30 Day Rollercoaster Challenge - Via Lamebook

So on the Facebooks there's this whole... '30 Day Rollercoaster Challenge' crap going down.. I'm far too lazy to do it over 30 days... And I lack an internet connection... So I'll just post it all at once.
I'm not really sure what the rules are.. Or if rides can repeat or not.. I mean... What if 'My Favorite Coaster' is also... the 'Best ride at night'... I don't know, maybe I'll turn it into the "45 Coaster Challenge over 30 Days all done in 1 day"... Or something.... Anyways... here we go!

day 01 - your favorite rollercoaster
Hmm, Boulderdash? Yes I think so. - http://www.flickr.com/photos/canobiefan/1732127570/

day 02 - your least favorite rollercoaster
Oh man, here comes a Two-Fer! FURIUS BACO! - http://www.flickr.com/photos/canobiefan/2275080736/ and SON OF BEAST! - http://www.flickr.com/photos/canobiefan/3919508247/ Such an awful set of coasters...
Baco - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sWAQYvQOIR4 / SoB - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8GPmIW629e4

day 03 - a rollercoaster you could ride over and over again
Now see, here's one that could be Dash again... But I'll give this to El Toro - http://www.flickr.com/photos/canobiefan/1759909229/

day 04 - a rollercoaster you have never been on but want to
Hmm, this could be a hard one.. I don't know. I guess I'll just say Steel Dragon 2000
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4tIkUFb3KAI (Skip in 60 seconds)

day 05 - a rollercoaster that reminds you of someone
Uh.... I'll have to skip this one...

day 06 - a rollercoaster you have never been on but do not want to
lol. None really.. I guess I'd ride anything.. But for fun - Hemsby Fun Park's Caterpillar
http://rcdb.com/3622.htm?p=0 - THRILLING

day 07 - the first rollercoaster you ever went on
Not sure.. I've been going to parks and riding stuff as long as I can remember.. And even before that (like the BABBY photos of me places and crap...)

day 08 - a rollercoaster you know like the back of your hand
Again... Dash, Toro... And the yet to be mentioned Yankee Cannonball! So I'll give cannonball the nod. - http://www.flickr.com/photos/canobiefan/3707120093/
My love, Yankee Cannonball - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2Ewum2kYen8

day 09 - a rollercoaster from your childhood
Hmm, Cannonball again? Or maybe I'll give Flyer Comet a shout out - http://www.flickr.com/photos/canobiefan/2212067324/
Old video of it :( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-8dQ_6sE_GQ

day 10 - a rollercoaster best ridden at night
... Boulderdash...... (Stupid repeats in this list.. But DAMN Dash is a night ride)
As you can see in this video.. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9KIyxIWmXIs You cant really see ANYTHING! :D

day 11 - a rollercoaster from your favourite manufacturer
The Dragon itself - http://www.flickr.com/photos/canobiefan/2499197417/
Not only is it from B&M, my favorite manufacturer... But it's also one of my overall.. Favorite coasters!
Dammmnnnn - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XJQQApZ8Dwo

day 12 - a rollercoaster from your least favourite manufacturer
Hmm, any coaster from them? Hmm... Super Flight?! - http://www.flickr.com/photos/canobiefan/2274287835/
So awful - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eNydh3mZv68

day 13 - a rollercoaster that is a guilty pleasure
I'll have to give this one to Lost Coaster of Superstition Mountain :D - http://www.flickr.com/photos/canobiefan/1767911428/
So, so fun http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pbkEHceSZ8c

day 14 - a rollercoaster that no one would expect you to love
I tend to like odd/different rides.. So whenever I like a 'mainstream' coaster people think its odd :P
So I'll just say Renegade at Valleyfair, a ride I really, really liked last summer - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b8o7jgc-TrU

day 15 - your favourite rollercoaster not in your own country
Well, I already posted Dragon.. So I'll go with the ever amazing Nemesis! - http://www.flickr.com/photos/canobiefan/2338951703/
I was so happy this ride really was as good as I hoped. For over overhype didnt let me down! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aFdy40KS95s

day 16 - a rollercoaster that you used to love but now hate
Aw, this makes me sad...I can think of a few.. But I'll go with Hersheypark's Wildcat - http://www.flickr.com/photos/canobiefan/1732291792/
New trains.. made it worse, slower, laggy, boring! - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sZ57MAHs_Es

day 17 - a rollercoaster you really miss
Again, a sad one.. Uh, Williams Grove Cyclone, one hell of a ride that will never run again. - http://www.flickr.com/photos/canobiefan/1696283621/
And here's MY video.. that someone stole and put on their youtube page - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jqMBkgdhZyc

day 18 - a rollercoaster that has made you sick
Never happened, ever.

day 19 - a rollercoaster that took you by surprise
Williams Grove Cyclone? Lost Coaster? both are repeats... Hmm, Kanonen? - http://www.flickr.com/photos/canobiefan/2575644909/
For such a small coaster.. Its pretty perfect. Launch, tophat, loop, some turns, zerogroll, helix.. All in a small package - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TNoG_AHZxpQ (OH! and I got my first ROLLBACK on it!)

day 20 - a rollercoaster that makes you laugh
And again! Williams Grove Cyclone? Lost Coaster? But I'll give it to Dragon's Fury - http://www.flickr.com/photos/canobiefan/2267554558/
Such a fun ride. Best spinner ever - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h_KuF9BW7Qo

day 21 - a rollercoaster you wish you had never been on
ha, BOSS. A ride I had wanted to ride from day one... got the chance and it sucked SOOO badly. :'( - http://www.flickr.com/photos/canobiefan/1759909283/
Yeah, I could have done with NOT riding it... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=py1zfRGUE5Q

day 22 - a rollercoaster you had your best ORP on
I guess Hurler, I wish I had the photo scanned.. Good times were had. - http://www.flickr.com/photos/canobiefan/3598350894/ (not the ORP)
Meh - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OXZ9iddapgk

day 23 - a rollercoaster that has dropped out of your top ten
The Comet - http://www.flickr.com/photos/canobiefan/1720212755/ - And while I still have loads of love for the ride.. I've just found a few better :P
Not top 10, still top 15 ;) - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S47Yb2vWyyE

day 24 - a rollercoaster you have been genuinely scared of
Hm.. not scared of.. But scared ON - (again with the repeat but DAMN) - Williams Grove Cyclone, just after the turn around.. also the fact the lapbars didn't really work. Or the seatbelts didnt stayed clipped... Or that the ride was falling apart, really... She'll be missed.

day 25 - the rollercoaster you think has the best merch/logo
Hmm, while I think the ride sucks.... Millennium Force has a pretty cool logo, theme song, taglag, and stuffs - http://www.flickr.com/photos/canobiefan/2603806615/
ZzZzz - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jbXPhOFRxTc - For such a BIG ride, it just doesn't do anything interesting..

day 26 - your favourite kiddie coaster
Hmm, while not a 'kiddie' more of a family... Vapor Trail is pretty ballin' - http://www.flickr.com/photos/canobiefan/3720799908/
Fun for what it was, and better than most coasters its size. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-4UioZmoLaA

day 27 - a rollercoaster you would most liked to have designed
lol, uh... Any of them? If I could...? I don't know.

day 28 - the rollercoaster you next intend to ride
Uh, I don't know.. Anything in Central Florida? Manta maybe? - http://www.flickr.com/photos/canobiefan/3609732750/
Havnet been on it in a while, so its time? - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T-ReRRnaxIo (Skip in 2 mins)

day 29 - the last rollercoaster you went on
Big Thunder Mountain Railroad, the night Erik, Pacia, and I 'snuck' into EMH - http://www.flickr.com/photos/canobiefan/2452094569/
Weee - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UAyxYz-OsmY

day 30 - your favorite rollercoaster at this time last year
Uh, it's still Boulderdash, still.

  4. Quick question: On day 22, what's an ORP? Open Rain Poncho?

  5. ORP stands for "On Ride Photo", the kind where the "ride" takes a photo of you and you can buy it at the exit. http://www.holytaco.com/25-hilarious-roller-coaster-photos/
