Beast1979 Posted September 12, 2008 Share Posted September 12, 2008 They're gonna put the ride's highest point in next week? Yey!!! And they are probably putting that piece in last so that they can celebrate it and whatnot, and they can make it an event or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tigellinus Posted September 12, 2008 Share Posted September 12, 2008 Hey Beast1979.... How sad is it that I haven't (and am not even planning on) checking the D-back webcam today?! But honestly, I know they're not working today, if the weather is like Indy's it sucks and the views won't be good anyway! The only reason to check is the off chance you get a screwed up shot that provides a good view of the areas we can't really see well...like the lift hill, which hopefully they'll re-position the webcam for next week!! Btw, why are you showing up online now?? You should be in school, getting your edjabucation!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RWildman424 Posted September 12, 2008 Share Posted September 12, 2008 Sorry if this has been mentioned earlier, I've been busy with school, and I don't have time right now to check the threads because of school. There are now construction pics in the photo gallery of the Diamondback site. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BoddaH1994 Posted September 12, 2008 Author Share Posted September 12, 2008 The post above is correct. The construction crews have Fridays off. They work almost every other day and work into the night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PKI_flyer Posted September 13, 2008 Share Posted September 13, 2008 I'm sorry but does anyone else think the mustard yellow supports are ugly? I wish they would have stuck with the tan throughout the ride. My personal opinion is that that those supports will ruin the atmosphere in the back part of the park. It's obvious that they have no love for The Crypt, those supports kill anything theming that was left it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Interpreter Posted September 13, 2008 Share Posted September 13, 2008 What? How can yellow supports possibly interfere with a steel box? Terpy, whose head hurts....The outside of Crypt themed? Please.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beast1979 Posted September 13, 2008 Share Posted September 13, 2008 I Think the alteration of the Yellow Supports on the Lift and tan everywhere else looks nice. I do think it's going a bit overboard making the bottom of the first Drop Supports Yellow to though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fanofki Posted September 14, 2008 Share Posted September 14, 2008 I do think it's going a bit overboard making the bottom of the first Drop Supports Yellow to though. Yeah, those were the ones I didn't care for too much, either. But I don't mind too much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fear the Offseason Posted September 14, 2008 Share Posted September 14, 2008 Looks like on the webcam, the angle that shows the side of the Crypt, they moved the webcam down a little bit and now you can see part of the Crypt's exit and the small yellow support. So maybe they are going to change it so we can see the lift hill for tomorrow! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old_Joe Posted September 15, 2008 Share Posted September 15, 2008 ...those supports kill anything theming that was left it. theming-schmeming I'm tired of us being called a theme park. What's wrong with amusement park? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RailRider Posted September 15, 2008 Share Posted September 15, 2008 ^ Very True, and as mentioned earlier how much themeing is there for the big metal box in Rivertown? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gigacoaster2k Posted September 15, 2008 Share Posted September 15, 2008 theming-schmeming I'm tired of us being called a theme park. What's wrong with amusement park? No joke. IMO a great coaster doesn't need a sugarcoating of theming to make it a great coaster. Slight theming is OK, but when you see it everywhere you turn in the queue, you have to wonder if they are trying to make up for something the coaster might be missing.

flightoffear1996 Posted September 15, 2008 Share Posted September 15, 2008 Probaly just fine. Since coasters are open wind probaly doesnt effect them too much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
