  1. ^Well, they did have a lack of experience! Plus, didn't RCCA design it? EDIT: You learn something new every day!
  2. Well there has only been one mega and no gigas. We all know what happened with the first, but that was from a company known for its rough coasters.
  3. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cJqhApNBjes&feature=player_embedded Notice around the 1:19 mark.
  4. What a way to open a thread! http://www.KICentral.com/forums/index.php?/topic/26204-what-will-take-sobs-place/ http://www.KICentral.com/forums/index.php?/topic/26170-possible-ride-station-location/ These are all good threads to discuss coming attractions.
  5. To be fair, the video was poorly designed. I get that it was supposed to skip the front gate portion and make it a big reveal, but that was poorly translated into the promo.
  6. I want to know what they expect Cedar Point to do about that. I find it part of the fun of riding Milly.
  7. Millennium Force's promo ad is one of my favorites of all time. I love the music and logo used throughout the promo. It really showed how fantastic the ride would be. Watching the Raptor ad is amazing, just to see the older animation. The interviews with all the different people are cool too. The promos now seem to lack the originality that these two had. Now it seems there is just an announcement and a POV.
  8. That could just be the length of the building. It seems to twist and turn enough to make more use of that space. Although, it does seem very small.
  9. The new Haunt will be in Mean Streak's queue line and themed to a wax museum. Here are pictures of the construction and floor plan.
  10. ^I knew it was one of the two! I never got a chance to talk to him, although I saw him at MS and at TTD ERT. I'm sure he's a nice guy.
  11. My guess is so there isn't a roar right above the main entrance to the park. Personally, I would love to be welcomed with the roar of a B&M, but others may not. I'm very excited for this ride and I can't wait to ride it. While I will miss Disaster Transport, Gatekeeper seems to be a vastly better attraction. Hopefully, I will be attending opening day so I can ride it, as I've been waiting for a new roller coaster at CP since 2007!
  12. I wish I rode in whatever seat you were in. After the first drop and turnaround, it was as rough as ever. I admire Mean Streak Henry. EDIT: Fixed Henry's name
  13. ^I'd also like to know if they are valid on Platinum Passes or just Gold Passes.
  14. Interesting, the train tour is now only a Meet the Train Conductor tour. Much less cool if you ask me.
  15. I guess to grab something on the way out of the park. I did see one at KI earlier this year with pretzles, popcorn, and coffee.
  16. I'd recommend watching sanduskyregister.com live stream. Pointbuzz's seems to be lagging a ton. EDIT 1: The costumed announcer resembled the original Banshee logo to me. EDIT 2: After the MCBR, it is only a helix and drop. VP says it will not have a "roar" like Raptor. Video does not seem to show a brake on the airtime hill. New food truck outside of the park. Not sure if that has been around recently.
  17. I wouldn't be surprised if it was toned down due to the recent breakdown. It may possibly be so whatever was replaced lasts a longer time. Maybe maXair is a superior model due to it being built 2nd and HUSS learning from Delirium. It does seem to have a longer cycle, a smoother ride, and more swings at full height.
  18. ^"I assure you that the fake pictures of Gatekeeper are purely speculation." Cedar Point PR
  19. WOW! I am very excited for the ride! The layout looks great, and the name fits with the ride very well. I hope to be at the park for opening day, as I've been excited for a new roller coaster at Cedar Point. The entrance should breath some life back into the DT area, which it has needed for a while.
  20. ^Channeling his inner Terpy, as all of us do at times.
  21. Reference to the winged seating most likely. I sort of like the name Gatekeeper, it would make sense given the location. Given the current winged logo, it seems like there would be an almost bird like theme to it.
  22. It seems that the whole Fast Lane post was removed from Cedar Point's facebook page.
  23. When you go to Montgomery Inn, you NEED to get the Ribs King Hoagie. The delicious rib meat, without the mess, on the best hoagie bun I've ever tasted! It's also much cheaper, and you get a heaping load of Haystack Onions. YUM! Add on a Caramel Lava Cake, and you have my final meal request.
  24. ^It seems to be. I saw the comment, then the next refresh it disappeared. Justin's (jdawg) is still up, in case you wish to back him up. I would if I had a facebook, but I'd love to comment about how there is still a line for Fast Lane and how it barely affects the wait for the ride. She said how she doesn't mind if it's a 5 to 10 minute difference, this could possibly help calm the fire.
