Ccron10 Posted September 10, 2007 Posted September 10, 2007 The 3rd one down does seem suspicious. Maybe that Mike Peiffer guy has something to do with this? Looks like he recently resigned from the company until 2010. I guess we'll see what happens on 9/26 or 9/27, but we'll actually find out the truth a couple of days later.

peteb Posted September 10, 2007 Posted September 10, 2007 Please not a multi looper Intamin head banger like Colossus ! If it's gotta be Intamin something like Expedition GeForce would do just fine. And no OTSR's !

coasterdude5 Posted September 11, 2007 Posted September 11, 2007 Just throwing this out there, but does anyone think the 12.1 million price tag could have some relation to the height of 121 feet? Some reason I remembered hearing that height mentioned somewhere. My coaster-nerdness is really showing this time, haha. Thanks Hersheypark.
yankees15 Posted September 11, 2007 Posted September 11, 2007 ^It very well could be. I never even noticed that connection.
Cheesey Posted September 11, 2007 Posted September 11, 2007 I figured out what I believe is the final riddle from nantimi.com...I don't want to take the fun away, but from what I have seen so far, the new coaster IS intamin and WILL have inversions...And the installation of the new ride will result in some slides being torn down...Have fun figuring it out...
Axman Posted September 11, 2007 Posted September 11, 2007 I betcha they're building it where the "Western Chute Out" slides are. With the Boardwalk, Hersheypark has no need for wet/dry slides.
Cheesey Posted September 11, 2007 Posted September 11, 2007 Its killing me being the only person to know this...Took me about an hour to figure it out...So I will share my find...If you do want to figure it out for yourself read no further... I unscrambled the letters for the link on the portfolio page: /themtravelled.thRu It took me a little over an hour, but I finally have solved what I believe is as far as one can go in the puzzle. Unscrambled, the link is http://www.nantimi.com/truthRevealed.html And there you go. The biggest teaser for Hersheypark's new ride out there. Just go and see it for yourself.
Electerik Posted September 11, 2007 Posted September 11, 2007 ^ Nicely done! Electerik Head of the Hangers On
OriolesManiac88 Posted September 11, 2007 Posted September 11, 2007 Wow, nicely done. From the pics, you can tell that it is definately some kind of coaster, and that it will be going where the Chute Out is currently. Things are getting very interesting now.
Axman Posted September 11, 2007 Posted September 11, 2007 When ever I press down my mouse scroll wheel, while scrolling up or down, everything that moves is instantly paused. I made the picture window small enough to be able to scroll, and then pause the clip at a flash that show's a ride concept up-side-down. I looks wild. There's a tower.
OriolesManiac88 Posted September 11, 2007 Posted September 11, 2007 Yea, I saw that too. Looks like it was drawn on a napkin or something. Couldn't exactly make out the design, maybe it was because I didn't realize it was upside down. I gotta take another look now.
krazekiddd Posted September 11, 2007 Posted September 11, 2007 Here are some of the photos. 1007sm_frame_001.bmp 1007sm_frame_002.bmp 1007sm_frame_003.bmp 1007sm_frame_005.bmp 1007sm_frame_006.bmp
OriolesManiac88 Posted September 11, 2007 Posted September 11, 2007 Theres one more which says "Things are not what they seem"
krazekiddd Posted September 11, 2007 Posted September 11, 2007 ^Hense the word some of the photos. I figured not to post the one with a phrase, just the ones with an image.
mikomeko Posted September 11, 2007 Posted September 11, 2007 ^^^ By the 2nd to last pic - it's a Maverick clone!!! Looks like one of the horseshoe rolls! Seriously though, it's Intamin so it has to be good, and I can't wait for the barrage of posts when they release the info on the ride! Awesome so far.
timetrial3141592 Posted September 11, 2007 Posted September 11, 2007 AQUATRAX!!!!!!! Not really... I'm hoping for inventive multilooper.
easytoremember Posted September 11, 2007 Posted September 11, 2007 At this point, if this was not done by the park, I want to meet the person that did this. Sheer genious. From the upside down concept drawing, if it is actually what its gonna be, it looks like an extremely extended Intiman Launch with one tophat type thing and a good layout afterwards.
asr Posted September 11, 2007 Posted September 11, 2007 I really don't think it will have a launch or a top hat. They have Storm Runner already which has both.
natatomic Posted September 11, 2007 Posted September 11, 2007 You know, I tried unscrambling the /themtravelled.thru, but despite the fact that it's already in URL form, I didn't even think to try to keep it as such. *slaps self on forehead* Duh. So, I just kept getting "The Truth Marvelled," which never really got me anywhere. Good job figuring that out! I tried.
asr Posted September 11, 2007 Posted September 11, 2007 Looking at the ride design again after flipping it, there definatly appears to be a top hat, and there is a cleary visable cobra roll. I can also make out what appears to be an airtime hill or zero g roll, and a vertical loop, and maybe another airtime hill or zero g roll. Also, how close is Storm Runner to Western Chute-Out? Because of the top hat and launch, I had the idea that they could be adding on to Storm Runner. Ofcourse, that would make all the "Better then a perfect 10" comments pointless, unless after the modifications Storm Runner had 11 inversions. EDIT: One problem with the Storm Runner modification theory is that they would probably have hints involving Storm Runner if it was true. And when was the last time a major ride was modified so quickly after it was first built? The only thing one can think of is Turn of the Century at the Great America parks that were modified into Demon 4 years after their original debut. However, as far as I know, Hershey is pretty low on space, and adding onto another coaster would take less space then an all new coaster.
FeelTheFORCE Posted September 11, 2007 Posted September 11, 2007 I don't think they are modifying anything. I wouldn't rule out another Intamin rocket just yet, though. With all the success they've had with Storm Runner, mechanically-wise and also popularity-wise, they may want to build another, I wouldn't be surprised. I'm still not ruling out a B&M either. This could be the first launched B&M (Hulk doesn't count as being traditionally launched, in my opinion).
