NE Olympics '16 / July 14th: Biathlon

Because I will forever fight against the narrowmindedness of many americans.

 

This is what I mean:

 

Just imagine someone who doesn't really watch football watch a Patriots game. He sees that the Running Back really only gets used to fake a hand-off. Now he goes online and says, Patriots should release their Running Backs and criticises the team for having them. That is, I think, a pretty ok allegory for what you are doing. If you don't have knowledge in a specific area, you should not criticise other people. You can criticise the ride itself if you want, but don't criticise something because you don't know something.

but I never criticized the ride for being bad.

Yeah, but you could have done. What is wrong is criticising the park because you failed to recognize the ride.

Faas why so serious.

^ pretty sure he was being facetious...

 

this whole conversation is dumb.. why's it gotta be recognisable? custom flat could be something completely made up if you're imaginative enough

Shut the fuck up you terrible, morose piece of shit.

we should all just shut up and vote for my entry

Sorry guys this kinda got out of hand.

Thanks Hitler

this web sight fucking rules

I'm still waiting why 9 cars on the invert is bad About the madhouse: let it go, let it goooo... I knew it would be dangerous to add it as a flat ride but this discussion got way out of hand.

9 cars is just unconventional. most inverts have 8 cars per train. I'm pretty sure only one invert doesn't (Flight Deck - California's Great America).

B&M doesn't use 9 cars on inverts, but that's the only problem really.

Nemesis Inferno also has only 7 cars.

@FredD, it's really not that big of a deal. Just a small mistake that might subtract 1℅ from the score in my mind. Being these are basically designs, mistakes on the coaster are amplified a bit I'm ny mind. Even more so than realistic correctness howeve, I think 8 cars looks a lot better than 9, if that counts for anything.

Never understood why RCT defaults to 9 cars, so I think that can be excused.

If Flight Deck has 9 cars so can Fred's coaster. 9 cars is learly not unrealistic. Realistic =/= average

RCDB says Flight Deck runs a 7 car train. Has that changed? I didn't think there were any B&M inverts with a 9 car train, though Alpengeist is 8 cars plus a zero car.

Oh I thougt that was 'thr problem' but I don't find that a problem. Before RMC, a rmc-wooden coaster would also be called unrealistic and impossible

No Liam, scoop was saying Flight Deck has 7, not 9 cars. Way to confuse everyone, gah.

I guess I should have clarified.
