http://travel.latimes.com/daily-deal-blog/...-magic-mo-5502/ I guess in time we will see if CF really cares about the "title" or not. One thing is certain, the CP 2011 rumors will be running rampant.

You really feel that SoB's issues are due to CF's sending out mixed signals & creating mass confusion? Really? The ride has had numerous incidents/ accidents (many prior to CF aquisition), after being cleared as safe to ride. Are you suggesting that CF go through the same process again to deem the ride safe? Putting my feelings aside for SoB; given any other ride, if ride "X" had an issue, and that issue was investigated then fixed, and then ride "X" had another issue, why would going through the same motions again make sense? Definition of insanity: doing the same thing over and over again, expecting different results.

^ Not sure where the "jerk" thing came from or how you came to that feeling, but it was clear that the ride was staying, and that it would not be themed to Scooby. Why it took Screamscape's indication on 9/30/09 and not the information gained here on 9/16/09 is rather surprising. Sorry if you felt "scooped" newsguy.

Honestly, does it really matter? It's not like there is a specific time frame for it to be dismantled if it not going to operate again. Drachen Fire at BGW was SBNO for almost 4 years while trying to sell it. I'm willing to bet that if SoB does not operate again, it will still be SBNO for at least one more season.

Scobby is not; but most of the cartoons for Scooby do, had monsters and alliens in them. The mystery was a scarry theme, Scooby and Shagy were always scared. Well I tell you what, nothing is more suspenseful than waiting for the Great Pumpkin, or the little red haired girl.

^ Sorry, gotta ask. Scooby is scary?

^^ And now, you must choose a punishment. 1. Get dipped into boiling oil -or- 2. Ride SoB 20 consecutive times Choose. Choose wisely.

So you will take Screamscape's word over BoddaH's? In short, wow... They're not removing the ride all together...

Where did you get that idea that SP was once considered "garbage"? Sure, it suffered in it's age as many Arrow loopers have, but "garbage"? I would like to see some facts to back that statement up, because right now, you are sounding exactly like those people that shark 6495 brought up that you dissected into nothing.

I hope it is done right. http://www.cleveland.com/news/plaindealer/....xml&coll=2

Are these ratings from last year, and how accurate are they? I have a difficult time believing that enough people went to each attraction in 2009 to actually consider this "Top 10" to be even a little valid.

I really think everyone needs to consider: Does the cost justify the experience? And not just the cost of re-re-engineering or re-tracking. I am just talking about the normal everyday, wear & tear maintenance. Once you answer that question, now add in the bigger changes that need to be made. When I bought my first car (used), it got me from point "a" to point "b". At first it was reliable, then after a few years it started to cost me more money for maintenance. And even though I would put money into it, it still was unreliable. It came to a point where either I kept pouring money into it, and have negative results; or just buy a new one which was more reliable, and had a set cost/ month and everytime I went to start it, she turned over. No worries.

Ok, if it's not SoB, given the time, effort and money, what do you believe would be considered "the biggest mistake of all time" as far as coasters go? Not that I don't agree with you, just looking for your opinion.

All this info was already announced: http://www.KICentral.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=19483 added BOLD emphasis New ride names mentioned, not new rides. And discussed into even more detail here: http://www.KICentral.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=19385 None of the current ride selections will be removed in this conversion.

http://www.guardian.co.uk/media/2009/sep/2...know-the-answer This looks like it could be a lot of fun. I *believe* I saw something like this on US TV. People were riding X trying to keep a rubber ball in a cup without actually covering the cup with their hand. It was probably on Travel Channel or Discovery Channel within the last two years.

I'm surprised that your kids would feel that way. My kids are excited whether we go to CP, KI, Hershey, or Kennywood. How the kids area is themed, or not themed for some parks, has zero bering on my children's enjoyment.

Anyone want to guess the over/ under that a new owner will not donate nearly as much. I think it is rather funny that their is "concern" that a new owner won't invest as much into the community. Do they actually expect a new owner to spend a ton of money on the purchase of the park, and then donate money like AB did? They really need to plan for the worst, and hope for the best.

*shakes Magic 8 Ball* Cannot predict now.

Please use spell check. Your grammer is a slaughter on the English language and should be put in a scene at HH. Now THAT would be funny.

While the McNair/ Ledger scenes were a bit over the edge, I would have liked to see the rest of the skeletons. Some looked rather humorous.

Yeah, it does look alarming. I am wonding if broken parts of the cable/ catch car assembly got wedged in between the track & seat bolts and actually broke the bolt off which caused the seat to move. I have no idea on how those seats are bolted to the frame of the car, I'm just throwing a wild stab out there because the seat doesn't move until over halfway through the roll-back.

They could just be satisfting insurance companies' questions as well. Whether it is insurance for guests that were injured, or KI's carrier. If there are pending lawsuits, the insurance companies may be forcing KI to operate the ride and do tests.
