  1. Not sure if the concept has been discussed prior to this, but what do you guys think about the eccentric idea of using TRTR's building as a station for whatever may come to inhabit the old Vortex plot? I know it seems bizarre, but it would really kill two birds with one stone while not interfering too much with The Beast. What do you all think?
  2. I'll do it for free if they let me and my partner live in the SoB station.
  3. Intentions are often very difficult to put together, particularly when a company with various financial directives is involved. Situations such as this are not always a personal vendetta, although they can be.
  4. Perhaps the return of Phantom Theater is to be something of greater magnitude?
  5. What happened to Flight Commander when it was removed?
  6. This is truly disheartening to hear. I sincerely hope his legacy will continue to pave the way to a brighter future for the park, although I cannot help but be cynical.
  7. I can tell you that the forces a roller coaster will put upon your body can drastically affect the way fluids flow inside of your body and that people with cardiac and brain conditions can and have died on roller coasters hundreds of times before. If you have a shunt, you really need to speak with your doctor about any sort of activities that could put your health at risk. When it comes to the brain you generally don't have long to have catastrophic anomalies repaired before they cause irreparable damage.
  8. I know people are quick to anticipate disappointment, but the park is really ramping up the Outpost 5 stuff a lot. I can not help but feel serious anticipation for something big.
  9. Would be interesting to see them franchise some of their IPs out to entrepreneurs, but I could never see that happening with Disney.
  10. I think perhaps we should all just wait and see how the 24-seater performs alongside the other rides. Maybe there are reasons that they are not expecting the need for a higher throughput. I'm willing to take a leap of faith on Cedar Fair's judgement here, particularly during a period of prolonged economic slump the globe seems to be in. I feel like things may make more sense this time next year.
  11. I agree with this. The park needs no further tree removal anywhere. I'd be right happy to have some tulip poplars planted in Adventure Port. I feel like they fit the essence of the section well.
  12. Might sound a bit hair-brained, but it may be fruitful for you to reach out to a Paramount or Nickelodeon fan forum. It's not unthinkable that the stampers used at Kings Island were also used at other locations that used Nick IPs.
  13. One thing I always wondered about with these machines is what they would do if you used a steel penny.
  14. Here's my friend when we visited back in 2021.
  15. For the sake of being a contrarian, I will elect to die on my hill. The Bat will continue to soar. Please, God...
  16. Everyone seems determined that The Bat is going to be demolished soon. Frankly, I don't see it. I personally see The Vortex plot as far better real estate for the park in regards to a new coaster being built. If we are going by the "service life" mumbo jumbo, I don't feel you can really compare The Bat to Vortex just because they are both Arrow coasters. Vortex was far rougher than The Bat currently is and didn't really fill much of a niche for your average person. This being said, I don't feel like it is impossible that they decide to remove it within a five year time frame. I just feel there are far more likely candidates such as Congo Falls or Invertigo, the latter of which has a horrendous throughput. I personally expect to see close to another ten years out of The Bat, but we shall see.
  17. I've been actively trying to forget that exists for over twenty years now.
