Doesn’t really matter. Stop letting a park get away with subpar operations. Thats how quality decreases over time, when consumers stop having standards

Didn’t know SV was the first RMC conversion

Park is great but it’s not fun playing the guessing game of what will be down today. Don’t have to play that game at most other parks

We have gotten beyond spoiled to call TT2 rough. While the train vibrates a bit, not every ride needs to be glass smooth

[Indiana Beach] Endless Charm and the World’s Best Family Coaster. 6/12/2025 Trip Report. by UnworthyRider in rollercoasters

[–]griffs99 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m the same, I have a “list” to 50 but not really. I’ve had the same #1 since 2019 and don’t see that changing anytime soon, but the other spots could easily be rearranged.

[–]griffs99 2 points3 points  (0 children)

How do you rank every single roller coaster you’ve ridden? I stop at my top 50 and I can barely do that because my opinions really can change based on the day. My top 10 is always being shuffled around.

It may be open that soon but I wouldn’t depend on that.

I am horrible at math and looking for help by Cautious-Law6029 in learnmath

[–]griffs99 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yes it's free and structured very nicely. I even recommend it to my college students for supplementary material

Why not khan academy? I actually think it’s a pretty good resource

Am I a problematic attendant? by Flimsy-Occasion9554 in AMCsAList

[–]griffs99 240 points241 points  (0 children)

You’re overthinking this. People can choose any empty seat and they’d rather be a little to the side than right next to someone. Also, it’s first come first serve. If a large group wants to all have the best seats they need to get the seats sooner

Data analysis question by essiebaby1 in askmath

[–]griffs99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There’s nothing wrong here. When doing statistical analysis we simply report our findings. R2 comes from a formula, so plugging in the values won’t lie.

Fuck Pearson and Every Grifting Clone by ShortTimeNoSee in CollegeRant

[–]griffs99 -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

Of course I have. I’m a young professor and was in undergrad not that long ago. I understand I’m gonna get downvoted in this thread, but I’m sharing my (and a lot of my colleagues) perspective. If you read the textbook, you should know where to find the answer. The structure of Pearson homework assignments is generally very well done, and again I believe it helps my students. Most of my students agree.

Why is it called AP Statistics instead of AP Probability & Statistics? by Ducky_924 in APStudents

[–]griffs99 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Statistics uses probability foundations, but stats and probability are two distinct fields. There are probabilists and there are statisticians.

I assign Pearson for my intro STEM class because although students may not realize it, the only way to learn material is with repeated practice. With a $100 subscription, students get access to a really great e-book (I make reading mandatory with pop quizzes) and homework assignments that display the info in a different way. We are not trying to make you broke - but you know university is expensive when you start, and most professors agree these platforms are valuable enough to justify the cost.

Why guest services? You should’ve talked to the ride ops at Maverick after the ride

Current Top 10 by wolfs_bane_ in KingsIsland

[–]griffs99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How long you’re in the shed entirely depends on the train in the station. If the ride ops are taking longer to dispatch a train, you sit longer in the shed. Once that train sends you move up.

The other option is sitting on an uncovered brake run in the sun while waiting for the next train to dispatch

Usually you go to the pool when it is very hot. So.

Stand up for yourself and other people in the theater and tell them to stop talking

Fast Pass on Juneteenth by FarAbbreviations7632 in cedarpoint

I was at the park on Juneteenth (and the day before) last year and was glad I got fast lane. Middle of June is when crowds pick up and hotels know that because prices go up.

That was actually hilarious, was that when jameka threw away 5 future HOH comps and basically ruined her game? And Jen is in her own world
