Creepy Rollercoaster Will Kill You with Euphoria

[AvsJoe]

*sigh* Give my post back, Escapist. Give it back. I said drop it!

BAD Escapist! That's a BAD web site! Go find your chew toy.

Sorry, double post.

Hahaha this is the best Double Post I have ever seen. I hate when the site does that.

That's... That's Awesome...

There are too many boring death machines in the world. We need more that have a theme park feel!

...god, can you imagine being one of the guys who has to take the bodies OFF the thing? Some things just can't pay enough.

I'm all for it, I mean, if you wanna kill yourself, that's certainly a cool way to do it. Better than razors or pills or a .38.

To clarify, if somebody really wants to kill themselves, they'll do it, no matter what. So this is certainly better than the alternative. What with the pills and the razor and blah blah.

I contest that notion.

...care to expand?

"To clarify, if somebody really wants to kill themselves, they'll do it, no matter what. So this is certainly better than the alternative. What with the pills and the razor and blah blah."

I don't think that's true.

Care to explain WHY? You know... forum? Point? Counterpoint? Discussion? Enlightenment? That sort of thing?

Sorry, I was trying to get you to go first. Anyway.

I originally was taking issue with the idea that once someone has committed themselves to killing themselves, there's no stopping them. That's not correct in the context of Depression, mental illness, etc. Suicide gets prevented all the time, and people recover.

But I also take issue with the idea that it's somehow better than overdosing or slitting or whatever. Sure, the rollercoaster might be more enjoyable than the alternatives, but the outcome is still the same, death.

Will the Joker's Jaw-dropping Juggernaut be enough to take down the Caped Crusader?

The Bat may go Splat!

lol. I think it was the mine train rollercoaster that threw me off.

(not that I remember what arid heights looks like anymore anyway)

Watch the coaster have like, safety warnings saying "To prevent serious injury, refrain from..." or "do not ride if you are pregnant, get motion sickness, or have heart problems."

Or there is this one ride at Universal Studios called the "Rockit" it plays music through speakers while your riding. This coaster should have that and play the Funeral March.


I have a sick sense of humor.

Ah, yes, that is true. There are many cases of suicide prevented. But for some people, it just doesn't work. Meds, counseling, whatever, they're just so opposed to the idea of living anymore that no amount of help will make them change their minds. And I think that this thing is a great idea, because it's a lot better than botching a hanging, or a wrist-slitting, or any other form of suicide, simply because of how it works. And if you were going to go, would you rather be in pain, or be so loopy from the blood loss that you didn't even care?

It's the one where there's no money.

Spoiler: It looks like this

wow, now I really want to find my Rollercoaster Tycoon CD.

 

[Dr. Pepper Unlimited]

I love rollercoasters, but not that much. Good lord...

wow, now I really want to find my Rollercoaster Tycoon CD.

I don't have one, but this thread is making me want to hit up Steam and see if they sell it.

 

[Clive Howlitzer]

Soylent Green is people! It's peeeeeeeooooople! ! !

 

[NoOne852]

Well if this were to be used for a court's death sentence, there would be more point to it, other then that, I can't imagine it being used. They may as well put a bunch of thearpists there for the occansional person who does consider suicide.

 

[Epicspoon]

Cue reference to suicide booth in 3... 2... 1...

I hope it takes quarters *heh heh heh*

They don't. <link=http://www.gog.com/en/gamecard/rollercoaster_tycoon_deluxe>GOG does.

(DO IT! IT'S SO WORTH IT!)

 

[Tortilla the Hun]

While anyone who's played Roller Coaster Tycoon is guilty of designing a coaster that killed people,

But I didn't MEAN for it to do that! I just sucked at coaster design! I ONLY WANTED TO BUILD A BETTER SHUTTLE LOOP!

Do you know how many virtual families recieved virtual letters in their virtual mailboxes about that virtual incident? A lot. You are virtually responsible for so much virtual grief. I'm just kiddin', they probably deserved it. The ones that virtually died in the virtual incident I mean, not the virtual families. They virtually deserved none of that virtual grief...

They do have Roller Coaster Tycoon 3 [http://store.steampowered.com/app/2700/?snr=1_4_4__13], though. Someone, give me the rundown on the strengths and weaknesses of both!

Thirty one. Thirty one sped to an untimely death. And I was powerless to stop them. Why oh WHY did I let it go so close to the edge in testing mode!? WHY? AND NOW THEY haunt me in my sleep. They won't let me rest. Just THOUSANDS UPON THOUSANDS UPON THOUSANDS OF MICROSECONDS OF "100010011101101001010101". Constantly. Thirty one times. And WHY oh WHY do coaster trains explode if a single car goes off the track?
