MaxAir destroys Delirium. But I still find Delirium to be an enjoyable ride. I spend so much time in Action Zone that I feel like I insult Kings Island if I go to the park without riding it.

That would be pretty cool to see if Drop Tower was testing.

Keep the photos coming, they are amazing. The photos of the snow capped mountains just take my breath away.

Epic bump.

I'm number 131. Here's hoping I don't get knocked down 61 spots in the next 12 days!

Ash, I took that pic with my old enV. I stood as close to the track as I could (I was over by the 3 point shootout), and zoomed in as closely as I could as the train came by. I'll be getting MUCH better photos this summer with my actual camera instead of my cell phone, though.

You might be a KI addict if you check the Diamondback auction board on your phone while you and another KIC member are driving back from KI.. guilty guilty guilty

Better clarity as always? Was that ending remark really necessary? I was not in any way complaining about the clarity of Ryan's post, which is completely fine. I merely asked a related question that I felt was valid.

It works beautifully on my BlackBerry pearl. I think it's your carrier rather than your phone, but then I've never been a big fan of Verizon. Posted from my BlackBerry mobile device. Facebook, Twitter, and Myspace work beautifully on my VX8700. KICentral comes up as a jumble of disorganized buttons and links that take me nowhere.. I don't get it.

I have this obsession with trying to get the train in just the right spot in my photos.

I think every queue needs a huge, obvious sign that reads "Please do not line jump and/or throw wads of gum at our TVs." KI is a nice park. It is not a trash can, nor is it a hurdle competition. I rarely see those rules enforced and it really bothers me.

Maybe now that Vortex has been repainted, they have also noticed the hundreds of pennies and wads of gum on the little balcony by the station to the right, and all the wads of gum stuck to the TV on the left. ..and somebody's nasty weave stuck in the trees to the right of the loading station (how are you about to wear fake hair on a roller coaster that goes upside down 6 times and think it's going to stay there?).

HA! KIC hasn't worked with the last three phones I've had, one of which was a newly released touch screen, internet capable phone! I gave up. I just wait until I get home to the computer.

I concur. One day it started to rain halfway through my ride on Millennium Force. Everyone started screaming in pain and covering their faces.. raindrops feel more like thumbtacks at 93 mph.

That looks terrific. I don't remember the last time I saw it looking that good.. KI and their attention to detail never ceases to amaze me.

I'm not too sure about rain. I've seen Delirium and SOB running in a downpour, and other rides close because there was a drizzle. I do know that everything in the park will shut down due to lightning, until the storm passes. That's when I duck into a gift shop or restaurant, wait it out, and smile to myself as 2/3 of the crowd runs for the exit.

Is the admission ticket good for only that day at the park, or any day of the season? If it's only good for that day, I want to give my ticket to someone who needs it. If it's good for any day, I'd like to keep it so I can bring a friend another day.

Most riders. I am the world's worst klutz, but I'm willing to give it a shot!

That is great. Vortex was my first real coaster, and to this day I still find it to be an enjoyable ride.

We would NEVER do things like that..

Kat, I love that pic of us! I did indeed have platinum last year. I renewed it online at the special price of $140 in the first week of September. They are taking new photos this year, focusing more on the face instead of taking a photo of the entire upper half of your body. They gave me a new card (likely because of the new pic). There was no hassle involved whatsoever.. I assumed processing was necessary, regardless if the pass is a purchase or a renewal. The procedure doesn't bother me. I only care that my pass works.

I was in the car with violakat when I got the broadtext. I read it out loud and her response was a sarcastic "It's not Diamondback?" and a laugh. I figured KIC was pulling some kind of April Fools joke, but that is actually pretty cool. Funny, but cool.

Oh I'm counting the days, believe me! I was working a ton of Saturdays for a while too, so I went ahead and requested off for opening day, better than just crossing my fingers. I'm so happy that I got it. My bid has been in the same spot for several days, so here's hoping it doesn't turn out like eBay on this one, with everyone's hand hovering over the mouse 1 minute before the auction ends. And yes, I can't wait to ride Drop Tower again. I really miss Slingshot and FOF too.

Count me in!
