PointCast #2

http://maverick.cedarpoint.com/latest/podcasts/

I must say, it was a lot better than I thought it was going to be. Big props to Tony and Tyler for this update!

For me, the link for both podcasts is pointing to the same file, the first one, not the new one.

Anyone else having this problem?

I found the problem:
The picture is linked to the right file, but the "Download" link is connected to the old podcast.

So, download the link attached to the picture and everyone should get the right edisode.

Yes they did a great job on this podcast. I think they did a good job on the last one as well. This one just had to be tougher for them with the weather being colder.

And this finally answers one question. The brakes on the lagoon hill are going to be permanent (non-retractable) brakes. And they'll fine tune the number and placement when testing begins. So we can put that argument to rest.

But, what if that's just what they want you to think? Sheesh - playing right into their little plan, John.

I'm sorry. I forgot that you borrowed Jeff's black helicopter to go to a double secret meeting with the Dick and know everything that's going down.

Yeah I like the latest pointcast, it showed more of whats going on.

Wow, finally. I've been waiting for this to appear every day. What a sad looser I am. ;) ;) But damn, I love this park...

What would you be otherwise? A happy tightener?

*mumble*crazy danes*mumble*

So what the heck do you watch this thing on? I take it I need itunes?

Quicktime player worked for me.

i cant get the picture to work but it sounds cool

I was able to get it to work with mplayer on my Linux workstation. I just happened to be in Windows, and apparently the Quicktime I have doesn't play that.

nice update.

All the cool people use iTunes, so that's all that matters, right? :)

I thought they did a really great job. They showed a lot of cool things and gave a good deal of info about the ride's inner workings. I think the top of the elevator shaft is cool!!

I'm not sure who filmed this, but I thought they got a little overzealous with their "fade ins" or whatever you'd call them. When they were talking about the different kind of brake fins, the camera was going all over the place. That was sorta annoying.

But, overall I think it was great. I loved the "sneak peek" at the super secret storage location and the train. That was fun.

I just got a new computer and have never listened or watched a podcast before.

I downloaded Itunes and both podcasts worked great - there is nothing better than a video update - great work T&T (can't wait to see it in action).

^^ - You mean the storage location known as Blue Tarp Research Facility?

It worked for me in standard Quicktime...

Anyways, nice update, as always. Can't wait until May!

The quality in it was alwsome!

Yeah, a much better version I must say! Nothing that we really dont already know (even the brakes on the pond hill:)) but cool none-the-less. At least we got to see one of the trains wheels.:P
