Seriously, the site is craptastic. Its sitemap.xml file is actually for the Cedar Fair site. It does redirects for random URL's instead of 404's so search engines don't know what to do. You can manipulate their SEO to link to whatever. Not very strong application development.

The 3 names really threw me for a loop. I'm really not sure what to expect now. It's pretty certain there's going to be a wing coaster but I'm starting to think that there could be more than one ride.

^^ That link used to work a few hours ago and not redirect to the main site.

People need to learn to screen cap things more often.

Screen cap or it didn't happen. :)

I DID! ^^^

I'll have it up in a minute.

Although, mine is from google cache. But I swear on my life that www.cedarpoint.com/gatekeeper was there.

Here it is....

Also, if you look in the mid, left hand side of the page it says, "Something BIG is gonna happen. Hac risus enim turpis elit. In sit pinatibus."

So I googled trying to find a translation and this is what came up on google.

Perhaps its an anagram?

Are you kidding me? It's lorem ipsum dummy text. It doesn't mean anything. It's used for placeholding.

It's taller than mantis and it's a creature according to the new photos.

On a side note has anyone heard any grumblings out of the B&M Fabrication plant lately ?

Hang on, let me check the satellite pictures...

Exactly what I said earlier, not sure if anyone was listening. ;\

But yeah, they use that stuff to fill in empty space where text is supposed to/is planned to go.

It strikes me that a lot of this fun, treasure-hunt style marketing is aimed primarily at us, the tiny contingent of enthusiasts--the only ones crazy enough and motivated enough to parse all these clues. I find this very cool.

They just get a kick out of screwing with us.

^haha I'm getting that impression as well.

Thats not an impression. Thats a fact.

They probly find just as much enjoyment reading these forums as we love talking about it.

Don't know if this was brought up yet but..

Is any other park getting a wing coaster this year? Cause personally I don't like the green color since it'll be so close to Raptor.
