Thanks Desalia, comments like this are what gives me motivation to do this! Criticism is also accepted! But, you'll have to wait and see for 1997

August 2013: I went to Michigan's Adventure with some of my friends. As we got our tickets we noticed there was a man in the glass reflection and he was WATCHING us. As we went throughout the day we saw him at the exit of every ride. At lunch we were eating and he walked RIGHT up to us and asked "Would any of you like a treat?" We all said no and then he walked away and we NEVER saw him again. O_O

Hello! Hello! Hello! It's Lilly again, and I am here to bring you the 1st update for Season 2 of Crystal Town Amusement Park! It was an amazingly successful season 1 and we hope we can do the same again! This time for opening day we got so many entries we just COULDN'T pick only 1! So we picked a handful of the best ones and put them together for this small compilation! You may notice some pictures look different from each other and that's because not everyone has the same camera, obviously! Also, another bit of news. We will not be having a June issue as the magazine will be having a more important topic over our normal time-slot, we are sorry to all those who wanted to enter for it! Don't worry! We will be having a July/August/September update! And the July will be special! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Kara Silverstone Giles Stanley, Local store owner Lisha Andrews, from Justice, Idaho Liam Kawasaka, Head of Thrills Club at his school My club and I officially visited the park for today!

Yzlienti Desiala, moved from Wyoming last year Trey Cecilia, from Grand Rapids, MI wrote: Thanks for a great day Crystal Town! I'll see you soon! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Well, wasn't that a great update? With over 250 submissions, these were what we chose to be the best ones! REMEMBER: There will be no June update! Have a great night!

YES!

Remember! All people who want to enter: Do NOT make it a death coaster! I already got PM'd by someone on themeparkreview with a roller coaster that crashed into the main plaza! DO NOT DO THAT! IF YOU DO, you will be disqualified! Anyways, have fun and may the worst coaster win!

Hello Everyone! It's Mason Iearol again, the park's main construction manager! I just came to say "hi" and give the final update of the off-season until the park re-opens this next Friday! Now, we've had a great time this spring while making it! Now all the rides are installed, tested, and ready to be opened! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ OH! What do we have here? Why, it's the SEA PIRATE! It's the brand new Intamin pirate swinging ship! It'll be an amazing ride for the little kids and families! I guess we all know what THIS is! (If you don't know, it's Rip-Tide by Chance Rides), it just got a new paint scheme! However, its new location is close to the cobra roll of Daydream Believer! Basically you can see the entirety of the track from it! It's a new angle you were NEVER able to get before. The only other new ride is the new HUSS Enterprise. It actually has a lever inside each car which can change the kind of ride you want. If you go to the right, you have a normal, stationary ride. To the left you can move the car freely flipping it as the ride goes along! However, if proposed 1997 plans are approved, it would be moved from its current place. OVERVIEWS: This one shows the locations of Rip-Tide and Enterprise. If you haven't noticed, the path is very different from other park places. The exit to Sea Pirate can be seen. And, the basic view of the Sea Pirate, the largest of the 3 attractions. It needed it's whole other picture just to be captured without the helicopter going too high! This was a picture of the city inspector who gave us the final passing inspection for it to open to the public! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Season 2 starts Friday! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ In case you didn't know, you can enter my 1st contest I've made! It's to make the most uncomfortable coaster you can! Enter here: Uncomfy Coaster Contest

Hello! This contest is EXACTLY how it sounds. You have to make an uncomfortable roller coaster! One that you would ride once and go "NEVER AGAIN!" These are the rules of what the coaster can be. The entries will close on December 1. Winner is going to be announced on the 5th. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 1. You CANNOT make it a death coaster. By that, you can't make it that you would LITERALLY die on it. Just make it as unlikable as possible. 2. MAKE IT look realistic like it would be in a real park. With a station, custom supports, catwalks, etc... the more the realistic things there are on it, the more points you score. 3. To be CONSIDERED, you must post at least FOUR photos of the coaster, which includes a full (or as close as you can get to it) layout picture, closeups of strange details, and (for EXTRA points) a guest's review on it! 4. A video is NOT necessary, but it helps to see how fast/horrible it is. Also, you get more points. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Tips on what TO DO/What NOT TO DO DO: Make strange or unnecessary details into the ride to make it more uncomfy, such as corkscrews after a random drop (NOT TO BIG!!!) or a trick-track with high speeds. And remember! NO banked turns on certain turns! DON'T: Do anything that would kill/murder guests, small corkscrews after a 250 foot drop, or a very small turn at high speeds. DO: Make it that people wouldn't want to ride it! Try to make it seem like it was made by infamous painful ride makers, TOGO, Vekoma, and Arrow! Oh, and any wooden roller coaster made before 2005! DON'T: Make it too likable! That ruins the whole point! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ How you get scored: Originality: 30 Uncomfortable: 30 Realistic: 15 The Pictures: 5 Supporting/Themes: 10 Extremeness: 10 EXTRA POINTS: Video: 5 points ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ TAKE INSPIRATIONS! DON'T MAKE IT A REAL DESIGN! MAKE SURE IT IS AN ORIGINAL DESIGN!!!

coolkid: Thank you for clearing that up ! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Hello everyone! It's Mason Iearol here! You may be wondering where Lilly is, but she is over at the company's headquarters in London. They're discussing the other park, Kingland Park. Today, I will show you the great progress we have made so far! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ NOVEMBER 1, 1995 Oddly enough, it hasn't been a bit all throughout the construction! Even though it's been oddly warmer towards the city! Today, it was raining however. This photo shows the empty space that was Rip-Tide which was removed on October 18. We will fill it in soon! You'll see! This photo is from behind the stone wall that currently separates the 2 parts of the park. It's big, but it will be gone by April! Finally, I'll leave you with 2 workers coming back from lunchbreak. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ DECEMBER 10, 1995 Why, hello again! It's been a month now hasn't it? Come on, I'll show you the great progress we've made on the former Rip-Tide area! You'll probably love it! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ SNOW on the ground! That could be a sign of good luck! Here it is! Fardown Restaurant! It is small, but it'll have some mighty sweet burgers! This is what it looks like coming into the place! I know the tables might seem weird to each other, but it really will be a nice place to eat. If you're a vendor, here's a shot of what it will be like serving! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ HAVE A GREAT TIME THIS SUMMER! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Ok, so now with the expansion construction underway, we finally are getting to our very last update for Season 1! Sorry to those who wanted to be featured in the park updates, but you'll need to wait until next year! By then the park will have a brand new area for new rides, restaurants, and roller coasters! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Greetings, my name is Louis Kingnight and I am writing for a chance to be in the September article update! I come from the small town of Stickley, Montana. We took a plane out east to come to the extended 10-day family reunion in Queens, New York, even if the kids are missing some school (which they're not concerned of, not in the least) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ This is our gracious family! From left to right: 9 year old Thomas, 11 year old Daniel, 47 year old Myself, My 43 year old wife, Jessie, Our only daughter (10) Lauren, and our youngest, 6 year old James. Going on the off season when schools are in and the fact it's a Sunday, there was almost no one in the park at opening. By POPULAR demand, (more like little kid harassment), we decided to go left, because the kids "wanted to go on the big rides later" With that, 1st up on the agenda, Tilt-A-Whirl, everyone but Daniel would go on it, he HATES spinning rides. As we rounded the corner, we saw Forest Singer, and the kids all HAD to ride it! It didn't help that there was only 1 train running which made a 45 minute line, and to make matters worse, people were ALWAYS cutting us. I thought the ride was OK, there was airtime, but it felt... forced. It was sort of rough at points and the best parts were large drops, which there weren't much of. Honestly though, after that disaster, there weren't many lines at all for that matter, most rides were a walk on deal. Which certainly made it better, especially with Overture, I would not was 45 minutes for it. All the kids for SOME reason wanted to go on the train, which I wanted, a nice, sweet, calm down ride. I can't figure out why the station was theater themed, it doesn't make that much sense... I liked it! People thought it was boring! What do you expect, a mine train??!?!?!??! The rock tunnel was short but cool! We all needed lunch, the Main Street Cafe was packed, so we went into gaming center, and it's so underrated! Sure the food is in less quality, but look at all this gaming stuff being ignored by the public! Heading towards the right, it was PACKED, it has more thrills there and EVERYONE wanted to see that new construction area. The ride I actually wanted to ride was the Daydream Believer, it's a custom B&M, so it has to be good! Only Thomas wanted to ride, so I happily agreed! Here we go! "Keep all hands and feet inside the ride at all times, enjoy~~~" Goodbye world! It was fantastic! It was smooth, and it's just great! The line is a bit long, but 3 trains really keeps it moving! Nearby, the construction is attempting to be hidden, but you can't exactly hide this big a crane! They've already cleared so much land! On Rip-Tide, we could see a few workers taking measurements! And I think I saw some steel in the background being delivered! With these September nights getting shorter, twilight was already coming! So we decided to get some rides in! The 2 S&S drop towers were closed for maintenance, and because of that we rode things like Roll O' Plane! A rollin' good time! My older ones really wanted to try Whirling Dervish, past reports call it a headache machine, but we really enjoyed it! It felt out of control! Like a fair ground ride on steroids! We didn't forget about young one's too! For James' sake, we all took a ride on the carousel. Being a Sunday, the park closes early, meaning we had to leave at 8:00. Goodbye Crystal Town, see you next year! The final photo, just outside the gates near the tram waiting area. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Coaster Rankings: Forest Singer: 7.5/10, some parts were rough, but a good ride Overture: 7/10 Ok Daydream Believer: 10/10! BEST. RIDE. PERIOD. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ *Sniff* I got a little emotional printing this, it's the last one, and while the park closed on September 30th, this was the last update for season 1! I will, however, post lots of off-season construction photos! Here's to a great year! -Lilly B. Harringstone ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ There you have it, season 1 finished, and I can't wait for season 2, can you? That will happen in mid-late November. 'Till then, please post comments, criticism, or suggestions. -Cullvion

TheAmazingCP: Thanks for pointing that out, I had another forum that has this park continued for much longer, but since I don't have 50 posts, I can't post it for a much better backstory to the park ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Hello! This month was a special time for the park! As it was the day we finally announced the expansion for season 2! Quick note: It's NOT a roller coaster, but one will come in the following seasons... Our August submission was a shocker, it was from a worker herself! The worker's name is Janice Omaisi. (Oh-may-zy), and she is currently the ride operator for Overture. As you know, the announcement was on the 18th, and this is the full coverage of it! Here you go! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ That was a great day in the parks history! Even though we had financial trouble in construction, we are already getting so much profit that it was worth every penny to invest this project on! See you soon!

Announced Tomorrow Night An official announcement for Crystal Town's season 2. Find out what has been hiding and running from the greedy masses for so long. All the waiting will come to an end... August 5, 1995

NOTE: Somewhere in one of these photos lies the park inspector, the 1st person to spot it gets their name (or part of it) mentioned in the next update! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ HAPPY 4TH OF JULY EVERYBODY! Well, it's actually August right now, but this is the July update, and this writer went on, what a big surprise, Fourth of July. Fun fact about that day: That has so far been the day with the highest attendance so far, with over 7500 people coming out to spend the day! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Hey Amusement World Magazine! It's Liza Shalpeck coming to you from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. I recently graduated High School and currently I am waiting for the summer to be done to go to Penn State University! I drove an 1 1/2 hour to get to this park, and it was worth it! Check it out! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Aww! I couldn't be here as I was discussing the new roller coaster at my company's other park, Kingland Park. Oh well, sent in your August submissions! Due on the 30!

Hello again, Lilly here. This is the June update of Crystal Town Amusement Park! This time, we have an older theme park enthusiast. Markus Johnson of Red Bank, New Jersey. Of the 255 submissions, we have chosen his as he embodies the true critique of a enthusiast! Also, he was the only of 22 who actual followed the rules for the submissions... and his was the best so... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Umm, ok then, send in your July statements by the 25th of July! Have a great day! Best of Luck!

IneedTPforbunghole: Didn't see that! Let's just say the park had lots of money at the beginning of construction. They were smart by building the bigger rides earlier, and decided because it's so small, it could wait. Unfortunately, because of the events that happened, they ran out of money by the time the construction on that ride was to begin. Some things just can't be planned. AJ: That's fine, sorry, I didn't see that. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Hello everyone, Lilly Harringstone here! Last week today was opening day for Crystal Town Amusement Park! We had an ASTOUNDING amount of guests on opening day with over 6,000 people coming from all over the world just to attend day 1 of season 1 for our park! While we did have some bumps in the way of construction, and we did have some financial issues at the end on construction, it is so far successful and paying off! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Our first written update is from Sarah Fillendrome of South Amboy, New Jersey. She is 13 years old and we have decided to choose her for our May update as she embodies the happiness of a child on a trip to the park. We hope more submissions are sent in for the monthly update so that the park can continue to enjoy watchers in the form of written reports! Just because you didn't get chosen this time, keep sending it in and maybe you'll get it for our June update! There you have it! Our 1st update for Season 1! Readers, go to the park, and make an update! You could be featured!

Quick synopsis: 1992: Park approved, construction begins. 1993: Valentine's Day, disaster kills 6 workers. 1994: Workers Strike, Financial Issues, Arson of entrance. Hello readers, it Lilly Harringstone updating you again, but, for the last time. During Construction that is. Today was officially the last day in construction for Crystal Town. While things have to be added (benches, trash cans, etc...) we are mostly done. I will be on business leave to our headquarters in London for further discussions on my company's other park, Kingland Park in London, England. The window in the building for Daydream Believer doesn't show much, but just a few meters away is a soon-to-be bursting path, if the crowds DO show up. Overture goes zooming through its loop. Looks fun! The station is small, but reminds me of Forest Singer's station. Caught this while inspecting the carosuel, another successful test run! Being the last day for construction, many workers celebrated a job well done! Airline spins like an out of control chairswing! Layout of Overture, unlike other shuttle loops, it has no rear spike due to budget issues. The last image I was able to take before leaving Crystal Town, New Jersey in the plane. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Park opening very soon!
