Wanted: Scary Souls For Annual Kings Island Event
Kings Island is like soooo corny when it comes to announcements about Haunt. Come on.

Halloween Haunt?
I remember there was a haunt that went back by WWC when HH was FF. Anyone remember this? I think it would be cool, considering those woods are creepy at night.

Favorite Manufacturer
I believe I already made a thread like this.. Oh well. Steel: B&M Wood: GCII (From what I've ridden, they're so much fun!)

Carowinds Trip Report 7-25
Nice pictures! I really want to ride Afterburn!

Big Bad Wolf closing
I find this sad.. I really hoped I could ride it someday. And its the rides 25th anniversary? I guess if its sooooo much money in mechanincs and repairs and stuff, then they're doing a good thing.

Do you think Diamondback will get into the top 3 best new coasters for 09?
I think definately Manta and Diamondback will be in the top 3. I'm not sure what will win, though.

AOL's Top 10 Underrated Amusement Parks
Uhh...so a major waterpark gets 950,000 guests in 9 months and that's past their attendance goal, and yet Diamondback has over 1,000,000 rides in just 4 months? Jackson, confused.... Yeah and just to think, not everyone in the park rides Diamondback, so we've had way over 1 million people just visit the park!

Halloween Haunt?
Take the time to try the Haunt attractions some of them look really good but the ones I tried last year was just plain stupid.(Urgent Scare and Cornstalkers) I know. Urgent Scare was not scary at all. It was just really gory. Kind of like that one movie... "Haunting in Connecticut". Haunting in Connecticut was too scary! It had many jumpy parts that scared me.. So be quiet I agree somewhat though, I left the theater not scared really at all.. (SORRY I COULDN'T RESIST) -Back on topic- Urgent Scare was good on the outside, but it was annoying on the inside..
-
The Crypt so much potential. So little time...
But surely you can feel the second one, it hangs you! I like that one.. It's the only good part of the ride!

Guests Say The Darnest Things
Lady standing under the Diamondback sign: What's that new one called? The umm Diamond.. Diamond.. Lady's friend: Diamondsnake! Its amazing to me how many people can't read signs.

Little Things You Notice
I noticed there's a Diamondback seat under the train storage laid on a trashcan, I noticed inside the fence thing between Rivertown Junction and Diamondback's queue there's a test seat in there. I also noticed you can see inside of the top of Drop Tower at night, it was kinda cool. I also noticed you could see the little pond that's part of WWC from Diamondback.

Universal Studios Florida / Islands of Adventure PTR
Great! I'm excited to go! Thanks.

Favorite train on DB
I like brown the best. I got my first ride on that train, and for that, it is my favorite.
-
Simple question!
Amen to that! Stop the coaster hate! Every coaster offers a different experience, and if you don't like the coaster and the experience it brings to the table, that's fine, but I don't think you should hate it.

Holiday World's next coaster
I plan on trying to make a trip out there next summer, and while they probably won't have a new ride by next year (knock on wood) I'd really like to see a nice, long, but SMALL steelie in there. A big steel coaster would, in my opinion, take the magic out of HW.

What's Up On The Island? Episode 3 Now Live!
Yeah, I was one of the people who said they were going to leave a voicemail and never followed through. I guess it's because I don't have any questions or anything? I'll listen to this one again and see if I can think of a good question or comment. But you can be expecting one from me soon! Count on it!
-
KI needs an Intamin!
I totally agree with this and your first post. There is SO much land back there, and if you include some of the old Lion Country land, that could be a whole new area! I think a nice B&M Invert could fit back there easily.

Coaster Battle #1: Adventure Express vs. Backlot Stunt Coaster
AE, and what would really complete it is if they planted some big trees in between certain areas of the ride. It'd give it a more 'Jungle' feel. I still love it though, more than BLSC.

I Think...I Just.. Fell in love
Ooh I know who you're talking about. And, Diamondback at night is purely amazing.

4th of July Weekend at Silver Dollar City PTR
Your daughter is so cute! Silver Dollar City is a great park, and has some hidden gems (Fire In The Hole, Powder Keg). Glad to see you had a good time. Did you go to the Marvel Cave while there? It's amazing!
