I made your gf not ride that time so she would not ugly up the picture. This, by your own definition, is obviously trolling. As seen here:

Well we do agree. What you said & attempted to portray was bogus.Don't you remember that the tickets were only offered not accepted? Only after tickets are accepted is information processed. Anything else you would like to add after the fact to your story?

Excellent!My cousin works in the GR office where they keep a list of such promotional giveaways & why they were given out. A quick phone call will confirm your stacking allegation. Since we know you were at the park after 6:00pm, finding the representative that helped you will be quite easy. I do have to ask, why did you fail to mention the front of the line passes from the beginning? My cousin got back to me with some interesting & non-incriminating information.First being: front of line passes are not handed out for guests upset with long wait times. If they did hand out passes for such things, everyone would have these passes. Front of line passes have been handed out of mechanical issues or guest complaints with employees. Next would be: did DB stack like the OP suggested? If the line reached Beast, and the stacking was every train for 2 hours, the wait would have been approximately 3.5 hours as a full queue is approximately 2 hours. Given the OP had a 2 hour wait, it is impossible that every train, except two, was stacking. The intervals suggested by the OP would be less than half capacity & the red flags raised would have not only been immense, but solved within a short amount of time- that is why rides have supervisors. Their job is to be sure all safety procedures are followed then to keep thee lines moving at a brisk pace. Not to mention- there is no way ride ops would allow such stacking to occur for that extended amount of time. First and foremost they want all guests to be safe, but they also want to move guests along as fast as possible. Moving people safely & quickly is their badge of honor they take an immense amount of pride in. Last: that particular day was one of the busiest so far in 2013. She suggested to check out: visitkingsisland.com to see what days are usually not that busy. Special event dates are usually very busy. Now that this has been cleared up, we can now move forward with the typical enthusiast nonsense.

Yo Kid, Actually it does matter what day it was. Even from your first post, you had hoped the crowd had thinned out, only to find out your wish was terribly inaccurate and extremely misguided. Trip reports from other enthusiast sites noted how insanely busy it was that day. Many even questioned having this type of promotion on a weekend. Ironically, nobody complained about the supposed stacking on KI's only B & M coaster. Don't blame the ride ops for your poor decision. It makes you sound petty to complain about the park crowd when it was your bad decision to begin with. Bro, Again, if there was a 4 hour wait that would have been fine, stacking everytime except twice in two hours is again, unacceptable. Kid-Blaming ride ops for your bad decision is deflecting the true issue. What did guest relations tell you when you brought it to their attention? Clearly you are not reading bro. Again, I am not blaming a packed park on my complaint of db stacking every time but twice in two hrs. Youngstud thinks your either trying to start a argument or just in denial. Clearly you want to blame everyone except yourself for a bad decision. It's not arguing, I simply believe you are exaggerating the truth because it happens to be a B & M coaster which you have proclaimed your dislike on numerous occasions (I'm actually shocked you even graced DB with your presence) and a poor decision for going on a day that has historically been extremely busy. Speaking of not reading: how did your conversation with guest relations go again?

Some just get way too butt hurt when others disagree with their personal view, then publicly cry about it. This is a KI park forum. There is no serious Earth-shattering decisions made here. I personally love having fun with some (even poking fun at myself), but never let it get serious enough where I am actually mad. Those who choose to get emotionally mad at this stuff will certainly have (if it's not difficult already) a difficult time in the real World. People will purposely push your buttons just to get an emotional reaction because at that point you are no longer actually using intelligent reasoning but are letting your emotions take over. If it's happening here, you know it must be happening in your personal life.

I agree, you do not understand as the goal for parks is to have happy guests, not just happy enthusiasts.When waiting an extended amount if time for a ride on a busy day (let's use bring a friend day as a prime example) the enthusiast knee-jerk reaction is to blame ride ops for not hustling as opposed to blaming the enthusiast's own decision for going to a park on an obvious busy day. That said: A true comparison between two parks' ride crew dispatch times can only be achieved with the same exact ride located between the two parks-which does not exist. Comparing DB and Raptor would be unfair due to Raptor's ride crew being able to access the restraints with extreme ease. Comparing DB & MF is also unfair due to guests on MF not being allowed to bring loose articles onto the ride platform.

So it's Kinzel's fault of TTD's early issues, not Intamin?In turn you are now giving credit to other manufacturers that would not take on a project like TTD and falling victim to a park's virtual impossible demands. It's nice to see you are now seeing the light.

Why was SoB removed?- Facebook Comments
The policy states you cannot bring outside food and beverages into the park! Why can't people understand that? And you can get drinks all around the park! This is the same person who will then blame the park for not having security because their personal belongings were taken by thieves. Just think: this lady is all concerned about food & water. They obviously must have a cooler. Why not just keep it in the car like other thrifty park guests? - Starting to Decode 2014
