I'd be content with them replacing Python with a good wild mouse or maybe even something along the lines of Waldameer's Steel Dragon.

Is there a way to make the ads respect device width? They're overflowing the forum area on my phone.

I thought Soak City always closed at 7.

I'll have to put in my request for opening day at work tomorrow since it appears there isn't going to be a passholder preview night this year (though I was planning to take opening day off either way - just wanted to make things easier on my manager by not putting in two separate requests for consecutive days).

The biggest change this year is that the park is open to the public on the Sunday following opening day (albeit shortened hours - 12-7), which is when they're usually closed for a buyout. I'm hoping that if the buyout is on the 14th, Mystic Timbers won't make its debut until the 15th. Otherwise we'll all hear about what's in the shed before opening day.

Glad you enjoyed it. It was by far one of the most painful coaster-riding experiences I've had.

Here you go. Hover over your nick in a post or elsewhere in the forum (online users, leaderboard, etc.) then click "Find Content" once the member card pops up. http://www.KICentral.com/forums/index.php?/profile/9652-jtro223/content/ Unfortunately the hover trick doesn't work on mobile devices but that's the only easy way to get to it.

I went once probably 20-25 years ago (I have no idea how old I was at the time) and haven't been back since. I will probably try to make it this year depending on ticket prices and such since it will be the last one.

If you can only do one, HoliWood Nights is the one I'd pick, especially since you haven't done it in several years. This will be my 3rd straight HoliWood Nights and it's a ton of fun. Plus, you'll have an excuse to hit Kentucky Kingdom on your way home (though I highly recommend skipping T3).

Everything works now. Thanks!

That's made by the same company that made TopSpin at Coney. Would definitely be a good fit there.

For those curious here's a video of the ride from IAAPA.

This looks like fun http://www.dailyitem.com/news/knoebels-announces-new-ride/article_e6cc3d04-d502-11e6-9e49-27233e6df90a.html

Any word on when/if the remaining notification options will be enabled? The only way I'm getting notified of people liking my posts is through Tapatalk.

This could be interesting... http://www.ocregister.com/articles/knott-740497-park-auction.html

The old mobile layout was a separate theme entirely, so it could have been different. The new version uses what's called "responsive design" to properly adapt to a variety of screen sizes, rather than using a separate theme designed for mobile devices.

I'll be signing up as soon as signup is open.

Tapatalk appears to be working fine for me. I switched to the lighter theme as well, which isn't as narrow as the dark one. I'm hoping notifications for likes will be re-enabled soon as well.

KI has officially announced that opening day will be April 15th this year.

Nice to see an upgrade again. Hopefully we won't end up accidentally locking Terpy out like we did when the software was (briefly) upgraded last time. So far I haven't really found many issues except what's already been mentioned - some notification options are disabled, no signatures, etc. Also, a couple things that I don't think have been mentioned yet... Is there a way to get rid of the "topics" sidebar on the main page? I would prefer to hide it and have the main forum stuff take up that space instead. Will there be a "widescreen" option? I'm not a fan of fixed-width layouts (again space that could be occupied by content)

If everything works out the way I plan I should be on track to add 4 new parks to my list this year... Major events planned this year: Coasterstock Holiwood Nights (with a stop at Kentucky Kingdom on the way home) Whirlwind week-long trip in July (Lakemont, Dorney, Knoebels, Memphis Kiddie Park and Cedar Point in that order...). Other things I'm considering: Return to Holiday World in late August for Rock the World (Skillet is playing this year) Weekend trip to Indiana Beach in September In addition there will be the usual trips to KI (probably once a week during daily operation like I did last year), a few trips to Coney at some point (hopefully at least one being for Balloon Glow) and hopefully at least one trip to Stricker's Grove, especially since my niece can ride all the kiddie rides there this year.

Here's the most recent statement from the park, posted to both Facebook and Twitter at approximately 10pm Pacific last night (1am this morning Eastern time): https://twitter.com/knotts/status/815078361374461952

More live coverage from the NBC affiliate in Los Angeles: https://www.facebook.com/NBCLA/videos/10154380993211028/ Firefighters will now be using cables to take riders down to the ground one at a time, children first. Apparently this is caused by the ride's brake system malfunctioning, and riders have been stuck for close to 5 hours now.

If anyone wants to continue following along, here's live video from Fox 11 in LA since the one from KGTV ended... https://www.facebook.com/fox11la/videos/10158003915170553/
