Knoebels Discussion Thread

If the ride turns out to be as much fun and as screwed up as Ultra Twister @ Rustusu, it will definitely crack the top 20 list. The POV doesn't make it seem like that will be the case, but you never know. Either way, I am sure it will be a big hit for the park. -
^My point exactly. Defenses will let him be a pocket passer. They'll try to contain him in the pocket and make him throw instead of biting on the read option (which essentially lets someone have a free run towards the QB so the QB can react and find the uncovered man) or allow him to scramble.

Baseball is always a streaky game. Look at the Dodgers. You can afford to lose to crappy competition as long as they can hold on and win those division series at the end of the season.

You get what you pay for. Much like the larger CCI woodies have problems, it seems like the Gravity Group rides suffer from the same problems. When dealing with such a large structure, it probably isn't a good idea to use the cheaper southern yellow pine. -
They're looking at February for the whole thing to be ready--Linq shopping center & wheel. I'm excited for a YardHouse on the strip. And beer pong at O'Shea's again. The branch of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame could be cool too.

He meant park management. Corporate made the decision for them. Regarding YOLOCoaster...that one is tough. It's partially the parks fault for not stocking the part, and partially the manufacturers fault for fabricating a POS part that failed too soon. It really begs the question, what is better: no YOLOCoaster or long line YOLOCoaster? On the day Transformers made the news for "riders being stuck," another site got a picture of the sign posting a 4 hour wait because the ride could only ride at half capacity. It happens sometimes.

To me, formal night is part of the fun of a cruise. I hate dressing up, but it is fun to be amongst everyone else who also hates dressing up in addition to those who do enjoy dressing up. For the other nights, I don't think you need to be any less casual than a T-shirt and jeans...which is something even I have done while still drunk from the day in Cabo. It is true that cruises are evolving, but the whole point of the dining room is so you can have a gourmet/fancy dining experience that you would not normally get without paying a fortune (and having to dress nice) at a restaurant.

I think it just means they are tired of waiting and couldn't come to an agreement to keep the project going. -
So now the officially announced lineup stands at: Mazes: -Monsters Remix -Evil Dead -Insidious -Walking Dead -Black Sabbath Scare zones: -The Purge -Chucky Also, here's the "Carthay Circle ripoff" everyone was complaining about...Only similar in that they are both towers with architecture from that era

Making him a pocket passer is exactly what defenses want to do. He might still beat them through the air, but they'll have a much better chance at stopping him that way.

New Roller Coaster for New Orleans

I think it is a safe bet to assume so. -
^It's crazy that MLB's all time hits leader and home run leader will never be in the Hall of Fame. Says a lot about baseball.

It's not really confusing at all. New York's subway system/maps are much more difficult to understand IMO. -

Considering how awful Yankees 3rd basemen were hitting, I don't think you would be sitting A-rod if you valued your job. And therein lies the problem: no one ultimately cares about PED's if it helps a team win and sells more tickets. Baseball has a time honored tradition of cheating, whether it be corked bats, spitballs (Gaylord Perry is in the hall of fame and is best known for his vaseline pitches), amphetamines, and even segregation cheating the white players out of facing the elite talent of the negro leagues for that matter...PED's are just the latest. The difference is that MLB is trying to pretend like they care instead of turning a blind eye like with other methods of cheating, which is just embarrassing them even more.
