Grrr this is definitely NOT my round...

Now I gotta think. sorry guys but my pick and all of its 3 alternatives have now been taken. I'll pick tomorrow morning and edit it in this post.

EDIT: I'll take Oblivion @ Alton Towers.

It might be short, but I think the vertical drop is more intense than the ones on Sheikra just because it was the first one and everything was built around it, including a lot of great scenery and the whole "Don't look down" stuff. A legendary ride!

@ Dirk: I've ridden the Winja's last summer and I loved them, the first drop really got me shocked as I went backwards first ride [peakhill] Then I especially love the tilting stuff. But why did you need it? You already had a tilt coaster and a sort of a spinner (halfpipe). [}:)] j/k.
BTW, don't you get both Fear AND Force? There's not much dueling, but some for sure, and these two just belong together... [:D]

I'm really loving that ride, the first drop is soo awesome on that one and then you have a nice floater over the first hill [8D]airtime![8D]. Also this is the longer and more fun side of the track. Everytime when I rode force i'd really though it was way too short.

I'm probably still taking both even tough you don't notice anything about dueling then from the outside of the ride [lol] It would make the ride complete, imagine a fear track without force. Doesn't look too well [lol]

Are you giving up your spot? You can still be in it. You haven't missed two rounds consecutively.

Ummm... temple of the night hawk? [confused] Now, its smooth, and a good kiddie ride (with a good jungle station), but definitely a lot more tame than the winja's.

@ Dj Tommy, no problem man... although very probably no one will take your spot now as the game has progressed a lot already.

hey jim, ive gotta question, it says on the main page that the draft will continue until everyone has 12 coasters. so, does this mean, we send you are park pick after round 12, or wait till all rounds are over?

If you picked a coaster each round then yes you would end up with 12 coasters. After the twelth round, everybody will send me their information on their parks and I will arrange them. When the parks are posted in the voting forum, the user-name will not be displayed, only the park and its information. This way, the voting will solely be based off of the parks qualities.

Each draft member will have to vote.

IF YOU ARE CAUGHT TELLING PEOPLE TO VOTE FOR YOUR PARK, YOU WILL BE DISQUALIFIED IMMEDIATELY!!!

I'll take Colorado Adventure from Phantasialand, a ride that is very similar to Thunder Mountain of Disneyland Paris with comparable theming and a slightly shorter though more intense layout(IMO).

It's after round 12 (or maybe jim will set a starting time for sending the info, then it's a bit later), even if not all people have 12 coasters.

Yes they can, if they desperately want to. But I'm positive there are a lot of users actually willing to decide on park, not user. [:)]

Good pick - I've ridden both. Actually, Colorado's theming is quite lacking, esp. in the tunnels, there's just nothing... not so on big thunder mountain! However, you're right that it's more intense, I got alot of good drops, even with some backseat airtime [:)]


EDIT: extra post made for next person.
