Gatekeeper construction time lapse

I'm taking a lot of heat for my comment But if you can't stand the heat, stay out of the kitchen :)

I just meant that those trees didn't effect the atmosphere (pun intended) of the park like trees that have been removed in other areas of the park in the past.

I didn't even notice that trees were missing just by looking at the webcam. I didn't notice until I watched the time lapse.

I am a bit surprised that the tree lovers are not screaming.

The "tree lovers" have been commenting. The most recent example was a whole 4 posts above yours.

Thanks for pointing that out. We all appreciate your effort with keeping us all on the straight and narrow path on this website.

Just a question I am trying to put the web cam image on my desktop but it won't refresh like it used to. I have Windows XP and I was wondering how I could maybe make it refresh :)


First rollback on Dragster July 23 2003 since then 15

I used to do that. But, even with active desktop, you have to press F5 or Right click and click refresh.

The camera didn't catch it, but here are some stills.
Before: http://bit.ly/SSBefore
After: http://bit.ly/SSAfter

If you flip between those before and after shots, there is smoke on the after, thats not on the before. Don't know if its from the fall or explosives.


GATEKEEPER-I came, I rode, I was mildly disappointed; until a second ride (rear left) put GateKeeper back on the...it's a nice ride list.

Yup, it came down between shots. nothing mid drop :(

And then when did the white buildings/tents disappear?

Probably sometime yesterday, as they were used for the triathlon that took place on Sunday.


And then one day you find ten years have got behind you
No one told you when to run, you missed the starting gun

There was one more capture between the 2 you got. Your before is 7:27:51 and your after is 7:30:51. There was also a capture at 7:29:21. The camera must be set to refresh ever 90 seconds. But, it still didn't grab anything. I made this yesterday for some facebook fun. These are the pics imediatly before and after.

My husband was wondering, since they are making "GateKeeper" will they make a roller coaster called "KeyMaster"? haha

yeah, hopefully it picks up a little. It would also be cool if they moved one of the other webcams so we could get a better shot of the work.
