Improve one coaster without altering the layout
PKIDelirium replied to SonofBaconator's topic in KI Polls
Yeah, some proper theming for the queue and entrance would be nice, and I wouldn't mind some more landscaping around the pool including the giant rocks inside the pool that were on the original renderings. There's also a lot of empty grass all around the pool, brake run, and transfer track area that could be filled in with trees between the ride safety fence and the midway. A tunnel for the first drop would be interesting, and could be tied into the over Miami River theme with, say, a mine tunnel appearance. -
It looks like they got everything completed, but I guess better views will have to wait for the train to be running for WinterFest.

Camp Snoopy Construction Updates
PKIDelirium replied to Hawaiian Coasters 325's topic in Kings Island
Personally I would have preferred the old amphitheater be removed instead of repurposed, purely for aesthetic reasons. Paint it however you want, it's still the Nickelodeon Theater and building the playground area from scratch would have allowed more creativity in the layout, and maybe left a treeline dividing the flume from SSBR.- 426 replies

Any overall photos of the Diamondback paint lately? Having the train closed during Haunt season is a bummer for that.

Starbucks has always had good hot choc at KI.

New B&M coming to BGT
PKIDelirium replied to SonofBaconator's topic in Other Amusement Parks & Industry News
Different manufacturers but KI has a suspended swinging, inverted boomerang, family invert, and full scale B&M invert. So, your point? We also have a high thrill launch coaster and a more family launch coaster by the same manufacturer. -

I wonder if the swinging part is unclear wording? The render image looks exactly like the stock Family Invert train. -
Camp Snoopy Construction Updates

Showplace as it was before Off The Rails was just part of the experience. Possible rain-outs, freezing cold benches during Haunt, that's just Showplace for you. Take the bike stuff out and use standing-viewing for it in Action Zone, put the benches that were taken out back in to restore to full seating, clean up the stage and get back to using it for the main season musicals and main Haunt show. -

I see no need to remove it without a planned replacement, unless maintenance costs are getting out of control. -
New Possible Attraction in Area 72 With Orion
PKIDelirium replied to ThrillKingsFitzy's topic in Rumors
Screamin Swing in AZ? Another ride to keep it the "no structure under your feet zone" with the exception of Congo. -

Oh, so it is. Whoops. -
New Possible Attraction in Area 72 With Orion
PKIDelirium replied to ThrillKingsFitzy's topic in Rumors
Cedar Point's is in Frontiertown and KI could easily find a way to tie one into the Miami River overall story. -

New Possible Attraction in Area 72 With Orion
PKIDelirium replied to ThrillKingsFitzy's topic in Rumors
That's something I'd use with a Rivertown theme in the empty plot behind Showplace, next to Diamondback, to be an "entrance piece" for the area. Super Air Race and NebulaZ would both really fit the Area 72 theme. -

PKIDelirium replied to ThrillKingsFitzy's topic in Rumors
There's plenty of room to add a couple flats back there, like Zamperla's Super Air Race and NebulaZ with space themes. -

PKIDelirium replied to MrSourNinja's topic in Coming Attractions
Vortex's removal was announced at a late hour simply by means of a notice to local media. -

The circle looks like it could be the start of a foundation for the outdoor "grassy hill" part of the overall playground as seen in the renderings. The location is just about spot on. -
The back of the park is eerie in such situations. I've been among, if not the last to leave The Beast plaza numerous times and routed around through Rivertown because the direct path to the Eiffel Tower had already been cleared and guarded for the night, and especially before Mystic Timbers the area where the station and queue are now was really creepy because of the old worn-down funnel cake building and patio with no lights on.

Canada's Wonderland Ride stuck upside down
PKIDelirium replied to disco2000's topic in Other Amusement Parks & Industry News
Drop Tower would be unnerving for sure because of how open the vehicle is, but WindSeeker wouldn't be so bad. It also has emergency magnetic brakes on the tower in case of a problem with the cables. I'd be uneasy about using the evac platform system on WindSeeker but fortunately that mostly exists because of an early incident at Knott's and hasn't been needed at any of the other parks. -
Emphasize the "mature audiences" part more, and maybe ditch the no-boo necklaces. If it means doing the KD method of separate ticket but passes are still good, I'd be all for it.

And so can anyone, including fake accounts. I know the corporate-level checkmarks are gold, but how many people will notice anything more than the typical blue-check on a very close fake?

A lot of the Haunt tombstones and whatnot are quite old now, although I'm surprised to see the Area 72 van peeling like that.

On the Haunt Code of Conduct page, they're going the limited see-through bag route. https://www.visitkingsisland.com/events/haunt/conduct-policy-and-guidelines

Expanding the Graveyard underneath Banshee.
PKIDelirium replied to Tr0y's topic in Coming Attractions
The ones with a close line of sight to Adventure Port around the first drop area could be relocated. -
Okay, two possibilities here. One, this is a photo from before they finished painting this part of the ride in April. Two, that new paint isn't doing so well on the track, because the rails are down to bare steel through the pool and climb, and looks faded on the climb.
