It looks like they are positioning the 7th piece right now.

When I was there yesterday for General Knowledge, they have almost every gate open in the back, past Security Post 3. It wouldn't be that hard to trespass..

Flight of Fear and The Beastie hands down.

Nevermind, I now realize what I posted was stupid. Read on.

I love how there are only like a few people excited for this ride, but back when Diamondback was being built everyone was excited. It's a new ride being added to the great Kings Island. Flat ride or not, be happy!

Beat you to it. haha. I hope the move the camera so you can see it better, I beat all of you to it.

Lifting the first piece in place!

It looks like they are putting in some kind of motor?

Does Kings Island even still offer the drink wristbands?

It clearly says before you enter the ride that if you dont want to ride it, you dont have to. They choose to get on the ride. Everytime I got on SoB, I never got injured. It passed mantince tests that day. Hell, I even rode it that day. Nothing that wasn't normal. All of these people are over reacting, probably for insurance claims or settlements.

By the looks of the web cam, I'm pretty sure they will start vertical construction of the actual ride Friday or Saturday.

Disregard this, posted in the wrong topic.

I personally think the big news is either an announcement for a new ride in 2012, or a new movie in Action Theater. http://www.visitking...k/mud/index.cfm Have you seen those photos? I'd have to guess it will probably be a new ride. EDIT: Disregard this post. I didn't take the time to read through every page in the topic.

I think you have a very good point, but you have to think about this. Most of the blue area is the ride maintenance buildings. Also, they still haven't announced where Wind Seekers queue will be, so I think that will take up the yellow square. There really isn't many rides that could take up that red spot..

Time for my two cents. Maybe it is folded like that because it's more compact and doesn't take up as much desk space? Just because pictures like these are almost always staged, doesn't mean this one is. Also, what's with all this complaining? It's a map. Nothing more, nothing less.

If I go, it's cause I have to work.

I'm working Flight of Fear. Now with my processing, I was planning on bringing all the paperwork, my state ID, my social security card, and my birth certificate. Am I missing anything?

Also, do you need to wait to sign all the paper work until your processing it with HR?

Right lol. I thought it was something wrong with my page or something. I was on the page with all the manuals, and I saw the 2011 Rides Guidebook, but it wouldn't let me click on it?

Ohh. Well that makes sense. Thanks.

Can anyone help me find out how to get to the 2011 Rides Guidebook? I've logged in and went to my division home page, but I cant seem to find out where the Guidebook is.

I saw those too. I also saw them over by the Diamondback gift shop.

It wasn't crowded at all yesterday.

You will love Snoopy's Starlight Spectacular. It is amazing. But make sure you look at the Eiffel Tower when you watch it. You will be amazed.

Hey KIC! So I decided to go to Kings Island yesterday, not planing on staying very long because I assumed it'd be packed. Boy was I wrong. It was like a normal Sunday crowds. When I walked into the park, it was about 3:30. I decided to head over to Diamondback. The wait was about 20 minutes, but I decided to head to the SRL instead. Guess what? I was the only one in it! That was quite a surprise. I rode seat 1:3, which happens to be my favorite seat. After I got off, I wanted to get a ride on FoF. So I walked over there. It was about an hour wait, so I just decided that I'll come back later. I headed over to Blue Racer and rode that two times with out getting off. I walked back to Diamondback, and rode two times within 5 minutes thanks to the SRL. I was starting to get a little hungry, so I went and got some Skyline. 1 Cheese coney was 4.18 with tax. That's just robbery. I went to Drop Tower. Only had a 20 minute wait. I went back to Diamondback, where I meet up with a couple of my friends. We rode DB, then headed over to FoF. We decided to wait the hour wait. Once we got off, it was about 8. My friend wanted to see the light show. So we went to Racer, AE, and then to flight Deck. Man, it seems like every single year, Flight Deck gets more and more forceful. Once we got off Flight Deck, we headed over to the Eiffel Tower. I gotta say, the light show is one of the best things the park has done in a LONG time. I was truly amazed with how the lights on the Eiffel Tower moved with the music. EVERYTHING was in sync. It was epic. It was about 9:50. We decided to get a night ride on The Beast. We got in line, and they were closed down for the fireworks. We waited, and waited, and waited. When 10:20 came around, and the fireworks still didn't go off, every one was getting pretty mad. At about 10:30, they opened it back up. I was kind of disappointed. No Saturday night fireworks? We waited about 20 minutes, and were on the ride. The last train of the night in the very back. It will never get old. So, my first day at the park this year, it was pretty great. I can tell KI really has gotten better since last year.
