I hope it's a prank. Yes twitter and facebook are great, but they aren't a blog. Watching them say things like "it's a great day at the park", "great day to shoot the rapids", "loves watching millennium zoom through the park", etc., etc. just aren't nearly as informative as page long updates.

^Totally agree. There's just something to be said about an in-depth blog as opposed to a one-line twitter update. However, if you take a look through the blog archives, it definetly isn't what it used to be.

Here's a thought. What if they really are ending the blog, and they decided to announce it on April 1st because so many people would assume it was merely a prank? But the prank would be that, in reality, they actually are ending the blog?

Andy Kaufmann would be so proud.

I think, all and all, if this ends up being true, it was idiotic to have announced it on April 1st. So sue me if that's overreacting.

I have to agree with you Kyle2154. I have a feeling it was all a prank, but I guess we'll really find out if they totally take it off the website. I wish Tony would confirm this because I like seeing what's going on with Cedar Point both on and off season.

What's the big deal and time issue about posting one or two messages a week? They could get an intern to do this for crying out loud! I still think it's a joke, but am surprised they did not announce today that is was a joke.

One thing I just noticed on the blog that leads me to believe it was just a joke, is it still says "Next entry - coming soon"

Yes yesterday they announced that On-point is back. I really fell for that too, because I felt like the blog is part of my website checks everyday. If that was gone, I don't know what I'd do. Probably bring up old forms from a year ago on here. I don't do that often, but sometimes. So I'd like to say to Tony & Tyler now, that was a good joke. You got me on that one. :)

Never trust anything posted on April 1st. CP & LE RR board was pulled down on April 1st and brought back up on April 2nd to keep people from doing the same.

Bill, I think the CPlerr.com board issue on April 1st was more of me working on the server than stopping April Fools :)
