Track Spottings!
larrygator replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Although X means 10 as a Roman numeral remember it is also the 24th letter of the alphabet. Now let's look at XWorks as a whole. 24, 23, 15, 18, 11, 20 What does it all mean?????? The answer must be in there somewhere! -
Six Flags Season Pass Survey
larrygator replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Looking at this from the business end, Six Flags should not be basing this on frequent riding or attendance if the gift costs money for SF to buy: water, flip flop, t-shirts, food, etc... Bonus incentives should include items such as: exit passes, discounted Fast Passes (provided SF still makes a profit after the discount) 2 for 1 games, upgraded parking, half price soft drink, enter the park before the rope drop to be first in the queue for a coaster. These provide value to the frequent visitor without cutting into the bottom line. -

My understanding is that the SF name is being licensed and SF will help manage the park, however funding for the park is coming from an entity in Dubai. FYI - Cedar Fair really isn't in great fiscal shape as their share price is half of last year's price. Also, for the first time in 23 years they did not increase their annual dividend to shareholders. -

Thanks Stuart Rainbow's End has been added to TPR's Park Index -
So the female "other" that took Daniel to the bomb and looked familiar to him is the British jewelry store clerk who is now working with Ben. Right?

It's OK, Colin has to deal with a bad pun or two from me in his thread, since I was one of his first benefactors on his project.

You didn't miss anything. Nothing ever happens on this show.

That's still not irony. By the way, after watching this week's episode all I have to is Charles f'n Widmore.

Six Flags Season Pass Survey

The bottle of water is more more appealing to me than a fresh coat of paint. -
It might seem like a waste to you (and this trip is not my cup of tea either), but it is a Dream Vacation for many and it sounds like a lot of people are already interested. I'm sure they could fill this trip to their quota, if the economy doesn't get too much worse.

Hey Colin, I hope you are not planning on camping out at Jellystone National Park. That would be a BooBoo!

Bingo! Just sitting back and watching the STUPIDITY at this point. Fixed -
It doesn't matter how inconsequential the weight may seem, it is a piece of the total puzzle. When you have a competitve lead in business you keep your trade secrets under wraps.

^I would bet that GCI is reluctant to release such proprietary information.

No spoilers for the Left Coasters, but this episode kicks major bootie. Elissa - unfortunately you will see a Sprint commercial with their CEO.

I browse and post from my Blackberry quite frequently. The appearance on my device changed over the summer and is very user friendly. Except I can't use Spell Check. That's bad for a Mod.

Herc, you never know. Some Europeans have extended vacations and after you factor in the cost of flying across the Atlantic, want to get as much done as possible. Hopefully, Mr Twister provides more info as people are willing to help him plan this trip.

Sounds like this guys wants to ride some of the best woodies but also visit nearby parks since he is taking a big trip. Therefore, he has included BGE, CP and KI. I would suggest that your trip also include Knoebels and Kennywood, two parks that you would be driving fairly close to going from CP, Waldameer and KI and all the other parks.

The Rumor / Crazy Idea Superthread
larrygator replied to Wes's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I'd have to agree with that... I just can't hear myself going, "Lets go ride Possessed!" Anyways, I read somewhere on another forum that Cedar Point has a contract with Intamin to construct 5 coasters before 2010 is over. Anyone have any information to back this up or is this just a silly rumor? That's definitely a rumor which has NO truth behind it.The economic downturn in recent months/years does not support it & CF isn't about to waste that much money on just one park. Well it is true that there will be 5 Intamins constructed at Cedar Point by the end of 2010: Disaster Transport Wicked Twister Millenniun Force Top Thrill Dragster Maverick Unfortunately for you dreamers the construction is already complete.
