  1. KI - all current except for Little Bill's Giggle Coaster along with King Cobra (THE one defunct coaster I truly do miss.) and Scooby's Ghoster Coaster Americana/Lesourdesville Lake - Serpent On a side note - Has anyone else noticed that there can be NO information found on Avatar? There was nothing on either CoasterFanatics or RCDB that I could find.
  2. Sounds like you had a great time (except for all the Intamin breakdowns). I feel sorry for you with the whole Millie situation, but hey, trimless rides on Magnum?! I wish they would do that for The Beast and Diamondback at Kings Island!
  3. It has a floor, therefore it is not floorless. Compare the cars of Diamondback with those of other B & Ms such as Kraken and Dominator and you'll DEFINITELY see a clear difference.
  4. Look beyond that. Take a look at the group picture of us during The Beast tour in pkiruler102's trip report. That's all the more I'm saying!

  5. Glad you had a good time! Diamondback truly is a GREAT ride. The more I ride it the more it's knocking The Beast out of my top spot.
  6. Sorry about the confusion. Yeah, the trims on The Beast have got to go, especially the ones COMING DOWN THE HILLS! I hadn't been on Flight of Fear for a good 7 or 8 years until last season and didn't remember the MCBR being that powerful. It almost STOPPED the train! Trims like that have also GOT TO GO!
  7. Don't think that's too far off. Kat and I were discussing how The Beast, Son of Beast, and Mean Streak ALL have trims either on or just before the first hill on Sunday. Kat ended by saying, "What company would do that? OH, Cedar Fair!" I sincerely hope they don't put trims on the Force, though. That would absolutely KILL the world's 2nd best steel roller coaster.
  8. Well, If Firehawk would have been running on its ERT you'd have been guaranteed a trimless ride until the final brakes. That's one of the few things I like about all the Vekoma rides in the park - NO TRIMS! Maybe someone from that company understands you, Flyer!
  9. I love you, too, Kitten. I never thought I would have had someone look after me as much as you did on Saturday and you have NO idea how appreciated that is. Angie's just memorable to me because of her high energy and silliness- like the picture. I'm sorry if I offended you or you feel like you were left out.
  10. In reference to the Mystery Machine pics: WOW! Can you say inner child coming out in all of us?! The only thing that would have made this better is if Angie would have been with us for the pics, but I do like your shout out to her on Kat's and Justin's (I think it was Justin's) videos of you and Derrick dancing on I-Street!
  11. You didn't get EVERYONE in those 3 pics! Oh well. At least you got me with my phone out with the train going down the hill!
  12. It was nice to meet up with you again, indianapolisman. It was also a pleasure riding The Vortex with you, Indyguy4KI, and IBEW_Sparky even though seat 5-1 didn't do too much for me! Any time you need someone to hold your camera for you again don't hesitate to ask.
  13. Terpy, you sound like you speak from experience on that one.
  14. It was a pleasure to meet you this weekend, Gator. I had an absolute blast riding Diamondback with you (Was it only twice or more rides than that?). By the way, one of your guesses on the spelling is correct! I wonder which one it is?
  15. Very nice TR. It was a pleasure to meet you even though it was brief!
  16. The last seven times I didn't ask if I could request a seat. However, out of the first five times I rode, I was only denied once and the line did seem VERY long.
  17. I plan on calling the number here soon. I wanted to call in about Diamondback, but I had to study for final exams. Don't worry, you'll get more than just one voicemail this time around!
  18. LOL! So you, Angie! So you (As I found out all Saturday.)! Out of SHEER curiosity, how many 5 Hour Energy drinks do you have per day?
  19. After riding Reptar, Tom puked all over Kittenpooh's shoe!!! Throw rotten fruit at him! Sorry, had to do it But your username is making me want to pull my hair out (Oh the irony...). I've spent most of the day staring at my phone keypad cause of you. LMAO! If you look at my comments and Dustin's pic of all of us at The Beast tour there is a HUGE clue! WOW! I might just change my username to "TomRandomNumbers" or Steph and Ryan's nickname for me after Reptar "Chunks."
  20. Oh boy! I'm surprised that no one's rubbing in the fact that I puked right after I got off of Reptar! It'll make one heck of a bar story one day! By the way, Angie, I couldn't tell you weren't fond of my username! Just kidding!
  21. Don't worry, Angie. I'd rather die a slow painful death than be like some of the snobby ACErs I saw over the weekend. One guy didn't like The Beast because he couldn't fit in it. When Kat asked the same guy what he thought of Diamondback, he said that it was no Magnum. Like I said to the rest of the group when I was with them, "Old rickety Arrow coaster, or brand new B & M? I don't know about that one!".
  22. Alright guys! I know my screen name gets annoying, but the numbers do stand for SOMETHING! Check out my comments for clues if you want to decode the numbers. As I told Justin and the crew on Saturday, pull out your phone and go to town trying to figure it out. I can't tell you guys right out what the meaning of the numbers is because I made my friends figure it out for 2 years. PLUS, there's only 432 possibilities of what it could be so it can't be THAT hard! LOL!
  23. I'm not trying to spoil anything, but it all depends on if I can go to CoasterMania or not. If I can't, that joint celebration sounds like a great idea! I'll still be at KI on my birthday regardless trying to get 24 rides of anything in. KICRWC ALL THE WAY!
  24. *Faints on the floor.* Flyer likes a hill with a trim brake on it?! That's why it's just "not bad." That trim I can almost...ALMOST live with. The mid-course must go! And not a friekin' trimless ride, one at ERT...on anything! Scream!!!!!! Yeah, when you've ridden Diamondback as many times as some of us have you can officially determine that the trim and MCBR kill the otherwise immaculate ride experience on the glorious new ride. I even noticed the trim slowing the ride down considerably when I rode it on RWW.
  25. You guys are NEVER gonna live that down, are you? LOL!
