RE: Announcement Coming In January

Okay, I think the clues are about all the changes they're doing. This one is most likely the replacement for Corkscrew, which means probably 3D/4D, which is bad for me. Can't do 3D with my eyes.
 
RE: Announcement Coming In January

If they do replace the Corkscrew hill movie, they might as well replace the projector system while they're at it. When they first made the ride they couldn't get a projector with high enough resolution for such a big screen. That's why they have (had?) 4 projectors instead of 2 in each simulator room--one per each half of the screen, per each eye.

That would be a huge departure from the type of events held at Busch Gardens and sounds more like something that would happen at a Six Flags of Cedar Fair park.

I would be completely shocked if that happened (and that would be a huge skate/bike park for an unproven event).

Well it looks like I was right.

It's the Action Sports Tour. It will be April 24-25. It's hosted by the Air Force Reserve. Solved.

You did indeed guess correctly, and I guess I was correct also since this is a huge departure from the type of events the park has held, I am shocked that they're having this event and it is a big stage for an unproven event.

Yeah, I guess the technology has caught up to allow for higher resolution, high quality 3-D attractions (Avatar). So, hopefully Corkscrew will benefit from it.

...And maybe some new chairs. The chairs that are in there have been in there since Questor and they aren't the most comfortable when bouncing around.
 
RE: Announcement Coming In January

I knew about the Action sports a while ago. I know of someone who got in trouble for leaking out that BBW was going to be removed last year. I decided to wait until the park talked about it before I would say anything.
 
RE: Announcement Coming In January

Thought I'd let you know I gave you guys a shoutout for solving two of the clues that Busch Gardens has dropped this past week. It may be on Screamscape tomorrow, so be on the look out (but I'm not promising that it will be). Check it out here.

The shoutout will surely not be forgotten by us, thanks!
 
RE: Announcement Coming In January

I'm going to be away from my computer so the only updates I'll be able to make will be through my phone today, so I'm counting on you guys to keep me and everyone else up to date on any hints that the park releases today. You've all been doing an awesome job for the past two days with the hints, so I'm sure it will continue today.
 
RE: Announcement Coming In January

I will do my best.

To the mods: You can edit the first post when news comes out. (Give it a minute or so to make sure I'm not working on it.)
 
RE: Announcement Coming In January

UPDATED THE FIRST POST (Sorry it took so long) :p

"A new clue for you: Busch Gardens is giving everyone a reason to stay up later this summer."
 
RE: Announcement Coming In January

I like staying longer. Hopefully the next clue will hint at something bigger.
 
RE: Announcement Coming In January

There's got to be more of a reason to stay up than the fact that the park's open. I'm hoping for an updated Royal Palace night show.
 
RE: Announcement Coming In January

If it is extended hours they already announced that on their website.

That would be a cheap clue then.

I don't think they would announce it on the site yet. I checked it for hours and show times, but it was the same times as last year, so either they are not changing their hours, or they are but haven't updated it on the site yet. BTW - I went to the Job Fair and I got a general application which comes with the times you would like to work and it is pretty much what their hours are going to be so they can see when you might be working. Therefore they already have their hours planned, and if that is the case they are not staying open later because the hours are the same as last year.
 
RE: Announcement Coming In January

New clue!

A new clue for you: What do cuckoo clocks, statues, Leprechauns and balloons all have in common? We’ll have the answer for you soon.

Uh, I have no idea on this one. Other than they're all for sale.
