think about the ones I've been on, I rank them. 1. Millennium Force 2. Maverick 3. The Voyage 4. Magnum XL-200 5. Diamondback 6. Top Thrill Dragster 7. The Incredible Hulk 8. Flight of Fear 9. Expedition Everest 10. The Raven
  3. I contacted Fun Perks about an issue a week ago and still haven't gotten an answer, and I figured out the problem in that time. Fun Perks customer service definitely needs some work.
  4. My Fearsome Foursome Challenge: Diamondback, Beast, Firehawk, Vortex.
  5. I'm pretty sure that guy doesn't actually ride coasters as much as he says. How does "Best Structure' have to do with twists and turns? I thought he meant support-wise, how it looks, etc.
  6. I finally experienced my non-busy day of the year last week (I'm a bit late) with 15 minute waits for all rides, but Planet Snoopy was packed. And this was a...Tuesday? I'm having a serious mind blank. CoasterGeek, you here?
  7. For KI, they are just tearing down SoB for future expansion. They are not going directly into building a new ride. IF that were the case, Im sure they would put a webcam in, Why does that make a difference?
  8. I didn't level up but I finally got a free Thunder Alley ride. I really wish I spent more at the park this year - I only have about three visits left.
  9. Kings Island could easily set up a webcam on the Eiffel Tower and that'd give us great views of the demolition. Isn't Cedar Point doing that for Disaster Transport?
  10. ^How'd you get that Spoiler thing?
  11. Now that I think about it, don't we have a topic that asks the same question? Edit: Yup. http://www.KICentral.com/forums/index.php?/topic/25837-does-kings-island-need-a-new-wooden-roller-coaster/
  12. You really need to ride El Toro. Yes, I've heard about El Toro. Someday I really wish I could ride it, just to ride a smooth wooden coaster...oh, and ride Kingda Ka!
  13. It just hurts your head, that's really it. I love the ride. Not as rough as wooden coasters.
  14. Your reviews are a lot different than I'd expect - I've heard great things from Wildebeest, like best water ride, great airtime, etc. And Mammoth I heard isn't as good as it. Also, I would give Gobbler Getaway a 8. I loved it!
  15. At least one more. CoasterBob62.

    Soarin' was always my favorite ride, but I don't count it in my lists anymore because I haven't been on it since 2007. It gives me goosebumps, though! It's an amazing ride.
  17. 1. Transportation doesn't really take that long. But I can't really answer this question because I don't know how far your resort is from the parks; but my Hilton hotel was about 10 minutes from Magic Kingdom and the shuttle only took about 15, with several stops in between. There's a lot of traffic and then you have to pay for parking, also, you have to walk the long walk to the entrance from your car, so I would use the shuttles and if you want to, use the monorail from Magic Kingdom to Epcot (or vice versa) because it's very fast. 2. I would get a FastPass for that ride you really want to ride first thing in the morning. I got one for Space Mountain right as it opened and only waited 10 minutes for it, compared to the 70 minute. At Magic Kingdom, get a Fast Pass for both major coasters and if you want to ride a dark ride like Peter Pan, get one for that as well. Remember, you can only get one FastPass at a time, so use them wisely. At Epcot, get. a. FastPass. for Soarin'. I learned the hard way about not getting one last time. 120+ minute wait. Yikes! Use a FastPass for that right as you get there, and nothing else at Epcot is worth the FastPass. At Hollywood Studios, what I did was got a fast pass for Rock n Roller Coaster, then waited in line for Tower of Terror; by the time I finished that, my window was open for RNRC. I also used one for Star Tours because it gets very crowded and I waited 20 minutes opposed to 90. At Animal Kingdom, get one for Kiliminjaro Safaris, and that's about it. I like waiting in line for Everest, and Dinosaur never gets 30+ minute waits. Sorry for the confusing details there; if you have any questions about FastPass still, ask me. We used a lot of them on our trip! Edit: Actually, get a FastPass for Toy Story Mania. When I went, they were out by 1:00.

    My favorite out of all of them is definitely Tower of Terror, and in terms of dark rides (non-thrill), I like Pirates of the Caribbean the best. My favorite roller coaster is Rock n' Roller Coaster.
  19. Do people really think that it would go through it forward, then go through it backwards even faster? Sorry, but that's just stupid.
  20. I don't see anything that makes it look like it's going backwards..which video are we talking about?
  21. Nevermind, I found the videos. What really amazes me is they made videos for all the Planet Snoopy rides too!
  22. Hmm...I guess they're getting rid of Diamondback! Edit: I don't see any videos.
