Dippin' Dots Anyone?

MF dethroned, but TTD is already in the #11 spot, which is spectacular for it's newness and the problems it's had. Perhaps in a year or two it'll be right up there with MF and S:ROS. Maggie's still holding strong, and Raptor made a slight comeback into the top 10. Only thing that got me was WT being beaten by S:UE, not quite sure what's up with that.

Edit: About the Maggie-Geforce thing, they must've just switched the points around because in the editorial and press release it also says E:GF beat out Maggie.

The thing that got me is that Magnum has more points than Expedition GeForce(798-794), but it is ranked below it. How does that work?

That is strange. What happened to MF? It's no longer #1. :( If you look at the wooden coaster list Blue Streak made to 35 and Mean Streak is 49.

i liike sm:ue more than wicked twister myself.

Guess what? I got a fever! And the only prescription... is more cowbell!

i bet that mf would've stayed at #1 if it wasnt for mf. a lot of the dedicated cp fans from that region probably changed their vote to ttd.

Wicked Twister is extremely underrated.

Johnz, I'm not surprised that Blue Streak beat Son of Beast. Having ridden it a few times, it's even rougher than Mean Streak. Moving at 92 MPH on wood isn't the best idea. Avalanche Sam and I went to PKI shortly before summer, before CP opened and having ridden SoB recently, I don't think it's that great a ride. It is almost guaranteed to hurt your legs and if you don't sit right, your back.

By the way, FeelTheForce310, your link doesn't work. I'd like to see where some of my favorite PKI rides fit in as well as some of my favorite CP rides.

yeah, its just that everyone makes a big deal about it being so awesome, so i thought it was funny that an older ride made in the 60's would beat it out. but i agree, son of beast is horrible. GO BEAST!!! the only pki ride for me:)!

All I have to say is congrats to Cedar Point yet again. :D

Courage is not the absence of fear. It is over comming it.

What I think is the most interesting point is TTD. Perhaps some were expecting that ranking to be higher? I wonder what the park's expectations were...well, with what problems it had and all, 11 doesn't surprise me.
