Cedar Point 2013

That doesn't make it any more or less likely to be real. If I were hoaxing concept art, printing it and then photographing it would be good way to minimize all the tell-tale artifacts.

Seriously? The quality of that artwork is horrendous. I'd be shocked and disappointed if CP allowed such terrible artwork onto a T-shirt.

Really? I think it looks awesome

Well like it or not that's the designs kids are going for these days.

^I wouldn't go that far. It is pretty sketchy at best.

It might be the picture quality if it is actually a picture. Maybe we could ask for a higher quality, non shaky shot?

I have to agree here. It looks like something I would have come up with in 8th grade.

If anything, I would take it to be preliminary designs.

It looks like something Napoleon Dynamite would've drawn. All it needs is a liger.

New for 2013: Tater Tot Stand

Ride logos go through dozens of variations, specifically for use across the board on t-shirts, merchandise and web. Those logos most definitely did not come out of P&D.

We're close to the announcement, so everyone's going bonkers giving their thoughts an impressions (myself included).

As for the name, I'd be shocked if it was "Lotan." If you have to explain and define the name to the public, that's a problem. Just sayin'.

At least people generally know that "Leviathan" and "Behemoth" are names that are synonymous with everything "big."

Hyrda is a great name for a coaster. What about that one?

^Not sure what Hyrda is. ;) But fans of Dorney already knew the story of Heracles and seeing that Hydra was named to reference the coaster it replaced, it stands to reason there wasn't too much need for an explanation.

This isn't real is it?

Hence the extreme unpopularity of coasters with incomprehensible names like Sheikra, Montu, Kraken, Gwazi, Alpengeist, Verbolten, Drachen Fire...

I actually like when they come up with names that don't have a high association with them, it makes them that more unique.

Thank you for doing a better job of that than I could.

But if it was fake why would they go through all the trouble of putting the greek words at the bottom?

Because what good is a hoax if you half-ass it?

But...these are rides that, in the context of their parks and themed settings, have suitable names. I'm speaking in the context of Cedar Point only. If I'm wrong when it's announced, I'm wrong. But CP probably wouldn't go there.
