CPmaverick Posted July 29, 2009 Share Posted July 29, 2009 It seems like everyday I'm at CP, Maverick runs great (haven't seen any breakdowns all season). Whenever I'm not there, it becomes the Intamin we all know and love. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fisher1095 Posted July 29, 2009 Share Posted July 29, 2009 ^ Lucky you. I've only been to CP once, and it was only for one day, so I wasn't really looking for this in particular, but, I've been wondering... Is there a lot of unused space on Millie's Island... say, for another coaster? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FeelTheFORCE Posted July 29, 2009 Share Posted July 29, 2009 ^ The island isn't that big to begin with, so no, not really. It's pretty filled up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maverickrocks Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 I went up to the Point today, and rode Paddlewheel Excursions to look at the construction. I noticed some new construction (at least I think its brand new)...it looked like a small building. Right now it consists of wood frames, and it's pretty narrow, so it looks like something that would be used for storage. I didn't get a great look at it, but it was towards the inner center of the island. If the ride wasn't so rushed, I probably could have gotten a picture. And btw, for a day in July, today was very uncrowded. Longest wait I had was 45 min. Going when there's a chance of rain can often prove to be a good decison.

nyanko Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 I'll be at Cedar Point (for the first time since uhh, 2004, maybe?) on September 6 and possibly the 7th (Labor Day) this year. I used to work there, but haven't been in awhile (on the other side of the country!) so am looking forward to going out there again! Sooo aside from that big new rolleycoaster thing people are talking about, anything else new and cool? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terps252006 Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 Question. I went to Cedar Point in early June and was disapointed because Millennium Force's lift hill did not light up at all. Was this just a temporary thing, or have they done away with the lights on the hill? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I'm not sure if this is what you are talking about, but last time I was there we saw a few vertical wooden poles on Millennium Island. Those poles are very close to Millennium and I highly doubt that these poles mean anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CPmaverick Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 ^^MF's lights were not working at that time but are now fully functional. ^Those polls are for Terror Island during Halloweekends. Nothing to do with the current construction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cprocks22 Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 I was at Cedar Point Sunday Night/most of the day Monday, and I had a question for the locals or people that have visited since. Maverick went down around 2:30 on sunday and was still down when we left at 6 on Monday. Anybody have any word of if it's back up? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cavs Fan Posted July 31, 2009 Share Posted July 31, 2009 It was down Tuesday from what I heard, but was back up and running Wednesday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cooksta77 Posted August 2, 2009 Share Posted August 2, 2009 I was looking on my Twitter and I just saw something that caught my eye. From the CedarPoint Twitter: cedarpoint:Want the head's up on 2010? Stay tuned...somethin's brewin'! #fb Just caught my eye thought I should share.

KPfreak519 Posted August 2, 2009 Share Posted August 2, 2009 From Cedar Point's Facebook: "Want the head's up on 2010? Stay tuned...somethin's brewin'!" Looks like we have an announcement coming soon...I may be over analyzing this but the "something's brewin" tells me its going in Frontier Town (it sounds like a wild-west type saying) and will be a water ride themed to a storm.

dandaman Posted August 2, 2009 Share Posted August 2, 2009 From my PB post: The fastest coffee shop in the world? (Not at CP, that's for damn sure.) I sincerely hope they replace Mean Streak with a GCI woodie. If it's brewing we're after, I vote for Moonshine: The Ride. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
