I had an idea the other day...I'm thinking about making some polls. A website I like does a "Tournament of Logos" for many different sports leagues, so I was thinking of doing a TOL for coasters.

FORMAT: We would have 2 divisions...American and National. 10 logos in each division at random. We go for maybe a week or so and you vote for your favorite logo of each division. At the end of the voting period we take the top 4 or so from each and then they each "play" a logo from the other division in a playoff format. Eventually we will get to a final match-up and have a "Best Coaster Logo" winner. Thhis would be just the logo and not take the ride into account at all, so if we have Mean Streak or SOB logo, just because the ride isn't great doesn't mean the logo isn't cool.

Let me know if you think this is a good idea...we could do a couple of these and have maybe a Tournament of Champions once we have enough winners.

Those would just be like a way to split the divisions. Like in basbeall there is the American League and National League...we could call them whatever...red and blue...black and white...Levitra and Viagra...w/e you want...the division names don't mean anything it's just a way of splitting them up.

A coaster that does about nothing and has ramp hills and usually no airtime.

Well if we do several editions, we will just do random logos and maybe the winner can go into the next edition to try and defend its title and eventually come to what we think is the best coaster logo.

So I think the first edition will go like this.

Red Division:
Prowler, Sky Rocket, Nitro, Raven, Mean Streak, Big Bad Wolf, Hydra: The Revenge, Titan, Superman: Ultimate Flight, Wild Thing

Blue Division:
Blue Streak, Ghostrider, Phoenix, Storm Runner, Tatsu, Dueling Dragons, Maverick, Medusa, Talon, Beast

I think this is how it'd work...2 polls and people vote for lets say a week, then we take top 4 from each and match them up for the playoffs.
