Let's be honest here... I don't think the clientele they have been going after the past few years are really the "luxury resort" type. If anything, I could totally see them taking a hotel like Royal Pacific and "downgrading" it to match the other lower-cost hotels along that stretch of their property. Lol you are correct. The value resorts just don't pull me in when I know I can get other 3-4 star accomodations off site for about half the price if I time it well . . .

And as it was stated a few pages back, the wood and stuff at the SOB memorial was done by the ride crew. -

How? They didn't say anything about what was coming. Teaser are meant to be just that, a teaser. They should be taken with a grain of salt. If you were expecting a coaster I cant see how? We all know by now there would have been SOME type of ground activity if it were something major. If you are let down, you cant blame that on the park. -

Spooning is safer, forking cannot hold the batter in place. lol lol -

I think the "stirring" is the actual ride sections after the launches so it would include the loop. The leaked layout does show lots of transitions. -

Not marketing, the labeling that Mack put on their shipments. Has nothing to do with how the coaster is marketed . . . -

I don't think its a spinner because the "stiring" sounds like the layout and the labeling on time traveler was x-treme and the labeling on this one is just dual launch. Great use of a double-entendre lol. -

Roll out of station, 42 mph launch in 2.5 seconds, hit a brake run second launch goes from 35-50mph in 2 seconds flat. Top speed, 53 mph, length 3,255 ft. 2 min 24 second ride time,16 riders per train. Ride centered around making moonshine in an inconspicuous place which is what the station could be themed after. Moonshine being made, Copperhead Strike. No snakes nor moonshine were harmed in the making of this post . . . -

Upon completion in 2000, Millennium Force broke six world records and was the world's first giga coaster . . . -

Well, they did that with FURY 325 (although it isn't close to CP) after years of saying they won't build a "regular" coaster taller than MF. I think they don't care about keeping records only at Cedar Point anymore and that is good for us! -

I guess it will go as other announcements have gone where they will ANNOUNCE the closing of the ride on that particular day, but it will operate until a later date. -

I don't think that would be a good Idea to recreate SOB. The layout was basically a bunch of helices and a loop. -
