I don't know if anyone has noticed this before, but I couldn't find it in a search.
Wicked Twister is running backward on the map, they show the train going forward up the back spike. I just thought it was an interesting error on the map.

If you look at Jr. Gemini it's just the picture of Gemini really, really tiny and WildCat is red.

Yeah, there are a ton of errors. I found a ton the other day, but there are only a couple I remember.
TTD's theming is still on the train...Magnum's pretzel turn is wrong. Eh, I can't remember the rest right now. But I think it's fun to find the little errors, and if anyone would like to share some more I'd love to read them.

Jeff, can't you give someone a break for being bad at spelling once in a while. You know, it might not be because the person is lazy. Maybe they just don't know how to spell the word. Do you expect us to look up words to see how to spell them just for a forum post? I think that's a little outrageous.

I don't think it's asking much for someone to run a post through a spell checker before posting. No one wants to have to decipher posts while they're reading a thread.

even if it had been spelled right, i hardly think exaggerated size of a ride on a cartoon map counts as a legitimate error.
Thats not really the point if you think about it.

The exaturation of the rides hight.
actually there are two misspelled words, and one missing apostrophe. i never capitalize anything though, so what do i know?
Exactly. Who really cares.
When I typed this post, I accidentally typed "raelly". Is it really that hard to figure that out?
How many people actually type so horribly that you cannot read it without taking more than 1 second to figure it out.
I think it's a reasonable request for members to use a spell check. Back on topic, if you were to look at the Cedar Point map you could pick out a lot of more errors then just a coaster running backwards. They don’t really draw it to scale, but rather they draw them to be most appealing, and in this case, I’m guessing the artist thought the train looked better going the other way. Who cares? It looks all right we don’t need to spend are precious time worrying about this.
Iron Dragon's supports are still gray; Mine Ride has an actual straight-down drop; there's no water tower; the supports on WT are blue (actually, a lot of stuff is blue that shouldn't be); Power Tower is red and blue; the tunnels on MF appear to be yellow and white; I think the DT building has way too many tunnels coming out of it

Well there is only one way to fully check your word's. Do it on Microsoft Word. But just to make one post. Come on one miss spelled word on every 2 or 3 post's is not gonna kill anyone. But I do try my best to edit the post to my best abilities. Even Microsoft Word can't assure that the work will be correct. BTW spelling is my weakness. Comma's and other things are mistakes. That's all ill try harder next time. *** Edited 10/23/2004 1:55:30 PM UTC by CP4eva'04***
