if we were getting something big for 2013, we would already see land clearing and maybe some groundwork going on. My bet is something new for the water park, which is desperately needed!

Speaking of land clearing, does anyone by any chance know what that land being cleared behind Hurler is going to be used for?

That isn't where the land purchased is. Look at this thread to see where the new land is located.

I see us getting what Cedar Point got next year, racing slide and dino alive. But to be honest, I would rather see a water coaster or funnel type slide.

Or one of those slides where the floor drops out from under you and you slide down a very steep slide. Then it can do whatever, possibly a loop like on Scorpion Tail at Noah's Ark.

Not a bad idea.

I have now added a water coaster similar to Divertical in Italy to my coaster wish list. It would provide something different, add another coaster, plus bring back something water related. In addition to that a blue fire Megacoaster/iSpeed/Cheetah Hunt/Speed Monster style Intamin or Mack launcher and a GCI woody would round out my top three coaster wishes.

I believe most of the people on this forum think our next coaster should be a launch coaster or a GCI woody. If we get a launch, I would like something like iSpeed or Maverick.

[chunkyskunk]

I totally agree. It does seem like those two coaster types are the most requested, especially the launcher, and they both make sense for the park. Maybe one of them will happen in 2014 as it is looking more and more likely it will not happen next year.

[Picklesthedrummer]

I would be very satisfied with either a blitz coaster or a GCI woodie.

Random question but I know it will be read here, who keeps deleting the storm damage threads. I actually got pics and were deleted by someone. Isn't that what a few of us was looking for?

Screamscape is reporting the Dinosaur Alive rumor for 2013 which I think many of us are thinking we will get and hoping we will not get. It also mentions surveying in Planet Snoopy. I was at the park in Planet Snoopy twice this past week with my nephews and did not notice anything but then again one of them is only two years old so I was not really looking for survey markers there.

Oh, how amazing, dinosaurs alive. , even worse, they are putting it where a possible waterslide could go.

Dinosaurs, in a parking lot. yay. what a waste of the action theater. I say kill the dinosaurs Alive idea. Turn the Action Theater into an XD Theater. And have like 4 different movies per day. Like this

In all truth, AFX should be capable of playing different films all ready, they Ripley's Moving Theater at Myrtle Beach shows 2 films, one of which used to be SpongeBob. Oddly enough 4D effects aren't present on the Paramount rides but a key feature on newer models which also have smaller theaters. Funny how Paramount Parks introduced the SimEx simulatiors but never updated them past adding 3D when Six Flags has/had 4D.

Anyone have any pics of the survey markers? curious as to where they are and how far apart they are
