  1. ^^ That is a more accurate word, yes.
  2. Is the Oktoberfest sign still there?? I don't remember it.
  3. Does anyone wish the rides with soundtracks would have several tracks? I keep hearing that same song in Invertigo lol
  4. I, for one, wish we still had our floral tunnel.
  5. Although, They said that Cedar Point isn't done with coasters so....
  6. I haven't heard the international-themed music yet this year. But I sure do remember it... ah the memories I think the fog drop with the projected skull in Boo Blasters is a detail they should maintain. I think it's the coolest part of the ride, and it seems to randomly be working and other times not.
  7. I hope they don't have to resort to chain-link fences!
  8. I would most definitely hold an opposite opinion. Haha Speaking of which, I love how smooth the retracked portions of The Beast are; the turn out of the second tunnel is so forceful and smooth! But you must just be one of those people that crave aggressive rides then, right?
  9. Indeed. You think perhaps haunt could be vamped up aswell?? EDIT: No pun intended
  10. With Backlot Stunt track in mind... does no one miss the water cannons that used to blast up? Or the "water splash"? I know I miss that a lot. And the fog entering the tunnel. Althought I AM really pleased with the effect used for the bullets. Paramount should've done that when it opened, but I really miss the fire followed up by a sudden attack of water bursting up.
  11. I like how someone says "Oh geeze..." After the question about Son of Beast haha Oh, and why do some consider Pre-fab intamin coasters to NOT be wooden?? I don't understand.
  12. Even with them being as aggressive as they are, they DEFINITELY don't need 5 of them on each side of I street. I've always wondered if I just keep walking straight and just stand still if they step in my way, if one will still take my picture. But it must really suck to have this job, I think I can see a quota being placed on them, that makes the most sense as to why they are the way they are.
  13. Hahahaha, that's golden. ^^and I completely agree with the high capacity notion; Kings Island feels like it is becoming more and more crowded! I honestly think, and I was thinking about this last time I rode FD, they should have pathways go under FD and lead to a new area, Maybe not have anything too complex, but I feel like the walkway right next to FD's unofficial 2nd entrance, is just a great thing to walk by. It just makes the area cool, in a way. And if a new area, or just a new coaster were added that reached towards GWL, then more people would walk passed there. But the realistic truth is that Kings Island has many, many possibilities for new rides and expansions. They probably wouldn't do the FD thing, but I feel like it might add to some life back by FD. And I honestly am a little saddened that DA will receive additions every year. I don't think it's worth the time. My dad and I didn't enjoy it, my little sister was scared of the things and only liked the dig site, and my 11 year old sister was the only one that liked it, but she was still upset that the dinosaurs had timers and that if you were behind people they most likely wouldn't do anything for you. Maybe I'm bashing but, I still really love KI as a whole, that's just my two cents
  14. Yeah, my girlfriend is not getting on that lol I surely will though! Why are the seats made to go forward and backward, it seems like given the right day, someone is going to bust their knee.
  15. Oh okay, is that why the calendar has closed as a gray square instead of no coloration at all? I don't mind a company buy out, I was just curious.
  16. I'm looking at the webcams, and it seems like there are some general public there out in front of WindSeeker. I saw a family with a stroller earlier too. And I think they may be testing it today or tomorrow. Anyone know who the people are though? and looking at Fox19's sky cam... it seems as though people are all over the park for some reason. I thought Kings Island was closed. And I saw some rides running in the time lapse... I'm very confused, and eager to go down there. lol
  17. Ugh.... the POV is gone....
  18. Never even heard of this town, but from the description, it seemed like a great place to live prior to the murder. I hope they catch this guy, I hate the fact that someone can kill another unsuspecting human being, and not get anything their way.
  19. ^ Well that's good I guess, I figured they'd be making the first turn a bit wider, or at least make it gradually go up so it loses speed, then a shorter air hill after that so the rest of the ride doesn't suffer too badly. Intamin screwed up on Pilgrim's Plunge as well. I was pretty disappointed with my experience on it. Sure you get wet, but- nevermind, I guess I was just expecting too much.
  20. I subtracted from 2011, before I read the articles. (tittle)
  21. *clears throat* ahem.... "NOOooooo!" Oh well, holding a record for 32 years isn't too bad.
  22. It seems whenever people complain about stand-ups, they don't know how to ride it, or they simply don't like the feeling of extra force on your legs. I personally love stand-ups. I wish there were more around, and I wish I would've gotten to ride King Cobra. I am a big fan on Mantis, it may not have the hang time chang had on the first loop and the floater on the section under the MCBR, which was really fun to get while standing, but Mantis has a more aggressive feel and makes it more exciting. I'd say Chang is better, but not by much. Iron Dragon I like too. Yes it's really tame, and before I rode I was laughing at people that would be having a good time on it, while I was in line for TTD. But I ended up riding twice, and it was pretty fun. And I liked how the line on it wasn't really long. (at least when I went) I like Flight Deck better, but Iron Dragon has like a nice easy, yet fun ride at the beginning. Then the second part, is really quite fun with the fog and the more aggressive turns. (aggressive used loosely) I would be sad to see it go, but it wouldn't be devastating.
  23. Off topic, but if someone's so arrogant as to not click on a link, just because they don't like the site, then maybe they don't need to see it. On topic: with the area that WindSeeker is going, I think it'll bring more people back there, and maybe more vending machines will be used (not by me though) And maybe there will be a stand for frozen lemonade, dip-n-dots etc.
  24. Usually a female reference is used when addressing boats, countries, and I guess coasters too. lol You think the supports are getting a paint job too?
  25. Yeah, Flight of Fear, and Firehawk both have really aggressive stops... I don't think you could help Firehawk's with it being so short. But yeah it'd be nice, but I don't find it all that important from a guest's POV.
