coasterdude5 Posted January 6, 2007 Posted January 6, 2007 Geboldi Earth Final Park for Geboldi Chain MEMPHIS - Geboldi Parks announced today they will be discontinuing their park chain after their mega-park, "Geboldi Earth" is complete. The parks will continue to operate, though it is uncertain whether or not the Geboldi name will be kept or not. "We've had a great run with the chain," said CEO Dan Geboldi, "but it's time we lay off the amusement industry and let some new ideas come into the market. It's been my pleasure to serve all of these people over these past decades." After the announcement, rumors circulated that some parks, (Geboldi Island, Geboldi Lake, and both Geboldi Studios) would close. "At this point, it is a possibility," Geboldi stated, "we know for sure Geboldi World Port, Geboldi Earth, Geboldi German Gardens, Geboldi Europe, Geboldi Wild Safari, and Geboldi America will remain open." The chain has begun to nosedive financially lately with some parks losing money. The chain hopes to sell off some parks, or break off and start a new chain. Geboldi said that new parks will not be opening. "I'm not sure if Geboldi itself will stay or go, it's up to whether buyers are open to the idea." However, Geboldi states will continue construction and that possibly, Geboldi will stay and only operate that park. "Our parks are all on high-value property, we will do everything in our power to keep them open but in the end, it will be up to the buyers." All parks (at this time) are expected to open for the 2007 season. I am allowing anybody who seriously wants to continue a park to do so. The only catch is, you have to rename it, without the Geboldi name. PM me if you are interested. THESE PARKS ARE AVAILIBLE FOR SOMEONE TO CONTINUE Geboldi Lake [reserved] Geboldi Island [reserved] Geboldi Europe [reserved] Geboldi Swahilli Village [reserved] Geboldi Florida Studios [reserved] Geboldi California Studios [reserved]
Myself Posted January 6, 2007 Posted January 6, 2007 Does this mean your Geboldi Lake Resort saga will end unfinished?
coasterdude5 Posted January 6, 2007 Author Posted January 6, 2007 No, that's a fake park, it doesn't exist. Deep Valley 2 will continue as planned.
Steffen_Dk Posted January 6, 2007 Posted January 6, 2007 Oh... That was good!! I was very close to be worried
thefitness Posted January 6, 2007 Posted January 6, 2007 Sounds like a neat idea,why did you decide to stop the chain?
coasters 4 me Posted January 6, 2007 Posted January 6, 2007 I would absolutely love to do this, only if my RCT3 worked properly. It is messed up at the minute.

Tobias94 Posted January 7, 2007 Posted January 7, 2007 I'll take Geboldi Swahilli Village. I sent a PM to you John
jamesissoocool Posted January 7, 2007 Posted January 7, 2007 I`ll take Geboldi lake i`ve sent you a pm
Chris Benvenuto Posted January 7, 2007 Posted January 7, 2007 I'll take Florida Studios and take a look of what I can do. is it RCT2?
coasterdude5 Posted January 7, 2007 Author Posted January 7, 2007 ^ No, the only RCT2 park is Geboldi Europe
coasterdude5 Posted January 7, 2007 Author Posted January 7, 2007 Announcement: All 6 parks have been "sold". I'm almost done sending out download links. If you got a park, please read this: - - You have 3 weeks to at least start some kind of progress. If not, there are alot of other people that probably want a shot. - - Please make your own thread (don't use the former Geboldi ones) - - Most of the scenarios do not use custom scenery, but you can add some if you want. (Swahilli Village uses pumper's custom supports)
thefitness Posted January 7, 2007 Posted January 7, 2007 Darn,I just missed Geboldi Florida Studios! If any one wants to "sell" I'm a potential "buyer"
coasterdude5 Posted January 7, 2007 Author Posted January 7, 2007 There's still a chance man, just wait a few weeks to see if someone doesn't do anything with the park. I did this on a first come, first serve basis. I thought of doing a bidding deal (based on your park-making skills), but I didn't want to start a battle or anything, haha.
thefitness Posted January 7, 2007 Posted January 7, 2007 ^ Good Call that could've gotten ugly. I've been searching for Geboldi Florida Studios,but can't find it.Could you post a link?

coasterdude5 Posted January 8, 2007 Author Posted January 8, 2007 5 Geboldi Parks to Remain MEMPHIS - Geboldi announced today part of the chain will stay open despite considerations for a total chain sellout. "We're thinking this will work out in the long run," CEO Dan Geboldi stated in a press conference, "these parks that have been sold off have all gone to independant owners. These parks need individual attention rather than being a part of a chain." Geboldi stated that there has been a concern over the chain not owning a studio park. "There's always a small possibility we might add a studio park to Geboldi Earth later down the road, but as of now, that is not likely. However, we have plans for a studio-like attraction venue for the Geboldi Earth Entertainment Hub." After Geboldi Earth is completed, the chain will conclude attraction additions. "We will continue to add to Geboldi Earth for a few years, but unfortunately, this is somewhat the beginning of the end (of updating, anyway) for the other four parks." The five remaining parks will all open for the 2007 season. The new Geboldi Logo
