Is Intamin coming back to Cedar Fair?
Well it looks like it will be Intiman as the renewed coaster manufacturer. Unless Jason McClure from CP is pulling our leg. This is a picture of a tweet he sent out a few hours ago.

My MT video never showed up on my funpix account on the website. Are they having issues with it does anyone know?

I'm with you 100% They could knock down that stadium thing by WindSeeker and relocate the tilt-a-whirl. That's a pretty wide midway back there. And if Wicked Twister is relocated, you now have room for a decent sized wood coaster on the beach. It's definitely possible.

Well that stinks, I only had my MT picture added last night. It never added a video to my funpix. Or, do I need to login into the actual website? I always just use my KI app.

The Vortex Poll
If Vortex were to be replaced what do you guys think could replace it? I think it could depend on who Cedar Fairs renewed partnership is with. I could def see it being a Intiman or Mack but I'd prefer seeing a RMC T-Rex. I think the T-Rex will eventually start replacing a lot of Arrow Loopers. I also think that this is the only way RMC ever comes to KI.

If you have the all season funpix are the videos included? I didn't knew that videos were an option at all. Do you get them at the same place you get your pictures or are videos only available at certain rides?

I didn't realize that. I could have swore I seen a Prowler picture online the other day. Do the have on-ride photos that are just not tied in with the funpix?

I hope this doesn't happen to me. I'm going to Worlds of Fun in July and I have the all season funpix also.

Big Coasters In Future?
I was think the same thing. Ouimet could be throwing everyone of by his comments. He probably knows most people would assume Intiman, but Cedar Fair has a few smaller MACK coasters. I'd love to see a few rides similar to Blue Fire or Helix open up in the Cedar Fair chain. It would also be cool to see CGA get a Mack Hyper coaster like Flash in China.

Big Coasters In Future?
My first choice is a Giga, but if we don't get the Giga I'm hoping for a Mack multi-launch like Blue Fire or Helix.

Coaster Restraints / Rider Fit
I'm 6'2 270 and I fit on everything. I haven't had any issue this season and I've been to Carowinds, Dollywood, Kings Island, and I'll hit Cedar Point this weekend. Good luck, you should be fine.

Can you still get your picture taken on Race for Your Life Charlie Brown?

Does Racer count as 2 credits???
It may be advertised as 1 attraction, but this coaster literally has 2 tracks. If you split this ride down the middle you'd have 2 cloned coasters. Now if it was a möbius loop I'd consider it one credit. But it's literally 2 different coasters advertised as 1 attraction. I think it's 2 credits.

The Giga Speculation Thread
That's what I was thinking, likely Winterfest.

The Giga Speculation Thread
Last night during the blackout at Kings Island I took a stroll over from Planet Snoopy over towards AE. Along the way I noticed what looked like brand new footers back behind the Effiel Tower and down by the big formal Kings Island clock. Pretty sure it's not for any new coaster in the future but could it be for a future flat ride? I hope so, but I'm thinking it might have something to do with Winterfest.

The Most Ridiculous Thing a Ride Operator has told you.
Tony Clark from CP must be the most unprofessional Cedar Fair employee ever. He's a huge jokester, pun intended!!

How was your ride on Mystic Timbers?
If your lucky enough to have it rain right before you get to the park I'm sure lines would be down from what they have been.
-
How was your ride on Mystic Timbers?
I would guess 2/3 hours. But you'll never know if you don't go. It could be only 20 minutes.

2017 Gold & Platinum Passholder Preview Night
Man Kings Island is taking a ton of heat on the reviews of pass holder night on their FB page. It was def more crowded than I expected but seeing both of my kids be able to ride their first coasters made the day great for me.
-
2017 Gold & Platinum Passholder Preview Night
They crowds were insane. The traffic started for me at Montgomery RD on 275. Once I got through enterance it took an hour driver around the parking lot to find an open spot. I rode nothing. So mad I didn't make Media Day with my fellow ACErs. But on a positive note my 6 year old son was finally tall enough for AE, he loved it. I wish that ride had pictures so I could have got it. Also my 2 year old daughter made the 36 inch mark & got to ride the purple coaster as she calls it. Her face says it all!! This picture made my heart happy & forget how crazy crowded it was. She loved it!!!!

Mystic Timbers Coverage on Media Day
I got my e-mail from Don & Scott Short from ACE today!!! I'm pretty excited. This will be my first Media Day event.

The Giga Speculation Thread
I'm like a kid in a candy store when thinking about KI getting a Giga. KI holds a special spot in my heart and Giga's are my favorite coaster type. I love the height and speed. I really hope this rumor becomes reality. I was just curious if any KIC members in the know have actually heard anything. I have not, other than the normal speculation amongst us enthusiasts.
-
The Giga Speculation Thread
I know this rumor has been going around for awhile now & I do believe it's gonna happen eventually. But has anyone every heard any of the KI employees or Cedar Fair higher ups acknowledge this KI Giga or even hint around about the possibility?
