Vonni Posted February 18, 2017 Share Posted February 18, 2017 I just wonder where these pictures the park doesn't want posted are coming from, because they seem to be taken on the peninsula on the road that leads to the water park entrance. So they are coming from someone who has access to the property. And I would assume the only way to have access to a penninsula property during a closed time would be with permission? It's all so confusing lol! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluestreak Posted February 18, 2017 Share Posted February 18, 2017 I assume it's a year round employee that's doing it without permission. He sends it to friends and friends send it to more friends and yea... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MidwestThemeParks Posted February 18, 2017 Share Posted February 18, 2017 ^I thought about posting that picture a few days ago but didn't think it revealed enough of Mean Streak to make it worth it Tony is having so much fun with this coaster not being announced Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MartinU Posted February 19, 2017 Share Posted February 19, 2017 ^I thought about posting that picture a few days ago but didn't think it revealed enough of Mean Streak to make it worth it Tony is having so much fun with this coaster not being announced No lie, last night I had a dream about this. I have no idea why, but I did. The dream started at last rides on MS. As we exited the ride there was a sign for MS, and I thought, "Well, they are not going to need this, I wonder what's on the back of the sign." I look behind this sign and there is MS 2.0's layout! It was called HYPER (terrible name) and had the rendering. I take a quick picture of the layout. But things get bad quick. I freak out because Tony is walking my way! So, now I have this information of a sick layout, but I can't share it or Rob bans me from TPR because CP did not release it (even though it was on the back of a sign in the park. OR, even worse, Tony bans me forever from Cedar Point because.... Tony. The stress was too much and I woke up. What the crap, I think to myself. I have no idea why that was my dream, but I guess my subconscious wants to ride this thing, and soon. (I have met Tony before, and he's just as cool of a cat as you would expect. I don't think he would just ban someone.) Bill, I will have to tell you about the Von Roll dream, being built in my backyard. Seriously, I check in here like twice a week, this is getting out of hand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stonem Posted February 19, 2017 Share Posted February 19, 2017 Could we be looking at a tophat with airtime down into a cockscrew Medusa/Storm Chaser like drop? Don't mind me I've been drinking. That's what I have created on Planet Coaster last month. Damn, I hope RMC will build a different element, cause differently I would have to sue them for stealing my idea (just joking) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

canadianparkfan Posted February 19, 2017 Share Posted February 19, 2017 That Twisted Horseshoe Roll though. . . Source. Never got how the horseshoe roll counted as 1 element. Always looked like zero-G Rolls back to back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Password121 Posted February 19, 2017 Share Posted February 19, 2017 It is. Roller coaster elements are made up by the park/manufacturer, there is no "database" of what actual elements are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KJ7500 Posted February 19, 2017 Share Posted February 19, 2017 How's that water park expansion coming along? Can we at least see some pics of that? Since, you know, there's this other major construction project just a few feet of Lake Erie and somehow nobody is supposed to see it... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jonskinny12 Posted February 20, 2017 Share Posted February 20, 2017 The horseshoe roll is 1 element and 2 inversions. Similar to a cobra roll or a number of other elements with multiple inversions. That's how I've always seen it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thrillseeker4552 Posted February 20, 2017 Share Posted February 20, 2017 While still much better than some other coasters, Maverick is definitely starting to fade quite a bit (it's especially noticeable if you watch the new POV Cedar Point uploaded on YouTube). I wonder if they'll repaint it a nice bright red in 2018 when its new neighbor draws most crowds back there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

southpuddle Posted February 20, 2017 Share Posted February 20, 2017 I'm usually against altering the color scheme of major coasters, but I would love it if when Maverick gets repainted, if they changed the support color to a dark brown instead of the tan that they are now, and the track to a more muted red. It would just make it feel more western. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thrillrider Posted February 20, 2017 Share Posted February 20, 2017 I remember about 5 years ago, some guy got escorted out and banned for lighting fireworks off in line for raptor. I also remember security escorting a guy out of line (raptor once again) for smoking a bowl in line and trying to pass it around to random people.
