Team Brava/Castle - Carowinds Brainstorming Workshop

[Magic Feather]

If it's simple things like renames and so, it can be done in just one sentence. And I'll do some edits to the budget, so there can be 20-30M Budget for Ride Retheme, is that amount okay?

Sounds great.

@AceAstro since you're doing the map, what location did you had in mind for it?

 

[Magic Feather]

@AceAstro since you're doing the map, what location did you had in mind for it?

Not ace, but these are your best options. Yellow would take over a theater and the rapids ride, but would have Fury 325 looming over it, and makes the park loose its main water ride and biggest (ampi?)theater. Purple is Dinos Alive and has intimidator behind it, but it is intimidator's shorter hills, unlike how yellow has Fury's lift. Green is old parking lot with entrances replacing the Yoyo and secondary park entrance that is open seasonally.

Thanks, I'll think about it and get back to you, ASAP!

Maybe we can use red for the area, queue, and launch tunnel. And create the show building in the old parking?

Sounds good to me, I believe the Carolina Cyclone is the the one we’re retheming for the Muppet Land!

Will ricochet be removed for Muppets or also rethemed?

I don’t know, @AceAstro or @DisneyManOne may know, as they are in charge of the area.

Announcement: I've begun uploading completed material onto the team's presentation slideshow. I'll continue to do this as sections are completed. You're able to edit further in the slideshow.

Any feedback is appreciated. This just seemed the best way I could help my teammates out today.
