Creed Bratton Posted July 30, 2013 Posted July 30, 2013 Okay I've got to say this because this stuff has been brought up numerous times. Just because you see something on Twitter doesn't mean it's true. Rather, just because you see something on the internet, that doesn't mean it's true. You have to check the sources. Just because said @wesisrad user said there was a teaser and has been talking to @coasterrumors doesn't mean that they know what's going on. From further inspection, @wesisrad isn't a verified source nor a official twitter for anything. Neither is @coasterrumors.Upon further inspection, Coaster Rumors has a link on their twitter account for their website: http://coasterrumors.blogspot.com/ which is simply a blog that features parody "news stories." So I ask, are they reliable? NO! Can we stop linking them on here as a source of info that's not even info? Again, please please please please please....did I say please? check your references before posting them and believing that they're the absolute truth. 5
CharleyTheDinosaur Posted July 30, 2013 Posted July 30, 2013 Just wondering. Is there a reason many inverts don't have steeper drops. I'm guessing it has something to do with the stress on the track at the bottom of the drop. I agree with Youngstud that if it is an invert I'd like to see something with a steep drop. A +150ft 90 degree first drop on an invert now that would be awesome. Or does this already exist?

Hoeter Posted July 30, 2013 Posted July 30, 2013 Anyone think whatever is for the new ride may be in The Crypt's building? So why would they be pouring footers in a different area? Yes to quote you and YoungStud hit the nail on the head. There's a big building not currently being used, big enough to store track, supports, and what have you. Just popped into my mind earlier while reading this here forum...
secondson Posted July 30, 2013 Posted July 30, 2013 Nothing new don was just tricking us. I highly doubt that's the case. On the contrary, I think it's the people who read more into his tweets than they should who are tricking themselves. 5
THE_BEASTmaster Posted July 30, 2013 Posted July 30, 2013 Hey guys I found a picture that might be the logo for the new ride Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 2 That's a logo for a metal band called Banshee. I've seen it before.
The Interpreter Posted July 30, 2013 Posted July 30, 2013 Staging, mobe and demobe are huge costs in construction projects. No contractor is going to use The Crypt building to store 2014 materials. Lack of access, haul costs, security. There are hundreds of reasons this makes no sense. It'd be like storing cups for Kings Island LaRosa's at Coney of Ohio. It could be done, but it's too expensive and makes no sense. 6

I've seen it before. Yes I found that out when I realized all of what I posted turned out to not be reliable.
The Interpreter Posted July 30, 2013 Posted July 30, 2013 So, what happened to the coaster Twisted Sisters when the band Twisted Sister objected? A band called Banshee. Imagine that. 1
RingMaster Posted July 30, 2013 Posted July 30, 2013 Hey guys I found a picture that might be the logo for the new ride Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 2 That's a logo for a metal band called Banshee. I've seen it before. Actually, it's the logo to one of Netherworld's (based in Atlanta, GA) haunted attractions called Banshee: http://www.fearworld.com/haunts.php I was waiting for someone to bring this up as someone on here has said logo as their profile picture. 2
The Interpreter Posted July 30, 2013 Posted July 30, 2013 Prior use? And for an attraction? Terp, who likes to ask questions...sometimes inconvenient questions.
Existential Posted July 30, 2013 Posted July 30, 2013 Banshee sounds so sexist...like 'ban her' or something. I see a lawsuit. 1

LordSkippy Posted July 30, 2013 Posted July 30, 2013 While we're on the subject of things never seen on an inverted coaster, look at this piece of brilliant concept art: For a supposed inverted wild mouse coaster Arrow was developing.Maybe we'll see something like this for 2014...? Maybe...?Ah, who am I kidding. Of course not. 1
SonofBaconator Posted July 30, 2013 Posted July 30, 2013 I honestly have no idea S.O.B. who is eating a Snickers
Khan Posted July 30, 2013 Posted July 30, 2013 Banshee sounds so sexist...like 'ban her' or something. I see a lawsuit. I desperately want to think this is a joke 8
Existential Posted July 30, 2013 Posted July 30, 2013 Is that a break run right after that first little dip? ^^
Existential Posted July 30, 2013 Posted July 30, 2013 Banshee sounds so sexist...like 'ban her' or something. I see a lawsuit.I desperately want to think this is a joke One would be wise to suppose that. 1
The Interpreter Posted July 30, 2013 Posted July 30, 2013 Is that a break run right after that first little dip? ^^ A what? Terp, who doesn't like coasters that break. 9
Khan Posted July 30, 2013 Posted July 30, 2013 Banshee sounds so sexist...like 'ban her' or something. I see a lawsuit.I desperately want to think this is a joke One would be wise to suppose that. I kind of assumed as much, however, with the nonsense that takes over this thread late at night...assuming would be very unwise 1
sheikra_rocks Posted July 30, 2013 Posted July 30, 2013 Drove past CSF a few moments ago.... It appears that the flatbed trailer with blue supports are still out front. Inside, I noticed what appeared to be LARGE supports. Probably about the size of Diamondback or Leviathan's tallest, in terms of thickness. I did not take photos as I just drove past and got a glance. The doors were open and people were still working at around 6:30pm when I passed by. 4
The Interpreter Posted July 30, 2013 Posted July 30, 2013 You will find at least one poster here very unassuming.
FoF96" Posted July 30, 2013 Posted July 30, 2013 So, what happened to the coaster Twisted Sisters when the band Twisted Sister objected?A band called Banshee.Imagine that.If you mean the name then it was renamed to Twisted Twins. FoF96". Who lives in Louisville. EDIT: rethorical question...
Existential Posted July 30, 2013 Posted July 30, 2013 Understood bro...understood. I try to limit my posting to when I'm a little tipsy...to kind of understand what the goings on are.
