Mystery Construction

The disappearing of the Snake River Web cam could have something to do with the fact it was featuring the newest attraction Maverick..... Then again, the dragster cam comes and goes, so we could assume every time it goes down that dragster is going Bye Bye.

^That's highly unlikely, but I sure wouldn't miss that maintenance nightmare.

^ Exactly the point ;)

I really doubt the idea of this being an actual Halloweekends attraction...it would seem more logical to try and make something like that hidden, and use the available trees, etc. instead of bulldozing a giant open space and then trying to fill it in...but it can be done...

The boneyard has been cleared as well, or cleaned up, so the idea of a storage space doesn't seem very logical, but, with Kinzel wanting to micromanage the crap out of the park, I suppose this isn't far fetched..

I think it's reasonable to assume that the park is exploring more ways of integrating the MF island into the park for more than just Halloweekends, but it doesn't have to be a new rollercoaster or even a spinning ride...

Oh, and by the way, to the guy who made the comment about why speculate..can I come sign the cardboard box you surround yourself with? If no one ever speculated about what could happen about anything, well, we'd be a lot worse off than we are now.

^^Ha ha, you people and your hate crimes.:P

Hi! I guess I'm "that guy" I was being sarcastic about the entire why speculate thing. I Love to speculate and talk about what could be. If you look in the other topics that involve speculation, there is always a grumpy person or seven bashing the people that speculate. I was just having some fun. My friend has a cousin that knows the guy who cleans the bathrooms in the old frontier lift bathrooms said they are building a dive machine. Oh yeah, my box is not cardboard ,it is a synthetic heat resistant polymer that has elastic characteristics. Some might say a rubber room, but I call it home.

This is my first year posting here and reading the CP blogs, so Im not sure what to make of the new one. T+T said something is going on millenium island, but does that mean a new ride? Or do they just try to cause speculation?

^I think they are just trying to pour gas on to an already burning fire. :)

Gee I think that answers the question of do they read these. As well as Tony does make statements here too.

Anyways here is another cool idea. To celebrate Millenniums Tenth anniversary in 2010 and to take advantage of the new Green initiatives CP will be installing large Wind Turbines on Millennium Island which will not only provide energy for the surrounding structures but will provide some awesome head chopping effects on Millennium Force riders. You think that twist under the hill of Maverick is good, wait until you see the big blade come down towards your vehicle only to miss you and rotate back around.

Sally Dark Ride on Millenium Island.

i kinda like the idea of the supersonic train from CP to Cali! :-)

Um....Tony and Tyler must have made a boo-boo....their post about the Millenium Island construction has been removed.

interesting...

Great news - our camera has been installed above Pagoda and we're going to aim it and focus this afternoon.

Hopefully, you'll have something to see a bit later today.

Stay tuned!

Exactly....they post a picture of the area stating something is happening only to have it removed hours later? What gives?

Someone does a fly-over of the park...snapping pictures and posting them online (which is fine, of course)...but perhaps they hadn't thought of someone doing this and want to (temporarily) squelch talk about it until they are ready?

Or maybe the Padoga cam is tied to it somehow (seems a bit far away, though).

Wierd.

Wow, now it's like they are trying to put out a fire with grease! ;)

Well...my uneducated guess as to what happened:

T&T did what they have always done which is stoke the fire a bit. But, perhaps Dick and the gang are concerned about sending mixed messages. You see, they just recently announced a decrease to the distribution and the possibily of selling parks. So, if they then "officially" speculate on upcoming capital type projects it does lead to some confusion. "So, you are cutting back AND spending at the same time?"

Again, just my guess as I have no evidence of anything. But, it sure sounds like it has Kinzel's fingerprints on it.

I think it is going to be an interactive water coaster ride. That a way they could tear down SRF, put a new "water ride" in and also still have another coaster.

I hope you are right! An interactive coaster would be a good family ride.

That makes sense, Chief... or, it makes more sense than anything else I can imagine. Still, I'm not sure that the people such an act is designed to placate would even care.

Nevertheless, its interesting.

Have there ever been two blog entries saved for one day? Maybe the software only allows one blog per day and the earlier post was just overwritten by mistake due to a limitation in the software.
