"Evil Streak"

[thrillrider]

Top 5 contenders for name...

 

1. Son of mean streak

2. Mystic streak

3. Mean flight deck

4. Thunder streak

5. Wood coaster #2

 

Or...enter any obscure mythical demon name.

The graphic makes me wonder if (assuming that an RMC conversion would happen) the new name will be related to Boneville in some way, like a Ghostrider-esque theme. You could name it "Spirit Outlaw" or something similar.

I don't know what to think yet about this announcement. So far we know 1 thing, mean streak is closing, and we do not know for sure what will replace it. At my park CW they removed skyrider and we all thought something was going to be replacing it for next year, didn't happen and the year after that didn't happen either. Skyrider I did ENJOY but I would rather have pretty much anything else new there.

 

Now if I apply this to mean streak, if they remove it and just leave it for 1 year, I will be sad because the coaster is FINE, and I had a great experience at 10PM when it was pitch dark and raining like crazy and the ride OPS let us keep riding without getting back in line (only a couple people in the station).

 

But if mean streak is replaced by an RMC or GCI, I will still "miss" mean streak because I had great memories on it, but I will be overall extremley happy and will have to make it back to Cedar Point to ride it.

 

So I hope they choose the right thing to do, but with this big teaser video I doubt they are just leaving the space empty. And since they are removing it still in the middle or near the end of the season, and not when the park closes, tells me that they need to do it earlier to start making something for next year.

Maybe this is finally Centurion

Maybe they'll name it Ziz and all the CW fanboys will complain that Cedar Point stole their ride.

 

But Centurion actually made me think...

That graphic illustrates death. You guys are totally over-analyzing it.

It's a TPR forum. It's what we do.

[G Force]

The graphics illustrates Holloweekends, there is litterally a prop they use that looks exactly like that. Plus, how the hell does anyone get Iron Horse out of it? Like, what?

[KPfan]

It will be interesting to see how this goes. I personally think there will be a chop and retracking by RMC. Mean Streak has a fun layout already. Imagine twisting and diving through that big wooden structure.

[DoinItForTheFame]

. . . I think it'll be something totally weird and unpredictable (and unpronounceable). . .

 

 

So true. Between Rougarou and Valravn I can only imagine what Cedar Point comes up with next. My votes go to one of these:

 

OGOPOGO

Abe Sapien

Afanc

Architeuthis

Beisht Kione

Crocosaurus

Grindylows

Kelpie

Lobstrosity

Makara

Michael Phelps

Piranhaconda

Rusalka

 

Yeah. . . Now that you mention it some of those sound like something Cedar Point would go with.

One of the Discovery Channels did a show on CP and I remember on of the coasters with a wood structure had to be sprayed down with water each night. Was it MS and is that a significant cost factor?

[SteelForceless]

^ 1991 was a different time

[coasterbill]

I love Tony Clark.

[LiftThrill]

In case anyone's wondering what it's going to be called, I've found a list of potential leaks for the name:

 

Leak #1

Leak #2

Leak #3

 

These do make sense and will continue Cedar Point's naming trends in recent years. Please consider my information as Tony Clark is my grandfather's third cousin twice removed's stepson's ex-girlfriend's former roommate and has told me everything about the Mean Streak rehab but has urged me not to tell anyone.

I've never been to CP during Halloweekends so I didn't know. All I saw was a dark forboding graphic that looked like it had a Boneville animatronic in it. When we enter speculation mode anything goes LOL.

I love the name Minotaur

[WOFanatic]

I've always thought Manticore would be a great name for a roller coaster.

[southpuddle]

I for one hope that the new name doesn't have "Streak" in it, because every guess that has been thrown out has been God-awful.

[DorneyKid14]

Centaur - Half-men, half-horse creatures that ran wild and unruly.

 

This seems close enough to the "iron horse" name

 

Or Centurion...

 

Or maybe bogeyman streak.

[raptor6]

Since Cedar Point is located on the water and has a marina, I propose using the name that the UK rejected for it's new polar research ship: Boaty McBoatface.
