Vortex1987 started following Is this the giant top spin? and Starbucks now requires a purchase
-
Starbucks to add 'panic buttons' in stores to boot loiterers, lingering customers Well, this is crap. If someone wants to go in and get a small cup of coffee and relax for an hour, or happens to have an emergency and the only nearby bathroom is Starbucks, then they can't go in? I know I'm never shopping there again.

Six Flags and Cedar Fair Merge
Vortex1987 replied to IndyGuy4KI's topic in Kings Island Central Newsroom
If those get a single ad on them... I'm revoking my season pass permanently. -
ClebyHerris on X: "Breaking Coaster news! Kingda Ka demo has begun. The turnaround has begun to be removed Cyborg has an excavator near it meaning bad things usually. Green Lantern demo is going great aswell https://t.co/wyS3d3w1G7" / X Demo has begun. Dam you Cedar Fair. There is absolutely nothing that can convince me there wasn't malice involved in this decision., combined with the insane maintenance costs and operating costs. What better way to start off Cedar Points 2025 season than marketing TT2 as the tallest and fastest coaster in the US? And apparently reddit users are saying the same thing: This merger, with Cedar Fair executives running the show, is going to be the beginning of the downfall of Great Adventure IMO. No park in the US is going to be allowed to surpass Cedar Point. Hide and watch.

I hope that isn't real........... I can't stand the way Six Flags plasters ad's all over their rides. It looks so tacky. -
Kings Island to add “family thrill” attraction in 2026
Vortex1987 replied to BoddaH1994's topic in Kings Island
A family ride in The Vortex plot would be a huge slap in the face to everyone. Its not fitting for that plot. Stick a madhouse or a family coaster in the Crypt building before touching that Vortex plot. Please KI, dont replace something so legendary with something so ordinary. -

Please don't be a family ride in The Vortex plot............ I'd even rather have it in the Crypt building. (Yes, coming from me, of all people, possibly the most diehard Crypt/TRTR fan ever) I'd rather even have a madhouse in the crypt building dedicated to families than a family coaster in The Vortex plot. I'll even admit it, if done correctly a madhouse would be actually good if they'd utilize the theming thats already in the queue! Just please, that Vortex plot needs something incredible. It has housed the first ever suspended coaster and the original arrow mega looper. A family ride in there wouldn't be a fitting replacement. But the Crypt building.................... stick a madhouse in it. (Then give me the triangle of light door, the volcano from TR:TR, and the goddess Shiva so I can have TR:TR memorabilia) If the building gets touched though, I want a piece off the triangle of light door or a piece of Shiva or the volcano. I'm insane enough to buy it. LOL. (I hope you all know I'm not kidding) That Vortex plot better not get the family ride.............. It needs something seriously incredible. -
Isnt it beautiful? I can't thank you enough @Captain Nemo for helping me out. tombraiderbrahmaroom11.mp4 Im in the midst of adding in the technical details ATM using tons of photos and the hundreds (ok, maybe a thousand , it was so beautiful) photos I took of the buildings interior when I went back in October. Im cranking it up to 11. Also redoing the lighting sequence on the ride to be accurate to the real thing. trtr comparison1.mp4

Now I might try it in Planet Coaster. Lol. Take the TRTR recreation, make a second copy, and convert it into what it could be tomorrow if they would utilize the building for a normal top spin. Thanks for the idea. Lol. I'd throw a party if that were to happen in real life. It would be like TRTR but... different? You know what I mean. Lol.
-
I'd sell my soul, and my kidneys for that to happen. Lol.

I know i'm bumping my own thread, but anyone interested? Rollercoaster Wheels | eBay

Thats what I thought. I did ride it in 08 and to this day nothing has ever actually scared me. Except that.
-
That looks like it indoors. I can see the metalwork on the building in the video. Also this has the A frame like The Crypt and not a normal top spin. But I'm still not 100% sure if this is it or not.
-
Somebody posted this "guess the ride" and I'm curious. I found this a while ago while doing one of VectorCoasters guess the coasters. I've been trying to find an awnser to this one for a while but I've had no luck, and I'm stumped. Is this the giant top spin? It doesn't look like a match to any of the ride cycles the ride had, or am I wrong? It looks like a top spin and if I'm correct Crypt was the only one that was indoors and had the a frame, but this has two rows, not three. What ride is this actually? Does anyone here know?

Tower Topics Buy or Sell Episode Questions Needed
Vortex1987 replied to DonHelbig's topic in Kings Island
LOL. With how bad Cedar Fair treats all the parks except Cedar Point this wouldnt suprise me. Lol. -
Oh @Captain Nemo ......... I am taking the recreation and adding in the missing technical bits. (As many as I can within PlanCo's limitations) And I'm going to need your help. (Again. Lol) If I'm correct, aren't there fire alarms in these locations? Where at? I'm pretty sure there is one by the Triangle Of Light door, but the rest I'm unsure. I'm fixing to take this to the next level. I want it as close as physically possible because this is the only way I can ever visit TR:TR.
