I'm going April 22 to get my pass processed. So I will most likely be taking some pictures with my new digital camera I asked for for my birthday which is the 18th. I can't wait to see this coaster in person.

They might be who knows, nobody here is watching it 24/7 (at least I hope not) so if it tests chances are nobody would have seen it to report back here that its testing.

I'm 85% positive that they've tested... Especially based on those pictures that showed the dummies on one of the trains in the shed.

Has anybody or know of anybody who has been contacted by the park yet to attend the media day? I'm just curious because I attended NCC in January and I know they do it by drawing.

This year they did it by names. If your first name was Clark or Kent you could send in to be apart of Media Day, there is also a Essay Contest that will let you be apart of Media Day. So unless your good at writing or first name is Clark or Kent then you have to be apart of the Media to go to Media Day.

Yes, I have been contacted and I am going ( I'm with the media...) And what CoasterDude316 Said, those are the only other ways to get in if your not media. The little invitation they send you is pretty cool, its a little superman logo inviting you to "Fly With Superman". :)

Yeah, I entered that "Search for Heroes" Essay Contest... We'll see what happens! I guess they decide who the winners are around April 16th, so it's getting pretty close already!

It will be done in time, I don't have any doubts. They still got a half a month to go. If anything I think they will finish a week before Media Day.
