Maybe not on their own but with all of the combined elements it is what I am hoping for, personally.
Of course, that was just a joke.
Yeah, that hasn't happened. No sets have been struck or damaged by tight corners to the best of my recent knowledge. There have been common issues but nothing that is causing me to have a Gringotts hemorrhage just yet.
Just the screens then?Of course, that was just a joke.

Referring to your post yesterday alluding to screens and vehicles damaged, or perhaps I'm reading it wrong.

That was all a joke based on Briman's whimsical stacking the RV's post. I had to run it into the ground with that humorous missive.
OK. But you had all of us believing it really happened. That's why it's alluded to in a number of posts on this forum. The humor was a little too British dry for us commoners.

Then I apologize to all that thought me to be serious. You all thought that?
It's good to hear it's not true. It was starting to sound a bit Gringottish, especially combined with the other poster's post that they had to redo that one outdoor corner. Heh, all's well that ends well. You're still the best, even if you don't use an LOL emoticon with a dry joke.

Yeah, I must hark back that I have gotten myself in deep trouble in real life with what I thought were absurdest overkill humorous statements.
Actually you're kind of victim to your excellent reputation and success as an insider. Many of us hang on your every comment for a clue to what's "really" going on at Universal. So we probably are sometimes guilty of reading too much into some of your comments. Keep up the good work, my friend. You're still our best interpreter of Universal Creative creations. :thumbsup:
BTW, I am starting to think that many of you haven't seen how these massive 360 screens are built. They are massive steel cage structures that curve both horizontally and vertically as well. They are then covered with the screen panels in such a way that speakers are aligned behind the screens in rows. It is all quite something and a very expensive build.

This is Universal's rule for operating outdoor attractions, including roller coasters and water rides:
Lightning within 10 miles: Operate, with audio warnings to guests that it may close.
Lightning within 5 miles: Do not operate.
Light Rain or Medium rain - Operate
Heavy Downpour (hurricane conditions) - Do not operate
I'm sure KONG will follow the same rule. They will cut the ourdoor portion when lightning is within 5 miles.

:thumbsup:That's a real nice find. It clarifies a lot of questions.........It kind of reminds me of our directives when I was a high school soccer official. If we saw lightning, we were to immediately cease play for a minimum of 30 minutes. But if it was raining, no matter how hard, we would continue play. Of course we didn't have to deal with hurricanes in western Pa. ( just their aftermath sometimes)

I totally got that it was a joke. Maybe I am just too used to Teebin's humor now
Those aren't intended as steps but jolting bumps on the ride.
