Well he didn't specify if it had to be a poster on this board and the odds of "someone" seeing a sign are pretty good.

Yes

Another lame attempt to insinuate you're of a privileged few who may know more about the goings on behind the scenes within the park. If you have something to share, then share it. There's a big difference from saying you happened to see something specific versus divulging specific details about what may be going on. The continued subliminal hints and vague comments are so sophomoric it's exhausting.

This time it was sarcasm, BiT, not elitist.  I'll allow it.

Lighten up, Francis. 
Tanner knows I was just picking on him with my sarcastic response. 
Seriously.  If a one word response gets you that wound up, it might be time for you to step away for awhile - it's not that big of a deal.

Okay, let me rephrase my question. What signs did people see today pointing towards the 2017 coaster?

And yes, I understand the sarcasm. ;) And do you now everyone's name Swoosh?

Guys - be careful insinuating that I'm elite and know everyone's name.  Little BiT won't like that.

Good Grief

Anywho, the 17 announcements are starting already. BGW will add a GCI woodie with a metal support structure and it will interact with the flume quite a bit. Seems I've wanted a new coaster for SDC to interact with American Plunge for a while. Looks to be a solid family addition with 9 airtime moments.

Okay I just went over this thread. $30-$40 million is quite impressive. Wildfire (my favorite coaster at SDC) was only in the teens when it was built.

If I were to make a guess based on trends from other B&M coasters in recent years, I could see them trying to top Banshee or Thunderbird with a 4000+ ft long track. Perhaps a launched Wingrider or an Invert with a 180-200ft drop with the first inversion being made as you take the first major drop along with several theming/pass thru elements and several subsequent inversions as you progress along the track.

I was looking over EH from the main path through the leafless trees and was starting to image B&M track winding around that huge space!!!.  That could really be an amazing setup!!!!  Not sure how they are going to be able to pull off the theme though :-\
