I know this doesn't really have any effect on figuring anything out or anything, but I have two comments on this whole thing.

 

1 - Even though we still don't know much about the ride, I personally enjoyed this whole detective process and hope more coming rides do a teaser thing kinda like this, it shows some appreciation to the enthusiasts (even though its not their primary goal.)

 

2 - I love the way that Intamin (I know its not confirmed but it looks like it) has backed off the keeping going higher thing (Kingda Ka f.e.) and now is taking a step back and just implementing really cool elements that make rides with normal footprints and normal heights feel so much more exciting then simple/short tall rides. All I can say is that I went on Maverik over the summer, and it beat the crap out of Kingda Ka and TTD. At least to me, I love the look of a complex twisting layout, it doesn't have to be the tallest ride ever.

This might not be new, but did you all see the Office Manager description on the jobs page?

 

"Office Manager

Nantimi seeks candidates for a position rewarding organization, forethought, and general pleasantness. Duties include quarterly budgeting and office supply management. This is not an entry level job. We prefer experience; however, enthusiasm and cultural buy-in will factor strongly in your favor."

Good work guys! The puzzle is completed!

I can really see this coaster be an 11 inversion coaster, but could it fit into the site? When I went to the park on Sunday, part of the column serveying markers went over the path in kind of like a curve. This section could be the part where it returns to the station.

2 more days!

Wow, this ride looks superb. And question, when is this game thing, and where is it? For I would like to join in on the fun! This ride looks pretty cool. I believe I counted 6 Inversions. And does anyone see that there are 2, yes 2 vertical spikes, because the 2 sow in the pic both have COMPLETELY different supports, and one looks like a lift.

 

EDIT: Here are the rides this thing reminds me of all crammed together//
