^ I thought that Flashbacks lot was already destined to be a part of an expansion for Hurricane Harbor. Or was that just a rumor?

^ Wow those are really good! I used to draw when I was bored in class but never in that much detail. You should be like a landscape artist. Or design coasters!!!!

So I was wondering what kind of things you see while just doing your normal everyday routines that make you think of coasters. And if so then what coaster. For instance. My rabbits debris tray on his cage. When you shake it (after washing it) it wabbles and make a sound that I swear sounds just like Scream!'s lift. Just curious if anyone else does the same kind of thing. Or if I am just crazy. Which is VERY likely.

I'm just glad that people aren't like posting horrible stuff. I can't tell you how many articles I have read on news pages where users can comment and like 75% of the comments are horrible statements. It's good to know that TPR members can be respectful to their fellow human beings. It really makes me happy. On a random side note. Has anyone noticed that at amusement parks mostly gay women couples tend to be the ones holding hands? I never see gay male couples holding hands while walking down the midway. I know when i've gone with boyfriends in the past I have held their hands.

^ We should make this forum into a childrens book. With pop ups and everything.

Yeah I was thinking the same thing in regards to the wiring. They also still need to build the station as well as transfer and storage. On X2 they had staff testing the ride 24/7. My friend said that on X2 it wasn't the number of hours but the number of cycles. She can't recall the number of cycles but she said "days and days of non stop testing." So they may do the same to try and get the ride ready for its scheduled opening. I am incredibly excited to ride it though. It looks amazing. I would be incredibly surprised if it was a let down

What days are you planning on going to Belmont? And Magic Mountain?

^ I've noticed that when to comes to construction and parks trying to meet a deadline you'd be surprised as to how quickly things can get done. They only have a little bit of work left in regards to the track. PERSONALLY I would have to say that testing will probably start like early next month. BUT who really knows. Unless anyone can read Jay, Tim, or Neals minds.

^ yes it is definitely old now. but it was more interesting than no talking. So does anyone know why the universal in hollywood doesn't have any coasters? hopefully that doesn't open a can of worms.

Matterhorn when I was like 8.

You should have said that you were looking for your stash. Yeah everyone was staring at me because I had to get down on my knees and look under the bleachers. Its a lot smaller than I thought it would be. In the photo it looks huge.

^ & ^^ or like a million other coasters haha I have no clue why I even mentioned a specific ride. Either way apparently its going to be some sort of magical gift shop with like magical terminator stuff. Maybe terminator stuffed animals or dolls!!

Don't forget Terminator Salvation The Ride Gift shop!! Tim was all about mentioning that a bunch of times. haha It will be just like S:UF at SFGAdv.

Yeah I was surprised how long it had been there for when I saw the date on the back of the card. And I thought that Calicoasters was going to beat me too it. haha The people at the stadium looked at me funny.

^ Very true in regards to future designs of queues. Just look at X2's new queue. The flash pass line was clearly made just for that.

hmmm considering this topic is like 90% cheese it may eventually make sense to merge this forum into the one linked above.

^ haha thanks. I was expecting it to be like huge. I reminds me of a registration tag.

Poor girl. I guess she loves rides for the same reasons we do just to a much greater extent. And even if she most likely won't be able to fall in love with a human, at least she still knows what its like to be in "love".

^ at wcb they were talking about working on the buildings in the near future to get the area looking nice. but i think that getting the ride up and theming done is more of a priority at this point.

#4 card has been found.

^ didn't say I agree with it. and obviously I shouldn't have posted the comment. I am on the same boat with all of you.

I must admit that I am guilty of the single rider thing. But I usually talk to my friend while people are unloading. And if there is an empty spot she sometimes will let me take it. But I don't expect it or ask for it.

^ from the sounds of how they briefly described it at WCB it sounded like the bridge will bring people over the river into I guess you could say a plaza where the queue will start. I assume that the space in between the two turns will be the exit. But that is just a conclusion that I have come to. And who knows maybe there will also be a pathway that will head along the storm drain to Deja Vu? I guess only time will tell.

^ Better than X2 and Tatsu! I guess i really need to get to the Netherlands and try this coaster. Must be one amazing ride.

Yeah you can either get in line right at the beginning or just get in line at the last hour the park is open. A lot of times the line is rather short around closing. Just avoid it like mid day to an hour after opening. I've noticed that Goliath has been running exceptionally well lately too so don't expect a long wait on that. But many factors can change wait times so don't listen to my exact words.
