Does this mean we will see a new park from you soon? As much as I love EarthQuest, I really miss the old timeline style parks and would love to see another one.

I'm also curious of what this will be since that is a very generic area of the park. The color scheme is also going to be a big deal since it will be flying over the entrance gates and will be one of the first things you see now. Well we can speculate green track possibly with the recent discovery at the B&M plant in Ohio.

So has any work gotten done on the ride since last week? I know the holidays may have cut into the process a bit but I was just curious, not sure on how many days construction workers get off for the holidays.

This coaster is turning out to look a lot better than I originally thought it would. The stengel dive looking element looks fantastic. Looks like I'm gonna have to make the trek out to Hershey next summer. For those who work at the park or are very familiar with it, whens the best time of the year and the best days or the week to visit?

Some people over at Kennywood Connection, who I'm pretty sure has reliable sources, are throwing around the phrase "BLACK WIDOW". Whether this is a ride theme, ride name, or a code name, I'm not sure. They also mention that the ride and its name has been released already, it just requires some looking.

I'm laughing at what would've happened if you would've said no and walked away. A big punch in the face to Hershey's plans.

Yeah Diamondback has the snake themed trains... I still have loads of KW maps if someone wants to throw an offer my way.

Only 5 feet? What a disappointment.

Am I the only one in awe over those kickass waterslides?

I actually like the flyer. Its "short and sweet" and interacts with the surrounding environment well. The other two are creative...yet very cluttered at the same time.

..paid for in CASH!?!?

Combining the swinging movement of the swing around(they did swing you out to an almost 90 degree angle right?) with the height of this right would probably make me jizz in my pants.

I know that this isn't going to be the new attraction for '98 but I was just curious as to when the Hurricane Harbors started to open at the various parks. Anyone know?

I generally don't comment on RCT3 parks but I have to point out how much of an eyesore the bright green Starbuck's building is...is it possible to make it a darker green or a more natural color such as gray, white, or brown?

Yeah but those two coasters were built in '99, if we were to follow the timeline, Mr. Freeze would make more sense.

MR. FREEZE!! Or even better..CHILLER!

-Double Dip on Jack Rabbit. -Second drop on Phantom's Revenge -EVERY drop on El Toro -First drop on Millennium Force

I would give it a try, but I'll be on vacation all next week so won't have any time to work on it before the deadline. Good luck to everyone else though and I can't wait to see some of the entries when I get back. EDIT: Count me in if you decide to push the deadline back as a lot of people seem to be asking for that.

I love the Safari Zone idea!! Someone needs to take an initiative and do an entire theme park themed to Pokemon, they would become my hero.

Looks really good so far, I like the layout of the coaster. 2 things though: - The carousel is a huge eyesore in my opinion, the blue tents around it seem to clash with the rest of the area. Also I've never been a fan of the double decker carousel in RCT2, I personally think it's kinda tacky and doesn't flow well with the rest of the games objects, but that's just me. -The station for the Whizzer could use a little something more to spruce it up, it seems kind of boring right now. Everything else looks great, keep it up!

On the topic of Mean Streak, I also agree that the layout is very fun, but the ride is just painful and almost unbearable these days. Depending on the reviews of the Texas Giant rehab, CP definitely should jump on the opportunity to do the same if the get the option to do so. I just don't understand how they can let a ride be so miserable for so long and not even make any honest attempts to fix it. And honestly if the ride gets torn down I don't think many people will be to dissapointed as I doubt the ride itself has much sentimental or historic meaning at all. Just my two cents.

Just saw Get Him to the Greek last night......absolutely hysterical. Quite possibly funnier than The Hangover.

So I'm planning on going to BGW for a weekend this August and I had a quick question about the park's Quick Queue system. How exactly does it work? Like is it a Q-bot system like six flags does, or an enter through the rides exit type of thing? I know all parks do their fast pass systems differently and was just wondering how this one worked and whether it was worth my money. Also, does it have to be purchased online or can it be bought at the park? Thanks.

That's a scary yet very amusing thought...

OMG Kinzel has his own fort now!?!?! haha great Trip Report!
