It seems if they were "building on top of what little was left from round one", that means they were basically starting over so it doesn't have to take 150 hours to get a skiable surface, but rather only ~72, evidenced by their results from round 1, correct?

Right. I never said it takes 150 hours of snowmaking to get the loaf open. I said that, at best, it takes 60 hours to cover something off the superquad really sparsely. It was when people started saying it only takes 30 hours of snowmaking to open the loaf that I pointed out that last year it took them about 150, and that my number is conservative, optomistic and when hitches get thrown into the plan (as they almost always do) it takes many, many more hours.

What no "1500 post" thread .. your slipping son. Your daily rate is way down too.

Oh Snap I didn't even notice...I guess I'll write a rap..right here in this thread but it needs to somehow pertain to October and Snowmaking..

No four leaf clover
Not lucky enough to ski in October
I'm not faking too warm for snowmaking
Even still my raps mad crispy like bacon
and some toast or a grilled steeze sandwich
copped me some ground beef and a can of manwich
eating sloppy Joes with my Steezy Hoes
wearing bikinis you call me GSS they call me Panini
drinking martinis with a twist of lime
edges sharp I can turn on a dime or nickle
the weather can be fickle but winter will come
even though I live in Pennsyltucky I'm still a skibum..Holla

Again, you're full of BS and terrible at communicating. It took them less than 48 hours to open tote road....I highyl doubt they had anything of substance left from previous snowmaking.

That's a horrible rap. Ever hear of 16's and 32's?

Now here's a lil' story bout a skank called steezy, who tryed to write a rap online,
His rhymes were limp, some call im' gump, I call im' gimp,
and lisnin' to his stuff should be a crime

The boy thinks he's good, but come time to swing wood, they call im' little man,
He says he's slick, I think he's a dick,
But I jus' really don't give a god damn

Alpinezone is his home, but sometimes he romes, right onto match dot com,
1 big stud is the screen name, but come time to show real game,
The chick he takes home is his mom

I hear he has flaws, he clutches to straws, and I know he's color blind,
My label is Konvict, his label is reject,
N' one might just say he got slimed

I'm down..and SnowMan stick to pretending to know about the ski industry and away from rap..because you're rap was horrible..OldSnowboardMaine has better rhymes than you..but here goes I need to write a comeback..

Listening to Slow Jams
Arguing with Snowman
AKA Frosty
Thinks he's the boss B
Like Tony Danza
rap isn't all about stanzas
if you rapped for food you'd be endangered like a Panda
eating Bamboo..I've got cargo pants you rock a Tu-Tu
you think you can rap cause you wrote a Hykoo
Pity the fool like Mr. T
You're mad Sonny Bono crashing into Trees
When he walks into a bar all the ladies flee
He wears pink when he goes to drink
While I flow faster than the kitchen sink or Niagara Falls
GSS has big balls not to tall and not to short..sometimes a flirt
saying how you doing..don't want to ruin this thread
excellent adventure like Bill and Ted
or Right Said Fred singing I'm too Sexy
Snowmans only action was a trick hoe saying Text me..Holla

Your answer back was to go to your one liner book and send every throwback line at me you've come up with in the last 5 years without even bothering to try and mould it together to make any sense? I'm not even claiming to be a rapper, but atleast I stayed on topic and moulded my rhymes around every stupid bull $hit thing you've said about me today in a witty manner.

Really a rap battle? Ok, I've got a Guiness and the game is on. This will be good.

YOU HAVE GOTTA BE KIDDING ME


Pop goes the arrogance again with Snowman. Just like his opinin on everything to do with skiing, he of course has the better rap. IS THERE ANYTHING IN THE WORLD YOU DON'T KNOW MORE ABOUT THAN EVERYONE? ANYTHING THAT YOU ARE NOT BETTER AT? I said, I'd stop responding, but I'm dumb founded, by the dumb newfoundlander.

Steeze owned you with that rap - PERIOD. You sounded like some, no class, no rythm, no style, no clue, white guy from Canada in your rap

Oh, wait a minute.........

I've discovered the best solution is simply pretend they (star, steeze et al) don't exist. They've already admitted they've never even laid their hands on a snow gun and acknowledging them only gets you a spamfest of posts full of crap. Last year it actually took about a month of snowmaking (if you're going by Calander days and not hours online) to get open. Actual snowmaking hours online prior to opening last year were probably in the neighborhood of 150.

snowman, i thought you were going to pretend that GSS didn't exist. not busting on you. but he sucked you right in. holla.

I thought I better give in and atleast reply to him atleast once since how he's been trying to get a response for 2 days and 40 posts. Didn't want him to feel all alone in the world and go kill himself or anything....
