  1. ^Not really. The forecast isn't that accurate from this far off. Wait until, like, 2 days before opening day to get a more accurate reading. silver2005, who took a weather based geology class in college as an elective and aced the class.
  2. I'm pretty sure the KBF giga coaster rumor is going to start flying around as well...after about 3-4 failed attempted guesses by the enthusiast community.
  3. When parks' Facebook pages contribute more to the later throws of park withdrawal by bombarding your news feed with their opening day dates along with ride footage.
  4. Also, Mr T is an out and back coaster, not a twister....
  5. Another shed theory- perhaps they will go a Verbolten route where the shed's interior stuff changes ride for ride.
  6. Quick GCI, add about 12 ft to Mr T's height so my prediction is true-er.
  7. Wait...this means I win, like, the internet...or KIC....or something....right?
  8. That's not to mention they have 36 individual cars to sort out, put together, and thread onto the track.
  9. The soccer game below Diamondback's helix is what's missing, correct?
  10. The new smokehouse building in Soak City looks to be pretty elaborate in design according to this map.
  11. Well, they gotta get the trains on somewhere. With the storage track in the shed, I imagine they have the ability to open it up.
  12. That park had those trains before SOB was remodeled in 2007. There's pictures on RCDB dated in 2005 with those trains. https://rcdb.com/967.htm
  13. I usually stay at the Best Western but I might search around for something even cheaper if I can find something.
  14. Most of my friends are die hard CP fans and will take every opportunity comparing CP with KI to not give KI credit when deserved (sans wooden coaster collection).
  15. To all those who think that 'it just got paint so it must be staying' is a good argument for a park keeping a ride, this is a good example of the contrary happening. Just sayin'.
  16. The other thing is I'm not doing MIA and CP on back to back days. I'm giving myself a day to travel from Muskegon to Port Clinton/Sandusky. A big reason for that as well as going with MIA first is pacing because of my medical ailments. CP is a big park which I'm using 2 days to tackle including a day for Fast Laning. I want to work my way up to that plus have some R&R time on the lake. I adore staying in Port Clinton. Its a beautiful town, its only a half hour drive to CP, and the hotels are easier to book.
  17. ^I'm grabbing maps anyways cuz I collect them. Also, I'm doing MIA first so I don't feel underwhelmed by it if I would have done CP first.
  18. ^Could it also be some sort of illusion that might make people feel like they're moving? Or a combination of illusions and movement?
  19. I've been leaning towards Backlot's departure recently. I think it's capacity will start to drag more and more on the park as it can attain more capacity with added rides. I think eventually they'll start to wane on keeping up on the special effects, at least if we use Boo Blasters as a current example. That's a ride that can't afford to lose any sort of charm it has on the public. There's so much you could put in that spot as well, like a flat package with a wild mouse coaster on top. I think Backlot holds that area back. I can see it being a very vibrant part of the park given some TLC, especially with how centered that area is on the park map.
  20. The updated map isn't available on the website yet, either on the park map page or within the education days page. EDIT: I found something interesting while reading through the HS education days packet. When asked on describing the shed, the following question is asked- Describe motions that you experience while in the shed. Thoughts?
