PKI Homey Posted July 28, 2004 Share Posted July 28, 2004 The screamscape ultimate awards are in. Scooby Doo and the Haunted Castle took the award for Ultimate Dark Ride Attraction. They also came close in several other categories including Best Wooden Coaster. Here's a link to the results...Screamscape Ultimate Awards Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tanner Posted July 28, 2004 Share Posted July 28, 2004 I think it's interesting that TR:TR won two first place awards on there last year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fryler87 Posted July 29, 2004 Share Posted July 29, 2004 I'm proud that King's Island did quite well overall. Scooby Doo racked up a few points if I may say so. It's more than satisfying to see our home park as one of the top ten parks (in the world?) along with Disney parks, Cedar Fair's flagship park and Six Flags' flagship park. Go PKI!!! By the way...I loved how The Bat and King Cobra were on the list for "Rides we wish were brought back" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StXBomber Posted July 29, 2004 Share Posted July 29, 2004 PKD's Drop Zone isn't even a gyro drop. Wow, ScreamScape really does have "one of the most accurate surveys on the internet!" EDIT: Also, King Cobra is now known as King Combra. Wow, they really don't know amusement parks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EDIT: Also, King Cobra is now known as King Combra. Wow, they really don't know amusement parks! For one PKD's Drop Zone is a gyro drop. Secondly everyone makes typos, big deal.

StXBomber Posted July 29, 2004 Share Posted July 29, 2004 I thought it doesn't spin, which means it isn't a gyro. Can anyone confirm this? Does it spin? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tanner Posted July 29, 2004 Share Posted July 29, 2004 Everywhere I've seen, rankings, fan pages; all classify and say it is a gyro drop. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tanner Posted July 29, 2004 Share Posted July 29, 2004 Ok to tell you the truth I'm confused. PKD's site says "Intamin Giant Drop." All the other Giant Drop's however have the seperate car seating. I guess PKD wanted the capacity of PKI's without the problems. So I'd say this is where the next generation of "Giant Drop" comes in. That's the only thing that makes sense to me, as originally it was supposed to rotate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
