Dumpster is a registered trademark. As such, it is always capitalized here. As in Rolling Dumpster. I miss that ride.

I just came across the fact that "Dumpster" was a registered trademark yesterday. I remember thinking, "I wonder if Terpy knows that." Apparently he does. :)

  • The thing I like most about this coaster is probably something many haven't noticed or may have overlooked. It has nothing to do with the track, trains, elements, launch etc. It has everything to do

    A few observations- 1. LSM launch 2. Like the interaction it has with the launch and first inversion around the area and then has a part that finishes with a terrain section, nice. 3. I'm surprise

    Truly did anyone expect Holiday World to spend $22 Million? That is twice as much as any capital expenditure in the past. The potential reopening of an SLC will not be much competition next year. B

In Terp's line of work, he has received more than one communication from said company. Some think his writings are best kept in one of those brand containers.

Like many TPR members have said, the oval indents on the footers match the appearance of Banshee's footers during construction. We could be looking at a B&M family coaster.

I bet they lose it in the next 5 years.

That sounds incredibly boring.

I had no clue Dumpster was trademarked. Fixed. :)

And those definitely look like B&M footers/footings/whatever to me.

It was mentioned in the thread with the pics that orange track has been spotted at Clermont Steel.

Interesting if true.

Jell-O. Band-Aid. Photoshop. Google.

All still trademarks.

So far.

Of those you listed, Band-Aid is most surprising to me. Dumpster I think is more surprising than any of those though. I would have never guessed that.

So what's a generic word for a Dumpster? Giant metal trash holder contraption?

collection bin, waste bin, collection container garbage container, garbage receptacle, etc...

All of those trigger "garbage can" in my mind more so than a big ol' Dumpster.

that is because that is what your most likely used to using on a daily basis (which would apply to a great majority of the population) however while I don't deal with them directly, sit in enough construction meetings where they talk about the placement of Dumpsters, how many Dumpsters they need, what kind of Dumpsters they need and you'll hear a lot of different names that I listed above, and then some; never heard to them referred to as a garbage can though.

I use the term Rumpke when referring to Dumpsters.

Which in itself is worse than the non-capitalization of said waste disposal container.

Alright here's my thesis with the past few "leads". First off, in regards to the storm, I personally believe that it is an allusion, and an analogy for Thunder Run and Lightning Run both now "rocking" the boat that was added this year, The MayFlower. Secondly, the children personally sound like the enthusiasts, but something about the posts makes since of this. With the older children being able to go top side, it was referring to those who got the word on the 66 Days at Sea and those who witnessed a few events by admin. Third, to the big bang of the whole op, the attraction. I personally think this will be an B&M family attraction for 2015. Invert or not, it will be fun for everyone, with possibly a few inversions and a few water effects scattered around.

In any circumstance, the addition would be amazing for 2015 at Holiday World.

Doesn't Band-Aid run a commercial that says Band-Aid brand band aids....

A possibly large B&M at Holiday World? Can they afford that? If they can, count me a bit suprised...and those footers do kind of look similar to what we saw at Banshee last year.

They can if its not a brand new B&M...... :ph34r:

Doesn't Band-Aid run a commercial that says Band-Aid brand band aids....

No.

It's Band-Aid brand adhesive bandages.

Suggesting a hard rock park move?

Hard Rock is a registered trademark. As such, it is always capitalized here.

I posted that and then after my shower, thought hmm I should look. Oh well, I am probably losing my hearing..

Does anyone else find it hilarious that capitalization is such a ridiculous crime on here?

While I understand why it is done it is the most annoying thing I have ever encountered on the Internet in nearly 20 years, lol. Not to mention this particular place is the ONLY one I have EVER encountered it on in all these years.

Carry on. :)

Really hoping for HW's first major steel coaster.

Hey, I just noticed your username was fixed!

Thought this was funny...

From the Holiblog:

Captain Obvious here thinks that the ride may involve some sort of "drop."

HoliBlog post by Leah: http://www.holidayworld.com/holiblog/2014/07/05/world-leahs-lens/

According to that, beginning sometime this coming week we're going to get a live streaming webcam of the construction site. Now that's cool.

Also of interest, apparently they have a major delivery scheduled for July 25, the day after the announcement. My guess: coaster track!

I like her jab at KI whether or not it's directed to KI

While we could do what other parks have done and put up a fence (which probably wouldn’t do much good anyway with that nice spectator tower)

But we have a nice spectator tower too!
