No....all (or at least most) of the mazes still have their exteriors under construction... Also, I've spotted those blue survey markers in the WindSeeker and Skyrider areas and they all seem to marking water/hydro/electric access points. -

Sorry to the topic back up again but the fake website was a "tribute" to what happened with Cedar Point last year. -

X-Works refers to everyone and anyone...the labels used to say the park name but after enthusiasts kept spilling the beans, so B&M had to change the customer name so no one would find out. -

Just watched a recent video of the show and was surprised to see that Wonderland has changed some of the scenes! Play the original video posted 2 pages back beside this one to see what I mean. -

Ummmm do you know when knotts and cedar point trademarked their roller coaster names? On the day of the announcement, therefore when the trademark was filed has no influence when the name will actually be used. It still disagree that we're getting a 2014 coaster, 2015/16 sounds more reasonable. -

Who said we weren't getting anything in 2013? You do know something is coming to Splash Works in 2013, just the scale of it is unkown. The rumour is that a new waterslide will open in 2013 and now with the Mamba trademarked and the description of what the trademark is for, it sounds like we could possibly be looking at a water coaster similar to Riverrush going to Dollywood. -

Ya but I don't think CP is going for enthusiasts but rather the GP. -

Everything stays open in rain. I believe Levi and Behemoth run one train during rain. As long as there isn't thunder/hail, everything stays open. I remember going to the park this year and as dark clouds were approaching right after the first flash of lightning, all the rides immediately shut down. -

You know what I find funny about the tunnel now? Its the fact that now Leviathan is eating....Leviathan!!! The front of the trains have the Levi eyes and now the tunnel...some good logic there... -

1. The WS at Canada's Wonderland had several malfunctions at the beginning of the 2012 season...for a matter of fact, when I was at the park once, it stalled 3 times in one day. The gondola immediately began to slowly lower on its own as soon as the gondola stopped. It took about 15-20 minutes for the gondola to make it to the bottom of the tower. 2. This made me laugh: so I live in Toronto, Canada, and when I was looking at the online newspaper in Toronto (The Toronto Star) they had an article about the Knott's incident. How on earth does something like this end up in Canada!!!! http://www.thestar.com/news/world/article/1259608--riders-left-dangling-hundreds-of-feet-off-the-ground-for-nearly-4-hours-after-windseeker-fails-at-amusement-park
