SonofBaconator Posted June 23, 2013 Share Posted June 23, 2013 I'm so confused. I haven't been on this thread for days so I feel like I have a lot of studying to catch up on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Interpreter Posted June 23, 2013 Share Posted June 23, 2013 Many of the things (and some of the "posters") that were here no longer are. Miss a day, miss a lot. Or not. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shark6495 Posted June 23, 2013 Share Posted June 23, 2013 If its not here now, did it ever truly exist? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Interpreter Posted June 23, 2013 Share Posted June 23, 2013 Yes. I seed it. Or at least some of it. Terp does sleep. Guffaw. And work. And sometimes even recreate (as in recreation\play). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diamondbacker27 Posted June 23, 2013 Share Posted June 23, 2013 http://www.parkz.com.au/photo/4308-Tatsu.html Could we see a helix like this one located where the 3 footers are? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CharleyTheDinosaur Posted June 23, 2013 Share Posted June 23, 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. They'll have lawyers and morticians camped outside the exit ready for your business. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diamondbacker27 Posted June 23, 2013 Share Posted June 23, 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. Neither of you seemed to mention Mack Rides, which is a company that I haven't heard quite a few of you name. Remember, Cedar Fair did install a Mack wild mouse coaster at Knotts last year and it sure was a Coast Rider! Along with that, Mack is also kind-of into the dark ride business...Amusement Dark anyone? Not saying it would be a wild-mouse, just throwing out the idea of getting a Mack ride in general, whether that be a wild mouse or launched coaster or even a Mack dark ride. You can throw the Theming out the door, because sadly.. this isn't Paramount anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe the background with Disney will change that. The area they're building in seems perfect for theming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Interpreter Posted June 23, 2013 Share Posted June 23, 2013 Playing country songs and reusing White Water Landing's station is theming at the Disney level? Who knew? 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hank Posted June 23, 2013 Share Posted June 23, 2013 The GP could have as much fun as they want vandalizing it. Although, would it really be vandalizing if it's the theme? Perhaps they should let people draw on supports, fences, etc. nearby. How about sticking used gum on one of the posts in the queue line? Such a novel idea!

The Interpreter Posted June 23, 2013 Share Posted June 23, 2013 At Geauga Lake, this was out of control, especially in the Vekoma SLC station. The park even put up bulletin boards and asked that graffiti be restricted to them. It wasn't. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hank Posted June 23, 2013 Share Posted June 23, 2013 I hope everyone knows I wasn't being serious. I just remember the gum wall in The Beast's queue line - it was awful! Please friends - keep the park clean. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
