Cedar Fair New Trademark

I realized that, hence the winky face. I'd just like to point out, that that picture of the Valravn just seems to scream dive coaster to me. It would eat the hearts of Griffon and Sheikra.

Who would win in a fight? GateKeeper or Valravn? I wouldnt mind seeing the two duke it out. During the fight a huge shockwave (MF) knocks them both out. They both wake up and go at it again. The Gemini twins jump in. One distracts Gatekeeper while the other one cuts off his talon from behind with a sword. Iron Dragon flies up with Rougarou on his back and they fry GateKeeper to defend Valravn (after all they are his closest family). . .but wait . . .an F-5 tornado racing down the causeway(WT). They all take CCMR underground to safety. Millennium Force comes back and breaks up the tornado.

JUST wanted to throw this out there (not sure if this is Tony's debauchery..)

A quiz that FunTV played today asked:

"What new attraction will Cedar Point build for 2017?"

- Roller Coaster

- Thrill Ride

- Water Ride

- None of the above

The answer was none of the above, and said "you really didn't think we'd tell you, did you?"

I could be reading into this terribly, but I am very confident we won't see development in GTT area until 2017 season. This has to be a sign. Why wouldn't they mention 2016 instead?

Probably because one of those things IS going to debut for next season in 2016. He's talking about 2 years from now. They're screwing with our heads again, don't take FUNTV too seriously. It's just for....

You're reading too much into it. It's just who ever is making the FunTv slides having fun with you.

Not everything the park does is a clue or a riddle. They know how much people follow them and have fun with it.

Well, there will be a "big announcement" in August so I'll guess we'll find out then.

Yes... I think you are "reading into" it "terribly".


I'm a Marxist, of the Groucho sort.

I'm not sure if this was already posted, but i found it pretty interesting. I especially like it when he said,"We'll make a big announcement in August."

They always make a big announcement in August. Some are just bigger than others.

If a Valravn can appear as half raven half wolf, then it's parental units are Raptor and Rougarou.

And sometimes the announcements are announcements of announcements. ;)

I was surprised to see new grass seed down behind the wall where the Goodtime Theatre used to be. I'm a little confused by that.

It's probably to prevent erosion. CP wouldn't want mud washing into the midways during a heavy rain.

Obviously they aren't going to be building anything anytime in the near future behind that fence, cause if they were they'd never have planted that grass - way too expensive and hard to maintain to just tear it out in a year or 2.

Lash I suspect you may be right. They may have done it voluntarily strictly for their own benefit or it may have been part of a required erosion control plan given the amount of land that was disturbed during demolition.

Nah, too simple and logical of an explanation for the planting of grass, gotta be much more to it than that...

The grass was planted to attract goats which in turn will entice a Valravn to the park?

I don't see why they would have cleared all that space at one time if they weren't going to start cutting into the cake next year. The Turnpike Cars could have stayed if their plan was to use the land for 2017 or beyond.

I just don't see how the "they won't use this land until 2017" belief holds any water.

What is so hard about watering grass?

This whole idea about nothing happening JUST because they planted grass is a bit ridiculous to me. Why can't anyone fathom the idea that maybe the park didn't want a giant mud hole all summer? Grass seed can't be that expensive to throw down to help keep the area looking nice for a few months. Its a small cost for the overall picture that is at the center of the park.

Just last month at the Magic Kingdom, they removed two giant planters in the middle of the park and filled them in with 12" thick concrete ONLY to rip it out the month after to build new planters. They knew they were going to replace the planters but instead of having two holes in the middle of the park for a month, they spent money to temporarily fix that. The point I am making is that the guy in charge is from Disney so seeing something that doesn't make sense based on the last CEO's thought process doesn't get to be applied to the new guy.
