I’m a bit surprised that even after investing in Camp Snoopy that KI’s ranking for Best Kids Area dropped to 3.
As much as it hurts to say I can't disagree with it's drop. We do have a great kids area, but you also have to convince people why it's the best kids area. That's why there are marketing and comms departments. I realize some is controlled by Charlotte, but still.

Ghost Hunters did a episode at Kings Island?
Absolutely a terrible episode in my opinion.

I love these rides and am happy more parks are getting them.
I really wish KI would get one.I would love for KI to have one
Here is what this cliff looks like. I took this when I was there in July. This is one of the highest points in the park.

Rode Superman 3 times today at SF Great America. It made me miss FH less. I never was a big fan and I have to totally disagree with @silver2005, the B&M restraints are way better than Vekomas'.

Maybe it was the same person that gave fans of the park "Did summer fly by 2FAST4U?" on their social media channels.
Summer until supplies last?

There was no price on the sign.
I thought that was weird too.
I was talking to Mike and some of the other gold tags after I had the chefs plate. I will share what I told them. "It was the best chefs plate I had ever had."
Perfect portion size. The meat was tender, juicy, and well seasoned. The potato cakes were very flavorful. The carrots were well cooked.

I convinced them to give the park a chance and I (the enthusiast) happened to make CP $120 in tickets sales that day.
I don't think parks understand the influence enthusiasts have on park sales. Yes, there are negative comments sometimes. Some enthusiasts take not seeing the park at its peak potential personally and get extreme with their expectations. That much is very clear.
How many times have you seen me on the KIC social channels promoting sweet spot sales, apparel sales, and pass sales? Same with the FB pass holders, and other channels.
Parks have no problem displaying Amusement Today's awards. Who do they think votes in those polls? They may not like a few enthusiasts' attitudes or comments, but bottom line they need to play ball if they want to win awards and increase additional park sales. Considering they keep cutting budgets and such, you'd think that they'd be taking any lifeline they can get for free.

Is it time to declare the 1st season of TT2 was a bigger disaster than the 1st season of TTD?
Somewhere Kinzel is relieved a new ride took the title of biggest regret/disappointment
Does it count as a new disappointment if most of the structure is the same ride?

Why not string up the Winterfest tower lights early and change them to Halloween colors?
That is not a bad idea. It could gradually get to red at the top to match the beaming eyes.

Is the site redefining janky today for anyone besides me? I may as well be on dial-up running W3.1 as slow as its running!
This is the fastest I have seen it load in a while. Whatever Matthew did seemed to really help. Not sure what is going on for you?

I don't want to touch dirty money that has been who knows where. Tap and go is the only way in my opinion.

Wow, you and I were in the park the same day and never saw each other. Glad you had a great day.

I cannot confirm this to be the exact cause of TT2's issues, but it definitely appears that at least some of the issues stem from the new lightning trains provided by Zamperla. If this is the case, then I don't think it's really fair to blame Intamin for this, as they had no involvement with the lightning trains.
I totally agree with this point.

Back home now and seems to be much better. @disco2000did yours improve any more?
Tricks and Treats Fall Fest 2024

It was very evident at the Wine Fest and Grand Carnivale that was a very bad decision.
