  1. I wonder if The Crypt's exit pathway will become the WWC exit pathway.
  2. Do you guys like to play fĂștbol?
  3. Its all for the game; the glory of the game!
  4. I don't think switch backs would be necessary with the new WWC line. It's shorter, but the section of the line that we should expect to lose.. personally, I've never seen the line get that far; even on busy days.
  5. Im down with this change. Open up new photo spots for DB's drop Since the box no longer is accessible[emoji14]
  6. I agree. Go while you can. They should have 2 awesome coasters next year and 2 other good coasters to tag along with. I can't say much about the atmosphere and cleanliness of the park since I havent been there since '08. Go. It might not be around for long.
  7. Apparently not RMC. http://www.themeparkreview.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=1635906
  8. Cedar Point IS land locked. They are not out of land though. It's surrounded by water by virtually all fronts.
  9. It looks fine. Feels a little sparse for whatever reason, supports wise, but I think it's more the area making it look really bad. Maybe if the supports were repainted? And NOT RED.
  10. fansofkientertainment.com used to be one. It has since been unused and I believe closed because I cannot access a site under its address. When it was up it would review the KI shows and look at the individual performers. (Even write about the shows in anticipation before they opened up) There is still a Fans of KI Entertainment Facebook page but not as extensively updated as the website once was, even a little bit. https://www.facebook.com/fansofkientertainment/timeline
  11. I think itd be best to judge whatever replaces Cirque, on its own standards.. unless it's of a similar type of show.
  12. Thought it'd be worth a chuckle hehe. I actually DID hear about a tour happening once before they actually did it. All you had to do was show up before 4pm 2pm I think it was, and show that you follow Kings Island on Twitter.. I misjudged my driving time and arrived at the rendezvous 3 4 minutes late or so.. Even SAFELY jogged to the back of the park. Recently was going through my old computer's photos and came across the picture I got of the tour group that I intended to be a part of. XD I got to, soon after, ride The Beast and watch as I passed them during my 5 minute adventure. xo Nov 25th, 2013 ... maybe. My camera may be wrong. --- Update- it was June 21, 2013 I know because I favorited that tweet https://twitter.com/KingsIslandPR/status/348067821244260352
  13. Minimum wage is $8.10 in Ohio for 2016 (and 2015 as well) in 1983 that had the same buying power as $3.40 -- to be in reference to the 1983 $2.30 minimum wage - (http://www.taxpolicycenter.org/taxfacts/content/PDF/state_min_wage.pdf) http://data.bls.gov/cgi-bin/cpicalc.pl?cost1=8.10&year1=2015&year2=1983
  14. Just goes to show that just because you have the "world's greatest" doesn't mean you are safe from termination. You hear that NY coffee shop??
  15. It's all about working hard to make people happy. Pay should never matter. Just because you pay someone $100,000 a year doesn't mean they will do good. I think that is relative. If the current norm for first jobs is minimum wage and Kings Island, despite such a situation might offer maybe a dollar above minimum or something similar, many employees will appreciate their job a little more. Exceptions exist nearly everywhere, unfortunately, and fortunately. That last part was worded very carefully.. almost making it moot. - Good work isn't a bad way to get a good work environment/ treatment either, I've found.
  16. I rode this year and I found Legend to be as smooth as The Beast. Which, in my opinion, nowadays, is smooth. The harshest thing about the legend is having to brace for what feels like eternal left side laterals! Hehe Edit- and by this year... i mean last year..
  17. We ought to keep more careful records of stuff this interesting, that seems to have gone forgotten! Thanks for the finds! I always wanted to know what it looked like inside. I'm sure it was pretty cool!
  18. Unless they made these things water proof.. doubtful, but.. which brings me to question. If it's sprinkling, and a coaster hasn't needed to be shut down, does that mean VR will be postponed until the weather becomes less wet?
  19. Maybe some carriers have deals where they pay one price regardless of it rising or falling? I wouldn't have a slightest clue
  20. Oh don't remind me of that coaster's fallen theming, please. The water canons... why get-- the.. water.. it added so much.
  21. Because they wouldnt wanna invest enough to include it as a staple experience. I think most people will enjoy it once or twice.. and then never touch it again. Unless some deal or discount is given to pass holders & employees? We could all probably assume it won't be the most wallet friendly purchase to make every visit.
  22. They were too preoccupied figuring out a way to reduce maitenence from the physical wear of The Beast of a machine. Their solution was not praised.
  23. I don't see any vacant lots opposite side of Kings Island Dr. I see one off Kings Mills Rd. within Courseview Dr. Is that what you are referring to?
  24. And EA continues to "disappoint" consumers (won't even call them fans) with their latest atrocity, Star Wars Battlefront EA.
