Rate Random Coasters the RCT Way

I just thought of this. Just give a rating on a coaster based on the Roller Coaster Tycoon way, but give it your version.
Rating system:
1-4 (low)
4-6 (medium)
6-8 (high)
9-12 (very high)
12-15 (extremely high)
15+ (uber-extreme)
Ratings:
Excitement level
Intensity level
Nausea level

Here, I'll start with 5 coasters:
El Toro:
Excitement Rating: 11.5 (very high)
Intensity Rating: 8 (high)
Nausea level: 3.5 (low)
Kingda Ka:
Excitement Rating: 9.5 (very high)
Intensity Rating: 12 (very high)
Nausea level: 4 (low)
Alpengeist:
Excitement Rating: 9 (very high)
Intensity Rating: 9 (very high)
Nausea level: 5.5 (medium)
Loch Ness Monster:
Excitement Rating: 7 (high)
Intensity Rating: 6 (medium)
Nausea level: 4 (low)
Rolling Thunder:
Excitement Rating: 4 (low)
Intensity Rating: 6 (medium)
Nausea level: 6 (medium)

P.S. The numbers for the ratings, I'm guessing the ranges for high/verhigh/medium/etc. Those are not the real levels.

I think Loch Ness Monster would have a higher intensity level.

Actually, in RCT, the rating system is more like this:
Low - 0 - 3
Medium - 4 - 5
High - 6 - 7
Very High - 8 - 9
Extreme - 10 - 12
Ultra-Extreme - 13+

Okay, here's my version of Wicked Twister:
E - 6 (high)
I - 5 (medium)
N - 1 (low)
I don't see why people think this ride is interesting. The impulses before it were way better.

And my home park, Adventureland:
Underground
E - 1 (low)
I - 1 (low)
N - 1 (low)

Dragon
E - 4 (medium)
I - 13 (ultra-extreme)
N - Do head injuries count as nausea?

Tornado
E - 5 (medium)
I - 7 (high)
N - 3 (low)

Outlaw
E - 5.5 (medium)
I - 7.5 (high)
N - 4 (medium)

Son of Beast looks too intense for me.

Millennium Force was great!

I'm not paying that much for an on-ride photo of Goliath.

I want to go on something more thrilling than Corkscrew.
