Kings Island's 5@5 Q&A Thread
Wow, he seems kind of bitter.

The Son of Beast Discussion Thread
There's a point where they'll have to cut their losses and remove it. That's inevitable. The question if if they feel that they've reached that point yet.

Cashless System Coming To Waldameer
I'd love to see a system like this come to KI for food, games, and merchandise. It could easily be integrated into the season passes (they could have a magnetic strip and barcode, just like the associate IDs. They could even recycle that design!), and I have a feeling that per-cap spending would increase quite a bit.

"Planet Snoopy" Replacement
It'd be really cool if Cedar Fair took the whole park and themed it to the magic of movies... oh, wait...

Sigh. Some people just don't learn.- Calm Thunder
While is is a boring track, they must make money on it if they are continuing to staff it (don't they usually have 3 associates there?).- Quick question
Does anyone remember if Coney Skyline has the full menu that I-Street Skyline has (salads, desserts), or does it just have the chili/cheese/onion/bean assembly items? Thanks!- Kings Island's 5@5 Q&A Thread
Here's an idea: they could stop answering questions about it...- Planet Snoopy Ride Names Announced!
Invertigo is one of the less sucky names... I wish, in PS, they had gone with less character namesake rides- like Lolli Swing at CP, and Character Carousel at KI. Tied into the theme, but not named after a character. (that would avoid multiple "Linus" rides)- "Planet Snoopy" Replacement
I'd go with a Kings Island Jr. theme (Kids Island?). It's basically free, and it doesn't rely on a franchise that kids aren't familiar with.- Geauga Lake Has No New Offers for Land
SFMM and SFGAdv are SF's flagships IIRC. (I think CP and Knott's are CF's?)- Geauga Lake Has No New Offers for Land
Would you create more competition for two of your own major parks by selling a park to your competitors? No? Exactly. While I disagree with their action from an enthusiast standpoint, I have to agree with it from a business standpoint. Many of the CF parks benefited from GL's closing, and CP has less competition.- Disney Announces "Premier Passport"
I guess it's a good idea if one were to visit both parks. It would be wise for them to include Extra Magic Hour (it's like KI's DB/Beast ERT) for those passholders, as a bonus for people who won't be visiting both resorts.- Kings Island's 5@5 Q&A Thread
And the Diamondback vehicle! (visible from the Eiffel Tower last year...)- Kings Island's 5@5 Q&A Thread
So, is that why their legal address (it's on my work permit) is 6300 Kings Island Dr, Kings Island, OH?- 4 Coasters in Planet Snoopy?
I'd rather have that than Lucy's Crappie Cabbie.- 4 Coasters in Planet Snoopy?
How does Woodstock Express not fit it?- 4 Coasters in Planet Snoopy?
However, that breaks the pictures. The PS pictures still work on PKI.com.- Flight of Fear: Lights On or Off?
I would prefer it with different colored lights... green would really add to the theme (and they could dim them a bit)- Charlie Brown & The Haunted House?
I wonder if any of the Phantom Theater sets weren't actually removed from the ride area... Disney has been known to do that.- Extreme Drop
It is meant to be... there... so that you can't slip out under the restraint. This is especially true for, for example, Moser Drop Towers. It would be incredibly easy to slip under the restraint if that bump wasn't there.- Kings Island's 5@5 Q&A Thread
They could have just the predrop area showing on the map, have it translucent, and have a note underneath that says "Son of Beast will not operate for the 2010 season." It still could be used as a point of reference for guests, but it would be obvious that it isn't operating.- Kings Island's 5@5 Q&A Thread
IIRC, we were told that we were not receiving new attractions as part of our retheme when it was announced.- Theme Park Jobs...
$10 says that she would be offended if I told her that all journalists were sleazy liars who would exaggerate anything just to get readers. Yes, the amusement park industry does have a few bad apples... but doesn't any industry? - Mason: No Admissions Tax.... For Now
