^ You really think if he entered the contest to win? I have entered many wedding 50/50 and simply put bride/ groom in the name slot.

Jail? Really? Yes, what he did was bad, but, I don't believe it to be malicious enough for a jail sentence.

Wow. Not only did he cause $5000 worth of damage, he could potentially cost the park $75,000 in lost revenue.

So the park gave him a PR opportunity... The money still goes to a good cause, it still will create a small media stir for the good cause, and if small PR opportunities were not given people that have the money to donate, they may be less likely to do it. Good move on the park's part. It may influence others to do the same.

I don't necessarily disagree with the "money making" aspect of it. But if people just followed the simple rules of the road, and just drive safe, I really don't see why the cameras are such a problem.

For a guy that is so "into" the industry, it was a real pee wee article...

^^ That would be Reuben Tishkoff played by Elliott Gould.

Or, just slowing the thing down somehow. CF already has a: slow, uneventful, uninspiring, rough, wood coaster, in Mean Streak.

DB is one of a kind. What other coaster has it's exact layout & elements? LOL!

Did you forget that hints and clues are just hints and clues. If they came out with the actual exact information, they would not be hints and clues anymore, just the announcement of the actual ride. What is the fun in that?

Magnum is tempermental. The ride heats up, and cools down fast & frequent because of being on the lake. That temperature change really beats up the trains, specifically the wheels & berings. You can have one ride in the morning, and one 2 hours later (in the same exact train/ seat) and have a completely different ride. Then again, it could be that it is sinking....

That might be a tough one, unless they make it all cement which would be VERY costly. The ice that forms on Lake Erie, and just the winter in general, wrecks havoc along the shoreline not only destroying wood piers, but the beaches, docks, channels- pretty much everything man-made after only a couple of years. The winter repair bill just for Presque Isle State Park (Waldameer is at the entrance to Presque Isle) is usually near a million every year. The winters on PI is truely nature's fury at it's best.

*Knock, knock* "Housekeeping. You need towels?"

How would that "go after the thrill seeker" and be something the "teen market will really enjoy"? It's all about perception & interpretation. It could be the start of the rumored boardwalk, and will also have rides.

^ The one down by the shore? Yeah, that one...

^ Absolutely. It could be the very much rumored boardwalk.

And the Prowler cost even less than Wicked Twister Although not a CF park, Ravine Flyer II was less expensive than Prowler by $2 million.

Are you asking if getting history facts correct? If yes, then it does matter.

If you are not talking before 1892, what dates are you talking about? 2:28 "By the 1950s it was hard to find much evidence of Cedar Point's glory years. The Cyclone roller coaster was gone, leaving Cedar Point without any coaster at all." Cyclone closed in 1951 and super coaster opened in 1952. http://www.rcdb.com/4529.htm Is one year now considered a long period?

If you are not talking before 1892, what dates are you talking about?

^ Did you like Manta?

Is that "safe" supposed to be "save" -or- is it supposed to "be safe"?

^ That is if Gravity Group would be willing to sell Timberliners for SoB.

I don't see how you will get bashed. At least you have actually been to CP. Many people have said the same thing about MF as you. Have you considered that MF was not designed for airtime elements? Just a thought....
