Sorry woodie that isn't a really good pick... I've ridden it, and it gets some nice speed in the end, but is Waaay too short. I've ridden a bob that was a lot nicer... Still, it's a fun idea to include one of these, so good job on originality - I was wondering if even anyone would pick a bobsled [:D]

^Certainly not a park that already contains coasters, otherwise the draft would be pretty pointless. But as far as I've understood, you can take a picture of an old park, like featuring a ferris wheel and stuff, and use this as a base - you don't have to though, it can also be just a landscape. Right like this jim?

But isn't it like when i pick a pice of death valley, that my park is not an entrance with 12 coasters?

i suppose that the ferris wheel, merry-go-rounds and food/drinks will come with the coasters

Sure, you won't get coasters only, but flat rides, stands, scenery etc. also if you build your park where nothing stood before.

LOL I like jim's translations too (only really got the german one though).

If you picked to build at a park, it would be as if that park was never there. You are the first park in that spot.

The translation in American reads 'Coasters are better ridden while receiving head.'

I pick Mr. Freeze at Six Flags St. Louis.

no one in this year's draft is shallow enough to do that, well, i take that back, there are some people here who would do that, but it's pointless to take the other half of someone's dueling/twin coaster. i honestly think it should be in the rules that you are not allowed to do that.

perhaps we can do in the next draft that if you pick a double coaster, that it'll take you two turns, like i pick DD and next round i must pass

not many people will want to do that then, and only then like 3 or 4 drafters will actually do that. its a tough topic to discuss, because people would be split around 50/50 on it. ohwell, we'll worry about it next year :P
