Dont know.. could also be the eleventh... just passing on the quote
-
Also, taken from COASTER-net commentor Jason Rush, if you rearrange the TEOTWAWKI to this- AEWTWTOKI April Eighteenth, Welcome the World to Orion, Kings Island
-
I see why this is called TEOTWAWKI.. When this is over, so is the person in charge of all the mistakes... How do you misspell an acronym? Leave it to the 2019 teaser campaign. The debate now will be what was more intense? Decrypting spelling and informational mistakes or the next giga coaster, 20yrs after the first one.
-
You know what's sad.. I'm willing to bet Cedar Point can get 3 trains loaded and unloaded on Steel Vengeance before Kentucky kingdom gets the Clear for a 2nd loading. I've literally watched them loading people on Storm Chaser in slow motion. I think they do it on purpose to make the ride feel faster.
-
I was curious if you know where at this occurs? Does it do it forward and backwards? I seen Invertigo has a 5g rating but as many times as I've rode it, I never remember such force? I know i305 front row is black OP torture and the right side seating on millennium force is somewhat brutal during first drop and bank.
-
Oh I know they wouldn't try a hyperloop but inversions are not impossible. It's going to happen at some point in time. Coming off a hill over 60mph is plenty to do it. Even just a Banshee loop is enough.
-
About what? Kings Island spelling out the acronym? Wouldn't surprise me
-
Lol.. it's going to be funny if they spend the rest of the time writing out what TEOTWAWKI means since the GP doesnt study this stuff. You know, something just dawned on me. Someone eluded to this about 87 pages ago but these posters.... They could have put anything they wanted to on them but what did they choose? Ride effects on the body... Why waste our time on what appears to be pointless information... or is it? Next year when this ride opens will mark 20yrs after the worlds first giga coaster was ever built. I believe not only are we not knowing/seeing all of the elements but this new ride is a mass design of all the rides on these posters in terms of effects. To skip to the juicy part, not only would I believe there to be a loop in this ride, but the tallest loop in the park. Now, I may be touching on something iffy here.. but also with a mid course launch... I have no idea where else you could put one. My thinking is right after the turn around, instead of just speeding along the ground into a high hill... there may be a launch here with a loop. I would love to see the worlds first Hyperloop but we cant go putting 25 records on one ride, lol. There has never been an inversion on a giga yet so any size is a record. Referencing Firehawk and Invertigo and Flight of Fear and Vortex, all having multiple inversions.... there is no other way of experiencing cobra rolls, loops, corkscrews, loops, etc. without some sort of inversion.
-
Yep, in the human resource department before the park opens to the public.
-
Hey, if they have the power to manipulate the weather... Hell, I'll ride it
-
It's harder now... that's why I'm keeping open mind something will surprise us all in 16 days. I just hope they announce everything in 16 days and not drag it out til next year
-
I'm just going to say this.... If they were to have the layout modified to have the first loop on a giga, don't you think they'd do anything and everything to keep that element hidden from the public regardless of how obsessed one is on decoding? Loop or something else, something is being kept hidden because there is nothing mind blowing on the current layout unless it's a giga flyer, lol. But anyways, I'll just use a loop as an example. I'm assuming the loop on SoB was kept hidden from everyone, correct? Until announcement .

I could see Cedar Point wanting the first full 400ft+ coaster to posibly start more coaster wars. We see once they hit 300ft with Millenium Force how many years it's taken themselves and other park companies to go above 300ft since 2000. It's highly expensive and in unwanted financial territory. For money sake, I see 400ft+ but to get to 500ft, there is no competition to do it.. But, just like going to the Moon, if there is some chatter of a race to 500ft, I know we all bet CP woudl put their money down in a heartbeat to get one first but i dont see that competition ever happening. At least in North America.
-
And as I've mentioned before, I do not expect there to be any actual construction involving the track because the blueprints have not been approved yet. This is why they are not available. This is also why I believe there to be something added or replaced that we have not seen on the overlay yet.
-
WindSeeker still is 300ft tall and I believe Eiffel Tower is 315ft. Plus, I do not know the sea levels for each ride so hard to say who actually has the highest peak. Looking at the ride from Eiffel Tower, it will still appear shorter than where you are standing due to viewing distance.
-
Gone like TEOTWAWKI?
-
That'll be the name of the new ride. Beam
-
It is.. the layout says that right now.
-
This is a good pic, lol. In the summer of July 2019, kids sit under the teasers trying to decode it while their older sister who sits to their left already has said- "Nope, I ain't gettin on it".
-
I still have an open mind. Until the blueprints for construction of the actual coaster have been approved, nobody can install the giga... So, while there is an overlay of a giga on the current blueprints for the loading station, and the footeringszers have been poured already to match the overlay so far.... it HAS to be plausible that modifications to the overlay to still match the footeringszers can happen plus some possible element(s) not shown in the overlay...
-
^^ Human Resources, lol. I think they just meant Per Hour.
-
I have this maybe- Topgun / Fight Deck / The Bat is currently in service for 26yrs. That would put the number to 291 lift height? Drop Zone: > Skyflyer in service for 24yrs. That would make it 289 lift height. Drop Tower in service for 20yrs. That would make it 285 lift height Maybe one of these 3 is the last poster?
-
What if the numbers need to all be added up? Invertigo- 20 Firehawk- 11 (31) Flight of Fear 23 (x2 for sequence change) 46 (77) Bayern curve (9:900 = 100) 100 (177) Vortex- 32 (209) Zodiac- 11 (220) Rotor- 10 (230) Skylab- 11 (241) Shooting Star- 24 (265) Could the final Sequence X finish the number system with a 21 or 36? (286 or 301)
-
So the only current working theory is the number of yrs it was in operation and a state abbreviation...
-
Is everyone sure that's not just clear tape? Seems pretty good to be lining the tape up perfectly on these because I'm assuming that tape is hella strong so once its started, there is no repositioning it.
