  1. When you say popped up do you mean it moved up a little but was still locked or it opened completely? If it opened completely you should have reported that immediately. If it moved up a little but was still locked it could have been between locking points or there is a little slop in the mechanism--- but it was still locked.
  2. from user Lowkae. Somebody said (obviously sarcastically) that they can't wait that until this happens to Magnum. My response - that would make me a saaaaad panda. Complained because they felt hurried loading? Either that is complete crap and CP doesn't really want to say why they ditched the 3rd train, or people are just really stupid and bitchy and would rather wait in line longer (so they could complain about that too) than get on the ride quicker. And if they were forcing guests to load "too quickly" why then didn't they just change the procedure a little instead of getting rid of a train? That just sounds really dumb for some reason.
  3. I thought it had been reported that this happened on ride #673.
  4. Have you noticed a change in the way GS rides comparing your first few rides to your last few? 198 rides should be a good gauge to see if it has changed since it is broken in now.
  5. The ride bashing before it's even built is a normal/typical thing. New ride announcement = "eventhough I have not ridden it yet since int's not even put together this ride is going to be forceless, or boring, or not have enough airtime, etc".... While I will never understand how some people can be total experts on something that isn't even running yet it's amusing how they think they know EXACTLY how the ride is going to be and feel. YOLO coaster was a different story in the sense that many people (including me) bashed it for being really short, which it is, but as it turns out a lot of people THAT HAVE ACTUALLY RIDDEN IT like it a lot and I probably will too, isn't that funny? I LOVE B&M Inverts, long or short, forceful or not, that ride type is a lot of fun to me. This ride looks amazing and I know it's just a rendering but I really like the way the train smoothly and gracefully goes through the elements and this looks like it's going to be a blast, too bad it's so far away from me, I would love to ride it. Have any specs been released yet as far as lift height, etc? I've only seen the speed mentioned.
  6. Wouldn't it be considered two blocks since each side of the station has it's own brakes?
  7. I would be ok with a chain link fence, at least the idiots couldn't really tag it. *This just in via text from the park* "For 1 day only, get tickets online only for $29.99 each on Wednesday 8/7. Choose your visit date from 8/8 - 8/25. Visit cagreatamerica.com for details"
  8. Maybe because the "broken part" on the working train hasn't broke- yet, so why put it down if it still works safely?
  9. This one is even worse! So many wrongful things, the click, her falling out on the drop...ugh I wouldn't be surprised if Six Flags sues several of these media outlets for slander. The information is clearly wrong and is harming their reputation while making one of their prominent coasters look unsafe to the point of negligence on Six Flag's part for ever opening it. They've made videos about companies and incidents much bigger than Six Flags. Which just goes to show you that you can pretty much do and say whatever you want on the internet and it really doesn't matter. It's the interent. "If it's on the internet then in must be true".....
  10. CGA is going to build the world's longest tunnel, then put a coaster inside it.
  11. It's because America is a society of ignorant, greedy, paranoid people. Ignorant in that a super safe coaster with ONE accident/fatality seems to be more important than a train crash with 73 fatalities for example and as you eluded to compared to themepark coasters, cars are basically death traps on wheels, killing far more people each year and every day than coasters ever have, yet there is no outrage or seems to be any concern over this fact. Greedy in that closing down a rail line, public transit, airline significantly hurts the bottom line and they will all but avoid that to determine exactly what happened and how to prevent it happening again. Paranoid in that this ONE accident on this coaster causes people to just assume every coaster is dangerous which could not be farther from the truth- that is also ignorance too. I totally agree with you, this country really needs to look at how other societies handle things like this, there is a lot to be learned. Basically, America is just dumb, I live here and I'm not at all proud of that.
  12. It's laughable. From the RCT peeps to the bad dramatic music..... oh brother.
