^Yes but it is in that "area" and it appears that they are trying to limit how spread out the group is this year as opposed to years past when the ERT sessions were going on all over the park.

How many people typically turn out (rough estimate)?

I'm loving this years ERT announcement. TTD in the morning is a great way to start the day! Not to mention Millennium Force as well. I also like the fact my favorite Cedar Point flat ride is in the ERT, Skyhawk.

I think I would rather have the ERT be all over the park. I don't want 1000-2000 people all in line for one ride...that's not any different than a normal day. If it is spread out, so will be the people.

ERT this year sucks compared to how they've done in the past.
All the more reason why I am skipping this year.

^^That's exactly what happens, too. I waited 45 minutes for Maverick in 2007 during ERT,
...and the clocks were striking thirteen.

Hate to change the subject but this is for those who have been to Mayhem and Craze, how many usually attend Mayhem and Craze? Just curious because I'm thinking of doing craze next year and I'm doing Mayhem this year.

Top Thrill Dragster got balanced at the top again today for the 3rd time in its history.

Mayhem will be a bit more busy this year then the 2 I have been to because of Prowler. I think there were 30-60 or so at each of the last 2. I do not know about the first one in 2006 as I missed that one.

Craze last year was about the same and a lot of fun. Both Mayhem and Craze are very well put together. You will have a good time at both.

I see that Coaster Community is listed on the approved coaster clubs for CoasterMania this year. Jason, did you start printing membership cards again?

I actually cancelled the club.  They usually reach out at the beginning of every year to confirm club status but I don't remember hearing from them.
