Lol at g force keeping wwap alive

RoB ranks #1 all-time for me. Sure, it's not modern, but I don't care. It was the perfect storm when it was released. It's not a realistic park exactly, but it was not fantasy. It was kinda Busch Gardens like. All the coasters were great, the main too were really great. The scale was somewhat a first too, the spacing on everything was just right. Back then, so many parks were boxy with an annoying 2x2 building style and he stayed away from that and kept it in a passable realistic style. SA was a loved reclusive parkmaker almost like Mala, so whatever he did would get a big popularity bump, tho that didn't mean too much to me. 

 

Kinda surprised to see IC with so many points. It has two of the best themes in RCT2, but the rest of it is not that great.

I sort of feel like Thorpe is being slightly underrated. It's by no means the best park ever built, but I feel like that it was at any point closer to elimination than Six Flags Santa Fe is ridiculous. I like Six Flags Santa Fe a lot, but if it were built today it would never be a Spotlight. That's not a fair metric for every park, but I think it is for modern style realism.
