rcwizard13 Posted June 20, 2013 Share Posted June 20, 2013 ^^ That is great. Now we just need someone to mention it again and see how he replies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diamondback2112 Posted June 20, 2013 Share Posted June 20, 2013 During my trip today I noticed the fences have in fact been moved closer, and new signage along with it. I could not get a good view through the fence so I decided to ride AE to get a better view. Noticed large circular rebar down in the valley, and construction is going at a much quicker pace lately, so it looks as if we are about to see where the next stage of construction leads us. I'm guessing we should know a lot more about the layout within the next 30 days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XjoshhyX Posted June 20, 2013 Share Posted June 20, 2013 Well, exclusive news from Cedar Point. Every single dip-n-dots guy seems to know for a fact that we will be getting a B&M coaster that will break records. Ride ops say a Leviathan type giga, and others say another wing coaster. Not sure who I trust more. It is funny though, that they know more about our new ride than we do. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheCrypt Posted June 20, 2013 Share Posted June 20, 2013 Has anyone toyed around with the possibility that Banshee may be used as a Haunt name? Perhaps Banshee will replace Massacre Manor. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoeter Posted June 20, 2013 Share Posted June 20, 2013 ^^ That is great. Now we just need someone to mention it again and see how he replies. The former SOB station will be used for a Haunt attraction this year and beyond. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They don't usually trademark their Haunts. As a matter of fact, I don't think a single one is trademarked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheCrypt Posted June 20, 2013 Share Posted June 20, 2013 It is almost july. There is no new b&m track at the factory. Its pointing to a intamin.Right. Because there aren't hundreds of other manufacturers out there like Zierer, Gerstlauer, PTC, RMC, Premier, or Vekoma that could be creating this coaster. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adventuro Posted June 20, 2013 Share Posted June 20, 2013 Maybe they have told B&M to be more secretive and the track is being stored at another location. I think this time around they don't want it leaking. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LordSkippy Posted June 20, 2013 Share Posted June 20, 2013 It is almost july. There is no new b&m track at the factory. Its pointing to a intamin. Do you have any idea how long it takes that plant to crank out enough track for one coaster? If you do, please clue me in because I don't, but if I remember correctly (and sometimes I don't) Gatekeeper track wasn't manufactured at this time last year.

homestar92 Posted June 20, 2013 Share Posted June 20, 2013 It's worth noting that if we do indeed get an invert, then it is quite possible KI will have successfully clenched 3 of my top 5 spots in my favorite Steel coasters list. Which, as it happens right now are Vortex, Magnum XL-200, Gatekeeper, Flight of Fear, and Afterburn. I could see a nice invert pushing Afterburn out of that list. Though Raptor failed to do so. We shall see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YoungStud Posted June 20, 2013 Share Posted June 20, 2013 This is not paramount, we will get a coaster from a MAJOR design firm. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They don't usually trademark their Haunts. As a matter of fact, I don't think a single one is trademarked. Not individual houses, but they've apparently trademarked "Amusement Dark" as a potential new slogan for the Cedar Fair Haunts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XjoshhyX Posted June 20, 2013 Share Posted June 20, 2013 Just putting my 2 cents back in on the ride for next year. I really hope we get an inverted woody that breaks records too. Take Hades and just destroy its intensity and make it even more intense. Thats just me though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diamondback96 Posted June 20, 2013 Share Posted June 20, 2013 I think I've figured out what's going in. It's an inverted looping launched flying wooden giga coaster made by Intamin with green steel frames for the inversions with Diamondback-style trains and themed to Scooby-Doo. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
