Cedar Point (CP) Discussion Thread

Boo! Hiss! Just because it's running slow for an RMC in 30 degree weather during the last week of March, it's overhyped! We want a refund!

[joelwee]

 

More POV teaser... Looks slow and sluggish to me. Definitely an overhyped ride. I definitely wouldn't go to the park the 3rd week of May, if I were you.

Crap, that looks disappointing. Looks like I'll be marathoning Corkscrew during my CP trip instead.

What a uneventful letdown; everyone take their Daffy Dollars to Six Flags Worlds of Adventure this spring thank you very much.

^ Don't listen to this guy. Steel Vengeance sucks, and it's going to suck the most on June 1.

 

June 1st? Psht, there's no way this thing will be any good until at least after June 7th...

Guys. We all know it will suck forever. It will never be good and it will never be worth riding. Just skip it every visit.

Has anyone seen this yet? OnPoint Blog post about some extra social media people attending the Media Event. Go read the article, and then read the LAST requirement to apply. Fine, don't go, just read this:

 

"We want to see how you’d produce content about a certain subject. So, for this exercise, we're going to use something you should have easy access to: a fork. It can be any kind of fork. Plastic, stainless, fancy or otherwise.

 

Photograph it, write about it, video it – tell us why this fork is the best fork you’ve ever seen. Or tell us what you like and don’t like about the fork.

 

Post it on your official social channel with the hashtag #ThisForkIsForSV and provide the link (in the email above) to that post or video."

I can't wait to see #ThisForkIsForSV. If I had a dedicated channel to all things roller coaster, I would have so much fun. Anyone on here going to give this a go?

[thedlr]

There is no fork.

[steamedturtle]

That's hysterical. But it's also awesome that he's giving an opportunity to people that don't have audience, but either do, or have to potential to produce great content.

 

There is no fork.

 

...And there is no Steel Vengeance.

[RAWKIN_coaster38]

That's forking brilliant!

 

I really wish I had a coaster channel right now, if anything just to write a stupid post about a fork.

 

I reallyyyy hope someone posts a fork POV! (without mouth involved, let's not go there.)

[bert425]

I have no forks to give.

 

 

 

(no social media channels or even snapchat either)

[bert425]

There is no fork.

 

the fork is dead.

 

Long live the spork

Actually, I just realized I have one of these...

 

And the fork is a "secret knife", too.

Something something world's tallest hybrid.

[anonymouscactus]

Hmmmm... I think I'm going to do this. 8) -- just thinking about how to get creative with it. I'll be riding coasters this weekend for inspiration! Maybe filming a fork in a competing park and tying it in somehow. I normally do stylistic music videos so... hmmmm... interesting. I'll let you know what I come up with

 

edit: have two amazing ideas, just hoping I have time to make the magic happen

[WOFanatic]

Well, just got done with my 45 minute fork photo shoot.

[RAWKIN_coaster38]

Steel Vengeance = spork.

 

Please make this a thing.

[ytterbiumanalyst]

Long Live King Steven the First of Sporklandia!

 

[MiABeta]

Am I the only one is acting like a kid checking the TPR and Cedar Point multiple times a day impatiently waiting for the full ride IRL pov???

 

And I loved the fork thing , if going to college to be an engineer didn't have this big of a workload I'd probably run a small social media account like they want.

[thedlr]

I mean, you guys are definitely on to something with the spork. Hybrid roller coaster meets hybrid eating utensil. Plastic Vengeance! The world's most record breakingest mouth shoveler.

[cal1br3tto]

^^^I'm not sure if that graphic just ruined sporks forever or if it made them infinitely cooler than they already were.

[ytterbiumanalyst]

I'm not sure either.

[DoinItForTheFame]

Omg!!!

 

This new POV of SteVen looks amazing!!!

[Nrthwnd]

^ Well, someone had to do it.

[ytterbiumanalyst]

Omg!!!

 

This new POV of SteVen looks amazing!!!

Sweeeeet! Love it.

 

This angle is even better.
