My first question to the regular would be: "So the 10 year plan included WS not lasting 10 years?"

Not necessarily the "brakes" but the sensors by adding or placing the sensors in a different location for a 3 train operation.

KC was a fun coaster & VERY unique for when it was new. Metal fatigue will get ya every time.

Pelee Island is only 22 miles from Sandusky.

I believe CP will use the 150th anniversary to market 2020 with adding a small ride or no ride at all (meaning a ride transplanted from another park). This will allow year long "teasing" in 2020 for a new large ride in 2021/ 2022

Adding more attendees or more bathrooms will not impact guest respect on how to use the facilities. Signage on guests respecting the facilities and where to go/ get in touch with an attendant could go a long way.

Seasonal parks can rarely touch year round parks on any level.

"You must be a star because you look beautiful from a distance"

Rest assured, there will be teasers. It is a no-brainer way to market 2020 season passes.

BGW also does not get the high attendance every day that CP & KI get. I was shocked at how both BGW & KD were dead when we recently visited just before the 4th of July.

Not that any of the recent posts are false, but why would the park allow someone to "steal their thunder" to announce anything? These projects are kept very confidential. Why would they spill the beans to someone on the inside now before announcing it themselves?

I don't see a desperate for teasing topic there......

As a former bar/ restaurant owner, this is 100% accurate. I can't tell you how many times I would find a "product" sticking to the side of the stall- and there were separate cans in each stall for these....

With all the ugly pedofile issues that have come to light the last handful of years is likely the reason for the closed doors.

60-90 days seems a bit much. The typical cure time is 28 days. Or are they using a different type of mix that requires a longer cure time?

This is not the first time enthusiasts had blue prints in hand from public sources. Those making the decisions on teasers/ media releases know enthusiasts treat is as a badge of honor to provide "insider info" about new rides- especially coasters. Meaning- KI knows public blueprints will be found. Teasers are thought up long before the blue prints are available to the public. Coming out with teasers now only satisfies or upsets fanboys, but potentially turn off the GP due to media attention (why go to KI in 2019 when 2020 will have a BIG ride?). Rest assured, the media surfs KIC due to the vast knowledge of the park & industry and will report many things seen here. Beast 40th is still being promoted by the park which many are, alarmingly, dismissing. Relax folks. Some are sounding like Veruca Salt wanting everything now while others sound like the old man down the street yelling at kids to get off his lawn.

I'm thinking KI will have an Intamin about 2025. A style like Maverick. Hopefully it will not come at the expense of another ride that has been rumored to be removed. And yes, Intamin. Many of their rides have a long history of issues and others the complete opposite. But let's be excited about 2020.

Ice always works & will last the day, especially if you pack it well (extra drinks etc.). We also add in ice packs & cover the cooler in a wet towel. https://www.lowes.com/pd/rubbermaid-blue-ice-weekender-pack/999970386?cm_mmc=shp-_-c-_-prd-_-sol-_-google-_-lia-_-237-_-coolersandhydration-_-999970386-_-0&kpid&store_code=1654&k_clickID=go_1793151301_68519295759_346785832464_pla-696106991190_c_9006421&gclid=EAIaIQobChMItvLG4-C54wIVmYjICh1dEQ7kEAQYAiABEgIKJfD_BwE

SoB should have been sponsored by a beer company. My national beer day at KI happened after my first trip on SoB in 2000 (3rd or 4th trip from Erie....) I was so shaken, I needed to sit down at the Beer Garden for a few.

Bring a cooler with your own food.

Disagreeing with each other is not negative. So far, nobody is wrong. There are questions that surround the issue at hand from both sides. It's just that some feel the need that everyone must agree with their way of thinking- which will never happen.

Knowing that Banshee was to be used instead of Mantis @ CP, the Banshee rumor ran rampant often at numerous enthusiast sites. Or you are just a crazy, psychic mofo scaring us.....

OMG I CAN'T BELIEVE THAT IS FREAKING REAL!!!

Cedar Point allows re-entry. Too many people staying on park property in the hotels & marina to not allow it.

Sexual harassment is very difficult to prove absent of: witnesses, email, video etc. It is also interesting that the lawsuit was filed. Typically if there is any merit to the accusations, the company being sued would want to settle before the lawsuit hits the courts. We only hear a fraction of the sexual harassment allegations & settlements. If any of this is true, the immediate supervisor should be held responsible as he did not go to HR with the allegation(s). On a side note- if you are in a difficult situation, be sure to email your direct supervisor & Bcc your personal email account. And- DOCUMENT, DOCUMENT, DOCUMENT immediately!!! You will never remember the exact details days, weeks, months, years later. If your direct supervisor does nothing, go above their head. If you do have a personal one-on-one verbal meeting, send a follow-up email with all the details discussed. Nobody will cover your butt better than yourself!
