So it is on the left. Hmm, perhaps OrionKI, but I doubt it. I still think whatever is being spelled is going to be the marketing hashtag.

I definitely need to see a photo with the posters in relation to each other.

I wonder if they are spelling out the hashtag they are planning to market the ride with. Maybe it is #KIOrion or #KIOrion2020? EDIT: Depending on how much space is between the signs, if any at all, perhaps #KIPolaris? If the letters aren't debuting in order, that is.

The reason why I like the idea of teasers is to perhaps hint at the ride's name. I like the names Orion and Polaris, but will it be either or those or something else entirely? So there are some mysteries left to speculate. Tiny mysteries perhaps, but mysteries nonetheless.

Wait, is this is a clue?

My guess is those cannons would become operator controlled rather than being free to guests.* *If that's possible.

In the past, haven't they given notice a week ahead of the announcement?

I don't think it is too much of a stretch to say the GP greatly outnumbers the employees. They do their best to keep up, but sometimes the number of people who'd rather pee on the seat and say it is someone else's job to clean it up than properly aim and clean up after themselves is far too much. I try to keep positive with my views on the park. I know I added to this negativity in another thread. I was speaking out for something I thought was important and those speaking out against me were doing the same on their end. But regardless, I apologize for adding to the muck.

Yeah and we have to bust into Area 51 to get them!

^There appears to be a floating object in the sky? Is it a UFO perhaps or did the train fly off the tracks.

I agree. This is the kind of experience that is only good for a mild kick and people will happily do it for a quarter. But if you charge too much, the average person will probably just walk on by.

I blame the general public. It is very much possible to use the restroom without spreading urine and feces onto the seat and/or floor. I'd reckon more often than not, it is someone who is capable and should know better.

You must offer up a sacrifice in a blood ritual that can only performed on an autumn night when the sky is dark and the moon is red.

They've been teasing this for years. If you take the O from Vortex, the R from Racer, the I from Invertigo, the O from Drop Tower, and the N from Banshee, it spells ORION.

It would be great if the teasers were about "storming X-Base."

That could also be the most frugal option.

Just because someone speaks out against behavior they see as inappropriate and/or regressive doesn't mean they are offended. I'd imagine almost everyone here has at least one cause that personally matters to them and are vocal about in some capacity.

JubJester made a similar statement. He front-loaded it with "If true." I didn't. In retrospect, I probably should have. I am mostly just bothered by the difference in how the accused is discussed as opposed to the accuser in these situations. With the former, it's "You're condemning this poor man who could be innocent" while with the latter, it is "Why did it take her so long to come forward? Hmmm.. Well I am not saying she is lying, but I am not saying she is telling the truth either." Maybe it seems like I am "pretending to hold the moral high ground," but I am just trying express how I genuinely feel on the matter. If the accused is telling the truth then she may gone through some serious trauma in a place where she should feel safe, and I keep thinking about that. (And yes, I understand that can go the other way.)

You know what ruins lives? Sexual harassment. I'm not the only one who sounds like they have their mind made up. And you need to learn to get over yourself, because almost every post you make here reads like you think you're better than everyone.

According to the article, she is suing for sexual harassment, but the articles states: .. which can be considered sexual assault, as it was allegedly non-consensual contact in a sexual manner.

At least I don't react to accusations of sexual assault with indifference...

Agreed. Due process is a given. Bringing it up seems unsympathetic. What if this happened to someone you care about? A little empathy goes a long way and if you can't do that, just don't come in this thread. Especially if you are here to actively mock people who are defending the accuser. Regarding a sexual assault case, that's really not a good look to have..

I am pretty sure you it will let you right back in. I have definitely left the park without getting my hand stamped and returned with another party with no issue whatsoever.

There are many reasons why it takes people so long to come forward. Fear, embarrassment, shame, or the thought that no one would believe you. Sometimes it is because they feel powerless and/or they feel their abusers has something they can use against them. Sometimes the abuser actually backs off for a while before starting things up again or the behavior is gradual and gets worse over time. And there's always those situations that start off mutual until a boundary is crossed and one person no longer feels comfortable and the other won't back off. Also to be fair, she allegedly reported this behavior to a higher-up and nothing was done about it. So there's that.

I think Coney Gas Station would be an excellent name for a rollercoaster.
