^ I think that's a screen grab from the Banshee announcement. The date says 08.08.13.

Wow I feel moronic. I completely overlooked that detail. carry on

Well I guess my memory is not that great. Lol. I just hope it's not on 8/4, because I have a trip planned to HW and I want to record the KI announcement. Still working on live stream. Apparently my dslr is one of the fewer newer ones that is not good for livefeed. And I don't have a extra $200 for a capture card right now. I'm sure I could do it with my iPhone, just not sure how good it could be.

Somewhat relevant to the discussion: I just rode my first RMC yesterday when I visited Six Flags Great America and rode Goliath twice. That thing is absolutely insane and is making me all the more excited to see what Greg and Don announce for next year!

Why would there be a countdown to the announcement? I never recalled one in the past. The park will notify the media and I'm sure their Twitter page.

There have definitely been countdowns for coaster announcements though. I remember staying up for Diamondback's website countdown.. and then pretty sure nothing happened until the park announced it later in the day haha

I remember that well. I stayed up until it hit 0 at midnight, and it made a loud noise and then reset itself to the correct time.

 So exactly how much do they reveal when they make a coaster announcement?

Sorry for the double post.... At the Banshee announcement they should a virtual ride of Banshee and also sold the new Banshee gear directly afterward

 So I assume they also give the specs as far as height, length, and speed?

Here's a video of Banshee's announcement, from the KICentral YouTube channel:

And Goliath is the weakest of their coasters (that I've ridden...but I think it's a pretty popular opinion). Although I don't feel like this will be RMC, I definitely would be thrilled if it is.

Well if it is Don making the announcement I sure hope he doesn't reveal to much. Anything beyond maybe taking his shirt off will be just Yuk.

There's wood being delivered in the parking lot right now.

Oooh are they pointing the webcams at the wood? I know that sounded dirty...lol

Save the real excitement for when the erecting starts.

 I think lumber is the correct term:) haha   Do people go to the lumber yard and say "yeah....I need some wood".....

 

   On the other hand, I've never heard the term lumber coaster either...

Proof or it didn't happen.

Just kidding or am I?

KIC will never know.

I think whoever said wood was being delivered was just bluffing. He wanted me to make a joke out of it. Lol!

 

It's amazing no one else here has noticed the trailer loaded with wood sitting in the far north parking lot. I wonder what that's for?

My Daddy would have told me:

"For little boys to ask questions about.

Worked, too!"

Used to frustrate the Dickens out of me!

Oh, to hear that again!

 

 

Huh!? Sorry, can't interpret terp's drunk texting.

He's not lying!

I'm surprised I was the first to notice it and post it yesterday. I guess it must have been just recently delivered.

Studs for the new employee break room.

Well that is certainly interesting.

I wonder if the Studs are Young or old.

Alright my bad. I wonder where they are going to drop off their wood. Lol!

Very interesting indeed.... anyone been on the train today?

Wait wouldn't there be mo

re than one truck load of wood I would think they would ship as much of it as possible not just one load. I'm saying just a coinenedece
