    It has been said before and will be said again. Vortex is not sinking. I think we should add that fact to the 'facts' section on this site on Vortex's page. Oh, and klock... I am flattered, gave me a smile!
  2. I hate to see another park go. The park, and I hate to say this, has not done recently in years. Attractions have been added but it never brought the park the coustomers it needed. What ever is done with the rides I have faith CF will make a smart dicision... I hope.
  3. You have done a wonderful job with the site. All of you, I would love to now get some aerial for you.
  4. When I first came to KI when I was around eight years old I was not the coaster rider I am today. I did not want to ride roller coasters like Flight of Fear and Vortex, even beast. The ride I remember being most scared to go on was FoF. Oh, and for the first time ever, last week Drop Zone actually made me nervous.
  5. My personally love Subway, maybe it is because I can watch my food being made, on top of that subway is good! I also love Happy Days Diner.

    There have always been it seems a lot of opinions about Top Gun. When it opened it was an amazing feat and brought a lot of publicity to the park. It was the second coming of the short lived Bat. In my opinion I think Top Gun is a wonderful roller coaster, so I am going to have to disagree with those who think it should be removed. Top Gun is one of those rides, while perhaps not as popular as rides like Flight of Fear or Drop Zone, is still a wonderful experience and draws crowds of the less coaster buffs and younger ones. It is in the perfect area of the park and almost seems separate from the park (except the helix near SOB). While it is a short ride you must admit it pulls quite a punch compared to other arrow suspended coasters. I can't see Top Gun going anywhere soon.
  7. I recommend all players even if they played Season 1 and/or 2 to play again. Not only do you have another chance to become sole survivor but a chance to know more about the fellow users on this site. As a player of season one I got to know so many players that ended up being good friends in the end. I recommend this for everyone. -Captain Nemo
  8. I hope those KIC members from the SOB video didn't get harmed out in those woods.
  9. First of all the site is not there. Here is the review for those wanting to read. http://coastercritic.blogspot.com/2007/08/...er-coaster.html
  10. Those are also manuel hand breaks. Meaning the people on the car have to pull a lever to bring the car to a slow.
  11. Hersheypark has 10 coasters. Whats better than 10 coasters? That is what I think they are getting across.

  13. If Universal had bought the park they could have themed it off of the movie "Problem Child".
  14. It was Kings Island Central Day. Click the following link for the info. http://www.KICentral.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=10113
  15. The last day of the season is what is posted which is as you said the 28th of October. The reason KI closes is because many of the rides can only operate in warmer temperatures. The only time it was open during December was Winterfest 1982-1992, and in 2005.
  16. Wow, I laughed at my golden scene however I don't know if I should feel proud.
  17. Hey It was great meeting you! I guess if I plan on being a designer, good people and talking skills are needed. Happy to see I am good at doing both.
  18. Danes three word answer of "Never been there" made this gold. Oh and what is Paul doing while I was talking?
  19. I give a round of applause to everyone that made this event possible. But like RZ said, Thanks to all the fans of KI and the users that visit the site everyday. Without you this would never have been. The event was a great success and I had a blast. I am happy to have met so many from the site and make new friends.
  20. I for one am not worried at all about how hot it will be. In my case the high 90's is nothing since I just came back from Israel. Try thinking hiking down Masada in 106 Degrees. I am so happy to hear that this event will be even better since it will be a nice day.
  21. Yeah, I hold the record for Tomb Raider. Thats why its says "honorary Record Holder" in my sig.
  22. Hello everybody. You may have noticed I have been been absent from the forums during this month, thats because I am in Isreal! Here are some photos for you all to see! This is me lighting a candle for a teenager of 18 who died at Auschwitz. This picture is taken from inside auschwitz camp. This is in Israel. For one night we slept under the stars on nothing more than a sleeping bag. In the middle of the night everyone woke to a singing of 100's of cats. Looks comfy? Thats right, I went repelling! This was taken during a jeep ride through the hills in Israel. Very fun!! Getting ready for Shabbat. So thats just a small update for you all. I can't wait to see you all at KIC day! Have a great day!
  23. Probably a typo. The site is still being worked on, if you notice it still says Paramount at the top of the browser.
  24. One off the top of my head is Sandstorm by Darude
  25. The statue was put there behind the tower in 2003 to promote the new Tomb Raider Movie "The Cradle of Life", and to promote the Tomb Raider Stunt Show. The show was preformed in 2003. Here is the press release "Big Screen" Action and Hollywood-Style Stunts Come to Life at Paramount's Kings Island July 15 - 27 in the Tomb Raider Stunt Show Featuring Lara Croft Paramount Pictures'Lara Croft Tomb Raider: The Cradle of LifeOpens in Movie Theaters on July 25 Kings Island, Ohio - In conjunction with the summer motion picture release of Lara Croft Tomb Raider: The Cradle of Life, a Tomb Raider stunt spectacular with Hollywood-style action premieres at Paramount's Kings Island on Tuesday, July 15.
