This is what I am expecting. I just really hope that I'm wrong. image found here: http://www.waveshoppe.com/mens-hawaiian.htm

To be honest I have no idea what the wall's purpose was. I was thinking it would have acted as a support for the exit stairs, or maybe it was just for added detail. I guess now we'll never know....

^ I think this picture will answer your question: photo taken from Greg Scheid's Twitter page: https://twitter.com/KIGMGREG -Note that renderings released back in August of last year were not finalized (The Bat was still under its Flight Deck color scheme), so they might not even build it at all.

I can now confirm that The Bat is indeed testing! The Bat webcam can be found here: https://www.visitkingsisland.com/online-fun/webcams

My DC trip is coming up at the end of April. This is an event that I've been waiting for for years and I am really excited to visit our nation's capital. Hope you're enjoying yourself.

Textured lighting for one. But Banshee Screams, fog effects.... who knows?

I wonder if they have The Bat's ID sign up yet.

Maybe they're performing a secret ritual... And the mysteries continue.

To be honest, I wouldn't really mind having a seat belt on Diamondback. It wouldn't really take away from the ride experience other than the slight downgrade in freedom, which for a B&M Hyper, is hard to do.

When you start planning your next visit down to the minutes.

Rides like Flight of the Demons, Medusa, and even Helix are reasonable competitors for Banshee. Goliath is simply the biggest competitor because it, along with Banshee, breaks world records. I do however think Banshee will almost definitely win best new ride this year.

From what it looks like, the sign says "enter here".

The rain gives Banshee a mystical effect this morning. The Banshee webcam can be found here: https://www.visitkingsisland.com/online-fun/webcams

Thank you for the information. I will be sure not to post any further details.

Quick question concerning Media Day: Will I be able to check in later? I will most likely not be able to make it until roughly 8:00.

Just wanted to point this out. image taken from here:https://twitter.com/KIGMGREG/status/450737693803028480/photo/1/large edit: also notice the TVs that they have set up.

I believe Flight of Fear was the first coaster to use utilize a LIM launching system.

I wouldn't know how to find a 2009 map on the forums, but I would suggest checking out Ebay if you hadn't already. Welcome to KIC!

Something new has shown up on Google Maps, "Maps" being the key word there. It's about time Google responded to my report.

The new lighting set up is turning out great! Also is that a green light emitting from Stunt Crew Grill/ Chicken Shack? The Banshee Webcam can be found here: https://www.visitkingsisland.com/online-fun/webcams

How about something more unique, like Mystique, or Mystic? It goes with the color scheme.

I can see people walking in the queue line. ~coasterama, who has enough free time to check the forum at school.

I wouldn't be surprised if some people thought Busch Gardens down in Tampa is owned by Disney.

...And queue the snow. EDIT: Just a quick dusting.
