But it will be a very slow, ten+ year process in order to entertain generations to come. -

But to replace one of the best ejector moments on ANY wooden coaster with a lame over bank? Reprofiling usually means it will be better than before. -

Great idea. How do you improve a roller coaster that bangs your head around like a Russian mobster? Put expensive technology on your face while it does so! -

Looks great! Now all they have to do is get the trains there (I think two of them have yet to arrive) and we can get this thing rolling! Great job Cedar Point! -

It will be a 500 ft. Matt Ouimett ripping apart classic flat rides at the park and giving us Planet Snoopy expansions until the end of time. ...I take it you haven't read the last headline link in this thread. Sometimes the obvious is lost on people. Especially millennials It's almost like I was using comedic exaggeration in order to bring comedy to a discussion. But thanks for bringing that discussion to a grinding halt in order to discuss the practicality of an obviously satirical joke. It's also ironic considering that PhanotomPoster32 and I were the first to report the addition of the condor and troika literally within the same minute of each other. -
Silver Dollar City (SDC) Discussion Thread
WOFanatic replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Just because I am curious. . . What is it about Wildfire that you don't enjoy? Wildfire is by far one of the smoothest B&M coasters out there, not to mention the view to the left of the lift hill is amazing. There is a nice mix of inversions, and the first drop provides nice airtime in the back row. I will admit, I rode it in almost the worst conditions. Barely cracking 40 degrees all day, couldn't even get it open till the last hour I was there. I rode it pretty much ten minutes after it opened up, so it didn't get much time to warm up. I just found it so bleh... Maybe it was just the condition it was in. -

Maybe I should have worded that differently. I think the park deserves a better B&M as I don't really enjoy Wildfire. -

Sweet, charming, beautiful title fairy, would it be too much to ask for a title such as "Nina Kleppe's ex boyfriend"? Thank you, your majesty.

When you have so many roller coasters you just run out of colors. lol. I guess they could have went with purple. lol Purple would have looked great. Especially since there is a roller coaster just a little bit further down the midway with a similar color scheme. For real though, whoever decided orange and silver should not have input in the design process of new attractions for CF. -

I'm hoping for a dive coaster as well. I've never been a huge fan of Wildfire, so another large, looping B&M would be perfect. -

Go Carts are really easy to remove, so I'm guessing yes. I remember when WOF removed theirs to build Steelhawk, it only took about a week. -

I do not know for sure but probably under $10 million, probably about $5-7 million, but don't quote me on that I don't know for sure. I´d guess around $4 million since Windseekers are $6 million and are way bigger/more complex (I´m guessing). -

WOFanatic replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I'm the last person to ever call someone out for making an offensive comment but wow. Also none of these comments were all that bad, many are opinion based. Not everyone has to like the same things you like. Your opinion is no more important than anyone else's. It's to far but kids today have no filter at all, they think posting something behind a computer is cool. Also his location, can you say desperate for attention? How come in America half of us say that language has become too PC, while others believe we have no filter. Sometimes people make mistakes and post stupid comments, and he admitted that he went too far. Having to take up an entire page to complain about what someone said and how it offends you is much more obnoxious than a holocaust joke (which was deleted). -

That's just what SDC does. "Family Ride" in the SDC dictionary is defined as "Anything involving the general movement of guests." They still to this day consider Outlaw Run a family coaster even though it is one of the most intense coasters I've ever ridden.
