  1. ^He is big, and she does consider him sexy, but he is not the notorious Big Sexy! :lol:

    And StalkerChick, to someone who doesn't know your husband, they would probably jump to the conclusion that he was banned for something he did on here, which I know that's not the case.

    he don't put words in my mouth! :P but ok those that do know him knows why he's not allowed on here... but that doesn't answer my question if i can RSVP him or not... lol and i guess for those that dont know, he knows too much. I'll just go with that one lol

  2. Gator that's exactly what happened. Once Keith showed up everything kept going down. But the great KIC Racer evac was pretty epic, especially since another KICer had the key to let us out ;) but he went along with it and laughed harder than all of us. Thats just how he was. He was a great inspiration to all of us and you could tell he loved his family.

    If anyone else is interested, we've set up a collection on PayPal if anyone wants to donate for a flower arrangement/memorial for the family. If you're interested and have a PayPal account, feel free to send a donation to rcgiere@gmail.com and all proceeds will go towards a KIC arrangement with left overs going to the family.

  3. The Park opens On April 28th which is a Saturday!

    ORLY? Considering this whole thread is speculation ;) But man... I'm really hoping it's not the 28th... My wedding could get in the way of Opening Day in a bad way :P

  4. When does the contest end?

    It goes until August 17th :( We were in first up until this week, ahead by 110. Than *bam* this other couple blew it up. And supposedly they say they have the Kings Island vote... I need to let them know that that's not entirely true ;) lol

    And I really appreciate all the help you guys are giving me! (especially Avatar) I saw your family voted, it was awesome. But seriously, if you want to invite friends to the group or post it on your wall, I have no qualms against that. I really do appreciate all you guys are doing to help! :)

  5. Ok guys, I'm in need of a little Facebook help here. For those interested there is an event set up here:

  6. So the Blue Racer seemed really slow today... It took forever to get up the lift hill. Felt like I wasn't moving at all. And the way down was really really slow. and really bumpy.

    And my first ever evac off a ride :) with 16 other KICers :-P Keith broke yet another ride ;) lol

  7. I know Im blowing this forum up, but just a funny little side note. When KI Posted on their facebook this morning about the big announcement. I was the first poster mentioning something to the effect of what it is and How there ignoring the "Big Invisible wooden coaster" Over in Action Zone. Several people liked the comment and there was subsequent posting about that after I made mine. I just looked at that Post and , Ironically, All the SOB Posts are now Gone! Magic...

    No offense meant to you whatsoever... put they probably got rid of them 1. b/c the whole SOB thing is getting kind of old. it's demise will come in due time. 2. Its distracting from what they really want you to focus on and that's their ginormous grand dinos :P

    True, But you can only ignore something for so long before it rots, falls over, and Kills the poor people riding Flight Deck and Waiting in line for Drop Tower...

    one can only hope :lol: well minus the flight deck and DT thing... i like those :) I'm still all out about a giant wienie roast O:)

  9. If you hate the park so much, perhaps you should stop going.

    Both of you please knock it off.... the end.

    Re: Hand driers

    I, for one, miss my bacon.

    28192ty.jpg

    I too miss the bacon.

    I not only miss bacon, but you 2 as well! :)

    wow... ok the article that you were quoted in was a good article. but i read it twice and couldn't find anywhere it said don told them it was a walk-through, like some of the articles I have read had said. all he said is that it was Dinosaur relater and any idiot can see that. for the record, I don't care in the LEAST bit how many posts anyone has. BUT if you think im just some kid who stumbled upon this forum your defiantly wrong. I have spent several years working at Cedar Point, and I remain returning as a Screamster every year and am VERY active on Pointbuzz, I know what meida "heads up" your talking about... such as the press kits Cedar Point sent out about the Whyte Lighting bottling company before the announcement of Shoot The Rapids, but they had no clue what it was. all the PR is just to get people talking about the park.. and its obviously working.

    For the record not only have I read every post of this thread before posting I was the first to mention Dinosaurs Unearthed and post a link on this forum to it. I assure you I've been around myself a few times. I not some "noob" talking about Son of Beast or expecting a Coaster of any kind. I know that's not going to happen. so get off you high horse.

    oh naw he didn't....

    and pointbuzz has nothing to do with KIC... completely different. And since you know of "these park things" Then you should very well be open to differing opinions/insights/views and not so strong on the "my way or the highway" viewpoint is all I'm saying. From your posts you seem to not even take what anyone else is saying into perspective... at all... except to mock and ridicule it. Thats not what we do here

    "I assure you I've been around myself a few times."

    ^That is great to hear! I am around myself all the time :P

    I think reading the "StalkerChick" and "KevinL332" back and forth proves a very important point about going after posters personally.

    An opposing view doesn't warrant an insult. StalkerChick assumes KevinL332 doesn't know a swing ride from a whole in the ground because he doesn't have as many posts as she does, and attempts a failed "slam" on him as a "n00b".

    OOOPS! Even if she's right, there's no reason to make it an insult to be a new poster here.

    This has been a really fun KI fan site for me this past year and I have enjoyed many debates. Let's try to keep it fun for the "n00bs" so they'll stick around and turn into "old foagies" (By the way, how many posts do you need for that to be official?)

    A thread that had a legitimate call to action got locked as a result of personal attacks recently: http://www.KICentral.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=23419

    While I've disagreed with just about everything "Raptorguy" has said, I never made a personal attack against him. Now it turns out he and I are in complete agreement about KI's possible ERT decisions.

    I'm sure I'll go back to completely disagreeing with him in the near future, but the point is you never know who you'll find common ground with, and personal "slams" stop the process of figuring it out.

    I now return you to your regularly scheduled programming on "As KICentral Turns"

    On Topic:

    Wasn't there a pop song in the 80's called "Everyone walk the Dinosaur"?

    Do I know you? (LOL-pardon my 8 person inside joke) Did you read my post in its entirety?! There was nary an insult thrown out. not a single "slam", and honestly nothing really in particular minus maybe one sentence. Those that know me, know I'm one of the most open and accepting people around here (which often times gets me in trouble... right ashers? ;) ) I was simply pointing out the problems, that will get no sympathy from people around here. This used to be a great place where people could legitamately have a conversation as opposed to a spitting match and the "mines bigger than yours" mentality, but a few people come in here and troll and dont listen to things that people have to say, that if you take the time to look around, its pretty easy to spot who you should be listening too and taking what they say to heart. And a few sour grapes ruins the whole vat of wine... and i like my wine dangit! or something like that.

    And these noobs that I speak of are just that. They come and they hang around during the off season, or only show up when the park makes some sort of announcement (*cough*this week*cough) and they troll and spout drivvel and nonsense and generally tick people off, and then they magically disappear into the wilderness. Those that aren't noobs do stick around, and don't mind the title as that is exactly what they are. its pretty easy to spot... much like a giant spotlight iwth a neon arrow and a bullhorn screaming "look at me look at me!". So yes, I will mention the noobs, and i will call someone out on being one, which is the same as a parent yelling at their child to grow up or act their age. It lets them know "hey i'm being an idiot"

    now back to your scheduled programming with that blasted song stuck in my head... ugh! Did they say exactly where this was going to be announced at?

  10. Do you want me to post the picture I have of Don standing right outside my car talking to the guy from the enquirer with a recorder in his hand in front of the dinosaur?

    hi. I'm rachel *waves* the one in the article if anyone wants to question more credentials... :P

    Picture - actually yes, not because I doubt you, but think it would be a good picture!

    Also, beware of Stalker/Rachel - she gets cranky and hits hard :D

    not cool :P its on my phone... i'll upload it to fb and link here 2morrow... maybe... O:) (has ryan made me an angel smiley? severly lacking in the sarcastic angel smiley dept)

  11. Oh Rachey Rach! How I've missed those rants of yours! But seriously, you do bring up some valid points. And I do believe Jackson aka Beast1979 did try to give some advice earlier in this thread on how to behave because he's been there done that, but I don't think anybody listened to him! I think that's awesome that you got to be there for that, though! At least tomorrow at 2pm it will all be announced so random n00bs can stop chiming in 900 posts in saying COULD THIS BE SOB?!?!!111///////

    I for one think the park has done a GREAT job generating buzz, speculation, etc etc. And I really hope they keep it up when it comes to future announcements for anything! Hmm....could you imagine if they threw these types of hints out even if they were just building a new restroom...lol! Oh the teaser pics would be phenomenal!

    Is it April yet? ;)

    O.M.G.!!!! yes! yes a million times yes!!!! that would be epic!!! and even more so? you know we would be "those ppl" who are like, im going to use the new restrooms first!!!

    And after all those teasers for the new restroom, would the reaction be "Oh, poop!"?

    Terp, who just had to...uh...number two!

    darn you terpy!! *shakes fist semi angrily* thanks for the spit take....

    That would be good marketing money being thrown down the toilet!

    :)

    bahahaha not gonna lie i was about to yell at you for tweets not costing money... but i had a blond moment... carry on :P

    ok so i was just watching the news and on fox 19 they are doing a report about the press release tomorrow...man i cant wait until 2 tomorrow

    but but but... we can't believe the "meida" cuz they stretch the truth and dont actually talk to people at the park when anyone can see them to prove its "real" O:) (stalkerchick... adding fuel to the trol fire* booya!)

  12. I'm sorry I find it VERY VERY hard to believe Don or anyone from Kings Island would talk to the media about this other than saying the official announcement is coming March 18th. so I still stand by what I said unless you have proof of it coming from Don's mouth and I'm sure I'm not the only one! I can say I was there when Obama said were invading new found Aliens on Venus and I believe it to be about as true as your statement!

    as far as Ellen's Energy Adventure that looks like what i was talking about. Ellen had nothing to do with it at the time this would have been early mid 90's but looks like the same concept and so many things have been changed since than

    holy freakin crap batman! Do you want me to post the picture I have of Don standing right outside my car talking to the guy from the enquirer with a recorder in his hand in front of the dinosaur?! When you get a little older kid check into some pr/marketing/journalism classes. Any good PR person gives little breadcrumbs to create speculation. its called creating a "buzz", which personally, looking at this thread alone, they've done a darned good job of! I know you're new here and all so let me clue you into a few things. Se those little stats on the right over there <<< that shows the date joined, and the amount of posts and what not. normally (not all the time) the ones that have been around the block tend to know a thing or 2. not to mention I think I can safely say that half of the active posters/"old foagies" have worked for the park/amusement park industry at one point in time, and quite a few of those have learned how this crap works. Pull your head out of your butt and be willing to at least LISTEN to what other people have to say. That is how you will learn. That is how you will make friends. Throwing out stupid asinine comments that you think everyone should take as holier than thou truth, just makes you look stupid and people will never listen to what you have to say... ever.... (i'm apologizing for this ahead of time) but just as beast 1979. He used to just be "some kid" around here, until he took the time to listen to others and have a legit thought out debate with people. not just through their stuff out there, and make every one take it.

    Honestly the whole dino walk through thing has come about because EVERYONE listened to EVERYONE ELSE and people started taking bits and pieces of what EVERYONE was saying to come up with what WE ALL thought was the most natural outcome. no one has said "yess 100% this is what it will be" its all speculation....

    */end rant*

    He's gotta hear it from the Don himself, which will still be supplied by the media, because chances are most of us won't be at the official announcement.

    But then, if Don's on TV, how do we know that he's not computer animated, or an animatronic like the dinosaurs? :blink:

    LOL i <3 you

    Not sure if this exact article has been published yet. Yes, I've been reading this whole topic, but it is hard to keep straight which articles I found where. (If that made any sense at all)

    WCPO featuring KIC's own Stalkerchick http://www.wcpo.com/dpp/entertainment/new-kings-island-exhibit-to-feature-dinosaur

    wooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!! dam shoulda given them my forum name huh >.< hahaha i was looking for the video (which shows Don by his car after talking to said media when I was there) as it brought out a lot of the same points. It won't be ready for opening day, but will be ready in the spring.

    and this goes back to KevinL, the media most of the times does have a heads up from the park itself. Perfect example, when Urgent Scare was first introduced. a week before they had their media night to announce it, they sent a bag of "blood" along with the reporters "medical records" to the stations. Google it, I'm sure the videos are still out there. They knew before even the mods here knew! and guess what... more speculation, more buzz, more thinking and talking back and forth, and it was pretty much agreed that it was most likely some sort of doctor/hospital/medical theme. and tada... guess what it was....

    Oh and Kyle I did love that! And for the noobs who don't know... hi. I'm rachel *waves* the one in the article if anyone wants to question more credentials... :P

  13. I love how people think because they read it in the "meida" its fact lol. I think it will be some sort of Dinosaurs Unearthed Exhibit as I posted earlier, but defiantly not because it was posted in some online news article. Those are probably written by someone who just glanced through this threat another like it or facebook comments if they some how got leaked info they would now more details.

    Stop to think things through for yourself guys. Those articles could very easily be wrong and it COULD be something we are not expecting. I find it hard to believe its going to be like any other dino exibit out there. I'm expecting SOMETHING thats going to make this stand out and be unique.

    --- on a side note.... I cant remember the name of it. but the hope of a new dino show at action theater reminds me of something at Disney. You entered a movie theater with rows of bench seating to watch a movie about Dinos. A few minutes into this previously unseen guardrails covered the ends of the benches and you realized you were sitting in an automated ride vehicle that took you through an opening wall. you than experienced a safari like ride through a dino infested jungle and barley escape a T-rex attack Very cool water and light effects and totally unexpected for me. something like that would have been great!

    1. if your talking about my post, i was there as Don was talking to the media... hence why I was on said broadcast. kthanx.

    2. its coming this year, said from the park, therefore, 99% sure not really gonna be a ride...

    3. side note, you're talking about Dinosaur the ride. where you sit in a jeep 4 ppl wide, which is a separate track and car, more along the lines of the haunted castle than action theater...

    dinosaur.jpg

    So please don't get all up in here being all "preachy" about the same "non-facts" your complaining about. kthanx.

    side note i need to quit these rants hahaha

  14. if this is a hint for the future of the park for a ride or something, more hints are needed. Plus we could also be looking at it all wrong and KI just be puting up a pic just to keep the attention of its fans during the off season

    I'm gonna go with that one... people just being stupid and having fun.

    But B&M invert would be beyond amazing! :)

  15. Oh, yes...some of us even know what incident where directly led to that installation...

    On another note, even though I am a strong advocate of safety, there is something to be said for the viewpoint expressed (in a very brilliant and comical way) here:

    http://www.mywvhome.com/oldies/scared.html

    O.M.G.!!!! i LOVE THIS!!!!! its so true tho..... I may be a "youngin" but heck i remember that stuff. if u were playing at the neighbor kids house and acted up, their parents could discipline you and i dont know how many times i got spanked, and i learned.. at least until after the sting wore off :P and u came home when the street lights came on. we didn't have phones when we were 10. I didnt get a cell phone til halfway through college. and yes i remember the "bricks" and briefcase phones lol. thanks terpy for making ME feel old :P oh and dont forget the lead based paint cribs :P
