"Unoriginal but still good." again

Airtimes
Go on a day where it's projected to rain bad and the park is closing at 4 with half of the rides already closed for the day, then you can reride this multiple times.

Theming Intensity
Probably wasn't bad in the first place but now it's even better. Congrats Six Flags America, you actually put effort into taking care of a ride.

First Drop Location Comfort Rattle Theming
It was a fun ride. The seats were very comfortable, the first drop threw me out of my seat, and the location is great. The seats were comfortable until the ride started. When I say the ride is rough, I MEAN IT. Roughest ride I've ever ridden, but still fun!

First Drop Theming Hangtime Too short
Banger, fits perfectly into Dorney Park. Worlds of Fun is officially worse now

Lap Bar Fun Intensity Rattle Capacity
Spinball Whizzer suffers from what i'll call the Inferno effect. In that it's simply not as good as another coaster of the same type in a different park in the chain, in this case the elite Dragon's Fury at Chessington. That's perhaps lead to me being a bit harsh on it over the years. Judging it on it's own merit, the layout is fine, but not overly inspired. There are some opportunities for some good spinning action though, stick 2 heavies such as myself going backwards out of the station, with either 2 whippets or ideally no one facing forward, and the car flings itself round as it swings right off the lift hill in an excellent manner. It rides okay as well, it's not as smooth as Fury is but it doesn't batter you too much most of the time. Just like fury however, capacity is an issue, although at least at Towers it is merely a supporting cast member. Certainly worth a go if the queue is short though, and also great fun if there's a group of you!

Theming Location Intensity Rattle
New Nemmy has gained 3 things since it's redo. The amazing new theming, even more crazy intensity, and a terribly annoying rattle. Yes, somehow this basically brand new version is more rattly than it's 28 year old predecessor. You can look up and watch the wheel hubs shake throughout the layout, which is not what you want on a fully overhauled attraction. One train is definitely worse than the other, which gives some hope that it's an issue that can be rectified during the off season, but it's certainly not great from B&M. Fortunately the ride is redeemed somewhat by the amazing theming job, everything from the new soundtrack to the station is excellent, and all effects are still working as of the end of September. The layout of course is still excellent as well, the reprofiled zero g roll being the highlight, and it's feet-numbingly intense in numerous places, particularly in the afternoon on the back row. Still a top tier ride, as it always will be, just got to hope that they can fix the shaking!

A cute, short little coaster with a fun train and some attempt at theming. It was doing two laps.
