The Ultimate Forum Game-Now Started!

[maXair140]

Purpose: This is basically an elmination game. There will be three rounds, and some will be elminated each round. The last person remaining at the end of the game will be the winner!

Directions: We will start with Round 1.

Round 1: Each player will be given a coaster. (Scroll down for yours). You must find out the coaster's park, height, speed, and capacity. (Easy, just go to rcdb.com) Then you must find one interesting fact about it that is not on rcdb.com. This is a speed round. The top fastest people will remain in the game. You can post your answers here, as you will all have different coasters.

Round 2: You will have to take a coaster quiz. The top 3 highest scores will remain in the game for round three!

Round 3: Surprise round!
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Alright, here are your coasters! We are now starting. Read the directions for Round 1 if you forgot what to do. Now, no more new people may sign up. Good luck!

Fact: At one time there were signs along the lift telling you how high you were. They are no longer there and were rumored to be taken down due to strong winds from a blizzard a few years ago. It takes 44 seconds to reach the top of the lift.

Is there a time limit?

[maXair140]

Well, I guess you could say there is a time limit. The last two people to answer (or not answer) are out. Also, I probably should have mentioned this before, but if you don't answer by Friday you are automatically out. On Friday night/Saturday morning we will begin Round 2.

Looks like willski2002 and magunm_man1989 are out then. And I guess we can start Round 2 early! I will post the quiz as soon as I can. For Round 2, you don't have to be quick, you just want to have the best score. 2 people will also be eliminated this time.

[maXair140]

Sorry to double post, but I just want to post the coaster quiz for Round 2. Please PM your answers, or you're automatically out. You don't have to be the fastest to win this round. Also, don't cheat. If you do, I have a way of knowing so don't look up the answers or you're out!

1.) Name a park that received a new coaster this year.
2.) Cedar Point has a coaster clone(s).
A. True
B. False

3.) maXair is a similar ride to _________at PKI.

4.)Name two parks that the coaster Deja Vu is in.


5.)What is Iron Dragon's capacity?

6.) What opened on 6/16/2001?

7.) This park has changed its name at least 3 times. What is it?

8.)Which park received the Golden Ticket in 1995?

9.) Which waterpark was recently annouced to be shutting down?

10.)What ride was recently put up for sale and what year did this ride open? (Must have both to get right.)

BONUS: Which coaster currently holds the record for the tallest loop?

[coasterdude28]

Well I just submitted my answers for the quiz. That was pretty hard but it was fun. How many people have answered the questions already? Also, is there a deadline to when someone can submit?

[steel]

I sent in my answers.

[AdrenalinexX]

I sent mine in. I think i failed lmao

[steel]

Rotfl, not sure about mine. One question I'm 99.9% sure I got wrong.

[maXair140]

Well, we have one more person to send me their quiz. I'll give them the weekend to do it. Once I get all of them, I'll tell you how you all did and who's out.

[steel]

The weekend, or the weekend and Labor Day?

[maXair140]

Just the weekend. Labor Day you will find out how you did.

[AdrenalinexX]

Ok. Can't wait.

[coasterdude28]

Just wondering if you have tallied up the scores yet. I'm anxious to find out how I did.

[maXair140]

Well, I just PM'ed everyone their quiz scores. I won't be able to start Round 3 tonight because I am pretty busy, but I will try to start it as soon as I can.

[coasterdude28]

Is anyone out from that round?

[steel]

I know I'm not. I got 100%.

[maXair140]

I only decided to have one person out this round. That is because they didn't PM the answers for the quiz in time. Now for Round 3! This will be a game of most common entries. I think most of you know how to play this, but in case you don't, here's how you play. You will be asked to name something, such as a coaster at SFMM. You want to try to have the same answer as the majority of the players. So if you chose X, and so did three other people, you would get 3 points. You want to have the most points.

Here are the categories, PM your answers!

1. Kingda Ka or Top Thrill Dragster?
2. Name a coaster that was new this year.
3. Name a B&M floorless coaster.
4. Front or back?
5. Name a coaster that is SBNO.
6. Name a record breaker at Cedar Point.
7. Name a coaster that broke the 300 foot mark.
8. Name a park owned by Six Flags.
9. Name a coaster that uses LIMs.
10. Name a steel coaster that is in the top 5 on this site.

The person with the highest score is the winner of this entire game. Now, if there is a tie, then there will be a Round 4. Good luck!

[coasterdude28]

I liked this round. Is there a deadline as to when we can answer?

[maXair140]

Sorry! I never seem to put that down. The deadline is this Thursday.

[coasterdude28]

Ok, thanks.

[coasterdude28]

Well did everyone submit their answers?

[maXair140]

Well, one person didn't send me them, but the deadline was yesterday. Now I can announce the winner! Congratulations to: coasterdude28! He scored 20 points on this last game. Here are the other scores:

steel:17
AdrenalinexX:16
