Looks like cjd missed. Next round will be up in a bit.

...the f***? I never even knew my group was up... not a single person posted it. I know it's technically up to me to check, but seriously, at least some sort of post would have been nice. I was on here last night but had no idea that the last group was done or that my group was up.

Edit: I searched the pages, and Tetsu has Manta at SWSD.

Front page should probably get fixed, Hyyyper.

I'm sorry you missed your turn, but I am working 12 hours shifts so I can't be online all the time. Besides, I think if you see that players from your group are posting their picks in a good enough sign that it's your group's turn.

Lol, this is seriously the first time something like this happended.
Usually the players check which coasters are picked or not, and if they don't check, the other players (especially the one who picked the ride first) speak up.
Anyways, cjd picked Manta first, so Tetsu's pick becomes invalid.

EDIT: Front page is fixed now, after that I checked for duplicate rides and there were none.

When I was online (about 7:00 last night,) only jdmi had selected, and this was the first time that he had been in my pick group so I didn't realize it. Again, it's my bad for not paying attention, but still... murg... I thought I was going to have a legitimate shot at winning this thing with the coasters I had so far, but now it's looking really questionable since I'm only going to have 6 coasters.

Tetsu actually picked Manta for the San Diego Sea World. Both picks are valid. Also, I don't see the fix on the front page? Still shows both players as having the same coaster at the same park.

Yes Tetsu and I talked about that one the podcast that he picked the SD one, so both picks are fine.

Do you think it would be possible to up the number of rounds to 10 or 12 since 1/3 of the people were DQ'd and the game seems so short this year?

The number of rounds is not only low because of the time or number of players. It also requires you to really think what you pick because you only have 8 spots.

However, if more people feel this way, I might add some rounds. I'll get back to you guys on this when this round ends.

Coaster @ Playland PNE

Extreme airtime plus single position lap bars and no seat belts equals you standing in the car because of the airtime equals awesome.

Hopefully I'll be getting Kumba's bigger, badder sister coaster, "Dragon Khan" @ Port Aventura. That's my #1 pick. If not, I'll take "Aplengeist" @ Busch Gardens Williamsburg.
