Ccron10 Posted August 13, 2009 Posted August 13, 2009 It seems like CP has made our guessing job a little bit easier: http://www.cedarpoint.com/public/fun/poll/index.cfm The poll options are roller coaster, thrill ride, restaurant, Halloweekends, and a new children's area. Personally I think water ride, but since the Whyte Lightning name has been tied to 2 other Cedar Fair projects and having a MF logo, it could be possible. Just because they don't have footers yet doesn't mean it's not a coaster.
haux Posted August 13, 2009 Posted August 13, 2009 They're throwing you off! It's none of the above. Besides, a poll asking what the park will build? Will the most votes mean they build that? Ha.
Ccron10 Posted August 13, 2009 Posted August 13, 2009 Exactly. That's why I think it might be a water ride. Unless they want us to think it's none of the above.... lol. Right now I'm just open-minded and don't care what they get since they already have 18 decent coasters (somewhere there's probably a CP fanboy yelling at me. lol), but personally a water ride wouldn't be a bad choice.

Ha. They already know what they are building, they just want to see if people guess it right. Water ride is out since it is not an option. And apparently they are reading these type of forums as they know of all the different speculations about the "island" being turned into a halloween thing.....given that was one of the options, and how many gp type people would look at that website and really understand what all that meant anyway?

eddie200330 Posted August 13, 2009 Posted August 13, 2009 Facetious?? Exactly, the only way to truly get through these "mega" threads with any kind of sanity!! LMAO
CorkscrewFoley Posted August 13, 2009 Posted August 13, 2009 This whole Whyte Lightning thing is insane. I've even tried running it throug an anagram program, and getting nothing.
HCLcoasters Posted August 13, 2009 Posted August 13, 2009 ^ You have an anagram program? I don't think even CF would do that.
coastermoosh Posted August 13, 2009 Posted August 13, 2009 ^ You have an anagram program? http://wordsmith.org/anagram/
CorkscrewFoley Posted August 13, 2009 Posted August 13, 2009 That would be the one. I used it a few years back with Intamin coming out witha new inversion...Flair Loop...I had to try...was hoping to crack it.
chemical_echo Posted August 13, 2009 Posted August 13, 2009 Water ride is out since it is not an option. A water ride can be a thrill ride.
Diamondback'09 Posted August 13, 2009 Posted August 13, 2009 On Twitter just recently a girl said she was excited to see what Cp is building next year and that she was going to Halloweekends in two months. Cp replied and said that she will know whats going on before then.
Homeboy23 Posted August 13, 2009 Posted August 13, 2009 ^ Hopefully soon so we won't have to guess every style of ride out there.
HCLcoasters Posted August 13, 2009 Posted August 13, 2009 ^ I think we already have! By the way, a tent has been spotted over by Gemini where work trucks are usually stationed for a new addition to the park. It may be nothing but you never know.
Reality15 Posted August 13, 2009 Posted August 13, 2009 By the way, a tent has been spotted over by Gemini where work trucks are usually stationed for a new addition to the park. It may be nothing but you never know.The tent you speak of has been around since 2007. It is the storage tent for the Halloweekends parade floats, and is located between the Planning & Design building and Gemini. The stationing area for new additions to the park has always been either the Soak City parking lot (Dragster and Millennium) or near Breakers Express (Maverick).
GriffonFan09 Posted August 14, 2009 Posted August 14, 2009 I still think it's gonna be a new roller coaster
coolcalicoaster Posted August 14, 2009 Posted August 14, 2009 No one has mentioned a Dive Coaster. It could be a possibility right? I am not a huge fan of them but it would be a unique experience to the point. I dont care what they build but I am not a big fan of the games CP plays. Really annoying
HCLcoasters Posted August 14, 2009 Posted August 14, 2009 A DM is way to big for the plot of land that's availible. Sadly I don't think that it would work.
atem122 Posted August 14, 2009 Posted August 14, 2009 Doesnt CP have some Intamin contract? Or am I just really stupid?
LJGoBlue Posted August 14, 2009 Posted August 14, 2009 ^Yes I have heard of that before, but I'm not sure if it is actually true. Supposedly when MF was built Intamin made a contract for five coasters in ten years. So far they have built three since: TTD, WT, and Maverick. If you add MF that makes four plus whatever is to be built in 2010 would be five, thus fulfilling the contract.
coastermoosh Posted August 14, 2009 Posted August 14, 2009 That's an urban legend (or wishful thinking).
eddie200330 Posted August 14, 2009 Posted August 14, 2009 If this is the area they are looking at building upon, I really don''t see much in the way of a coaster going there as MF already occupies pretty much all the available ground space with supports and such??
coasterdude5 Posted August 14, 2009 Posted August 14, 2009 ^ If they want something to go there, they'll make it fit.
