Based on the various things we have heard, do we think there wont be a soft opening period? Like the ride will just open on time and thats it

I think there will be softs...

I'm going down to Orlando for a couple days next week and really hoping softs will happen next Friday ray:

Hope you get lucky. You've become a real coaster stalwart over the years. Revenge of the Mummy converted you well. :thumbsup:

As big as the lagoon is, you'd only be talking about a 2 acre island.

Maybe not a fully themed island But it would be nice to have more options than just "clockwise" and "counterclockwise" when choosing a route.

Such a bizarre take...

Wait for FW...IOA's lagoon is part of what makes it special

I'd like to confirm to everyone that of 5:40, May 31st, Hagrid has resumed testing!!

Edit: I don't for how long, because it is about to start raining here...

Me too, Mon-Wed....not expecting anything, but if it happens I'll take a ton of pics for here

Such a bizarre take...

I mean, i'd enjoy being able to cut straight from PoE to Jurassic, so I don't find it bizarre, I just know it's unrealistic.

Time for the IoA chunnel!

Time for the IoA chunnel!

Maybe we'd encounter a Mosasaurus along the way!

Ok, back to Hagrid, sorry for the slight derail.

Don't use the word derail in this thread! You'll start everybody off again.

Alicia's comment on what the major issue was. From her site Theme Park Stop. Yesterday....In answer to a question of what the major issue was that halted testing, "Roughness of ride underestimated and putting extra stress on trains. Trains may need extra reinforcement, or to undergo regular maintenance more often until trains can be upgraded. This may cause decreased capacity at first".................sooooo, it sounds like thrill seekers will really love this ride.

This was in response to a question about the minor issues actually.

Soooo. what was the major issue then.....

Drop track was going up rather than dropping.

Was leaving holes in the roof. Apparently the engineers put it on upside down.

Just what I heard.
