I've been asking this question to some of my crew members for a while now, so now I'll ask you guys, the KICentral community! Here's the question: Which of these rides do you think is the most underrated ride at Kings Island? If there's a ride that you think is the most underrated ride at the park and it's not listed, then you may choose "other" and comment down below which ride it is that wasn't on the list. This should be fun! As always, be respectful of others' opinions please Enjoy!!

I'm pretty sure that's actually what used to be there before they built Tomb Raider: The Ride. Someone I know has this whole conspiracy that Kings Island, eventually, plans on removing the log flume ride in Planet Snoopy. He said that the park would remove the log flume ride and replace it with a "Maverick-style" attraction, like Cedar Point did. Of course, that instead ended up being Mystic Timbers, which did NOT involve the removal of the log flume ride. I might've been hearing things, but I think there was a short time when Kings Island actually had a ferris wheel! I'd have to recheck my Kings Island history book. But yes, I do agree with what you said about the ferris wheel. The only problem though that I could possibly think of with installing a ferris wheel at Kings Island would be the location of the ride, like where it would go. But other than that, I think a ferris wheel would be a great addition to the park's attraction lineup!

Yeah, I know. Again, I think if they were to add this kind of hotel next to Soak City, I think it should be named this: Castaway Harbor Hotel I would love that!! I think it could a good job in terms of marketing. But that last part might depend on how Camp Cedar does, whenever that thing is opening!

If the hotel would be next to Soak City, why not give it some kind of beach themed name. Example: Castaway Harbor: hotel & lodge. Also, do you think they could add a water maze attraction themed to being stranded on an Island and your goal is to try to get off of it?

I still miss it

The Vortex was so photogenic! Every time I would look at it, I would always be just amazed about how MASSIVE that thing looked! It will be very missed!! =:( #BringBackVortex #RIPVortex #GoneButNotForgotten

It's all a part of the "Cedar Fair thematic universe."

In the bottom of this image of the photo booth at Flight of Fear's exit taken by @KIghostguy are two crates with multiple cassette tapes in them. My question is: What do you think each cassette tape says and what does it mean? Enjoy!

Are you able to name this "reviewer"? I actually got a picture with Logan at the Orion First Riders Event.

What does the GF stand for? LOL. I still don't know the reason why they put The Shed at the END of the ride. Are all those sharp turns just you being a unexperienced truck driver and somehow get trapped inside the shed and get killed by the monster (The giant, giant snake, and the giant "scary" tree)? Here's my honorable mentions list for my top five roller coasters at KI: Honorable mentions: Mystic Timbers- It would've been number 5 on the list if it didn't have a LONG line all the time! Surf Dog- I know it's "Arguably a coaster", but for now I'm not going to count it as one. But that doesn't mean I don't like it. It's a great family ride! Woodstock Express- I've never had ANY issues with this ride. It's not very rough, and doesn't ALWAYS have a VERY LONG line (I'm looking at you Mystic Timbers!). But when it comes to my "Top Five Best coasters at KI", it just wasn't able to make the cut. Flying Ace Arial Chase- Why did I put this in here?

Basically, here you can make fun of or criticize any roller coaster at KI in any way you want. As long as it's appropriate and respectful to other people. Here are a few examples of this stuff: Anyways, enjoy! Let the criticizing begin!

Zero. It's dead, but not forgotten.

Here are my Top Five roller coasters at KI: Diamondback- Amazing airtime! Orion- Great theming, really fast, and my first roller coaster to have a debate/argument with. Is it a Giga or a Hyper? The Racer(s)- What kind of coaster enthusiast wouldn't wanna race their friends on a roller coaster!? I'm pretty sure I've won every single time I've ridden it! (P.S, the Blue Side is most likely to win the most because the Red Side has trims!) The Beast- I'm surprised this ride even made it to my Top Five list! Spectacular night-ride! Invertigo- If you keep your head back against the seat the whole time, you'll have a more pleasant ride! Honorable mentions: Mystic Timbers- It would've been number 5 on the list if it didn't have a LONG line all the time! Surf Dog- I know it's "Arguably a coaster", but for now I'm not going to count it as one. But that doesn't mean I don't like it. It's a great family ride! Woodstock Express- I've never had ANY issues with this ride. It's not very rough, and doesn't ALWAYS have a VERY LONG line (I'm looking at you Mystic Timbers!). But when it comes to my "Top Five Best coasters at KI", it just wasn't able to make the cut. Flying Ace Arial Chase- Why did I put this in here?

LOL. It's hilarious today!!

I'm going to have to say The Vortex for two reasons. One: The only coasters I've ridden at KI that are now defunct were Firehawk and The Vortex. Two: The Vortex helped me conquer my fear of roller coasters and made me start to enjoy riding them more. Definitely. It feels so empty without that ride standing there. Guess it wasn't listening to Elton John enough.

I think "Orion's theming" is anything in ride's que, station and (maybe) its soundtrack. If I were to say that Area 72 is a part of "Orion's theming", that would be the same as saying that Area 72 is a part of Flight of Fear's "theming." Does that make more sense?

The only rides that I KNOW have some sort of connection with the lore/backstory of Area 72 are the following: Orion(obviously), FOF(Flight of Fear), Invertigo, Vortex(R.I.P), Firehawk(R.I.P), Adventure Express, Banshee, The Beast, Mystic Timbers, and Son of Beast. Question: Why would put the Son of Beast in the theming?

With the new Area 72 and the interesting lore surrounding it, I wonder if there's a way/theory that connects all rides and puts them on one single timeline. I'm asking you guys to come up with a theory that connects all the rides mentioned in the theming of Area 72 into one single timeline. Enjoy!

Maybe after you do the history book for KI, maybe you could do a book explaining the lore/backstory behind Area 72. It could be called, "Tales From AREA 72: And Other Extra Terrestrial Discoveries".

What's a Aquatrax? Why? Was it a hot rod that got its heat shot out of it? Maybe they couldn't think of a better ride the put on there.

Here's one that I did for Diamondback.

With the park's 50th anniversary coming up soon, I wanted to see if anyone can make some posters for the park and maybe some of its rides. I can't wait to see you come up with.

Is the book by any chance available for pre-ordering? If so, where?
