WOW! I want a couple of those! I especially like the retired haunted castle w/lightning, dracula, the torture factory, the fun house. There's a bunch on ebay. I got kicked off of ebay again they claim that I'm associated with suspended user darkpark2004 which has zero activity or feedback. I want to get back on and now the message at the my ebay says indefinately suspended. I hope my mom doesn't get the boot for being associated with me, it happened once before. Why does ebay ban you? I think my brother screwed some people on ebay a couple years ago with an account he made up he never shipped anything after recieving the funds for several items and he tried to sell copied CDR software. After complaints came in the account(s) of my brother were blocked by ebay. Now my account rwk22 was blocked a year ago because my brother made me get a 3rd non paying bidder by not paying for soemthing and I got booted. I got back on but then I got booted again because my brother put up microsoft windows keys for auction and this year I faxed in a statement and got back on. My mom got blocked because she was associated with me but she got back on after she complained and I got back on. Now I'm suspended again. Paypal blocked me, too.

Wow, Robert, you sure have your share of problems. If you really want to get your hands on some"old" rides, go on: www.amusementparknostalgia.com. There are alot of "standing" amusement parks where rides are just sitting there rusting away. Very interesting site. |

I'm creating my own boardwalk in Roller Coaster Tycoon 3. It will have all the piers from Fun to Sportland, and it will even have the tram cars. It will be retro, when Hunt's Pier was at it's prime and Castle Dracula will be included as well as Hitchcock Manor and Frankenstein Castle. There will be custom signs for the rides using in game banners and billboards. Almost every dark ride that existed between 1978-1982 will be included. The "town" area will be empty for now. I'm mainly concentrating on the amusements. I made up a bunch of signs such as the dark ride ones using modified pics of actual signs from the websites. Also there will be custom music such as Bach Toccata and Fugue in D minor for Castle Drac, etc. So far I have some of Hunt's Pier, Castle Drac partway finished, some of Morey's and Sportland and Fun. It will be like a virtual 3D Wildwood where you can ride on the rides. Someone at the Atari RCT3 forums was making a present day Morey's Piers, but there hasn't been an update in awhile. In mine I named some of the park employees (handymen, or security guards) after pier owners like the Morey's, Bud Hunt, Vince Kostek, Bill Howard, Nickels, etc. since it's based on 70's 80's.

Imagine if we all had the free time that good Old Robert has to play around on a silly computer game and try to badly re create the boardwalk in its glorious heyday......oh i cant stay I have important things to get to like taking care of a family and paying bills and getting ready for a long and laborious work week. MUST BE NICE!!!!!!! I am going to have that saying put on a t shirt on the boards so if you see a guy wearing it you will know exactly what it means.

Hey Dark, let's be thankful that Robert doesn't have a family to worry about. I don't want to even imagine what his kids would be like. |

Maybe Robert does all this in his "spare" time?? Surely that can't be ALL he does!  |

Thanks for the message watchthetramcar. I'm actually making my own boardwalk just for the fun of it. I'm making stores and a pizza place on it. I don't even know if i'm making the right size of things depending on how big the people i'm gonna put on it. But i was thinking of making another part with rides on it so this helps.
