"just 'cause you don't enjoy it doesn't mean it should be removed."

Whats the funniest rumor youv'e ever heard?
i am not sure if this is a rumor but since i have never read anything about it i'm guessing that it is. one day soon after ttd was opened they were running test runs over and over to see if it was running properly and it did and when they opened it up to the public that day the first train sent out got up to the top of the top hat and the train split and the first three cars made it over then the last two cars and the fake engine rolled backwards down the top hat

Are the Smurfs responsible for the removal of the enchanted voyage?
Seriously. How often do you hear people raving about how much they love the banana splits, lol. The enchanted voyage left because smurfs were more popular at the time. The Smurfs left because the park wanted to remove the water powered boat ride and replace it with a haunted theater. Phantom Theater left because scooby doo was more popular. Eventually scooby doo will be replaced by... my dad always talks about banana splits. and i hope the haunted castle leaves soon just because whenever i rode it last year the ride would shut down mid-corse and a seiren would sound.

Vortex
one way this is ture is that retraints on majority of roller coasters are locked into place with a locking claw not hydrolic fluid

How do you feel about the new ride names?
then how about "the four to fear"?
-
Vortex
my question is why did the train tip where it did? i could see it tipping over where they just came out of a turn, but not a loop

Could Son of Beast Accident Been Avoided?

Vortex
Not buckling up on a ride is VERY dangerous. and that is why everyone who rode The Beast,before they added seat belts died or was seriously hurt same with Vortex,The Racers, and Son of Beast o.k. maybe Son of Beast wasn't the best example

How do you feel about the new ride names?

How do you feel about the new ride names?
well it is a great name for top gun beings majority of the time you are in the train you are in the station
-
New Ride Names now Official
Maybe because Congo Falls doesn't directly refer to the movie Congo. Congo is not only a movie, but it's a place! Most people do not realize that Congo was a movie. same with drop zone. i didn't know that was a paramount movie until it was pointed out to me in an earlier forum

How do you feel about the new ride names?
i really like the crypt just because it sorta fits in with the themeing from tomb raider backlot is o.k.(i'm just glad my mini's arn't leaving) flight deck just sounds stupid. i think a monkey could have came up with a better name Invertigo doesn't make since to me they shouldn't have mixed inversion with vertigo

Post your favorite pic of 2007
never mind http://i246.photobucket.com/albums/gg96/co...pg?t=1198292201 this is the only good picture i took of an amusment park this year Were you at a place with like a light house and stuff when you took this? Because that picture looks very simaler to a picture that I took a while back from when we took a trip to CP. if you are talking about a place with a short and fat light house then yes I want to say he's talking about the Marblehead lighthouse, correct? i don't know what the place was called. i was just mad that i was that close to Cedar Point and didn't get to go there that day.

The Beast: Why Wasn't It Stripped
really? because it looks like they just filled in the writing with a lighter color stone. and the lighter color is only where the writing was
-
The Beast: Why Wasn't It Stripped
Not to mention they also have to remove that inlaid stone tile thingy on International Street that says "Paramount's Kings Island Welcomes American Coaster Enthusiasts" or something like that. It's in front of the Girl Space and Lotsapalooza stores, but I don't know the exact term for what it's called. or they could just do like they did in the area that had the paramount movies inlaid in the walkway, just fill in where it says paramount

The Beast: Why Wasn't It Stripped
i totally agree with your statement. we cannot allow safety devices to be ignored for the sake of an award. i would hope an organization like ace would take a fresh look at the message they're sending. i understand what you are saying but i also can see ace's view like moderonizing a roller coaster(such as adding seat belts) takes away from the classicness so i am on both sides
