Wow, that is an awesome photo. It is amazing how far you can see.

I really enjoy this website and the forums. I ask one question and I get helpful answer after helpful answer, even if I feel the question is stupid. In fact I am so impressed that I have convinced 3 of my friends from another forum to join here.

Hence the whole point of this thread. Kind of like a pep rally before the big game. Now GET EXCITED PEOPLE!!

So either look for a dark silver Sebring sedan with a smoke license plate cover, euro antenna, and loud exhaust.. or a white Beretta with tinted windows and obnoxiously loud exhaust.

10 days until the KIC par-tay 87 days until Diamondback is unleashed on the park we all know and love

If (God forbid) something happens to my car, I'll steal my brother's car. Or I'll get a ride if I have to. I will be there.

Just the answer I was looking for. This is my first KIC event so I want to make sure I don't miss ANYTHING.

I have no idea where those are.

Yes. MF's height requirement was previously 52". Now you only have to be 48" tall to ride, due to the modification to the safety restraints.

I found almost a dollar in change in Vortex's very front seat one day last year, and another quarter on Beast.. see, you CAN make money riding coasters!

I wasn't too happy one day when I went this summer and there were bees EVERYWHERE.. in the queues, on the rides, in the midway, in the trees.. it was terrible. To make matters worse, the trash cans were full so the bees were swarming in them. I spent my whole day trying not to get stung.

Absolutely!

I used to be afraid of heights, and used to have a paralyzing fear of tornadoes, and have gotten over both.. but I just can't deal with spiders.

*shudder* That is one thing I don't like about CP. Spiders EVERYWHERE in the summer. Dragster, Milly, Wicked Twister, Magnum, I'd look up to see quarter-sized (or bigger) spiders swinging from the roof. I'm afraid of very few things, and I have tried my best to get over my fear of them. I've tried to watch them build webs (got freaked out), I've tried to learn about them (got freaked out), and I've even petted a tarantula (gave me nightmares). I really, honestly hate those things.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!! I HATE YOU CORY!!!!!!!

SHUT. UP. (oh and be nice to kayitee.. she's pretty much my bff. VERY sweet girl.)

KATRINA! yay you joined LOL at the epic bump.. I forgot to mention the showdown with the huge brown spider in the TTD queue

I always use Firefox. What drives me nuts is that the college I go to has been having issues with their website, so assignment submissions are only allowed through Internet Explorer (ugh). My IE is so stupid. I have ad blocker enabled on it, but I still get them. I'll open IE, then it's only a matter of seconds before I get a popup, then the popup refuses to close and I get a system error message.

You want to talk about a wake-up call.. one morning when the gates opened, I went straight for Drop Tower. If that doesn't wake you up, I don't know what will. I either wake up by MF or Maverick when I go to CP. Nothing like a 300 foot, 80 degree drop or an LSM launch to a 95 degree drop to open those eyes.

No sarcasm allowed.. that's MY job! I know I've only been a member here for 5 months, but I already feel like I've known you guys for half my life. It is our deeply embedded passion for roller coasters (and other related rides, objects, environments, and whatever) that brings us together! countdown: 13 more days

Thank you. The sad part is, now that I have a name to match the ride, and I do remember riding it, I'm suddenly kind of bummed that it's gone.

I for one am getting more and more pumped to go down to KI on the 31 for the offseason blues party! I have not seen Kings Island since October 18 of last year, and I can't wait to go down there and see the KI skyline again, and meet everyone on here. This will be my first KIC event, so I can't wait to see what is in store!

Thanks KIfan. I was actually looking at the photo Ryan posted, and trying to figure out what is where in the park now. I'm glad someone remembers that they have photoshop. I am curious. I have a photo of The Vortex taken from the Eiffel Tower, from the same date as my King Cobra photos. In this photo, to the right of Vortex and Beast, is what appears to be a log flume. I'll be darned if I can remember what it was.. could someone kindly help me out?

Epic bump! I was disappointed when I saw no doodles for a while.. I thought you had retired those forever.
