I'd like to petition the moderators for a new word filter. With Verbolten being close to opening, can we make sure the term "Verbolten" is never used to describe this coaster? It just makes my head hurt, and it's an idiotic nickname. And if anyone refers to it as "Boltie," the permaban should be dropped on them. :devil:

Anyone able to compare the sensation provided on the Intamin system (Th13teen) and the Zierer (Verbolten)?

^I'd call it a "win-win" solution. Lazy people don't have to type out the full name, and picky people don't have to be annoyed with the shortened versions.

Adding an "...ie" to the end of a coaster is reserved only for Cedar Point coasters.

^^I just get annoyed by nicknames for coasters, i.e. "Magnum" for Magnum (although Robb's satirical use of them in the CP report was full of win). Call me a snob, I won't mind. :p

^Exactly! Robb and I talked about that not long before he went up there, it's awful!
