Captain Nemo

I noticed on my recent trip that the bottom on the final lift hill a substantial amount of of damage to the roof that was covered. By the amount of damage I saw looks like it may have fallen in. Anyone else see this?

In light of all the mistakes made on the posters I recently came across a video from INSIDE the KI marketing office.

It's also a possibility that KI just is not doing a teaser campaign or have not yet conceptualized one yet. Considering how much or the attraction is known already they may have had to cancel or rework it... Or maybe again just did not work on one.

There are SO many Easter eggs in FOFs queue. Some even referencing Tomb Raider the ride

From the look of another Twitter image it looks like it more than just 'bumped'. The folding platform in the station looks to be damaged. Maybe a 10 - 15MPH collision. Still a powerful collision.

I'm all up for themeing, but I hope the execution is better then what Mystic Timbers promised.

If only there were aerial photos!

Pulsar has a rotating station to allow two trains on what is their shuttle water coaster,

Hello BSBMX, The text is illegible. -Captain Nemo

Good afternoon good people. Here are additional photos from yesterdays flight. If there are any areas you want a closer look at please reply to this message and I'll zoom into my raw files I added some different perspectives and some shots of the finished supports at the fabrication plant. Does anyone in shot 7 know what the purple track is? -Captain Nemo (Gabriel)

Here are photos from today's flight over the construction site and the steel fab site. Took at least 400 photos, here are a snippit of them. Enjoy, -Captain Nemo (Gabriel)

If anyone is at the park today I recommend riding Drop Tower. I could clearly see large land clearing. Look between and a bit beyond the batwing and zero g roll of Banshee.

As a technician I can tell you the speakers in the FoF dome have NEVER been swapped out for new ones. That means its the same 25+ year speakers as the day it opened. Im sorry but this speaks volume of negligence, and it's an easy fix to.

Would they be ok with my Tomb Raider: The Ride tattoo on my arm My current employment allows tattoos but are subject to be covered if found inappropriate. Normally all tattoos are appropriate and do not hit taboo subjects. For example I have a tattoo on my arm in remembrance of the Holocaust and is allowable at my professional job. As the country becomes more and more PC I do see additional larger companies allowing tattoos.

And here we find the time Don Helbig first learned how to use Windows Movie Maker. Good riddance... Anyway, glad those Dinos are gone and we can utilize that land for another Windows Movie Maker teaser. GIGA

And the music makes it even better. Oh and some cool guy uploaded all the music from TRTR on YouTube.

What is the main format of the podcast?

Yeah, I saw it. Happy Halloween

You should probably check out FoF in closer detail this season! I wouldn't have posted it if I had not seen it myself.

I'm surprised to hear all this came from a rides employee, I would have expected an actual department in charge of refurbishment to do all this. Goes to show how far you can go with little money. I also heard Mystics Station (which was bare at the start of the season) was also themed by the crew. Again, very surprising to hear the crew did a better job themeing than the actual team hired to do so. Either way, big props!

I wouldn't say putting Santa hats on 1/3 of the animatronics counts as going "All out". My vote is TRTR. While understandably the concept of the ride had to change with the selling of Paramount, I feel Cedar Fair took the cheap route with the retheme (if one can actually call 'Inception' music a theme). The Top Spin was a popular and great addition to the park. Durga (the goddess in the show building) is not intellectual property of Paramount. Durga is a actually Goddess in Hindi religion... No one owns the image, same as razor shard icy stalactites, or a red hot boiling lava pit.

I don't know... I remember the Dinosaurs Alive teaser videos...

I totally understand where you are coming from and completely agree. There has been a shift the past 10 years in preventative / refurbishment maintenance in attractions around the park. I've seen it with Boo Blasters, Adventure Express, and FoF, lest we forget how TRTR/Crypt was managed. The way I see it, it comes down to budget. The park needs to refocus its efforts to revitalizing the attractions. Everything needs refurbishment that much is true but no one especially in this kind of business should blindside their own products deterioration. I've many times suggested to park management the utilization of a website called, Issuetrak. A one stop site for compiling/reporting and assigning proper issues on the corresponding maintenance necessary by assigning a task to a specific group and hold that group responsible until the work is complete. I no longer work with Kings Island so there is unfortunately not much I can push on their table anymore but I continue to share this site and its benefits with current employees. https://www.issuetrak.com/
