Carowinds water main break
I think the appropriate response to that is, "you don't."

What were you expecting him to say? "Nah bro, we'd ignore the success and move on." No, I'd expect him to say, "If we see the success that we hope to see out of Gatekeeper, we would consider adding them to other parks." Or something to that effect. He has to be careful with what he says. He's the CEO. Again, there could be more winged coasters on the docket for other properties but for now no means no. Yeah, I agree, that was my point. People see that the answer to the question wasn't explicitly "no" and assuming it means "yes."

One less person in line woo! If it's an invert, I'll plan to ride 2-3 times a trip. Like Diamondback. Because what other ride is worth riding 2-3 times other time FoF/Beast/TopGun-Flight Deck? Adventure Express. A marathon-worthy mine train if there ever was one.

Were these taken on CSF's property? Because the 'CSF' on the sign in the first picture is backwards, which implies...

Much of their audience won't understand that as a Project 2014 teaser and will seem like KI is making fun of a park guest. Great.

I was just wondering what dinosaur of a camera took this picture. Please for the love of GOD, if you want to share a picture make sure people can make out what is in it. At least these were not as bad as http://www.flickr.com/photos/95776358@N02/9353295890/ I am so very sorry that today's pictures of the dirt and concrete in Action Zone did not meet your impeccable quality standards. MDMC01 should feel ashamed for contributing actual content in the midst of all the bull**** in the last 24 hours. I truly look forward to your next, high quality, photo update here.

Are people really that desperate for information that they're willing to believe the park would ask for credit card or social security info before looking out from ET? Jeez... Edit: Beaten by Bennett. Curse you, slow forums!

To make it easier next time, ditch flickr and its convoluted nonsense and try imgur instead

Death at Six Flags over Texas
A bag of corn might come back if unrestrained, but a human rider? If a B&M clamshell popped open in the middle of the ride I'm not confident any guest would keep their cool in that situation - and I doubt flailing about in a disturbed frenzy would bode well for safety.

what would cedar point be today without intamin?
I like the long, rambling responses in this thread that try so hard to discredit Intamin as a manufacturer and refuse to accept that Youngstud has a point (for once).

Seven Dwarfs Mine Train at WDW
So when is Seven Dwarves Mine Train supposed to officially open? It seems like it has been under construction for an eternity.

Pretty sure it didn't, and even if it had...what is their excuse for Shoot the Crapids? Why couldn't they get a log flume to work right?

Mr. negativity strikes again. It's true though, to some extent. It happens with almost every coaster installation I have seen the past few years. Park X introduces coaster Y and thus begins the enthusiass complaints. "The brake run is too long." "The colours are weird." "OTSR fail." "Too short, awful pacing." "2/10 too many trims." "With my engineering expertise in No Limits, I can tell you now this ride could have easily been 2000 feet longer with an extra 40 airtime hills." and so on... Until the ride opens to generally positive reviews with the consensus being "Great addition to park X, the general public will love it."

Kings Island ranked 15th most visited park in the U.S.!
This is definitely taught in business related programs.

Baby born in Firehawk's line?
I laugh every time I see the topic title because I can't help but think of the quote "No ordinary child. A child born in hell, forged by suffering" from Dark Knight Rises.
