2005 Match-up Contest (Round 2) - RESULTS pg20

i guess it will be a rocket and an inverted for the next two rounds.

I don't see why it would be an invert. What inverted coaster opened or is opening this year?

Silver Bullet @ Knott's Berry Farm

That opened last year.

There are 3 inverted coasters that open or opened this year.
Vekoma SLC would be an option for example.

Buster.

yeah cjd, why cant the next round be a motorbike? one is opening this year somewhere in Europe or Asia i think.

Results will be posted within 5 hours. I have 8 coasters left to rate, and 3 pairings to resolve. (The battle between jpecool and MF2001 is really driving me crazy...) In any case, you all will be seeing the results before 7:30 tonight.

sorry bout that CJD [:p][lol]

Good luck MF2001. It was a really hard pairing. Well done on your coaster, it was great. And well done to everyone else too. [:)]

Silver Bullet opened in December... It was not open for the 2004 coaster season, so it counts. I base my coaster opening schedule on the summer season.

It did open in December, and was part of the 2004 season.


EDIT - Oops, must have looked over the part in which you said you based your coaster opening schedule on the summer season.

yes but its still new. Maybe we will see a motorbike like someone said, as one is opening here at flamingoland a couple of hours from me. [:D]

Yeah it is new, but cjd is basing the contest track styles on whats opening (or already opened) this season.

Wait, but wasnt the last one based on Hades?? That hasnt opened yet

this press release says it would open spring 2005

Yeah. Hydra hasn't opened yet either, but they both will open for the 2005 season.

yeah, so is the motorbike at Flamingoland. Its supposed to be opening in june i think, although it wont cos they havent even started steel work yet!

Sorry... I've never ridden a motorbike coaster, so I wouldn't know how to rate them. That's why it wasn't on my list of possibilities.

Rocket or Invert, either one, I'm fine with, They're my 2 favorite track types, but rockets are easier to build with because you can basically just go wild with them, and do w/e you feel like.

UPDATE: I am going to need more time to resolve the ratings. I finally resolved the pairing between jpecool and MF2001, but now I have run into an even closer call, between coaster992001 and ragan. I hope that McFly vs. pdonahue won't be so darn close. This is getting ridiculous. Well, that's my situation. 2 pairings (4 coasters) to go. I'm guessing that the results will be up at about 9:00.

sorry cjd for ruining your night [devilish]

Who said anything about "ruining" my night? I like all the coasters so much that I can't decide between them.

The idiots down the hall who play their music on full blast with the door open just to annoy everyone are ruining my night more than rating some coasters.

when i met that, i meant that I, coaster992001 and others made it so you couldnt wake up tomorrow with a hang over.

but now i guess tomorrow you'll wake up with sore eyes and a bent wrist. and a hate for whatever their playing down the hall.

I don't party on Fridays... I always just sit in my room and watch TV or listen to music. Also, I'm not old enough to drink, and I don't intend to even when I get old enough. So, aside from taking everyone's money at the poker table, this is the most exciting thing I have done on a Friday since coming to college. (No sarcasm, I'm serious.)

Yeah, cuz you like to party on Saturdays! Wooo!!!!

lol.......

Not unless watching cartoons and designing coasters counts as a party...

3 coasters left to rate, by the way.
