When I measured the footing and got 18"

So you are saying the footer you used on the diagram is drawn to exact scale in relation to everything else in the diagram and you extrapolated your math from there, right? Thanks.

Another person asked this and it went neglected, and I’ve been wondering this too. There has to be a chance that B&M has a new lift system that can go steeper than the assumed 45 degree lift? 

I'm not an experienced member by any means, but I think we all need to remember a good member (The Interpreter)'s (paraphrased) words to us all:

Those who know do not speak. Those who speak do not know.

@DustinTheNow Is your layout of the track you drew based off the coordinates of the supports

im pretty sure hes just poking fun at those who dont want to share the pdf hahaha

Found the screenshot

Reminds me of the DB layout that got leaked way back when...

So... basically you're determining this by saying that the footing is 3 feet wide... and it's to exact scale with everything else in the diagram... and a little over 111 of those footings would fit withing the length of that lift hill? Thus around 335 feet?

 

How did a program determine this? Is it measuring pixels from the .jpg? Or basically like a ruler overlay? 

 

Are things like representations of footings drawn to *exact scale* in diagrams like these? I had always assumed not. I would assume the actual distance scale they put on there would be accurate. Can you explain how you arrived at this in a little more detail?

This guy or gal used Bluebeam, and yes it has a measuring tool based off an initial calibration.

Correct. I've double checked it with the detail that dimensions the footing at the base of the lift as well. Section 1/S3.3.

No way in hell thats real.  I could have drawn that with my eyes closed.  I’ll believe it when I see.  Seems to work best for me although this thread is definitely entertaining

I’m so confused. I can’t tell what’s real anymore lol. Was this real? Who made this?7692fe0798549e03e4db93043c88893f.jpg

Best quote of the day!   My sentiments exactly!  Lol!!!

You standing by your 335 prediction? Thanks for all info.

If we can't see the screen shots of the PDF could a user who saw it at least draw us up a version of the layout like the one above?

For now. It's possible the actual angle could be 46° or 44°, which would change things slightly. This is just an estimation based on an image. ;)

Can someone PM the leaked photo that was quickly deleted. I want to see it, too.


It’s not going to happen buddy sorry to tell you haha.

I think all the people who have the screenshot and aren't sending it just like the attention. Sad really. Wouldn't't be surprised if some of the people claiming they have seen it really haven't.

May I ask why I, along with other members, can't seem to get our hands on the PDF?

We are surrounded by meanies who are holdin out on us

I agree! Some people might just be looking for attention.

okay so uh? you have the lift hill going the wrong direction? soooooo? the real blueprints we can prove are real show the lift going project north. not the direction youve drawn it. 

 

Except, as was proven on the Mystic Timbers Plans, Plan North, And True North are not the same.

That’d be like RuthlessAirtime and I went and got the documents, told everyone we had them, and then said we weren’t sharing them.

This is wild. I don’t know what to believe!! We’re the plans REALLY leaked? Or is this just something a few people said happened? I feel like this is fake.

But as Kissfan4 said a couple of pages back, and what I have always thought as well, "They will use the coordinate sheet for the locations, then use the detail drawings provided for the specific dimensions and tolerances the footers have to meet." i.e. they show the footers location but they're not drawn to scale, i.e. you can't scale things off the representation of footers on the diagram. They're not to scale. The only thing we have to go on to give scale is the actual length scale they gave us, that's its purpose, which indicates the lift hill is around 200 feet long.

 

You're saying the length scale is wrong because of your estimation based on the footers as represented on the diagram. It seems to me that the actual length scale given is more likely to be accurate than to scale things off a 15 pixel wide representation of a footer, which from what I can gather, is not intended to be scale accurate. 

Yeah because I’ve gotten a ton of positive attention from this. Is it that hard to believe that I actually care about people’s hard work and don’t want to leak the entirety of the project that was not supposed to be leaked? I thought the second I saw the layout I’d be filled with joy and happiness with knowing what’s coming to the park but instead I’m filled with anxiety. This whole summer we could all have looked forward to all the tiny clues and rumors and have fun debunking them but instead you guys want to know almost everything there is to know. I get it you are all curious but think about the park for once. If you were Don or Chad would you really want everything leaked like that by someone who Broke their NDA? Sorry for thinking about the park instead of myself.

I'm thinking it's not legit as well, but dont discount things just because they seem simple...

Can you at least tell us if it looks good or not? I just want to know a little about what is coming.
