Does Gemini count as two because it is a racer/dueler?

------------------
Millenium Force- 1
Wicked Twister- 7
Magnum- 7
TTD- 0

If the coaster races *and* duels it counts as 4.

I think it had to be in the Golden Tickets top 25. It can't be wooden.:}

The Elite Four

TTD..................MF..............WT.........RT

So then how does American Eagle count Moosh?

Its defined as red on one side and blue on the other, it races, it sort of duels, and one side runs backwards.

Can I count it as 6? :)

A few more I noticed...

If you listen to a song with the words "roller coaster" in it, that's 1/8th.

Drawing pictures of coasters counts as 1/16th. Making models counts as 1/2. K'Nex coasters only count as 1/8th.

Coasters that currently run backwards but once ran forward count as 2 unless they're currently pink. Then it only counts as 1.

Hey, redman, sometime it's funnier if people just bounce off each other, pretending to be serious, when they're really not.

Hey, Chitown, Since RB duels when it runs three trains (It's pretty cool when the train on the course comes within feet of the train on the lift), does it count as two?

------------------
I hear America screaming...

Actually Gemini is a steel coaster! Just with wooden supports!

------------------
Millenium Force- 1
Wicked Twister- 7
Magnum- 7
TTD- 0

Aha, so it counts twice, once as a wooden coaster, once as a steel one! (As would Cedar Creek Mine Ride, Adventure Express, and most other mine train rides. Conversely, so would steel support wood track rides like Villain. And don't even get me started on the Intamin laminated wood tracks...)

Have we sufficiently made fun of counting track records yet? (Not that it stops many of us...)

Yes, it counts as 2. But only, and I stress "ONLY" if American Eagle's red and blue trains are descending the lift hill at the same time that RB is dueling.

Red and blue trains at the same time on AE? What kind of a sick person are you?
