Ice Bat "suggests" that you REALLY pay attention to this thread! Big announcement for 2012 coming soon!

Again, I highly approve of this project. Especially if robots chase down line jumpers. dt

Done. Happy to help! dt

^That is still seriously one of the greatest things I have ever witnessed. dt

Nice photos. Like the idea of the "theme" collections. Thanks for posting. dt

Prepare Thyselves... Something exciting is coming...

Thanks for doing this. So I never have to. dt

^Agreed. I'd also hope that people realize that the park cannot do anything about the local roads. That's up the county/state, and I'm sure it would take years to get any sort of new construction approved. dt

Mmmmm, tasty Japanese food! I'll have to check this out some time. dt

Thanks for all the new photos! Really looking forward to riding this next year. dt

Yes, Boise State totally deserved to be in a BCS game. Ah well... dt

I got a box in the mail today! Hey, our TPR Secret Santa Box is here! Let's see what's inside... These are going to be very popular with the cats! Ooooh, individually wrapped gifts! This is a skill I do not possess. The "Gift Bag" makes the holiday season a lot easier for me. Well that, and margaritas... It's the Fisticup! Since I enjoy coffee, and often need to punch people, this is an excellent gift! A book about wicked bugs?!? It's like you know my soul, Secret Santa! This will make excellent holiday reading! And a bonus surprise in the box - A SHARK!!!! Thank you, Secret Santa! Thank you, Brandy! And thank you, Robb & Elissa for everything you do. And for putting up with my nonsense! Have an awesome holiday everyone!!!

Only visited the park once, but had a good time during my visit. I'm amazed they're building any sort of housing in this economy, but I'm sure they're getting tax breaks or something. dt

I am a fan of rides using as much of the actual terrain/surroundings as possible, so I'm a big fan of the whole "through the trees" thing. dt

Hey, there was a box on my front porch. I wonder what's in it?!? Photos from the opening, featuring Ice Bat & Sharktopus, posted soon... dt

Yeah, I really liked this park when I visited with the TPR Spain trip. Sucks that they're having such a tough time. Though if someone else is going to run it, they really do need to invest in trees/sharde, as the heat was brutal there! dt

Yeah, my thoughts exactly. I'd love to see this happen, but it seems unlikely, given how all the other announced projects have turned out. dt

^That is interesting. And lines up with all the rumors that have been going around. Be curious to see how long they hold off on an official announcement. dt

I'm convinced that anyone that likes Guy Fieri cannot possibly have the brain power necessary to know how to read... dt

Gift Consultant Ice Bat & I have mailed out our box! Hope it is enjoyed. dt Box Of Excitement!

^This is one of the smartest things ever posted on the internet. dt

The is amazing news. DEATH TO PEPSI!!! dt

^This made me laugh. Those pictures are really cool. I'm far more interested in the technology behind this ride than the actual ride. dt

Skyrush. Easily the best new coaster next year, and it's not far from where I live. Would really like to see Hersheypark add QBots to the park, though. Also the TPR Europe trip. First time riding coasters there since 2008. Cannot wait to visit Europa Park again! dt

^^That needs to be put on a shirt. Robb's post is 100% correct. I've never seen a Potter movie or read one the books, and don't really know any of the story beyond he's a wizard. I think the land really does appeal to fans only, or at least people that have some knowledge of it ahead of time. While I admired the technology of Forbidden Journey, the story left me cold as I could not connect to it in any way. And despite what many think, I would guess there's a larger segment of the population that has little/no knowledge of Potter than those that do. dt
