I'm not necessarily asking ya'll to grade the coasters themselves because ya'll can already do that by reviewing, but out of all of the parks you've been to, what's your grade out of 10 for amusement parks because of their roller coasters? Here's mine:
Busch Gardens Tampa - 8.5/10
Cedar Point - 9.5/10
Dorney Park - 8/10
Dutch Wonderland - 5/10
Hersheypark - 8/10
Islands of Adventure - 9/10
Kennywood - 8.5/10
Knoebels - 8/10
Universal Studios Florida - 7.5/10
William's Grove - 6/10

How can Magic Kingdom beat Dollywood if the grading scale is based on coasters?
SFGAm - 10
SFMM - 8
SFSt.L - 6
Islands of Adventure - 9
Universal Studios Florida - 6
Busch Gardens Williamsburg - 9
Busch Gardens Tampa - 9
Cedar Point - 8
EDIT - Updated list makes it harder to get a higher rating.

I wasn't just basing it on coasters. I was grading it on all the "rides and attractions".

^ That's cool, but did you read the directions? It was supposed to be based on coasters. If I had based my list on all "rides and attractions," it would have been significantly different. Mind you, I have no problem that you changed the rules around, this wasn't my thread and I still think your list is valid. I was just wondering if you did in fact read the "instructions".

I didn't include any of the Vegas places, because their coasters are stand-alone attractions. The exception being Adventure Dome, but we didn't have time to make it there, unfortunately.

I'd rather be coaster riding!
