    if someone misses their 24 hour period, does their pick get moved to the end of the entire draft, or the end of this round? because if it is moved only to the end of this round, can it be after I get two picks in a row, instead of in the middle?
  • Wanted%s's Photo
    It's at the end of the entire draft. MorganFan, you missed your pick which means you only get 12 hours per pick now.

    djbrace1234 messaged me with his pick- Tennessee tornado @ dollywood

    I select Griffon @ Busch Gardens Williamsburg

    I'm in the mountains right now so I have no wifi. When I get back in range I'll update the OP.

    This one's for you Cocoa!


    Superman Escape @Warner Brothers Movie World
  • AK Koaster%s's Photo
    Steel Force @ Dorney Park

    My favorite coaster in my home park. Smooth, all about air, and also quite fun to operate, and even climb the stairs every once in a while to help with opening checks, which gets you a beautiful view of the park.

    How is the winner determined? Is it a popularity thing or do we all just rant about it and dream about a park that has someone's 8?

    Some very good ones left still:

    Steel:
    Behemoth @ Canada's Wonderland
    Diamondback @ King's Island
    Top Thrill Dragster @ Cedar Point
    Kindga Ka @ Six Flags Great Adventure
    Tatsu @ Six Flags Magic Mountain
    Medusa @ Six Flags Discovery Kingdom
    Kraken @ Sea World Orlando
    Mindbender @ Galaxyland Amusement Park (West Edmonton Mall)
    Olympia Looping @ (Travels Germany) - Doesn't have an RCDB!?!?!?!?! Has a Wikipedia page though!
    Incredible Hulk @ Universal Orlando
    Superman: Ride of Steel @ Six Flags America or Darien Lake
    Flight Deck @ Carowinds
    Intimidator @ Carowinds
    Volcano: The Blast Coaster @ King's Dominion
    Steel Dragon 2000 @ Nagashima Spa Land
    X2 @ Six Flags Magic Mountain
    Titan @ Six Flags Over Texas
    Nitro @ Six Flags Great Adventure
    Raging Bull @ Six Flags Great America
    Raptor @ Cedar Point

    Wood:

    Colossus @ Heide Park
    Shivering Timbers @ Michigan's Adventure
    Raven @ Holiday World
    Cornball Express @ Indiana Beach
    Hades 360 @ Mt. Olympus Water & Theme Park
    Cyclops @ Mt. Olympus Water & Theme Park

    New Mexico Rattler @ Cliff's Amusement Park
    Thunderbolt @ Kennywood
    Jackrabbit @ Kennywood
    Viper @ Six Flags Great America
    Terminator @ Six Flags Magic Mountain

    Now most of these make sense but SEVERAL OF THOSE ARE SERIOUS OMISSIONS GUYS, and I probably forgot at least a half-dozen more that are better than most of your 2nd round picks! ;)/>

    if steel force is anything like mamba at worlds of fun, I'm sure its really great. mamba just has such an amazing hyper coaster feel to it, or maybe I'm just being nostalgic.

    btw, superman escape was just... good. I would never have thought to pick it, it's just not very interesting to me.
  • Austin55%s's Photo
    Even then Ride6, there are still a bunchhhh of mostly smaller asian coasters missing of that potentials list. The Megalites probably don't have a lot of draftable quality just yet as they are clones, but they are gonna be HOT picks once the top "unique" rides are gone.
    Also, some people don't want to pick a ride to similiar to what they might already have, regardless of how goood it is.



    I've been basing my picks heavily on the Mitch Hawker Poll. That's why I went with Superman, actually, being that it's 21st in steel and the 2nd highest intamin launched coaster. I had been very seriously considering Storm Runner and TTD. I wanted projekt Helix, but it's a 2014 opener :(/>

    Maybe this has been said already but this draft could be really cool with accolade winners.

    Whilst I may sound like a dick, but posting a list of what hasn't gone yet is kinda annoying.

    I mean I'm not after any of those listed, but I'd be kinda pissed if I was, and was hoping people had forgotten about it so I could sneak it in, to have a list posted and every remember about it.

    Sorry ride6 :p
