I guess we'll know for sure in about two hours. So they really are keeping us on our toes this year, aren’t they? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm rarely given specific dates, but I was given a date for the next one. It wasn't today. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MGregorio594 Posted May 3, 2018 Share Posted May 3, 2018 Would they really announce another house already, though? They only announced Dead Exposure last week, feel like it's kind of soon for something else. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since they're already breaking norms with last week's announcement (an original, by itself, this early in the season), nothing is off the table. I'd like to present the following for argument's sake: Let's assume that we will have (at minimum) 9 houses, 2 shows, and 5 zones. Sixteen total "items" they could potentially announce. We've already heard of two (Stranger Things, and Dead Exposure). That would leave us with 14 more items to announce. If they announce one item separately, weekly, they could continue that through August 2nd without a gap. While 8/2 is a little early to have a "full reveal", it's not that far off. If you factor in a week where they skip (maybe not the week of July 4th for instance), and an item or two that we might not be aware of yet; that would put us right around the mid-August mark that we're used to. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or, what I think is more likely (and I don't know, just spit-balling), we have at list 7 more houses to go. If they announce two houses a month (May/June/July), that allows an announcement roughly every two weeks, with the ninth house falling in August. That leaves the full reveal of zones, shows, whatever to be the second August reveal. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheRobcat Posted May 3, 2018 Share Posted May 3, 2018 Not sure about today, but Hollywood is a little behind and I think the next announcement was supposed to be a shared property, so if it was today it's likely for Hollywood to play catch up. I'd guess next week, though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Multi day tickets typically get released mid-June. So, probably a week or two after the BOGO offer expires. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least your poetry is better than Ifrit's. My interpretation: A zone that was also a house a la "Dead Water" last year. But, probably not ANOTHER voodoo/bayou house. Edit: If it's the one I've heard rumblings about, maybe "giving it a house" is a bit of a misdirection?

Should I reproduce my poem regarding poetry that I used to explain the importance of our mutual friend's couplets in 2011? And... It had a home Just not its own. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
