Maverick44 Posted July 28, 2016 Posted July 28, 2016 Can anyone confirm what that smoke is behind the fence?? 3 Quote
dragsterguy21 Posted July 28, 2016 Posted July 28, 2016 This name will allow for some really good theming. How would you theme a ride to a cat? Cedar Fair has been doing a good job with their theming recently and this will be a good night ride contender with The Beast if the theming fits the name. 3 Quote
dragsterguy21 Posted July 28, 2016 Posted July 28, 2016 The smoke fits the theme very well @Maverick44 1 Quote

supertrooper Posted July 28, 2016 Posted July 28, 2016 She sits next to me at work and overheard me talking about the announcement. She didn't know I was an enthusiast (she's not). She told me the type and theme (which I had already guessed). She texted her friend and asked for more info. He just got back to her about an hour ago, but only with the name. She s friends with a member of the marketing team 3 Quote
Maverick44 Posted July 28, 2016 Posted July 28, 2016 The smoke fits the theme very well @Maverick44 Name guess is now Wildfire. 3 Quote
dragsterguy21 Posted July 28, 2016 Posted July 28, 2016 The smoke fits the theme very well @Maverick44 Name guess is now Wildfire. It wasn't smoke, it was fog if that helps. 6 Quote

KIWhistleblower Posted July 28, 2016 Posted July 28, 2016 It's an underground ride Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 2 Quote
BeastlyBanshee Posted July 28, 2016 Posted July 28, 2016 Based on the fog/smoke I'll make my final guess for the name to be Smoking Gun- themed to Cowboys and Indians and that's where those axes come in. Can't wait to find out. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 2 Quote
AdventureExpress35 Posted July 28, 2016 Posted July 28, 2016 Here's a crazy idea. The seven dwarfs mine train at WDW has swinging cars that look like logs. I know AE Is a mine train but maybe this is a woodie with swinging log cars? 3 Quote
WailsLikeABanshee Posted July 28, 2016 Posted July 28, 2016 On the train. Pictures coming soon. Sent from my LGL33L using Tapatalk 5 Quote

MadMaverick Posted July 28, 2016 Posted July 28, 2016 How about a RMC with a 95 degree first drop. Or maybe B&M first shot at a wood coaster. 4 Quote
presto123 Posted July 28, 2016 Posted July 28, 2016 What if it's a Banshee like fog in the woods at night except the fog is called mist or something. Something like Nocturnal Mist? I no longer think this is themed to a monster or creature name. All the clues still probably wouldn't tie in though:) 2 Quote
upstop Posted July 28, 2016 Posted July 28, 2016 Something to get you revved up for the announcement... Lol https://youtu.be/LLuUz7QIsWQ Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 2 Quote
JCJTheHurricane Posted July 28, 2016 Posted July 28, 2016 First time poster, however, i've been reading for a long time now, and figured I should probably just make an account. I hope everyone else is just as excited to hear the announcement tonight as I am. I only live about 20 minutes away from the park so my sister and I are going to head over there tonight at 8:30. While I was originally hoping for an RMC, we recently went to Dollywood, rode Thunderhead and now I honestly would be happy with either GCI or RMC. Btw my prediction: GCI Length: 3,000 to 4,000 ft. Height: 150 to 200 ft. Elements: lots of airtime and some 90 degree banking Originally liked Splintercat but now i'm second guessing it. 3 Quote
Tanna Posted July 28, 2016 Posted July 28, 2016 Just from the graphics of the "Lurking" poster, there's one I like about Ohio's reputation that showed up in the Banshee and hopefully this ride, too. I like the park embracing Ohio's distinct strangeness. Ohio has a reputation of being supernaturally creepy. The show "Eerie, Indiana" was originally supposed to take place in Ohio. We have Mushmelon kids, Screaming Mimi Bridge, Dogmen, Lizardmen, and Ghost Trains, and that's just a few. Hopefully the theming of the ride will match the poster graphics. 2 Quote

Can't wait to find out. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk I do not think they will use the word "gun" any longer due to all the shootings and such that are going on and the great gun debate. I just don't see that happening at all. 1 Quote
WailsLikeABanshee Posted July 28, 2016 Posted July 28, 2016 Please forgive me, I'm probably gonna double post. Also line has already started. It's up into The Crypt's queue, and around to WWC's. So, I'm gonna be in line for a while! Sent from my LGL33L using Tapatalk 5 Quote

I have Eerie Indiana series on DVD and live in Indiana, but I don't think I've even watched any of it. I have probably owned it for a decade or more. ha! 2 Quote

KI FANATIC 37 Posted July 28, 2016 Posted July 28, 2016 This has been a great topic to follow all year! It's great to escape from the real world for a bit and just read comments about your passions. I really do love reading everyone's posts. It's great to learn from people that know so much more about the topic at hand than yourself, and that is the case for me. Thanks to everyone. I look forward to tonight! 5 Quote
BruceWayneWins Posted July 28, 2016 Posted July 28, 2016 What's that grass themed Big Foot that "lives" in Ohio? Perhaps that? No...no way. 1 Quote
