“The ones that we’ll be suing will be Cedar Point and not Mondial.”
Someone is pissed that they didn't get a contract.
Pardon my questionable words here, but how the hell does a F@#$%&! company have the right to sue someone else for ADDING, NOT CREATING, A DESIGN! THIS IS UTTER CRAP!
And thus i end my tiny rant. I just don't get how a company will sue you for not buying with them.

Wow its getting so bad at CP and CF for that matter that they cant even build a ride with out it causing them to get sued.
I'm mostly upset because I find it fun decoding all the clues they are releasing on their Facebook. The good thing is I would have been so much more upset to find out it wasn't a wooden roller coaster now then in a week. I'm not worried about Cedar Point, basically Funtime should be suing Mondial (so should HUSS for that reason), what case do they have other than that CP did not buy from them.
"Park staff later claimed that they were offered a hundred bucks a pop to try to the slide, but refused after seeing that test dummies often emerged on the other end dismembered. The looping slide was actually closed down for most of the park’s life due to these injury concerns."
It's like this.
Let's say you made the same recipe of chicken as someone else. I ate a piece of that chicken. Does that mean that you should sue me for eating?! No. You should sue the person that actually did that. Zamperla and Vekoma make near-identical motor bike coasters. Does that mean that GCI should sue the former CCI for making a coaster from... WOOD?! This is stupid, and I expect the judge to dismiss the case.
^^ I could have sworn that a while back they already made the claim it wasn't going to be a roller coaster....not sure where I read/saw it though. It could have been from an earlier article in the Sandusky paper.
"Thought" is the key word.....if there's no paper contract floating around...then there's basically no deal. And just becase CP executives flew out to Orlando to see one in action does not mean they are held liable to buy one. That would be like test driving a car and then the dealer saying you have to buy it now. There was another part of the article claiming that companies wanted a model made to accomodate specific wind speeds. Again, if CP went to Funtime asking about this and they couldn't deliver or didn't want to cater to their needs....then it's all the more reason to take their business elsewhere to someone who will satisfy the customers wants. That's economics 101 in a nutshell. I guess we'll know for sure come next week!
Um, David you do realize that CGI came about BECAUSE OF CCI and CCI is no longer in business
It was just an example. I knew for a fact that someone would correct me.. haha
^^ Wood and wood is completely different! That's like saying B&M and Intamin both do steel coasters, so they copy. I know that's not what you're trying to say, but wood isn't a good example.
