From El Toro Ryan's Instagram, the park has ripped up more of the pavement around Project Purple.

You could see it starting in the videos and pictures from yesterday. Cuts and sections missing on that side. Thank god! Also another promises-made-promises-kept from Ryan E. He said a few times earlier this year the new coaster would not be a "parking lot coaster." 👍
 
yes, and it seems all the forced positivity has circled back into a schizophrenic kind of hatred thru which negative comments that are at direct odds with a person's stated preferences are concocted and implied to be attributed to them 😍

this could be us but u guys demand that I get arms before u will sit with me but I refuse to conform by getting arms

all the forced positivity
The thing is, it's not "forced positivity." We just genuinely like what we see. At least I do, and assume several others do.

Speaking of what I see: Every time I look I see a picture of this coaster, the first thing that comes to mind is a brontosaurus skeleton. Am I the only one? I'm sure that will change once the tower is finished, but in its current state, the inverted launch looks like the brontosaurus' back, and the partial tower looks like its neck.
Hmmm... a purple dinosaur... could this be... The Barney Coaster?

The positivity is forced upon dissenters. Pure intentions wouldn't excuse the behavior anyways

If u see inelegant, completely unstylized repetitive support structures like those for the stall and choose to biomorphize them bc the track is purple I believe that suggests more good will than I feel the average customer will read into the structure, but I also acknowledge my negative bias. Everyone else denies how much they want to see this succeed because of the park's situation more generally and pretends like this is both the best roller coaster ever AND the best possible development for the park

This is neither the best coaster ever nor the best possible development for the park. Nobody is pretending it is. But that doesn't mean it's bad. We are using nuance, which appears to be a novel concept.
 
Inelegant, completely unstylized, you say?

Repetitive, you say? NOTHING like a bunch of triangles stacked inelegantly on top of each other, right?

yes, and I'll say it again. u people have the reading comprehension skills and thought permanence of 2nd graders

I'm also gonna guess this is ur first time encountering "inelegant" as it relates to a structure. It's obviously a subjective assessment but if we're gonna try to quantify it in the sense of "ratio of the length of track supported to the area/volume that it and its supports occupy" I think kingda ka's top hat has to be up there, probably outdone by superman escape from krypton, and maybe will be outdone by the tower section of phantom spire. we'll see

you're (collectively) not though. it's blind glazing to the point of satirizing those who don't agree
