Hershey Teasing 2008 Attraction

Maybe so. To be honest, I didn't pay much attention to it because I didn't believe it was legit. I'll keep on top if it through this site and enjoy the speculation.
Hey All...that logo on the main page of Nantimi.com is back...the e-mail address is hyper@nantimi.com - and if you hover over the icon, it says "s & o are the key"...perhaps a confirmation of the "silver and orange" thing?

Plus, what does it mean with the Van Gogh quote about painting (if you hover over it on the Portfolio page)? What does that have to do with the coaster/theme?


Haha no I'm not giving Patrick the finger

Hershey could literally have one person doing this campaign. So, it's not like it's expensive for them. Plus, if you get the enthusiasts excited, they're going to tell their non-enthusiast friends and get them all psyched. I know I get my friends to attend parks WAY more than park advertising does.

I still don't understand why Hershey would go to the trouble of baiting some coaster enthusiasts

The time and money dedicated to this is much, much less then other efforts a park could take to reach enthusiasts.

Look at the blog on CP's site. Look at all the construction news and photos whenever CP builds a new ride. Look at how much Paula from HW posts on here and the HoliBlog.

Look at how much time, effort, and money it takes to run one single event for maybe 100 coaster enthusiasts.

I think if they can bother to essentially hold a private party for a small hanful of coaster nerds that will have very little if any effect on the GP a fun little ARG probably run by one guy isn't that big a deal at all.

Look when ever you find out new info they push up the release date, maybe if you find out more they'll make it tomorrow. ;)

Just tossing this out, maybe it's not worth a thing. Could you try to "paint" that image (using silver and orange) to reveal something? I'm not at all an image person so I don't know if it's possible, but it seems like a way to connect the "s&o are the key" comment and the "by all means paint" quote. Any Paint shoppers out there?

Has anyone figured out what the client login is yet? I'm sure in some of the clues they've given, there have been username and password information. I'm also curious as to what the pinkish icons are on the main page and the significance (if any) of the airport graphic.
About the announcement date change, what if 10.02.07 wasn't a date like halltd mentioned? You'd think that if it was, they'd be saying 9.27.07 now, wouldn't they? Especially with the fact that that it can't internationally be confused with another date as Mamoosh suggested. And in this new teaser, if you really think about it, they say nothing about changing the announcement date. They said "and some people think we have cold feet...". Some people can think they have cold feet, like how we thought 10.02.07 was a date, but does that make either idea correct?
I missed the past 8 pages of converstation, so forgive me if I'm repeating this, but has anyone been paying attention to the quotes on each page of the Nantimi website?

Also, on the Portfolio page:

When I saved the letter, the file name was "scanLumber". Lumber...Wood? *** Edited 9/14/2007 7:48:58 PM UTC by Lee Grant***

^ Lee, if you go to http://www.nantimi.com/truthRevealed.html

and you'll see that we pretty much aren't dealing with wood.

But in another question...that Claude and Walter quote...could it be a mis-lead that perhaps this isn't an Intamin after all, but a B&M? Just an idea...


Haha no I'm not giving Patrick the finger

We have the aerial view of the area with the ride being removed and a partial blueprint of what just might be the actual ride.

So why hasn't somebody put 1 and 1 together and given us a proposed layout/location/placement graphic? :)


Okay, I get it. It's the long-awaited X-Files: The Ride. Or am I the only one that's been waiting for that one?

Well, "things aren't what they seem". Remember? IDK. I just thought it was wierd that they'd name that picture file scanLumber.

Also, hover over the letter and you get this:

them.travelled/ThRu

Them Travelled Through?

I need a ride theme and that username to Nantimi. It seems like there much more to this ride then just what it looks like. IDK. I'm probably over thinking it, but I enjoy mysteries. *** Edited 9/14/2007 8:16:09 PM UTC by Lee Grant***


Roller Coasters...my first true love.
^ Ok so who is "them", who travelled through fire, and has there ever been a wooden cobra roll?

Haha no I'm not giving Patrick the finger

Are you serious? Couldn't even keep a wooden loop up for 10 years, doubt they'd try a cobra roll.

What does traveling through fire have to do with it? Think there's any significance to the fact that "travelled" is misspelled?

I love playing detective :)

I guess since I didn't see it anywhere in here, that no one has had any great ideas or progress on the client login? I've tried a bunch of things from the names of the folks on the site to variations on Hersheypark and Hypershaker to things to do with Da Vinci (including the Da Vinci Code's So Dark the Con of Man!) with no luck. So, now that I've wasted the 15 minutes I intended to waste, I'll turn it over to those with more time to waste than me :)

Edit: I just googled nantimi and the first hit comes up with this text that's nowhere else on the site, maybe there's a clue here:
"Industry veteran Denis Tekler will join Nantimi effective immediately. Denis comes to us from the Pittsburgh based media firm of Wallace, Roberts"

We've already had a couple anagrams in this, maybe these are more anagrams. I suck at anagrams, so don't look to me for any answers.

Did anyone try to see what the phone number on the end of this is for http://www.nantimi.com/iiiiiiiiiii.html that number in the lower right corner might be something. Someone call it.

Call it? I can't read it!

You call it.

them.travelled/thRu was shown to be an anagram for /truthRevealed.html (when added to http://www.nantimi.com) which gives the flashing pics noted before.

Brett, that announcement was on the "home" page until they replaced it with the item about the web guy. BTW, who the hell names their kid "Donan?" Just can't help but think there's more anagrams or clues buried somewhere in these names or other "companies."

It looks like that number in the fax is deliberately blurred. I searched WhitePages.com for 867-4833. It's not assigned. 867 is the Annville exchange though. Weird thing I noticed on that fax-- the date which is partially clipped off at the top looks like 1990-something. Of course, you can set a fax machine to any date or time.

When you get the e-mail response from the HERCO employee who resigned, it says she's out until 07/31/2010. Which happens to have the digits 10 02 and 07 in it.
