Comeagain? Posted May 19, 2014 Share Posted May 19, 2014 I don't want to be responsible for truancy - go to bed and get a good night's sleep! I guess you better release the information soon! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raven Maven Posted May 19, 2014 Share Posted May 19, 2014 Years ago, some enthusiasts were visiting during the winter months and one talked about having to miss our Stark RAVEN Mad event because of a college exam. I joked that I'd be glad to write a note for his teacher. Gads - he took me up on it! I did write the letter - it was very soft and "education is very, very important" and I felt like a crumb. But I just wanted to affirm that there really was an event that day. And by golly, the prof let the enthusiast take his exam early! But I'm never offering to do that again ...

aCoasterStory Posted May 19, 2014 Share Posted May 19, 2014 ^^ sounds epic as Iron Voyage but how can voyage be more perfect that it already is? I found it to be one of the more violent and painful wooden coasters I've ever ridden and couldn't believe it was a top-rated coaster. Maybe it was having a bad couple of days, and maybe some of the sections have been re-tracked since, but there are very few rides I've been on where I was only halfway through and wished it would be over and Voyage was one of them. I had no problems with Raven or Legend, but Voyage was not at all fun for me. I think a huge chunk of it is that those PTC trains are just not designed for that extreme of a coaster. I would totally welcome some kind of modification to Voyage to make it actually enjoyable, whether a GCI retracking (and some new trains) or an RMC makeover (I think just topper track would be sufficient, but again with new trains as well).

HWFan Posted May 19, 2014 Share Posted May 19, 2014 Has anyone noticed the site? It almost looks like things will be announced day by day, slowly over the course of 66 days. http://www.holidayworld.com/66days/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HWFan Posted May 19, 2014 Share Posted May 19, 2014 When I hover my cursor over the "66 Days" words, it says, "The Diary of my Journey." I'm interested to see who the specific person it may be referring to is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It almost looks like things will be announced day by day, slowly over the course of 66 days. http://www.holidayworld.com/66days/ So, this looks like the new attraction will be placed within the Thanksgiving section, at least based on the page appearance. How about a Voyage II? Anyway, whatever it is, I expect it will be awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kyleparks77 Posted May 19, 2014 Share Posted May 19, 2014 What a night for my internet to be down! Having to follow all of this on the trusty iPhone. Pleased to see the 66 days site is very mobile friendly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZeroGravity55 Posted May 19, 2014 Share Posted May 19, 2014 The http://66DaysAtSea.com link is now live. Now for some type of hint or info to be released.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrlittle Posted May 19, 2014 Share Posted May 19, 2014 TPR Mini-New Hotness tour starts in 66 days. Not that it has anything to do with this, just thought it was cool that it landed on the same day. (If it is 66 days away from an announcement) It should be interesting to follow along and hopefully get hints each day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrapesLie Posted May 19, 2014 Share Posted May 19, 2014 Oh the suspense is killing me! And hmmm, what if they are building a new coaster and doing a iron horse treatment on Voyage! You know two kinds of gravy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
