As expected, the video quality from Chopper 9 looks like it is from the 80s....and they said Vortex has given 275 million rides....and we know the media is always right....
Yes. According to the media, we will board Orion from the maintenance/storage shed, and they will put all three trains in the station at night. Wonderful!

Depends. Have you messaged him recently? :-P

No offense, but 'opportunity' for what? The GP doesn't care until the thing is operational, and after the lukewarm excitement from enthusiasts and GP alike at the announcement of a mega-project, the last thing I'd care about is providing footage of every minute of construction.
The GP comments on alot of social media says alot though.

Thank you mods! Now we can actually see construction. Anyone driving by the park today?
I'm sure several hundred thousand people are on I-71. We should ask one of them for a picture of #KIOrion.

420 steps.
New record: Kings Island, home to the most steps EVER to get to the top of a Giga Lift Hill in THE WORLD!

Well, there is 4 pages less here. 287 may be hard to reach before the lift is done.

@silver2005No, but every little thing adds up. And something minor to you may be major to someone else. Again, trust is a big thing these days.

What do average customers have to benefit from that information?
I mean, if I dont communicate correctly and truthfully to my customers, they wont be my customers for very long, and may not trust what is said in the future. And trust is a very hard thing to earn back.

Only enthusiasts are watching the cams and keeping up with this stuff to even have a single iota of what is going on.
That explains why the GP is commenting about the camera's being down...

You are helping stir it as well by commenting.

Obstruction Lights.
@LovinMeSomeBanshee I am a fly-around poster... not a fly-by. Although, we have flown by once....

There have been several post since the cameras have gone down that have shown construction progress and there will continue to be photos of construction with or without the camera. There’s no need to keep beating this dead horse & flooding this thread complaining & debating about the camera.
Hey. We need to get this thread above 287 pages before the lift hill is topped off...

The park doesn't owe you an explanation of what they do. Why are enthusiast so entitled and think that they are the only ones who visit the park? Maybe they want to have it topped as a surprise this weekend? Either way stop acting like you guys know what's best for the park. They have got it covered. The coaster is gonna be there one way or another, so is it worth it to complain and make the reputation of this site worse? Be patient. Go outside, and better yet if you need a fix that bad sit outside the park.
You sure act like you know what is best for the park.
Btw, just think... the GP also watch the cams. Us "enthusiasts" dont have our own private cameras. If we did, your post would be applicable.
On edit: Look at the amount of GP comments on their social media channels about the cams being down. That's not really a good impression.

Perhaps the contractor or the builder hated it when they did Fury. I HATE when people are staring across my back when I work. Then you add in they are questioning why this why that. Hey Bob Ross....why ya putting that white in the cloud instead of that white? It takes you out of your zone a little. I don't really think that is why, but its certainly possible.
Doubt it. Skyhigh coasters actually put out a picture of the base of the lift hill (below) then removed it after it was shared. . I asked them if they wanted it removed or if KI wanted it removed. No answer. Seems like KI doesnt want good pics out of Orion unless THEY do it.

The park shut it down for 1 of these 3 reasons.
Source?

It's some users only way to enjoy/view the construction.

Exactly. We are allowed to politely voice our annoyances. Get over it.

Well...when I looked at the Weatherbug camera early this morning I saw all kinds of power going to it. Weird huh?
And it wouldnt explain last year. Cams were always on. And software updates wouldnt take this long, unless they are on a system from the 1800's. Cant KI just be honest with us? Something still smells funny...

I am pretty sure the Department of Agriculture would frown upon that along with the park. I think riding Blue Racer with your phones/cams stowed away is going to be your best bet Saturday.
Welcome to KIC!
I could hang a GoPro really really low from the plane... Nothing illegal about that.

@flightoffear1996 They will keep the webcams off until its topped off.

Above the top deck. @Kodistict
Excuse the zoomed in bit, but I circled the DB one. The Banshee/Orion cam is on the other side, exact same place.

I've heard the cams are down do to PETA protests about them endangering the flies' habitat. Hopefully this isnt true. If it is, shame on you KI!

Actually, I believe that what you are seeing is the break run in the foreground.
Oh, I was looking at something on the larger image. My bad.

@Nova That's just the next piece that is being lifted.
Also, welcome to KIC.

I’m not sure how Wildgravitytravels got this pic but it looks like we have drop backbone and second lift hill support and track in place.
We have a good camera.

This is dipping towards the ToS, (Im not taking sides) but the media also said Hillary Clinton would be our next President...
