The Six Degrees Of Cedar Point!

Well, you know how the 6? of Kevin Bacon works right? Well, what if we tried it with cedar point? For example, if it was The Beast, it'd be easy:

The Beast was built designed by the Dinn Corp.
The Dinn Corp built Mean Streak.
Mean Streak is in Cedar Point.

You can say anything coaster related (Togo, Markey, 0g roll) and then the other person has to relate it to Cedar Point in 6? or less(the example was 3?, FYI). I'll start:

Ed Markey

Ed Markey is an idiot.
Idiots still find themselves visiting amusement parks.
Cedar Point is an amusement park.


I had a go at that, but I still was not completely sure how this game works. Maybe a more detailed explanation or was my answer following the game format? But the idea for this thread is nonetheless interesting...


Next word : Trim brake(s)

Well this is how the 6? of Kevin bacon works if it was, say Peirce Brosnan:

Peirce Brosnan was in The Thomas Crown Affair with Rene Russo
Rene Russo was in Ransom with Mel Gibson
Mel Gibson was in What Woman Want with Helen Hunt
Helen Hunt was in Cast Away with Tom Hanks
Tom Hanks was in Apollo 13 with Kevin bacon

so you could say like,
Dodonpa was made by S&S Power
S&S Power made Power Tower
Power Tower is in Cedar POint

-gravitas, as defined by dictionary.com is "Substance; weightiness."
-Some enthusiasts are pretty gravitas about coasters
-coasters are cool
-trees keep people cool with shade
-People cast shadows which are shade
-Cedar Point has people

Woo! That was a dumb way to connect things and I bet I got the word wrong in the sentance.

Next word: vertiginous (this one's easy)
