I heard they were fun the first time, but after that it wasn't fun.

Well our winters are just slightly better than Cedar Point's, Kings Island's, and Canada's Wonderland's, so that wont be the cause of the delay lol.

It was suppose to be sarcasm but that is difficult to express in text.

I dont see us getting a windseeker. I still say its a Huss frisbee. The clues just mean "wind". I dont know I just dont see a windseeker being an investment they would make at Carowinds, not sure why but its just doesnt seem like they would. I dont get where the "wright brothers" theme came into play? What did I miss :lol: I dont know at this point I am just unsure, especially if the stakes in front of intimidator havent returned? With the purchase of additional land though, it does make me wonder if we will be getting that GCI in 2013. Wish I new exactly where the land is.... Oh well its going to be fun trying to figure this out until the 24th.

^^Why are people still thinking the stakes in front of Intimidator were anything more than a bit of trickery by Carowinds?

It's almost too obviously a Windseeker at this point.. I wonder if there will be any more clues in the next 22 days. Would be poor form if they shot their wad already.

I'm most curious now where they would put it if it is indeed a Windseeker, I would think the Intimidator field is out, being too close to Skytower and Intimidator. Back near Hurler is one possibility, but would absolutely dwarf Drop Zone. Back near Thunder Road.. that could be interesting.

EDIT:

I'm reading the wiki page for Windseekers .. and it says the four that opened this year were all announced on.... wait for it..

..August 24th.

Near WWF, Carolina RFD is about dead except Cobra and Whitewater.

I'm defiantly going for a Windseeker. It wouldn't be too bad to have. You would get a great view of Carowinds and Charlotte. I'd defiantly rather have a Huss Giant Frisbee, but oh well. The August 24 announcement aiming towards a Windseeker could be a planned foolery, just to trick us into thing that... But Who knows? I mean, the GCI and HUSS GF markers were kind of obvious 'trick shots' by Carowinds. They know how we all work :roll:

That is a great point that our Windseeker would have an advantage over the others is being able to see the Charlotte skyline from ours. Except Cedar Point's since flying over Lake Erie sounds cool.
