Summer 2006 Coaster Draft: Park Write-Ups

[hyyyper]

not really, but i'd rather had some of them

Round #10 has begun.

I pick Mantis.

Pad has until 2:44pm 08/1/06 to pick.

I pick something that, surprisingly, wasn't even picked in the last drafts, even though it's "THE" racing woodie in the world IMO. Coming right from the true Golden Age, built in 1935, this ride delivers of what some Britons say that it's the best ejector air they've ever experienced.

Grand National from Blackpool Pleasure Beach!

Another ride I thought of maybe picking for this round.

I think I'll go with Powder Keg.

coolbeans has missed it... or Jim... [;)] whatever, I hope he doesn't miss one more.

Time to start round 11, Jim! And no need to TOOOT, hyyyper [:p]

[hyyyper]

^damn, you beat me to it, but this was beanies 4th miss, so he's out

^that sucks, I thought it were only three but it was actually the fourth miss already [V]

Round #11 has begun.

coolbeans326 has been disqualified for missing four rounds.

Pad has until 11:05pm 08/07/06 to pick.

I had a fun little fight with dcs in the last draft on which I was trying to convince all readers that Revenge of the Mummy Hollywood was only slightly inferior to the Florida version.

As I found out later, this is really not true

The Florida version appears to be A LOT better. Some differences include: -Much more elaborate theme part (duration 4 minutes, opposed to 2 Minutes; 2200 feet of track opposed to 1800). -Launch is 45????????? upwards instead of flat. [launch][peakhill][:D] -Real fire effects, not artificial fire.

Hence why I pick the Florida version this time [;)]
