coasterfan21 Posted August 19, 2009 Posted August 19, 2009 1 Day to go I cant wait. It ought to be a great ride since they're reporting it as there largest capital investment in history.
BeemerBoy Posted August 19, 2009 Posted August 19, 2009 It aught to be a great ride since their reporting it as there largest capital investment in history. I hope it rides smoother than this sentence.     Come on, people. You can do better than that. Nobody's perfect, but this is pretty basic stuff.  They're = They are  Their = a form of the possessive case of they used as an attributive adjective, before a noun: their home; their rights as citizens; their largest capital investment in history.  Practice
KDCOASTERFAN Posted August 19, 2009 Posted August 19, 2009 Picture of supports being installed: http://kdfansite.com/gallery/displayimage.php?album=lastup&cat=0&pos=0 Â Looks like a turn or helix may be going there.
Olsor Posted August 19, 2009 Posted August 19, 2009 Come on, people. You can do better than that. Nobody's perfect, but this is pretty basic stuff. Â I've been an editor for 10 years, BeemerBoy, and I've long since given up hope. Most days, I feel like Luke Wilson in Idiocracy. Â That said, ZOMG!!!11! gigacoaster!!! w00t!!!

cfc Posted August 19, 2009 Posted August 19, 2009 ^No worries. We all make mistakes from time to time. Oh, and "aught" should read "ought."
PriestofSyrinx Posted August 19, 2009 Posted August 19, 2009 So if this coaster is the rumored 350 feet, this would (to my best knowladge) the tallest non launched or tradional coaster in the world. Â And if it is, Cedar Fair will shove it down our throats.
coasterfan21 Posted August 19, 2009 Posted August 19, 2009 ^^Ya I noticed that also after I posted the message, sorry, I will change it.
Capitalize Posted August 19, 2009 Posted August 19, 2009 Low to the ground turn of some kind!!!!! Â I can't wait for tomorrow!

Â And if it is, Cedar Fair will shove it down our throats. Â ET is 330 ft. tall & the job description is for someone willing to climb to heights of at least 350 ft. which is 20 ft. taller than ET is. Â We'll all find out in less than 24 hours when this beast is finally announced & I can't wait.
pkdcoaster Posted August 19, 2009 Posted August 19, 2009 Everybody is gonna complain that it is "only" 305ft................................................................................................. Â Â Â JEFF
Mochtroid Posted August 19, 2009 Posted August 19, 2009 I have an idea to kill time: We figure the chances of certain things regarding the coaster happening. I'd say a 99%chance of it being visible from the freeway, a 5% chance of an EGF drop, a 90% chance of an overbanked turn, and a 80% chance of people complaining about it not having enough airtime. Â Post your odds here.
pkdcoaster Posted August 19, 2009 Posted August 19, 2009 http://www.rcdb.com/3799.htm?p=21771 /\ Multiplied by 3 Â that is all......................... Â Â JEFF
coasterfan21 Posted August 19, 2009 Posted August 19, 2009 ^ Ya Intamin has been making some great compact coasters lately.
kingsdominionlvr Posted August 19, 2009 Posted August 19, 2009 Mega Lites look spectacular, I really hope this giga packs a whole lot of airtime, but if not it will still be a beast.
themeparkman25 Posted August 19, 2009 Posted August 19, 2009 I really hope this giga packs a whole lot of airtime  Join the club!
kingsdominionlvr Posted August 19, 2009 Posted August 19, 2009 Where do I sign up? LOL Anyway, if they make this compact I really hope it does not mean maybe sacrificing airtime, another good idea would be to add helix's (i.e. Ride of Steel) towards the end of the ride when the momentum has slowed a bit, personally I consider those more fun than overbanked turns.
HCLcoasters Posted August 19, 2009 Posted August 19, 2009 Helixes are not good at all. especially RoS type ones.
Ccron10 Posted August 19, 2009 Posted August 19, 2009 I really feel this coaster is going to be unique and the biggest project for 2010. I am really going to keep track of construction for this coaster even though I might not get down there to ride it next year. Â My feeling on the design is that they better have the layout different from MF. This is the second giga made by Intamin and it needs to be unique. My guess is that the trains will probably be different since MF's train design are nearly 10 years. Â I can't wait to see the computer-animated POV and layout.
