Only thing you have to do is go back afew pages and you will find what you are looking for to help you find your way back. It is easy to understand as it someone owned the http://www.iamlost.com then any if the owners wanted to do any type of sub domain then they could such at http://www.coasterpunk.iamlost.com then they could without having to register it since it is a sub domain. But no one else can register it since it belongs to the owner of http://www.iamlost.com.

I hope this helped you find your way back. If you see any sub domain with www.subdomain.carowinds.com then it is something that was put out by the park or the company that owns the domain. I could go into more examples but I think that should cover it. Even if it is misspelled since it is just a placeholder for the site.

And I still find it strange they would misspell their own parent company's name.


They didn't. It was the web designer, and as Keith said: They don't give a rat's butt how it's spelled. Or something like that. Well, off to band camp... :shock:

"One time, at band camp........" no need to go on.

I'm going to be glad to see Aug 26, put this to bed! And the updates will be coming a little farther in between since the park shuts down weekly operations soon. Hopefully they will turn on the web cam soon after the announcement. I'm still excited though to see just how big this dippin' dots stand is going to be!! mmmmmm 8)

Actually, it wouldn't take too much time to do that, very little money, and very little effort.

I could be wrong but I'm fairly sure Dani said that the surprise would not be sent out until after the announcement on the 26th.

I have a question for the coaster experts out there. It may seem stupid, but you never know unless you ask, right?

From what I've seen so far, those against a launched coaster use down time as the main reason. Is it possible to have a launched hyper with a traditional chain as back up? This way, when something goes wrong with the launching mechanism you end up with a standard B&M hyper... I've designed one in NoLimits, but obviously that's not reality. :mrgreen:
