Screamscape is right about 50% of the time. The news is usually old. I find out info quicker by going to coasterbuzz. Then, about two days later, Screamscape posts the news that coasterbuzz already had.

"I think Top Gun's days are numbered and I look to see it gone by 08, if not sooner." Vortex is older than Top Gun, so it would be removed before TG. And, Vortex isn't going anywhere any time soon.

That was the point. There was no voting for anyone else.

Yeah, I did misunderstand what you were saying. SF failed miserably at trying to take on CP.

"Mod edit: I decided the Cuban election process wouldn't work on this one. Made yes and no options." You mean the last Iraq election before we invaded. If you remember it was between Saddam and not Saddam.

"Yeah--it certainly worked great for Six Flags taking on Cedar Point by buying Geauga Lake, huh?" First off, Cedar Fair bought Geauga Lake, not Cedar Point. CP is one park in the chain, the flagship park. You can't gauge what's going on with GL yet because they had one month to get GL ready last season, so, really this is their first full operating season. Not only that, they have to erase years of negative publicity and bad word of mouth that Six Flags created over how ever many years that they were in control of it. Not even the almighty Paramount Parks could have completely turned GL around after such a short time.

^Uhhh, two miles an hour is not going to make any significant difference. For the record, Delirium and maXair are the exact same ride. The only difference is one spins clockwise while the other counterclockwise.

^It is the only Giant Top Spin in the world. And, probably the last too if Huss doesn't figure out how to keep them going with less problems and better programming. On the other hand, Texas Twister is not a Giant Top Spin, just a regular Top Spin.

"Anyway I don't care what PKD is getting because I know I will never go there." So, why waste everyone's time with your useless post? We don't care what park you aren't going to visit.

^Absolutely correct, sir! Not that I would mind seeing a B&M at PKI!

^He couldn't hook up in a whorehouse.

^This coming from a guy who claims to be the hottest guy on PKIC yet is too chicken to post a pic in his profile. What a loser.

Believe me, none of us know when height and speed will no longer be possible. I think the process of height and speed records being broken so quickly will slow down, but not stop.

"They can't get higher, they can't get faster" Sure they can. What makes you think coasters can't go higher or faster? No one thought that the 200feet that Magnum XL200 had would ever be broken. Now look...you've had Millennium Force, Steel Dragon 2000, Top Thrill Dragster, and now Kingda Ka, all separated by a mere few years. Maybe you won't see the records broken as often, but nothing suggests you can't go higher or faster.

Aeon Flux, a.k.a Charlize Thereon. Brilliant actress and gorgeous to boot!

^Wow, you're just brilliant with your posts, aren't you player? Back on topic. It does look cool to me. I would love to give it a try.

A Vs. thread for an identical ride? Talk about redundant. The only difference is one spins clockwise while the other counterclockwise...and paint scheme.

Player, you're full of it. I guess you need to be updated to what everyone else here has known for a couple of years now. PKI is out of the coaster race and are concentrating on family rides and heavily themed rides. Welcome to the next century.

"So, if SixFlags can come up with the money, why can't Paramount Parks?" In case you hadn't noticed, Six Flags is over their head in debt. They are finding it harder and harder to come up with capital spending money. Is this the way you want PKI to go?

Funny. Some of the things are already there. But, some of it sounds new.

^Or, it could be the Tilt Coaster that was Top Gun.

How about a track record showing all of the coasters we have been on? You would put it in your profile. F5, I think it's been suggested about the RCT/No limits exchange and it was decided that it would take up too much bandwidth, I think.

With B&M's and Paramount Parks, here's the real question. Why is it that PGA and PC are the only parks with B&M's installed? Not to mention that they both have two of them.

I think Face/Off is a great coaster, just horrible capacity. I try to ride it every time I'm there. The only reason I won't is if it is more than a half hour wait. I think F/O is a pretty intense coaster even though it's short. I have a friend who always panics when you come out of the station backwards up the lift. I don't think it's fair to compare it to a full circuit B&M inverter. A fairer comparison would be an impulse coaster like Wicked Twister at Cedar Point.

It is one of my goals to visit PKD. It looks to me like you guys have a pretty good selection of coasters. And, even though I've been on FOF, I would have to ride the one over there since it is one of my favies at PKI. I have heard the rumor that PKD will be getting a new coaster next year. I'm guessing one of the Top Gun coasters in the last survey.
