SSE Question

Hm. Nothing reallly caught my eye in the first few. Still can't really see anything.

One thing though: what is that cage like support that goes over the ride vehicles in the "triangle city" pic? Is that just for the triangles, because that is a pretty hefty structure to just hang a few triangles from, and it wasn't there in the "94 version. Something else must be coming for that last part of the descent; otherwise, why that big structure? :shrug:

Thanks for the pics, cueball! :wave:

One of the things I remember from reports coming in during the refurb was that new structuring was going in....I think that was from one of the big Merf Flame fests.:rolleyes:

Ah, okay, I do remember that now, and now that you mention it, I also remember the report about that structure going in. :lookaroun :lol:

Goooood...I think that was the one where we found out that SSE was opening later than expected...And all hell broke loose.:lol::lookaroun

Even though Merf was a *cough* he did make the forums VERY interesting.:lookaroun:eek::lol:

All hell broke loose because me, Katie and Doug had that big SSE reopening meet planned and SSE went into extended rehab about a month before the meet was supposed to happen. :dazzle::dazzle::dazzle:

I thought we were going to flip out. Actually I did flip out. :lol: There is nothing like organizing a meet and then having the whole reason for the meet not be open. EGADS!

*dies*

You don't remember that? It was over a year ago that we started planning this meet for when SSE was going to reopen and then one of us happened to look one day at the rehab schedule for EPCOT and it was showing SSE closed through the end of the year. :eek:

Mad dash, scramble, panic, heavy drinking, panic....:lol::lol::lol:

We rescheduled - and the meet was fantastic...but the original thread about the meet that I started (IIRC) had some choice mental breakdown moments.

Ah....memories.

Oh, yes, the CNN kitten crisis. :rolleyes: Wow, it was that long ago already, back when I was just a mere reader of these boards. :)

You've come a long way, baby.

I know - I miss Doug (Horizons78) around here. I had thought we were going to have this big future of meet-planning. :D Me and Katie are still having the meets, though. That was our first one. Our next one will be at EPCOT again in February. ;)

Hey! Maybe if you're lucky, SSE will actually, finally be completely finished by that time, even though that's what everyone thought at the last meet. :rolleyes: :lol:

You never know - hey you live in Florida...you should come to the meet. We are still working on the date but it is going to be a blast as usual.

Ohhhh, I'd love to get to one of these meets (I truly wish I could have been there for Epcot's 25th), but unfortunately, I'm only 17, and I don't think my parents would take too kindly to the idea of me heading to Orlando for the day to meet with a bunch of people they don't know and would probably consider a bunch of strangers. (For the record, I don't consider you a bunch of strangers, but my parents probably would. :shrug:) And I don't think I'd be able to influence them enough to come with me. While they are Disney fans, they are in no way hardcore Disney fanatics like I am. :eek:

I hope you understand, I'd love to go, but in all likelihood, I won't be able to. Give it another year maybe, and if you plan another one of these meets and I'm still in the state, I'll make every effort to get to it. :wave:

I'll be going there again this Saturday...so maybe I can take a look and grab a quick pic (unless there is one hiding around somewhere).

I did like the new effects (added star fields and more triangles). The triangle effect was nice...are they really projected or is it just light refraction? Have to take a closer look next time.

HAHAHAHA! I always align myself with the young boyz. :lol::lol::lol: Sheesh. I am going to get a terrible reputation around here.

Wait a minute wasn't that cave-like ceiling part of the old Peppers Ghost scene?
