It's big enough to have its own body corporate.

LOL. My old man bought a complex many years ago under strata. The vendors insisted a condition of sale was that the entire complex must be kept under strata title.

One of the more interesting parts of Strata is that the owners must have a meeting each year. So every year, dad sits down in his office as chairperson, and has to record the minutes of the meeting, as secretary, of the details and financial statements, which he presents as treasurer, and conducts a vote on the issues, as a representative member \ owner of each lot.

that's right. this stupidly ridiculous establishment requires my father to have an annual meeting with himself. *sigh* only another 17 years left until the contract condition runs out.

Sure, let's call it 60.96mm. (But if we're at that level of pedantry then it's 40mm, not 4mm.)

I'm not at any level of pedantry.  If anything, I'm less then you because I willing to round it out further. (But if we're getting at that level of pedantry then it's 60.96m not 60.96mm)

for fucks sake somebody hold a gun to the head of someone at VRTP so we can get a theme, a layout, and a promo so we can talk about SOMETHING else?

@AlexB I thought you already knew the theme.  Don't worry, I've made my point enough times and I'm starting to get sick of my own voice.

Why has this idea only been put forward now? We could've used this months ago

Probably the only Body Corporate committee meeting worth attending. Most are full of wanna be politicians pushing their own agenda. 

Suffered through enough of them in my years as a building manager. 

Okay, since we're discussing what defines a hypercoaster, here's another question

Is this a gigacoaster? It's 367ft.

Just look at the number:

367

Is 367 between 300 and 399?

If yes, then said coaster is a GIGA coaster.

No, you don't get the point of the question. Yes, it fits the gigacoaster category, but would you consider launched coasters to count as gigacoasters? And for that matter, hypercoasters as well?

Then why is TTD a Strata coaster then if it launches?

Why does being a launched Coaster preclude you falling into the hyper/giga categories? 

Does it fall into the style of ride that you'd view as a hyper/giga normally though? Lift hill, multiple big drops, lots of airtime, swept-out layout, long ride?

I'm just interested to see what people think about it here - what other factors will cause people to draw the line on hyper status.

See I like to keep things simple.

> Launched coaster

> Full circuit coaster

> Shuttle coaster

>>> But then I also have just a 'coaster' category for things like Buzzsaw and smaller coasters like wild mouse (mice?) coasters and El Loco sized ones. 

Well according to Wikipedia, Kingda Ka is a hypercoaster

Who says I don't? 

@AlexB  I thought we had an agreement we would hide the trail and blame @pushbutton for everything.  Sometimes when I talk to you it’s like I’m talking to 2 different people.

Lol we have 3 pages discussing if 60 metres is200feet which its not, therefore its not a hyper coaster 😂

What isn't?

The only figures we have for this ride are from RCDB, which has shown incorrect figures for this precise issue in the past, and updated them once construction was complete.
