It's a quite night in Zelaron Land.
 
As I took another gulp of my Barcadi Watermelon cooler I looked around the room and notice I was all alone.

All alone... I thought to myself. It's like I'm a ninja. I could do whatever I want right now and no one would know, just like a ninja. Maybe that one from Metal Gear Solid. He kicked so much ass, I mean c'mon reflecting bullets with a fucking sword. Thats like Jedi shit.
Momentarialy distrupted from my Jedi ninja dance of death by a...

Interesting....

Adrenachrome 2005-07-16 02:02 AM

Well I was out getting drunk. what's your excuse?

Mantralord 2005-07-16 07:05 AM

It's a QUIET night in Zelaron land. Quiet. QUIET. Not "quite."

Kaneda 2005-07-16 07:23 AM

Ah because that would be quite, as in those briefs are quite becoming on you Mantra.

HandOfHeaven 2005-07-16 09:01 AM

Hey look, it's hitler!

Ganga 2005-07-16 11:23 AM

na he's too fat to be hitler, probally an american.

Thanatos 2005-07-16 12:20 PM

Because all Americans are fat, right? I guess that's better than having a small penis, bro.

Grav 2005-07-16 12:25 PM

He has that British look to him, honestly.

Besides, American schools can't afford chalk.

Mantralord 2005-07-16 12:32 PM

What's wrong with being fat anyway? We're all gonna die in the end anyway.

Kaneda 2005-07-16 01:47 PM

But being fat lessens your life experience.

I've been in Alton Towers for 12 hours...reading Harry Potter for 6...sleeping for 2...and stuck in traffic for 3. This is the only hour I get of free time today...

I like the way that the thread turned from on-opic to off-topic in less than three posts.

The world is only 3 posts away from being off-topic...

Grav 2005-07-16 05:23 PM

You're the one with the huge face and broken jaw!

Kaneda 2005-07-16 06:10 PM

Oh ya Alton Towers, I know exactly where that is. I use to have a second uncle twice removed grandfather of my aunt's niece that live not 100 kilometeres from there. Bless his/her soul. ;)

HandOfHeaven 2005-07-16 07:23 PM

You want to bless their shoe?

Lenny 2005-07-17 07:24 AM

Have you ever been??

It's a weird theme park...or at least seems weird to me. I've grown up with Blackpool (only about 50 miles away) so am used to the rides all being right close together and the park being all concrete. Yet Alton Towers is more like some kind of park with rides dotted here and there.

JRwakebord 2005-07-17 10:11 PM

I was away at the Lake for the weekend, what's YOUR excuse?

Kaneda 2005-07-18 05:54 AM

No, actually.

Lenny 2005-07-18 10:11 AM

You ought to go. It's a great place. And some of the rides!! We've got some wonderful pictures of me coming off rides with my hair all over the place because of the speed.

Look at these videos of a couple of the rides we went on:

Air (bad quality - also doesn't give a great idea of the speed): http://www.towerstimes.co.uk/interac.../aironride.htm

Nemesis (again doersn't gave a good idea of the speed): http://www.towerstimes.co.uk/interac...os/nemesis.htm

Spinball Whizzer (not the greatest of videos): http://www.towerstimes.co.uk/interac...ballonride.htm

A zip file of Air, Nemesis and Oblivion: http://www.themeparkreview.net/alton.zip

Watch them...they're not the best but they are pretty good.

Oblivion is fucking amazing when you are on it.

Sovereign 2005-07-18 10:27 AM

Those aren't roller coasters :-\.

These are:

http://www.cedarpoint.com/public/ins...ill/magnum.cfm

I wish I had rode them in order :-\. Went from Millennium Force -> Top Thrill Dragster -> Magnum.

Lenny 2005-07-18 10:33 AM

Yeah but you live in America for christs sake. The land of supersized everything.

I live in England. You don't get many world record breaking coasters here. And we just don't have the population to go building hulking great things that need hundreds of millions of visitors a year so the owners can have the money to maintain them.

Sovereign 2005-07-18 10:36 AM

Go ride them -.-

Take a family trip!

Hope top thrill makes it over the top and doesnt fall backwards ^.^

Adrenachrome 2005-07-18 10:41 AM

I was going to go to Ceder Point with my cousin, from Astubula (spelling..)

But I had more important things to spend that dough on. Dude honestly I'm not entirely sure I'd get on top thrill...

Ive been on the Drop Zone in Kings Dominion (tallest freefall ride in NorthAmerica) I fucking hate it. They got one like Top thrill but its like 0-80 and it doesnt spin on the way down..

How is top thrill? too intense>?

Sovereign 2005-07-18 10:51 AM

Here's a brief run through as how I remember it.

You load up 2 cars at a time.

The first car gets pulled out to a stopping line.

There are 8 lights ont he 420 foot tall tower , put in groups of 2.

They flash YELLOW YELLOW YELLOW GREEN

Within 4 seconds you are accelrated to 120 mhp, and not to long again you hit a 90 degree lift hill. You make I think a 45 degreen turn and you have hit the top. Here there is a chance for it to get stuck (where it will take a few mins for them to get someone up there to actually push you down. This rarely happens), or it will fall backwards in whcih they would rehook you up an launch you again.

At the top the train slows down for a second or two. THIS IS YOU CHANCE to look around. shortly therafter you fall down vertically again and do a i think 145 degree turn

You hit 120 mph yet again as you hit the straight away where you break, make a turn, then hit station.

The ride is probably no longer then 8-10 seconds but it is AMAZING.
