I'm pretty sure the DCR painting got postponed last year because Superman shit the bed and they wanted DCR back online to fill the hole. So the locker upgrades got put on hold. This doesn't mean they've abandoned the idea... (although it doesn't mean they haven't either - if the money allocated for it in last year's budget got spent elsewhere, and they didn't allocate funds for this year, then it's stalled indefinitely.

I mean it’s a fun exercise if you were looking for something to do - but 99% of your figures are straight guess work. any estimation of revenue from gate sales requires at least some knowledge of what the sales mix of attendees are (ie day pass, annual pass, some other holiday pass). On an off peak Tuesday you may find 80% of your visitors are annual pass holders, so there is no direct gate income in that day from a large portion of your crowd. then the avg duration of stay for annual pass holders - something not able to be tracked, as that then impacts revenue per head on F&B (annual pass holders more like to leave before lunch, or arrive after) and merch (annual pass holders less likely to buy on any given day). There is a myriad financial lines to consider; of which you have only handled a few. but as I said, if it was just an activity in fun, then it’s accuracy is of little consequence

Wire ropes get replaced on superman as preventative maintenance. Same as on batwing. You can't see the internal structure as it's actually made up of multiple spiral strands of wire wrapping inner cores, themselves spiral wrapped forming an even larger inner core surrounded by outer spiral winds. Think of it more like multiple wire ropes surrounding multiple inner ropes spiral wrapped around to form the outer. Most of the reasonable cost testing machines run the length of the rope checking for variations in thickness with very fine tolerances or use very powerful magnets checking for deviations which indicate some sort of deformity (usually broken strands). The absolutely unreasonable machines basically xray the rope. Alternatively, as preventative maintenance you can inspect it and replace it well before the next test date is required or the service life is reached. These are the end stops holding the rope packed tightly. They are sandwiched between wear blocks and bolted into position to anchor them to things like the catch car.

Something to do with Village Key?

I’d assume it will be a new arena stunt show (at least that’s what I hope it is because HSD2 sucks)
