I don't want anyone to think I am knocking on Carowinds. I love that place. Its not like I wanted to ruffle feathers either. I was just saying IMO Carowinds gets a coaster in 2019 or 2021 not 2020 and if anything was to happen CP would get something. That's all! Lets all just enjoy that our parks are owned by Cedar Fair!!!

Revenue does go up yes, But it would go up by the same amount unless it were a record breaking coaster. You could add some family rides and it would be the same amount of revenue if you added a coaster because about 45% of the revenue is from season pass holders, Not from people who travel from other places. Please nobody reply to this because I am not an expert, just putting in my two cents :D :D

We're not saying that your bashing the park, just trying to make you see that Cedar Fair isn't afraid to add more than one massive coaster in a year. (See 2013 and 2018) Also, there is absolutely nothing as far as rumors go that support the idea that CP will get a coaster for their 150th.

Well I have not heard any rumors that far in advance away either. I am not saying that other park won't get anything. I'm simply stating I could see CP getting something BIG on their 150th.

You can't just preface a statement about a true/speculative subject with "IMO" and think it makes it somehow more valid. If you went in for a CAT scan and the doctors believed they may have found something, you don't say "well IMO, I don't have a concussion."

Opinions are ideas about facts, not facts (though none of us can confirm what Carowinds or Cedar Point will be getting in 2020).

[EDIT] Read through some of your past comments too and now I think I have a concussion. :lol: Yes, we're all allowed to have opinions, but when you state your opinion AS TRUE, it is no longer an opinion. You just seem to be pushing this idea of "this is what's gonna happen, I'm pretty sure of it", then when people call you out on it, you use "it's just an opinion guys!" as a cop-out.

What coaster could CP honestly get next. You guys will have everything after the RMC opens. What would you like to see. We all know what kind of coaster(s) Carowinds eventually needs. Just curious on your opinion. You seem like a cool person that enjoys conversation.

Anyway...... My opinion is mine. I can say how I feel or what I think. Does it make it true no. I am just guessing that's how it is going to go. seesh.

Hey that's thats why I am here. Convo's about parks we love! Some people get so uptight. I haven't mush thought about what i'd like to see. I will say i'd love to see another Intamin in the park. Maybe something we have never seen yet. Its a couple years away so ya never know haha! I'll always chat...it just sucks that people like to be rude.

Disagreeing with an opinion (esp when stated as factual) us nit being rude. Dissenting discussion is just that. No one here was being rude. We just disagree.

I do not believe I ever stated it was a fact. TBH. Also If you want to see rude look at "tarheels" last post.

First post on it by you was telling everyone not to count on something happening which seemed to imply you know something. I obviously wasn't the only one that read it that way.

Tarheel isn't being rude. In what way is that rude? Hes responding with facts. Hes also no a noob here and knows the community.

So now when anyone says "don't count on it" means its a fact? Huh I never knew that!! It was rude. IMO :roll:

When I say that, and I've said that here, on CC, it's because I already know whats up. It seems everyone who contradicts you us now rude. Have that opinion but you won't last long around these parts.
