Starting to Decode 2014

Featured Replies

Could the way an owl captures its prey point to coaster elements?

"Other species prefer to soar, or make quartering flights, scanning the ground below for a suitable meal. When a target is located, the Owl will fly towards it, keeping its head in line with it until the last moment. This is when the Owl pulls its head back, and thrusts its feet forward with the talons spread wide - two pointing backwards and two forwards.

The force of the impact is usually enough to stun the prey, which is then dispatched with a snap of the beak.

Owls can adapt their hunting techniques depending on the type of prey. Insects and small birds may be snatched in mid air, sometimes after being flushed from the cover of trees or bushes by the Owl.
Owls that catch fish may skim over water, snatching fish on the fly"

(quote cited from http://www.owlpages.com/articles.php?section=owl+physiology&title=Food )

Soaring, being snatched mid air, brushing with trees(AE?), high height

"impact" dives all sound fun to me.

    For those waiting for when we'll announce what we're building for the future, you might want to grab yourself a Snickers bar. It's going to be awhile. We still have the majority of the 2013 season

I just searched on Google for "Banshee Owl" and it brought up this result http://rivelata.pbworks.com/w/page/6152215/Banshee%20Owl

I couldn't find many other results finding a specific "Banshee Owl" but it's interesting nonetheless!. On another note, many people believe the wailing of the Banshee in folktales to actually be a Barn Owl's screech.

New twitter post:

An owl themed coaster? O Rly? Ya Rly!

Might want to make sure what the poster is refering to before trying to correct them.

The use of the word "woot" as in woo hoo ,and similarity to the noise a owl makes "Hoot".

1) An interjection similar to "YAYE!" or "Woohoo!" used to express joy or excitement, usually about some kind of accomplishment. Primarily used by gamers, spreading rapidly to anyone who chats online

Just got back from the park. I forgot to bring my camera so sorry no pictures...

It just looks like a lot more footers are about to be poured, escpecially in the former Thunder Alley area.

Maybe they will announce it at IAAPA! If it one of a kind or game changer!

Might want to read my post, realize I was using making a joke about the tweet, and move on.

If only there were cranes instead of crows and an owl... Hmmm how fowl.

Edited : ^^ That's almost a haiku....

Much better! :)

All of the clues seem to be pointing to Banshee, so clearly the ride will be named Corn: The Ride.

Excellent decoding there Diamondbacker27! Now all we need is the announcement. B)

Gonna be a very fast ride - slicker than owl sh*t

Just out of curiosity, what made most enthusiasts predict "mustang' before Diamondback was announced?

I remember this

And honestly, it wasn't that far off from the actual ride layout! Did they make that after the news channel leaked the blueprints?
