ThatGuy11 Posted August 2, 2013 Share Posted August 2, 2013 Just in case you all havent seen the blueprints yet.. thanks cincy. too lazy to go back & find it. I was too lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Browntggrr Posted August 2, 2013 Share Posted August 2, 2013 Really? Sure let's tie in this nice new coaster with a defunct coaster that was problematic from the start, severely injured people, and was in the news for all the wrong reasons. Lets not waste that potential.Defunct or not, it was still an extremely historic coaster. Historic for all the wrong reasons. KI is wise to distance themselves from any SoB association with the new ride. This is why it will most likely be from B&M who has a great track record of uptime & safety as opposed to Intamin. Imagine if KI did go with Intamin & the ride had to be "modified" a la: WT, Maverick or I-305 or have considerable downtime a la: TTD, KK, or WT? Park goers will immediately mention SoB in the confusion. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gravyboat Posted August 2, 2013 Share Posted August 2, 2013 Just in case you all havent seen the blueprints yet..thanks cincy. too lazy to go back & find it. Anyone know why Invertigo is covered on the blueprints. Check out 1:15 in the video. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chickenbowl Posted August 2, 2013 Share Posted August 2, 2013 Because its a fake blueprint. hahahahahahahahaha. Someone's in denial. Explain to me how in the world that could be fake?! Anybody who still thinks it is is either an idiot, or is completely delusional, just saying. I mean, the numbers match up, it's been proven to have actual engineering stamps, and has the same stamps and codes as drawings in the city office. People are freakin' crazy... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MantisMan Posted August 2, 2013 Share Posted August 2, 2013 Anyone know why Invertigo is covered on the blueprints. Check out 1:15 in the video. Hmmmm....didn't notice that my first viewing. That is odd. Not sure what they would be hiding since they obviously have no problem showing the new coaster. Very odd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thomasws6 Posted August 2, 2013 Share Posted August 2, 2013 Is there a removal in the future? Or is it covering something incriminating to the guy making the video? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone know why Invertigo is covered on the blueprints. Check out 1:15 in the video. It's not necessarily covered up.. I assume it was still drawn. I think it's just coincidence since they needed to pin that blue thing somewhere, and Invertigo isn't the new ride, so it was fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maglados Posted August 2, 2013 Share Posted August 2, 2013 Jdawg1998 - All I would have to say to that is a quote from Jurassic Park. " Cleaver girl." Revision clouds are polylines that consist of sequential arcs. They are used to call attention to parts of a drawing during the review stage.

Tanna Posted August 2, 2013 Share Posted August 2, 2013 You mean this one? It also says Terpy and Suhr. I thought it said "O'Terpy"' too.I can only think of that episode of Blackadder where he calls his Scottish cousin with red hair and even more wiry brows to battle a duel for him. Does Terpy have cantankerous lookalike relatives with a red Afro? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Browntggrr Posted August 2, 2013 Share Posted August 2, 2013 Blue prints are so easily made anymore, it could take an engineer minutes to come up with a fake. We do it with CAD everyday at work. A few keystrokes and moving the mouse and **PRESTO** a blueprint has been born. I'm not saying the mentioned print is fake or real, but to say with any certainty it is 100% fake or 100% real is just blowing hot air. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps we may get some deep theming if they are willing to produce these for the announcement. And I think SOB's station may be a part of that.

Stephen Posted August 2, 2013 Share Posted August 2, 2013 I read some of the pages last night and early this morning. I am not sure if I missed anything but has anyone thought about or mentioned that Dennis Speigel could be working the news crews instead of being wrong? Maybe he is just not telling what he really knows. It would seem that as long as he has been in this business he would know the difference between blue prints of a wing coaster and an inverted coaster. He could just be saying stuff and help keep things under wraps of what he really knows. Someone may say his reputation is on the line, but what reputation would he be more worried about? His public image or his image to the other theme parks that he is a consulatant to? It seems like he would want to keep their business and by completely diverting the public's attention by saying it is not what it actually is, then the theme parks would want to use him. Maybe. Im just throwing it out there. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Diamondback FOF Posted August 2, 2013 Share Posted August 2, 2013 I wonder why some of the footings or areas of track are drawn and outlined with a bush/ cloud looking figure.. Inside of the "cloud" is actual, real, pertinent, to scale information. There is no information outside of the cloud...just blank paper or other writing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YoungStud Posted August 2, 2013 Share Posted August 2, 2013 One can only hope mr. stengel came out of retirement to help with this massive coaster. One of the reasons that B&M coasters has been so cautiously engineered lately is because he is not there to design. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, SoB had many notible "-est's" and a loop. It was also those same "-est's" that proved to be SoB's downfall from day one. Now the ride, along with those records are history. Included in that history is: the amount of money spent to "fix" it, the amount of downtime, and the amount of injuries the ride caused. No park wants to associated with that. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
