Filler rides?? Im guessing that means flat rides. Sounds great but what about the rumored big project in 2002? I hate to tell you but if Cedar Point doesnt build a coaster for two years they are going to be passed up fast. They may be passed next year. As for new rides, the motion simulator sounds great, and I think we NEED a dark ride!!! Cedar Point, king of rides, doesnt have a dark ride. I think that should change also.
Just my 2 cents

"I hate to tell you but if Cedar Point doesnt build a coaster for two years they are going to be passed up fast."
Passed up? What, you mean that record of most rides, or the one about most coasters?
...who cares? I mean, really, who cares? Do you think people will stop going to Cedar Point just because Six Flags Magic Mountain or PKI has more coasters? To be frank, hell no.
Just because CP has the most of something, that doesn't make it the best in the world. There are arguments for Islands of Adventure, Busch Gardens Williamsburg / Tampa, and many other parks that they're the "best in the world", and they don't have anywhere near 14 coasters.
They don't need a "big" project every 2 years to stay alive, either.

Personally, I don't see how that's a hint at all. He's saying they wouldn't be talking about it this early, which means nothing.
Kinzel mentioned that CP tries to stay, I believe, 2 years ahead of the curve. That means whatever they have in plan for next year has been pretty much set since '99. I'll guess they wrapped up '02 plans sometime this year...
Which means of course they know about a (probably) big project for '02, why do we need hints? Nobody's going to tell us what it is until this time next year, probably.

So becuase they are not talking about a rollercoaster for 2002 means they are going to biuld one and if they were talking about a new rollercoaster for 2002 means they are not? What? I mean sure they do this every year before they build a new one but does anyone REMEMBER 1993? I am sure they were not taking about building one and so they did not. But at least in 94 they built the raptor. I dont get it? I agree with Lynch, why does not talkning about one mean yes?
