Impossible for a launched 4D coaster it would hurt every one on the ride, it's structurely unstable i think a regular 4D would be nice. :cowboy: A launched 4D is more than possible. S&S and Arrow are already working on one with lighter 4D trains. The track is also different with only one guiderail in between the two other rails. Where did you get that it's unstable? I bet you don't know a thing about stability with roller coasters. I'm not saying that PKI will get a launched 4D, but I think it's possible for them to get a regular 4D. PKI was supposed to get the first ArrowBatic but that deal fell through. Now I think it's time for PKI to get the second 4D. Isn't the ArrowBatic the type of coaster with the train sitting between rails which parallel to the sides of the train? For those of you who don't know what I'm talking about, it kind of looked like a little airplane in which the two rails of the track would go through the "wings" of the plane. The point of the design, besides being original, was so it could easily do barrel rolls at any point during the course of the ride. From what I understand, they scrapped the idea since they couldn't find a way to load and unload people. ArrowOwnzU, if you have more info on this, you're more than welcome to start a thread in the Discussion section. Thanks, Ryan

I don't know how long LaRasa's has been the official pizza of PKI, but it hasn't been forever. If you watch the episode of the Brady Bunch which they're at KI, they walk past what we know as Rivertown LaRosa's, and it just says "Pizza". Of course, this could have been changed just for the filming due to legal technecalities, but I kind of doubt that. Reguardless, the PKI deal was what launched LaRosa's into its level of popularity, so you may guess that PKI got a sweet deal out of it. At that, if people keep buying it, they'll keep selling it.

Yes, Jeff did he said there will be major upgrades to some rides I have heard that a lot of flats are getting major rehab done, but this might be a clue toward TRTR v.2

Well, as you know, Arrow went under and was bought out by S&S. I wouldn't doubt it if PKI got some kind of version of a 4D since the prototype has already been built and they can learn from the mistakes of the past. I'm not sure about a 4d being launched. I've never heard that before, but I guess they could mix Arrow's 4D technology and S&S Air Launch technology and make something amazing. **Moving topic to Battle Room, it will have a better home there.

First of all, I love the username! Second of all, ANY Arrow is too good of an Arrow to take away.

Interesting, very interesting. I especially liked the brochure for the Arrow flumes from the 1970s.

That was wrong on Nov 2nd, and it's still wrong now.

I hear opening day is a possibility. I think opening day is on a Friday, if you guys want to meet that evening then we can put that on the table once the date rolls closer.

Delirium, hands down.

Actually, what I hear a lot is: "Attention guests, this ride is experienceing technical difficulties, it will reopen as soon as it is deemed safe for your enjoyment."

I can only speak for myself, but I think it's a great idea! I'm in. Here are a few that I hear from a frequent guests' perspective: "Hey, don't you want to win your girlfriend one of these stuffed animals?? Oh, come on! Look how easy it is! I know you can do it! Come on! Why are you walking away?" "Hey, do you really work for Arrow?" I get that about 10 times a day whenever I wear my Arrow Dynamics polo shirt. "Welcome back riders. We hope you enjoyed your ride." "Attention ladies and gentelmen, in just 15 minutes Paramount's Kings Island will present 'A Fireworks Spectacular'" ::Someone cuts into a conversation:: "Actually, the King Cobra IS still here. I assure you, it's still in the park!" ~That one's for you, CoasterGuy "This ride is nothing like Cedar Point's..." I hate those guests. "Where's Top Gun?" "...the Eiffel Tower is approximately 1/3 of the size of the actual Eiffel Tower located in Paris, France. [bad joke] [bad Joke] [bad Joke] Please exit to your left and you are welcome to stay on the observation level as long as you would like." "Oh, my God! It almost goes vertical!" That was my ex girlfriend's famous quote after seeing Delirium for the first time. "I heard they're getting a floorless coaster in 2005 that's 680 feet tall and has 115 inversions."

^ I like what that guy has to say, and agree with all of it. I doubt any coasters are on the chopping block in the forseeable future. These rumors get started and ranted about until people start to believe them.

For the pictures that are far away, you can clearly see that digital zoom was used. Also, for all we know, they could have been taken during the tour. Reguardless, I'm sure if there is a problem with the pictures THE PARK will contact PKIC and we will gladly remove them, other than that, it's not really anyone's position to be the internet police.

We'll have to weigh this idea a little bit before we take any action. Our goal for the past few months has been to aim all conversations in the direction of PKI. Having threads about Scooby Doo and Lara Croft, in my opinion, is too loosely related to the park for this site. Of course, that is simply my opinion and there are currently four staff members, so take that for what it's worth. I'd have to warn you that if we added another forum, chances are that we'd delete one too, which would probably be "discussion".

Wouldn't doubt seeing one near PKI but not in PKI.

It hard for anyone to say exactly when we'll be at the park since te season is so far off. If you would like, remind us a few weeks beforehand and we'll try to get some people up there to meet you.

Simply not possible. I refuse to accept the contemptible bulge of fecal matter that is pouring out of your gargantuanly abhorrent statement. Testify, brother!

mmmm... I love cheerleaders Anyway, my guess is that eventually they'll sell the rights to the venue and whoever buys them will gut it and rehab it.

Actually, I see it as a good opportunity for everyone to meet eachother. I pray to god that it doesn't turn into a bunch of bitterness between the sites. Why don't we consider doing this once the season starts? We just have to remember that we're all FRIENDS with a COMMON INTEREST and that we'd be meeting for a GAME not a fight.

People submit editorials every once in a while, but not many of them are posted. It was totally our fault since we never really told you guys what we were looking for. If anyone submits an editorial, feel free to contact the staff and we'll try to get you in good working order so it can be up and you can be made famous. Thanks, Ryan

I would like to publicly thank everyone for being there! I also have to thank Italian Chef, not only for organizing the event, but for giving me a great gift for my birthday and supplying a great cake! It was an honor to spend part of my 21st with you guys! If it makes you feel any better, that was the only part of my 21st that I remember in my entirety right now. Anyway, a special thanks goes out to Wera for cooking such an awesome buffet and giving me a a gigantic bottle of wine for my B-Day. You rock! I hope we can all get together some time soon!!! Thanks, Ryan

PKIC considers the days of BB updates trade secrets, so I can't exactly tell you the date, but it will be soon.

Guys, I owe you all an apology for being unable to attend the BB construction tour. Unfortunately, we had a family emergency and I was kept away from going. Don't fret though, we'll have construction updates rolling in starting this coming week! Stay tuned for my updates. regards, Ryan
