Countdown Clock

Nice touch. Should start it in November next off season.

Thanks for that guys!

Nice touch indeed. If they started it in November, it would be too much for some members to handle.

Wait... there is only 11 days left until Cedar Point opens? Wow... where have I been? I thought it was still at least a month away...

Take that down it is making it prolong the agnony

I actually made one of those for my personal use once... http://www.geocities.com/swimmerkev/cpopen.html

I liked the countdown GTTP had last year(before VM & GTTP merged). But this one is fine. *** Edited 4/25/2005 10:23:38 PM UTC by TTD 120mph***

what did they have last year

PointBuzz didn't even exist until after opening day last year.

I think he means GTTP?

Yes, that's what I meant. :P
I'll edit it.
The point is that it was a cool countdown. *** Edited 4/25/2005 10:24:06 PM UTC by TTD 120mph***

What was it like?

Is countdown watching as bad as webcam watching?

I can't remember exactly but if I remember right, it had a cool pic of Dragster next to it and said something like"____days until Cedar Point opens"(Although i think it was different).
The big difference between that one and the one now is it only counted days.

Yes, then people can post play-by-plays of the clock and the Web cams.

"I saw the clock hit 5 months!!!!!111 OMFG a bird pooped in front of teh webcam!!!1111 LOL!!!!11 ROFLMAO!!!1111"

People already do play-by-plays of countdowns...

Don't get me wrong, the clock is fun and all, and so are Web cams. They are not, however, things to stare at for hours on end, the way some people do here.

Seconds to go...
