I spelled it wrong. It's CLAKF... :roll: Sorry for the confusion, but all the clues toward the 12E have to be a nod towards EBC. It comes together perfectly...

And this explains the 12E on Disaster Transport: This link is especially for Keith, as it explains all the questions he had...

This my first update in a long time, hope it was worth the wait. Mostly about the teaser frenzy that is going around the park.

Hmm I wonder what that could mean..

Here is one of the banners that made us stop eating and start talking at the Coasterstock lunch.

Banner 2. As you can see they have drilled a ton of holes in the wall so people can look in. They also have removed the 2 small generic teasers they had at the original 3 holes in the wall.

Image

WOOT! Crate 2.0

Crate Porn

Ironically a big storm came through..

Another close up of the info on the side

I end this update with a Biscuit on a Hot Nasty Lunch Plate

EDIT: Log Flume Area Update

Don't know if anybody has talked about this part of the crate:

Net: 3'39 1'200 Lb

Anybody think that means ride time 3 minutes 39 seconds and 1200/hr capacity?

Would make sense for the lower capacity looking at the 20-30seconds of longer ride time...
Diamondback:
Ride time: 3 minutes 1,620 capacity
Behemoth:
Ride time: 3 minutes 10sec 1,545 capacity
Silver Star:
Ride time: 3 minutes 1,620 capacity
Goliath:
Ride time: 2 minutes 45sec, 1200capacity

Edit: I did more math into the capacity to see if it made sense

If you figure 3 minutes 30 sec ride with a 1 minute load cycle you could get 39 cycles per hour with 32 passanger trains thats 1248 capacity/hr

I think it literally means the coaster will weigh 3,391,200 lbs.

Here's a theory:

there is no track yet because they are going to RELOCATE ANOTHER USED RIDE to Carowinds
and we have to wait for them to take something apart and ship it to us!

Sorry, just kidding :lol:

Do you really mean that? The box is for hints about the ride. How much it weighs is a pretty cruddy hint in my opinion. Cool idea TadTAz!


I believe he meant the whole coaster weighs that much, not the crate. I was originally thinking the same that it was the entire weight of the ride, but the interpretation by TadTAz seems as good a guess as anything else I've read.
