This thing is too easy with so few drafters. We should make it with 15 again next time!

I pick Kraken - praised the world's best floorless by many who have ridden it.

Thanks for not reading through the whole draft pages coolbeans [:p]

With 12, as long as they all stay in which is what should happen, everybody gets to be first in a round once. With more than 12, it takes months instead of weeks. In theory, it could take 15 days to go through one round.

it's to bad we can't agree to go online on a certain time and everybody just keep hitting the refresh untill we've got a round done, that would make it go pretty fast i'm sure

No problem. I really wanted a steel sit down more then a floorless. Although with Wildfire, it might as well have been floorless seeing as how your feet don't touch the floor anyways. But yes, its a really good pick. Of the 3 I've been on, its far supurior. I like it almost as much as kumba, although I've got an extremely warm spot in my heart for the latter ride which is why I prefer that one over kraken.

^personally, having ridden non of the B&M loopers (I sure will!) Wildfire has always been my favorite one of them off it's look. 150+ straight first drop, endless terrain, unique trains, almost achieving the floorless feel yet with a more elegant look, great western feeling, ... [worship]

^And really short. Kumba has a more 'out-of-control speed and intensity' feel while Wildfire has a more "wee, loops and gs" feel.

I'll take Hydra The Revenge

Ok, I've only been on one floorless, but it was amazing. I'll take Superman / la Atracci?????????n de Acero - http://www.rcdb.com/id1366.htm

What I love about this ride is the straight drop, that provides awesome airtime in the back, the perfect floater camelback, and the array of unique turns.

^ good pick, I really like the design of that ride a lot.

Whoever gets that "other" floorless is surely going to get a steal.

I pick Comet at Great Escape. A Woodie with great history.

[shocked] How long are you going on like this... I never thought of picking that way... You're definitely gonna get a lot of votes from woodie fanatics (like me)! All you're missing is an Intamin prefab...

I think the next user knows that it's his turn.

Haha, it would make me laugh to see hyyyper miss a turn. After telling everyone else their time...

Its all part of the master plan [:P]

Might be difficult to find a park location with a fitting fancy rock wall [;)] But good pick. Seems like this is the floorless round... Strange, we didn't have as clear general "picking-lines" in any draft before.

Round #8 has begun.

Woodie Man has until 4:34pm 07/22/06 to pick.
