^The size does affect the ride, Ravens not that exciting.......why.......because its size..........its too small and toos hort..........right when it gets going its over. So who cares what the "ACERS" voted for best coaster, ACERS arent known for their smart decisions... Besides LegendRider Im just giving you a hard time, I cant wait to get out to Holiday World on May 6th for Voyage!

You got sick on The Beast, you and all your friends go directly to the bathroom, do not pass go, do not let the employee or the guests about to get into your vomit filled seat know.
-
Theyre rub on's right? or do you seriously have inked tatoos?
-
Legend Rider, Ravenand Legend are good, but uhm you know hwy they dont compare to The Beast? Because there about 3/4 shorter than The Beast, Ravens night ride wouldve been really intense had it not ended right when it was getting good, it sucks when coaster are too short, hopefully that wont happen with voayge.

Your PKIC 2006 Wish List

Why would Paramounts Kings Island Central install Nintendo avtars? although it would be great to have a mario themed ride. I think it be great if you guys could make a documentary on some interesting and little known history of PKI, like maybe on a ride or coaster with some information that most dont know about, not like The Beast where everyone has seen the que line video but maybe a documentary on concepts that failed to make it to the park! -

Check out the guy in this picture (LINK) I would hate to check lap bars from there, i wonder if anyone has ever fallen off the other side while trying to get into the train. Do you think they'll replace it with another type of coaster? -
I didnt say DIsney wasnt thrlling, or lacked thrills, i just said they were more geared towards families.
-
WHen thrillseekers bring in the money that familes do with kids rides then we'll see more rollercoasters. For the last time, PKI is not thrillsville USA, thats CP, PKI is disney of the midwest........a fun FAMILY enviroment. WHy is geared towards families? Cause they bring in the money. Just watch, soon the CF parks will gear towards families too because they see how much $ famlies spend. Disney doesnt have that many thrills, theyre more about family then thrills, and look how they turned out.

^Yeah, they took it down after the accident.

Some of Astroworld sold to the public
Gordon Bombay replied to Vortex's topic in Other Amusement Parks & Industry News
well, with the B&M inverts and flyers able to do inversions and so much more than the arrow suspends, something along those lines is probably much more marketable. Although I love our Top Gun, and Im not dissing the arrow suspended coasters..... XLR-8's point was for the suspended model to work, not neccesarily be extremely thrilling. There would probably be a better response to an invert or flyer. -
::slap:: Correct typing please! You are super pathetic!

Kind of like an Ashlee Simpson, Eminem, or Nickleback performance? -

^LOL, XLR-8 sucks, our Top Gun is so MUCH BETTER! XLR-8 only goes about 35 milesper hour and is straight msot of the time with only some smal drops, eventhough it has two lift hills. -
^Yeah and when thrillseekers start bringing in the money like the families do then we'll get huge massive coasters, however since Viacom and Paramount want to make money.........theyre gonna focus ont he money..........family and theme. PKI is no Disney..............yet..............but thats how disney got so succesful.........by focusing on the family and theming their parks to their movies. Yeah, id love PKI to get a bi B&M however you people need to look at the facts......the thrill seekers arent bringing in the money......families are.......and thats who PKI is going to focus on so quit your whinging.
-
What kind of restauraunt did you own? Was it unseucessful or did you just want to get out of the business, if you dnt mind me asking.
-
hahaha youve worked at the park since 2002 and you dont know what recar is? silly nick roedl and his tomb raider delorian.
-
Top Cat's Taxi Jam..........quite the headbanger!
-
Having an elevator has nothing to do with it. It was never advertised as being "Handicap Accessible" therefore no codes are being violated. As far as health codes IR only need to do minor upgrades to reopen. It will not happen as PKI does not want to spend the money. and your source?
-
^I asked Jeff Seibert about that idea on the last tour and he said we were supposed to get a Hurler clone and that Happy Days was going to become Stan Mikitas.
-
^yeah it kind of stinks theres not any more plans for star trek movies any other really interesting nixed ideas you wanna tell us about? I know a few but id love to hear more.

what did they plan to put in the space if they got rid of it? -
^Theming IR to the first class dining room would be really cool, that would really bring that magic of the movies thing to PKI, it would be like dining in an actual movie set, darn Paramount and their cheap pockets.

Shaggy you talk about shot down conepts, wasnt there a concept for having a copy of volcano installe din the park but do to the lack of the mountain and the cost it was shot down? Ive heard quite a few concepts that never made it but if you could share more that would be great!
