We don't know much about this coaster or park, but here's what we do know: The maximum speed will be 156MPH, attained on the drop through the tunnel. As for the park, it will be part of a new city called Qiddiya, located 40 minutes from the capital. Information about the park can be found here: https://content.sixflags.com/qiddiya/ Information on Qiddiya can be found here: https://www.qiddiya.com Here is the video!:

HUGE announcement from BGW!

Ohhh,that's exciting! Please let us know the name of the new maze as soon as possible!

Thank you for sharing that @silver2005, and I'm sorry about you getting gaslighted. However, I would like to mention, and I hope you don't get mad at me for this, that I sort of felt like your post above is a little bit critical.

HUGE announcement from BGW!
MaxxForce replied to MaxxForce's topic in Other Amusement Parks & Industry News
There's been another teaser! This one centers on Neptune: My forummates on ParkFans have come up with a theory that these three gods, (Pluto, Mercury, and Neptune,) represent the ride's 3 launches. -
Is it ilegal to be on a call and show them a ride at Kings Island?
MaxxForce replied to -Bookat-'s topic in Kings Island
I can see why. That would be quite a mess for the maintenance team... Putting that typo aside, if the park does not want you to film on rides, those are their rules, and you should follow them. -
HUGE announcement from BGW!

BGW released a new teaser today! This time it focuses on Mercury, and you can check it out on Instagram. It's similar to the Pluto teaser, but the symbol on the flag is different as well as the colors. There will be teasers like this every Tuesday until July 30. -
Well guys, after nearly 2 years of waiting, BGW is finally starting to tease their new addition formerly known as Project Madrid. For those of you who don't know what I'm talking about, in 2017 BGW filed a 315 foot height waiver under the name "Project Madrid". This lead people to believe that they were adding a giga coaster and a Spanish hamlet. No major developments happened for over a year, until this April, when the fan site BGWFans leaked the layout of a Intamin triple-launch coaster. In May, BGWFans announced that Project Madrid was officially dead and the Intamin had been ordered as filler. The park, for their part, have stayed silent on the matter. However, that all changed yesterday when BGW's Twitter posted this: It is a rather short video, and in it you can see a flag with a weird yellow symbol on it, followed by some Roman numerals at the end that say VII XXX MMXIX. In case anyone is wondering why I am mentioning this, it is because the Roman numerals are actually the date that the coaster is announced. VII is 7, XXX is 30, and MMXIX is 2019. Therefore, the announcement will take place on Tuesday, July 30. Another thing to take note of is the text in the Tweet itself. What do you think this coaster will be called? Discuss here!

Caution, this post may contain sensitive material that might upset some readers. This is just how I felt upon seeing the video and I don't want to be mean: I wouldn't be surprised if this wound up in a video with the title "OMG TOP ROLLER COASTER ACCIDENTS!" Seriously, you know a clickbait channel will probably take this video and make it seem like it happens all the time. They'll probably also exaggerate some facts too, just to make this seem worse than it actually was. With that out of the way, I truly feel bad for everyone whose lives were changed by this event. I sincerely hope no one died and everyone can just learn from this and understand that it wasn't anybody's fault. I also hope that people understand accidents like this are extremely rare, and that mostly amusement park rides are safe. I'm just a little bit worried that people will think this happens all the time. Well, those are my thoughts. If anyone finds this post violates the TOS, I will accept the consequences.

Hersheypark 2020 Coaster

I can't wait! -
On the Banshee webcam, I can see a large clearing behind Banshee. Edit: Never mind, that's been there for a while. Is it a storage lot, or new dorms?

The track has arrived!:

Something's Happening at Fort Cooper!

12 years later... Firehawk is gone forever. -
I agree with this statement 100%. We can begin by blocking him, then write to the CEO of Facebook and/or Twitter asking them to remove him from their platform. If things escalate, we can take legal action against him.

Really weird one last night! Brace yourselves: I was walking around a Kings Island expansion talking to a climate change skeptic. The thing was it was 12 degrees out! The skeptic pointed to the snow that was falling and said, "If the planet is getting warmer, explain the weather today." I launched into this long, scientific explanation about how manmade greenhouse gasses are weakening the Jet Stream and allowing the polar Vortex to spread. He then sighed and said, "You convinced me." Next thing I know, I was at a party at a house in Cincinnati, pinning together a map of the US that showed all the amusement parks and their corresponding soda. I finish the map and it disappears, revealing a plastic cup of soda. I drink it, then go to the dining room and pick up 15 cans of Sprite. While I am drinking the Sprite, a magazine about the history of Coke shows up in my hands and I start reading. Then, I jump forward in time when everyone at the party is being chased by a monster. Whatever I did before bed is now off-limits. I am done having these ridiculous dreams.

Coney: Cannonball Cove - New for 2019
MaxxForce replied to beastfan11's topic in Coney Island Central
I wonder what @CoastersRZ thinks of this attraction. It would be interesting to hear what he has to say. -
I would like something like the Raven's Grin Inn to come to Haunt: http://www.hauntedravensgrin.com/ I love the interactive element of the Raven's Grin Inn house in Mount Carroll, and I think KI would benefit greatly from a haunted house like it.

I would love to see this at KI!

Did the lift hill turn into an inversion? Because if it did, I love it! Also, did anyone else notice that the track has a bluish-purplish color in the animation if you look closely enough? It sort of reminds me of a poison-dart frog, although I am not trying to start any rumors.
