General Carowinds discussion

Consider my bubble effectively burst. :|

Hopefully Mr. 1095 can explain himself. I can't view the websites he supposedly got his info from on my iPhone because it's a flash site.

Maybe the code hints at something bigger. If EB Clefk did design Disaster Transport and is responsible for the 12E, the 12E on our crate has to be a nod toward him. It's even the same color. We do still have the "EBC" in our code.

So maybe it's EB Clefk's ____ ____ ____ ____ ?

Trust me, you're not missing much. There isn't a lot of information, just pretty pictures. No mention of an Eric.

Edit: Haha, or maybe it's a joke. Think about it, Disaster Transport looks like a giant shipping crate anyways, perhaps the art director at Carowinds was making fun of it.


That could be true. :lol: If it is a joke, then what would the IZ12ENUFF thing be for? :? I'm hoping B&Mcoaster1095 just got his last name wrong. That would make me feel a lot better and end this confusion.

Think logically, Carowinds has twelve roller coasters. Is twelve enough?


That would make sense then. I didn't realize Carowinds had twelve roller coasters currently. Maybe Carowinds spelled his last name wrong on purpose to make a joke out of it. :) Still don't see the point of making a joke out of Disaster Transport though even if the ride does kind of look like our shipping container. :?

No! :cry: A little over a week passes by since my last visit & suddenly there's a score of pages going on & on about passive photographers being accosted, coasterbruh signing his latest New York Times best seller, South Carolina having very lenient firework laws, something labeled Coaster Stock happened... so many topics came & went so quickly that I... I... I'm just gonna lurk over here in this corner until the track/supports arrive on site. Oh my aching eyeballs! :shock:

How about the Mercedes Benz paraphernalia stuffed queue for Silver Star?

There, I solved it. See, we can laugh, because Knott's just doesn't have the room for this type of hyper! All they can have is their short launched 'hyper'.


Why don't you give me a paper cut & pour lemon juice on it. :|

(For the love of PETE, please don't stone me for this.)

This explanation has never really made sense to me. That question has already been answered. It seems like if that was the type of logic they were going for, it would say IZ13ENUFF... As in do you think that this thirteenth coaster will be enough for Carowinds? (The answer still stands as "NO," for me :) .) I can't really place why it doesn't sit well with me, though. It just seems like the 12E has more significance than that.

Oh well. Time will tell, and my brain is baked.

**EDIT** After seeing a certain person's behavior on another park's fan site, I'm quite certain all of the ITEC buzz was completely made up :roll: ... but I still feel the 12E is important.

I just started looking around the ITEC website and Cedar Fair is listed as a client of ITEC. Then again, almost all the other theme parks in the US are listed as well. No sign of the guys name yet.

The 12E could just hint that ITEC may be involved with project 2010. I just don't believe that one person gathered so much information on this mysterious man and nobody else has been able to do so. The only thing anyone found is that his name was Eric. There is no mention of a last name or middle initial. As a matter of fact, if you do a white page search on the internet, it can't find one instance of the last name "Clefk" or "Clakf." To test the engine I searched for my own last name and got over one hundred instances and, believe me, my last name isn't common. :evil:

Of course, I could be wrong, but the burden of proof isn't on me now is it? :mrgreen:

Ummm...who and where? I can't find it. :? Hopefully you're not referring to me because I didn't know anything about this Eric guy and ITEC stuff until B&Mcoaster1095 brought it up. Speaking of which, where is he? Hmmm.... :roll:

I really think...unless this Eric guy is some confidential person (ha), that this is all false... We need to see those websites, 1095!
The 12E hasn't been explained on Disaster Transport either, mind you. Of course there are many rumors as to why it's there, but I don't know which one to trust, if I should trust any.
As for the IZ12ENUFF, the 12 E obviously stands out, creating as much of a mystery as the big 12 E at Cedar Point. I think it makes more logical sense to do the 12, rather than the 13, because just when you think Carowinds won't ever get a new coaster, they ask you Is 12 Enough?? We all not the answer to that...no!
Well that's my input to all of this! let me know if I'm wrong about anything.

Does anyone know right off if Diamondback had a teaser box? I've looked and cant seem to find anything on it, so I'm assuming that’s a no....
