DerekRx Posted July 11, 2005 Share Posted July 11, 2005 I think the funniest part about all this is that when I was at the park back in March, we pointed out the "construction dirt" next to Orient Express and told Dan to take pictures of it. In fact, I think both Robb and I have pictures of it way back then. I'll have to check my photo cds. Maybe some bigwig at the park saw Dan in his "professional attire" and thought he was a higher-up who looked at the site and approved it, and they're all going off of what he said.

DerekRx Posted July 11, 2005 Share Posted July 11, 2005 Yep, as I thought, I found some pictures of "site prep" way back in March. Looks like if you see dirt at Magic Mountain, its gonna turn into something. Be amazed at some samples of our magical predicting powers: Robb demonstrates how retarded you'll look and feel going into the intense pretzel loop found on the Flying Dragon Fence Queue Ride. Elissa says: "Why should we take a picture of this? Because it won't be here next year, thats why!" Moving dirt. This will surely become the queue building! Behold! Cracks in the sidewalk with orange spraypaint. This could only mean 3 things: 1. They are going to patch up the cracks. 2. Hoodlums were practicing their mad graffiti skillz 3. SFMM will just rip out the crack and replace it with a ride Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guy T. Koepp Posted July 11, 2005 Share Posted July 11, 2005 I understand all the Q-line and Q-building markers. However, I see no cason or support markers. We don't even know which direction this ride is going. The lift hill could go either way. If this is so, then the body of the ride could in theory be over the Log Jammer or in the reverse direction over Raging Rapids. I'll see if I can reconstruct both scenairios in RCT3 then make my decision. I hope they don't remove Orient Express. It's nostalgic. Besides, after a long day there, It saves time with two kids and a stroller. Take Flashback please! Then put in a 200' Screaming Squirrel. Â I've got a great idea for a video that I could do with that. Â Oh Robb. Nice picture of Elissa! Try explaining that one to a 5 year old! Â "Daddy, why is Elissa putting her nipples on that pole?"

Stupid Robb and everyone constantly bringing that back to haunt me. I was sick, jetlagged, and doped up on medication! That being said, it was cool to have a boob in each Carolina!   I'm so sorry. I was just passing along what Jarett said.  If the five year old already knows how to say nipples, it should already know that some things are best unexplained.  You don't have a 5 year old do you? EVERYTHING NEEDS TO BE EXPLAINED!!! (P.S. My 3 year old knows what nipples are)  Elissa, I feel really bad for you... the first picture all the nasty ACErs will see when they click the link on Screamscape will be Robb's avatar of your bistated breasts.  Again, Elissa I am so sorry.

SharkTums Posted July 12, 2005 Share Posted July 12, 2005 Videotape the Flying George Foreman Grill Ride of Hot Zamperla Death Ride...aka "Flying Coaster". The Half Pipe might also be kind of interesting if you get a good spinny ride on it. Â I've heard it's not the best place...but credits are credits dammit! Will you have time to hit Lakeside one night? That at least is a bit nicer from what I've heard. Â Elissa "Do the Celestial Seasonings Factory tour if you have time, it's awesome!"

Guy T. Koepp Posted July 13, 2005 Share Posted July 13, 2005 I may have time if their open late or if I have an early call. People don't like to pay me for more than 10 hours. It tends to hurt their pocket books. Â If I get out before 5pm I will head on over to Lakeside. I hear they have a pretty good woodie. Â I also arrive pretty early tomorrow. Mabey I'll take a jaunt over there after I check in. Â As for Monday, I don't leave untill 8pm so I'll spend the day at SFEG. See if I can't come up with some weird take on that U thing they have. I'm dying to CG in some great throw up gag. Â Guy "I love me some good wood" Koepp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This kind of loose "seating" provides a very natural, almost-like-flying experience.  Also take a close look at the test dummies: #1 looks like he passed out, rope was probably too tight :shock: #2 seems to enjoy the ride, low airsupply causes very enjoyable halloucinations, rope perfectly tied #3 leaves room for some more speculation, maybe the dummy's rope was tied too loose, or they just ran out of dummies   It might be the last coaster you're riding but I'm sure it's gonna be one hell of a ride! If it's too hard, you're too soft! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
