April 21, 201114 yr comment_113914 I believe there are loads of hints already especially in the tweets.

(with reference to the Japanese Government tweet earlier today)Three U.S. Presidents have been elected while living in Illinois — Abraham Lincoln, Ulysses S. Grant, and Barack Obama.Aerial view of the area I traced the latitude/longitude to:
April 21, 201114 yr comment_113922 The funniest thing happened today. My sister went to the park today and I asked he if she saw any new posters for a new ride and she said no. I though that was a bit odd after seeing the photos posted. So about 10 minutes later at the dinner table I quietly said "The end is coming" which caused he to look at me in shock. She explained how she saw a man who was being really scary saying all these things and being escorted by security. I laughed so hard as she actually thought he was a genuine madman!I eventually explained to her the reason for it and she seemed to think it made sense. It did make me laugh how she couldn't link this with a publicity stunt for a new ride although is 14.
April 21, 201114 yr comment_113925 Someone on this page is looking FAR too deeply into random connections...An E-cookie to the one who can work out who...
April 21, 201114 yr comment_113927 ^^^I dont think that has anything to do with the ride but yeah well done :L
April 21, 201114 yr comment_113930 That is amazing, I adore that and it is exactly the kind of thing I was hoping Thorpe would do to promote LC12.
April 21, 201114 yr comment_113931 I hope this continues cause this is brilliant and makes the wait even more exciting
April 21, 201114 yr comment_113942 Look out for more hints on August 1st!http://lc12.net/One of the actors had this around his neck and he was promoting theend the world!
April 21, 201114 yr comment_113943 More and theory, but so as not to spread the same discussion on different threads... It will come and they will not stop!From LC12.netPossible hint towards some sort of alien / monster being involved in the theme. If that were to happen (similar to Raptor in some ways I guess) I'd be very happy!
April 21, 201114 yr comment_113948 NO aliens! I reckon its the goverment cause they keep refering to that in their tweets
April 21, 201114 yr comment_113952 This is fantastic, I just love it! Blimey, by 1st August we'll all be exhausted - and that's just the first announcement! Great job from Thorpe on this, I hope they keep it up all year :DIn other news, why do I get the feeling Mr Fever knows more than most...
April 21, 201114 yr comment_113953 So, what happens in 101 days then? That puts us around mid Aug. So maybe an official announcement of ride and name to coincide with the track arriving?
April 21, 201114 yr comment_113958 I hope the rides story has nothing to do with UFO's. LC12' s twitter account is following a UFO site ....... I hate sci-fi crapI am completely with you. I hate Sci-Fi films they just don't do it for me As for the advertising and marketing I really like it, someone highlighted on TowerTimes in one of there Tweets it was B and M, LOL SW7 (Secret Weapon 7) FTW. I laughed.I'm going to keep checking the source code, I kept clicking imbedded links to see if they went anywhere, unfortunately nowhere interesting just javascript.
April 21, 201114 yr comment_113962 By the way, the chinese writing in the google search is completely unrelated.lc12.com was already taken by what looks like a chinese shopping site. It did seem a little weird that they had to go for a .net domain, so checking .com was my first reaction. just a bid of bad luck on their part really
April 22, 201114 yr comment_113967 Don't you think it is more realistic if it is a .net seeing as in my eyes it is some madman trying to convince everyone of the truth from his home?
April 22, 201114 yr comment_113977 The past few tweets look very interesting..We must warn the masses RT>> @mayancalendars: All these Doomsday predictions…Aliens from Nibiru…UFOs…Secret government conspiracies...@yochessington don't watch me...look to sea, the sky, the edge of the world. It's coming, the end, it's comingThe waves will come. They will wipe us all. The waves cannot be stopped. #apocolypse
April 22, 201114 yr comment_113979 Yeh so were the actors running around with sandwich boards on yesterday... They put a smile on my face!
April 22, 201114 yr comment_113982 Could be waves of anything though. Zombies, aliens, unicorns...So, so far we've just got an apocalyptic-post nuclear-mayan-end of the world-government cover up-y mess of themes. So I'm guessing it'll be Mayan 2012 end of the world, in the form of zombies or UFO invasion ("The waves cannot be stopped") which has caused this devastation (the crash site) and the government are trying to cover it up.Wow that made no sense.
April 22, 201114 yr comment_113985 It was rather interesting yesterday to see LC12 ads suddenly starting kicking around. The man in the cardboard apron was doing a good job, too, quite amusing actually. It got people's attention, too.However, everywhere you looked you could see at least one sign. They are everywhere! Most of them are peeling off as well. It was crazy. Stuck on to game stalls, hiding right down in the queueline extensions, covering up signs... Crazy. But well done to Thorpe Park for going to the effort.So, things get exciting from here onwards!
April 22, 201114 yr comment_113988 I dont know about you guys but I have a funny feeling that this ride is Terminator the ride with refrences to Skynet and machines and aliens................... IDK :S
April 22, 201114 yr comment_113990 It won't be Terminator. It's been done already (even though it isn't Terminator any more) but also everything in the plans would look WAY more industrial if it was.
April 22, 201114 yr comment_113991 So, what happens in 101 days then? That puts us around mid Aug. So maybe an official announcement of ride and name to coincide with the track arriving?1st August 12pm
