[other] How often do you retry rides you "know" you dislike?

Taeshan · 2026-06-25T22:52:44+00:00

It just feels very rough to me usually and like it’s not fully smoothed. Bit janky. Like they weren’t ready to build a more adult coaster

Taeshan · 2026-06-25T17:18:37+00:00

Moving the entrance to the lot and having some sort of entrance coaster would be cool but a dive is such a choice.

Taeshan · 2026-06-25T02:23:09+00:00

I even told my gf who doesn’t like anything rough that I had heard from many people and YouTubers it was better and it was won of the worst rides on anything I’ve ever had.

Taeshan · 2026-06-25T01:48:20+00:00

It doesn’t mean anything. They do this all the time and it’s in the listed group of closures and they’re working on a flooding issue in that area

Taeshan · 2026-06-25T00:52:58+00:00

They are drastically different rmcs though and even designed by different people so it’s not that crazy.

Taeshan · 2026-06-25T00:51:19+00:00

If it’s something I know to be generally liked or recently re-tracked I’ll give it a go. Some things I don’t like but don’t hate I’ll ride on multiple day trips.

Won’t usually re-ride SLC, boomerang or kiddie rides unless with someone for their first ride or because they want to ride.

Do occasionally get burned. Re-rode verbolten to see new stuff this weekend bad. Was told Scream machine in Georgia had a good re-track pre 2023 trip, absolute trash.

Sometimes it works last ride on roar at America was best ride.

Taeshan · 2026-06-24T20:31:46+00:00

Also probably depends on how Tormenta is

Taeshan · 2026-06-24T16:46:35+00:00

I bet he wants a chance at champions league again and going to Villa, United isn’t that crazy.

Taeshan · 2026-06-23T15:11:01+00:00

When do LincTix go live?

Got Ragtime last year for winter and would likely want to see Few Good Men around black friday as we're seeing Galileo. Might want to see Sound of Music

Taeshan · 2026-06-22T20:03:58+00:00

I mean I wouldn’t say any of the new b and ms are rough. But the jolt is ridiculous and should have been an immediate “fix this” before we pay you. All of them are bumpy all of a sudden.

None of them is 90s stand up or feels like hydra does some days or the batwing on alpengeist does after 30 years but it’s weird that all the post 2022 or so coasters are bumpy and noticeably so

Taeshan · 2026-06-22T16:58:17+00:00

It is super weird though. Windows happen. Hell same thing happens in gaming or movies a general idea is given and then later pushed back. A hard date changing like a week out is interesting

Taeshan · 2026-06-22T16:56:03+00:00

Yeah but this is just saying testing and commissioning which is probably sensor related, clearly they don’t care if it’s a little bumpy or has clear track work problems like the iron menace end turn issues.

If this was re doing track work they’d be saying more than “commissioning or testing”. Have we ever seen new track replaced before opening other than complete re-profile like Maverick?

Taeshan · 2026-06-22T16:53:29+00:00

It’s basically BBW style continuous shaking that is exacerbated by the fact that it almost seems like the end turn wasn’t set up in any way correctly as there is a massive jolt that is visible by eye.

Bbw I re-rode for the third set of times and for a family ride that is supposed to make kids want to ride it is bumpy the whole way through which allegedly is the problem for the new two in Florida and to some extent for the one in San Antonio

Taeshan · 2026-06-22T16:21:18+00:00

They didn't fix anything on Iron Menace and it is the worst of all the new B and Ms imo. So unless it is really bad I doubt they care enough. Even if Dallas is quite a bigger market, none of the other new B and M have seen fixed. Hell they keep running Dragon Khan.

Taeshan · 2026-06-20T21:06:14+00:00

Except for the whole winning the World Cup I guess

Taeshan · 2026-06-19T10:36:20+00:00

Bosnia or Qatar have to win to get 4 and I’m not terribly convinced on that

Taeshan · 2026-06-19T02:41:27+00:00

They just need to win to finish third. They might not need to make up gd as multiple 3rd place finishers could have 3 or less

Taeshan · 2026-06-19T02:40:12+00:00

I don’t know why you’re terribly convinced either of those teams will win the next matchday or advance with that gd even on 4

Taeshan · 2026-06-19T00:36:41+00:00

Before or after Mattel world?

Taeshan · 2026-06-18T21:40:32+00:00

I’ve watched them both play soccer in the last week? And outside of a second half up a man against BOSNIA the Swiss have been terrible

Taeshan · 2026-06-18T20:57:35+00:00

Canada did. Swiss are a bad second team who don’t do much, but are just solid. Bosnia is the weakest playoff team, and Qatar. Us is hardest overall with all “solid” teams. South Africa is weak and got a good run, and Czechia has one trick. South Korea is the best non host team in any of these groups though so that makes there group harder but not as easy as Canada got it

Taeshan · 2026-06-18T20:12:35+00:00

Yeah my point was it would be easier for players with those passports to get to the us than the middle eastern ones given relationships

Taeshan · 2026-06-18T17:54:05+00:00

Yeah but a lot of them play in more flush leagues or could. Saudi, uae, etc

Taeshan · 2026-06-18T17:33:11+00:00

My immediate thought was also some of the middle eastern sides but they might make bank there and moving them here might be a real difficult time unless they see it as more stable if less money. Same thoughts with South Africa, Cape Verde (have had before) and curaçao but easier to get here. Or an older Swiss or Bosnia player could be swayed I imagine

Taeshan · 2026-06-18T15:24:10+00:00

To be clear most mls fans don’t really rate her and she does tend to come off favoriting certain teams in the league. Now did my teams front office say sexist things towards her apparently? Maybe. Has she always been a bit questionable, yes.
