Does anyone have the 411 on what happened?
Will there be a 15'/'16 Magic Shitshow thread?
There will be, supposedly. Apparently it's back to last year's shitshow which means no/minimal upgrades from last year (although it seems that at least we'll have both chairs running this year). It would also seem a number of people got screwed in this, but I haven't heard directly from those involved so...regardless, teh suck.
Take a lap, almost everyone.
oh it always does.
WTF do I know but 2 chairs seems like something. 2 chairs for real?Quote:

Thanks for the update Dexter, I guess if operationally it just stayed the same a last year and had the same snowfall then all is ok. They better get moving on an unloading area for black, that looked like a long drop up top last time I was there.Quote:

What's left of my Save Magic shirt after a bike accident Thursday morning, thanks (for real!) to the EMT's getting down to business. Learned later that day in a Percocet haze the mystery deal is no more. Strange but true. Damn.
From what I saw today...
All but a few of the Red chairs have been re-hung. I didn't walk up to the Black chair but it appears all of those chairs have been hung. Good news. A couple of years ago, Red was (in Liftie Dave's own words) "completely fucking dismantled, man" into November.
A few of the people involved in the "deal" from both sides were present and ignored each other. The buying group hasn't completely given up but the posts on FB make it seem the current owners aren't interested in continuing the "deal".
On another note, Magic is back to posting nonsense on FB that would be canon fodder for a local John Stewart wannabe.
Killer day on the hill. Fuck all the negativity and butthurt, I'm just glad we came together to get the stoke train rolling again.
The run we made today is pure tits. Perfect spacing and awesome middle of the road sustained pitch that goes for days. Nice and wide too. Even multiple exits! I'm on cloud 9 just thinking about skiing it now. Big thanks to the Maggot dream team that showed up- Lynchy, GetAmped, KRP and kokomas with a few non-mags for good measure.
^^^ fun fun fun day! Well done gents!
No bueno about the bike accident, ts. I hope you made out better than the shirt and will be ready to ski come winter.Quote:

Yup, I get stitched together next week (clavicle needs more metal apparently) and should be good to go by ski season.Quote:

Went up today and did some upgrades to one of last year's best new lines with Kokomas and a few non-mags. It won't be called NoExit 2 any more.
Don't listen fussy. He wants all the Treehouse for himself.
I left TH out intentionally as not to call attention but as a fellow head, I know he will share...especially being that he is now a VT'er;).
He is The Source. No doubt.
...I've got some time to hear his story.
Everyone said he'd come to no good, you know he would....
