Snake Attack!

or if it is still there how you are going to see it, I tried my best

Allright so I actually ended up running my errand up to the lodge today, I went all the way round the lodge and could get really close to TG but not anywhere close enough to see where the loop could potentially be. So unless you are going to actually to be going into the lodge to look don't go by the lodge cause you can't see anything. Seems as if we are so close but so far away from finding if this rumor is true or false. Sorry no pics either I didn't have a camera.

Don't know how much this will help but I am going up to the Lodge tomorrow but I don't have a good camera so I don't think I could get you some good proof

I really like the way the park looked back then there is a nice pic of the ivy canopy that went through kidddie land, anybody know why that was removed or what it was replaced with?

So lets say hypothetically the loop does go out, how do they slow down the ride without completely ripping out a bunch of track. Also keep in mind the loop has never had any problems or for that matter after the loop either,(so why does the ride need to be slowed at that point?) it was before the loop (rose bowl) that had problems so what will removing the loop do to help these problems. And why couldn't they just redesign the cars since they are flawed with a rough ride not the loop.

Not sure what you drew from my post, but, keep in mind all of those parks are in different states which is a whole different set of rules sometimes.

Sad situation, I have to imagine it is tough to stop robery out there in the booths since it is so isolated from the rest of the park, I know in the park in games I always feel safe with the great security department.

^three more: will be X-flight JK anyway I would like to see if off park property or outside the park that way it isn't Kings Island that is running the hours and stuff like that on it but it would be ACE.

^Which as a worker just make your job not as fun cause you want to try new things like the deep friers or the night shift but you can't. On the other hand though I knew a guy who didn't tell he turned 16 cause he didn't want to work nights even though if he told he would have gotten a raise because of it. lol

Well I was talking about Major Minors which in english is 15 year olds. Sorry for the confusion but I do believe that 15 year olds aren't allowed to use highlighters and maybe sissors but not sure on that one, we always joke about that rule in games because there is so much 15 year olds can't do. Even more aplicable in games we get hit by the scaffalding one in the link below for 15 year olds, they can't climb up the basketball games or up the center game attics. No I couldn't find the highlighter one sorry. http://www.regionalchamber.com/pdf/minorlawsMM03.pdf

Like I said I am not completely sure, it was kindof a quick last second glance back that I did and I saw the colors of king cobra and my mom said it was pieces of a coaster so I assume that is what it was, but your right I am not sure and no one else has confirmed.

Minors just aren't allowed more than 5 consecutive hours, now that does make shifts a little more complicated with breaks and all, but they can work all night as long as it isn't on a school night which Fri. and Sat. isn't. It is the major minors that have all the rules on them no more than 5 hours consecutively, 8 hours in a day and then the rediculous ones like no highlighters, sissors, and no more than 3ft off the ground that are annoying. Sorry no source but I have a paper KI gave me of all the rules.

Well I can see where the Beach might appear to be under some pressure, but the GWL doesn't allow people without rooms in the indoor or outdoor waterpark, so I can't imagine people would pay for a room for one night when you can buy the whole family season passes to the beach, and I would imagine still have money. Kindof along the same note...the life guards around here ought to be getting paid highly considering the extremely high demand for a town like Mason. There is 1. GWL 2. Boomerang Bay 3.Mason Community Center 4.Mason Municiple Center 5. Beach Thats a lot of lifeguards

So I was turing right from Kings Mill to Kings Island drive today and my mom commented that there was lots of pieces of a roller coaster on a truck, now I was driving so I could only glance back quickly, but I am like 90% sure that I saw remains of the King Cobra leaving the park. Anybody else got confirmation.

well with so much talk of games here is what I do with a mic, I usually, if it is a slow day, I spend my time out of the game with a prize asking people to play and when no one is around going through my normal pitch. When asking people I usually ask them flat up if they would like to play _____ . If they say no I tell them to have have a nice day. While it maybe not all that effective it shows effort, and does get more to play, and i am more approachable to guests with any questions or complaints. I have asked many many people to play and not many seemed ticked off. I do call some people out on what they where just to have fun like if you are wearing a bengals jersey and I have bengals football, I may say "You want a football to match that jersey" or maybe just "Who-dey" or if it is a chad jersey "we have ocho cinco here", it usually gets the guest to smile therefore bettering their park experience. And in no way would I ever try to interrept a guest on a cell phone, but I have done it by accident before. Just trying to do my job, of which I am very proud of. Hope to see you in the park gamesguy08

Sorry my bad

Isn't Williamsport your talking about where the Little League World series is held. I have never been there but I have seen it many times on TV, some towns are supposed to be rural and olden times like Williamsport, it gives it a special atmosphere.

And what to replace it with if it is removed? There is not a lot of things that could be put there because of the terrain.

Sorry a little off topic but have we found out if the parade will be coming back yet?

Oh ok that makes sense, some of PKD's FOF was at Carowinds? wow if that is true I am kindof suprised

Didn't kinzel say that he would honor the plans of Paramount, and this certainly couldn't have been their plan? But that was a while ago I think, just throwing that back out there

oh the games maybe I will see some of my friends it it. is there a re-run maybe

I would have been in rides but I couldn't I was 15 and i loved games so much I had to go back to games

what day did you guys flyover? not an operating day because of cones in employee entrance, and before last weekend becasue all prizes are up in games. Also I like pic 71 you can see all the layers of SOB well http://photos.pkicentral.com/displayimage....=168&pos=70

^ come on man! ha just kidding ya, it is like walking down international street without the fountains going just somthing is missing
