Schif Posted October 21, 2020 Report Posted October 21, 2020 I think they are mostly saying that if you like the look of cord you better be there between 8 and 8:80am 2 1 Quote
toast21602 Posted October 21, 2020 Report Posted October 21, 2020 If you look at the sun angle on the cord it looks like there is an obstruction caused by some machinery near the TP4 statue. I don't want to read into it too much, but it looks like they are removing the statue from its current location to place it at the top of the newly named TP4 trail that has been in the works for the last decade. Not trying to stir the pot, but I think that is the hidden message. 4 1 Quote
Benm Posted October 21, 2020 Report Posted October 21, 2020 Just flat out ask them in the comments. I don't think they meant anything by it tho. Quote

It was initially placed at its original location above Honey Bee Bowl, however the Pope has been pretty upset by the lack of progress on Coming Soon and thus asked Barb to have it moved above Coming Soon 1 Quote

I don't think it was. Their Facebook post said, "Many of you prefer visiting the mountain in the morning...". According to Merriam-Webster dictionary, many (\ ˈme-nē \) is defined as "consisting of or amounting to a large but indefinite number". Say 100,000 people ski at Blue Mountain, and 60% prefer to visit the mountain in the morning. That equates to 60,000 people, or are large number of people; "many". At the same time, 40,000 people prefer to ski at night. That's also "many". Therefore, it's also correct to state, "Many of you prefer visiting the mountain in the evening...".

Justo8484 Posted October 22, 2020 Report Posted October 22, 2020 no one who can ski during the day prefers to ski at night. let's all just stop kidding ourselves 1 1 Quote

So it's either night skiing or nothing at all. Plus, I've always had an insane amount of fun skiing the last hour before close when the trails and lift lines are completely empty. Quote

Just because you determine both scenarios to be "many" doesn't mean that they were wrong with their statement. Skiing at night sucks anyway. 1 Quote

This scenario is called majority/minority. Your definition of many would not not apply here as it’s not an indefinite number, it’s either 60k or 40k. Quote

I dont see any hidden message there because many people enjoy night skiing also Quote
RidgeRacer Posted October 22, 2020 Report Posted October 22, 2020 Blue said many people enjoy morning skiing. I dont see any hidden message there because many people enjoy night skiing also I think the hidden message is less night skiing = less RTMs on the hill = more win. 1 1 1 Quote
