  1. Happy Birthday PKIC!! Thanks to everyone who keeps this beast of a site going, hands down the best PKI-fan site on the net and will be for many years to come. It only gets better from here folks and there are some amazing things planned!
  2. ^Psycho Path had a lot of dead spots though where nothiing was going on and at times the fog was so thick people were just stopping and backing everyone up. I liked the asylum the best because you would make a wrong turn, get stuck, then an actor would be right behind you it was great! Cowboy Carnage was great too, I loved the John Wayne music and the western theme. It was pretty good.
  3. ^Yep, the one at Jungle Jims is the former mono rail at Kings Island.
  4. I dont see why everyones saying its so expensive, if you have a pass already fearfest is included and if you need a ticket you can get them for 20 bucks online or at local stores. Gas is way lower than it has been all summer and if your worried about the price of food in the park, just go either mcdonalds' that are 5-10 minutes from each PKI parking lot exit. I know some people arent into haunted attractions and thats cool, they have their own thing, but this event is a better value each year.
  5. Fearfest is better than ever this year. I was really impressed. Last year I enjoyed it but wasnt to into it, this year it was awesome. I cant wait to go back saturday night. The park and staff did an excellent job of transforming the park into a different world. Hats off to Kings Island for yet another awesome event!
  6. This years fearfest was great and very impressive. I liked Cowboy Carnage the best!
  7. We are currently getting photos up from dry run night. Fearfest is even better this year and saturday night PKIC's media team will be back to fearfest to get even more of the best photos around on the best site around. -Combat Stupendous, who would take an army of 2000 over an army of 200 any day.
  8. Its a posibility, they have some of the cars stil but not all of them. Cool things can happen though. Please use the spell check and follow the terms of service when posting from now on.
  9. Theres no reason that someone who gets out of line should be able to get back in line simply because they had to go to the restroom, its not fair simply because the guests cant prove it. The employees are instrcuted not to let guests do this and the fun and safety guides out front clearly state that once you get out of line you forefit your place in line. If you have some type of medical condition then you may follow the proper procedures for obtaining a disability guide.
  10. The Antique Cars is what you are trying to say. They are gone and the stunt track will not be removed.
  11. While the park did lose two classic rides, the Italian Job: Stunt Track went over well with the general public, and was a big sucess. So much so that they installed yet another one at a sister park the next year. Sorry deafmonk, but like PKIBeast said, it aint gonna happen.
  12. Certain Media outlet represenatives were also invited. Such as the staff of www.pkicentral.com Ryan, Dane, Bill, RZ, I'm sure will provide an awesome update.
  13. How do you know the cost of paper towels per operating day and where did you get this information plus why dont you tell us the cost of them and how do you know that th bathrooms havent been re-furbished within the last 10 years. 10 years ago they didnt have automatic flushers or sinks, granted some are older than others, they are well maintained and have been maintained and upgraded more recently than 1996! CF is not one to boast about restrooms, GL's restrooms are terrible and CP's werent any better than KI's when I went last month.
  14. Cant wait to see ya there haunt guy, it will be great meeting another person from the site. Ill be with Ryan, Bill, and RZ shooting pictures.
  15. Uhm what lights are on in FOF except the stage lights that have always been on and whats wrong with Viking Fury?
  16. The train ride show stopped because the train became transportation service to and from the water park. It serves better as a transportation device than a show. If it stopped like it did in days past it would take longer for the train to make a circut thus making the train route not a viable option for guests coming to and from the water park and most guests dont want to walk that distance. I know that after I spend all day at teh water park id rather take the train back than walk and Id prefer the appropriate music they play now that isnt to loud over stopping for some show that would make teh trip even longer. KECO killed the show, not Paramount, and the train is better off without it. If you want the show than it can not also do service to the water park and anohter transportation option is needed and I see absoutley no reason why they would spend the money to put in a whole new transportation system just so they can make the train some small show again. The train show is not and will not be coming back, sad to say as it is.
  17. ^I know what website your talking about but cant remember it for the life of me! According to RCDB the one at Port Adventura is not considered to be 4d, and that this is to be a different model. I checked out the press release and the links from rcdb and couldnt find any conceptual art or drawings.
  18. I havent seen this announced or discussed on here but apparently Intamin AG of Switzerland is building their first, and what is to be the worlds third 4th dimension coaster. The first being X at SFMM built by Arrow Dynamics, the second at Nagashima Spa Land built by Arrow purchasher S&S power. Intamin AG unveiled a prototype 4d coaster one time that held riders however this seems to be their first large scale one. They are calling it an Intamin "Zac Spin". The coaster will be 1 minute long, go 37 miles per hour, will be 465 feet long, and 83 feet tall. The coaster is set to open up at Linnanmäki in Helinski Finland in 2007 and is being called "Kirnu". Heres the rcdb info: Kirnu (Linnanmaki) RCDB page.
  19. What an idiot, this guy makes more money in a day than I will probably ever see in my life and he doesnt even keep track of what gives him that money.
  20. hahaah I love pathetic little 14 year olds.
  21. If it was a false advertisement I'm sure certain other partys would be involved
  22. ^The structure is, however the track is wooden track. So like the voyage that section has steel supports with wooden track. Making it a wooden roller coaster, not a steel coaster or a hybrid.
  23. I think the destruction of Hannah Barberra Land was the best thing to happen to the kids area in recent years. Not because I dislike HB, but because it was looking really really really trashy, I was amazed when it won best kids area 2005. The place looked terrible (although still much better than any of CP's kids areas). It wouldve been cool to see them renovate it and still use the HB themes but NU looks great and the kids love it.
  24. hahaahahh that is in no way wicked twister at all
