Intamin track spotted on 275 today!
Captain Nemo replied to YoungStud's topic in Other Amusement Parks & Industry News
Most likly it was heading to Cedar Point. If it was red you can bet 99.9% that was where it was going. It must have been a sight to see. -
Im unsure of the whole name change and what that will bring but I don't think we will nedd to be worried about any change to the name "Kings Island". If anything Cedar Fair will want to keep that name just drop the Paramount, they may add some title before like Cedar Fairs Kings Island but I think Kings Island is just fine.

This is how I like to think of the whole thing... Listen to the following music while you read. mmm, the smell of cedar! Recently a Cedar Tree has been caught in the area near Kings Island. All the commotion near PKI grew and rumors began spreading around on why the tree was there. The tree grew and grew and people began to make guesses what it was doing there. Was the tree going to spread its seeds into PKI? This all came from fiction to fact; the seed was planted at Kings Island and should be a fully grown Cedar Tree in September! People have mixed feelings about the growth of this tree in PKI. Many say it does not belong, some say that there are too many Cedars in the state of Ohio, but others think the new cedar tree will sprout into something great. Now I at first questioned the cedar tree and its presence here but I soon welcomed it after I thought down to think about it. All the Sap from the tree could make our land (PKI) a better place. The Tree Sap from the Cedar tree has had a great mixture of wonderful things that have made people happy and I for one know that this tree sap will be Kings Islands Nectar. When one tree is sucked dry of its nectar, the bugs search for a new source, in this case it is the cedar tree. The new tree will bring a new taste to the bugs and have something they never had before. The new tree is growing and when it sprouts in September we will sure be in for a new taste of what we know as Paramount Kings Island! The Mountain snow has melted and spring is blooming on our beloved summit, and in the place of where snow once glistened a Cedar Tree has grown!

Since almost everyone here at PKIC is used to the Nick theme almost everyone will vote Nick.

Cedar Fair Purchases Paramount Parks!
Captain Nemo replied to BoddaH1994's topic in Kings Island Central Newsroom
Cedar Fair now has if you really take it all in, a monopoly in Ohio. Big changes are to come our way. This year is about to get interesting. -
It's really hard to tell, but usually in the morning it's not very crowded since alot of services are going out.

Worst park on earth!
Captain Nemo replied to ZosoBeast's topic in Other Amusement Parks & Industry News
It's not that bad... I would go! -
The park I would say had 35-40 thousand people today. Almost every ride had a full queue. It was quite busy today.
-
I had the chance to get me a ride on SOB. I myself thought the ride was great last year and before that and I had no problem with it. It is smoother this time around and a much more enjoyable ride. It is worth taking a spin on.

Posts in the community forum don't count into your post count because that forum is where games and what not are and are easy post counts. Other forums are more academic, thats why you get post counts in the other forums.

Gah, Your doing a great job! Don't feel to old yet!

The resort is looking grand! A great addition to PKI. If you ride Top Gun you will have a grand view of the area. The tubes for the water park are huge and the resort it self looks great. the outer finish is done on one of the buildings and looks quite nice. The finished product will be a marvel to see.

Those clips went by so fast I don't know how anyone could see any landmarks to tell what park that is. Obviously they have a ride like Hypersonic XLC but I don't think it is PKD.

I'll see you there Legend Rider, and this time don't knock me in the head with a dictionary. Oh, and we have to get you to eat the best "Pezza" around cincinnati, DEWIES!

*VIDEO* Fox 19 Goes behind the Scenes of The Beast
Captain Nemo replied to CoastersRZ's topic in Kings Island
I never liked the pop up window to watch the videos. They never work on my computer. Why can't they just have it as a simple download. -
Kingda Ka breakdown 06
Captain Nemo replied to Captain Nemo's topic in Other Amusement Parks & Industry News
It's really not a copy. although the concept is alike the ride experience is different from what people have said. -
CEDAR POINT 07'
Captain Nemo replied to The New England Snapper's topic in Other Amusement Parks & Industry News
If you really wanna know what they will get in 2007, this is what you do... you wait! -
I find this topic very interesting. I like hearing what people have to say about their favorite ride. I would like to hear more of why they like it but it's cool how I thought people would be picking one ride but everyone is different with the rides they like.
-
Kingda Ka, The tallest and fastest coaster in the world is according to the Six flags site and other fan sites down over a major breakdown. Rumors have been going around about what happend. From what people on forums are saying it may be awhile before it opens.

From what I heard from the people who went last weekend to CP, they told me Skyhawk looks like nothing special. Before you know it once it gets to full swing it slows down and ends. That tells me at first it is probably not a great ride but on the other hand people who have been on it said it pulls some sweet airtime. I'll have to ride it myself to decide.

New Aerial Shots of Paramounts Kings Island!
Captain Nemo replied to Dane's topic in Kings Island Central Newsroom
Thanks for the great comments. I'll let "Marlin" as harvesterofyoursorrow likes to call my dad, know how much you guys appreciate the photos. PKI looks grand from the air. I try to top my photos from previous flyovers but as always, the park will never have something "new" for me to snap a pic of. Either it will be a different angle of zoom. My dad and I are working on getting more zoomed pictures of each ride. Thanks again for the comments. -Nemo -

The Maiden Voyage
Captain Nemo replied to Legend Rider's topic in Other Amusement Parks & Industry News
This looks like one wicked ride. If this roller coaster was just hills and swoops I bet it would not be that great. What I think makes this ride one of a kind is the sheer speed of the roller coaster and the elements it goes through at those speeds. -
Going along with PKINick, outside of PKI my Fav is Millinium Force. That drop feels like it never is going to end. not only that it has one of the best turns on any coaster at it's high speeds.

Coaster Con in next year! We have to do something great.
