What ride was open the year you were born
Oooo, you're missing out. Big Thunder Moiuntain Raildord is a very fun ride. Even though it looks small and for kids, it's very fun. Even my mom, who hates roller coasters, like it. Just a side note, my mom doesn't ride much when we go to KI, but she watches Guiding Light on WKRC and the people on that soap opera went to Universal Studios Florida. My mom thinks that place looks like a lot of fun and she wants to go there. Yea her .

Best Day Of The Week For A KI Trip?
I voted for Tuesdays, but I would also say Wednesdays.

Pilgrims Plunge
The Super Walmart has two of those fans in their lawn and garden center. The inside portion, not the outside part where the plants are kept. Those things are MASSIVE.

Eiffel Tower Lighting
rotag, I've wondered for some time now what your avatar is. I hadn't looked at it too closely, but I knew it looked really cool.

The New KICentral.com T-Shirt Now Available!
I know what to do. Order one of each . Also, if very few people like LMHConcepts' design, then how did it win?. If you guys don't like the design, then why vote for it? I personally like it.

IMPORTANT Information Regarding Ride Warriors Coaster Weekend
I doubt people will have to re-register. It'll probably be sorted out with the screen names and member numbers.

Diamondback Stats
I really don't think that is true. Yeah, we probably won't get a 450'+ coaster, but I don't think they limited it at 230' so we wouldn't 'overshadow' CP with that. I think it was the cost and placement. Obviously, $22 million dollars is a lot. Then, KI wanted the station where it is and for it to fit there how they wanted and with the drop, the height had to be limited.

Adventure Express Discussion
^^^I rode about the same time and noticed that too. I figured they just weren't working at the moment.

The New KICentral.com T-Shirt Now Available!
I totally agree 100% with that. That would have been a sweet looking shirt, especially if LMHConcepts would've been able to put the Eiffel Tower on his design.

Friday, Saturday, Sunday (04.24-26) TR
I went on Saturday at about 6:30 and didn't ride very much because all of the big rides had long waits. I'm glad you finally got to see your husband and you guys had a good time.

Ride warriors weekend question
I believe you just put your screen name in that area.
-
the thin black line
Well, the line goes right by the test seat, so they could look then ? Or, the could just put a little stamp on your hand. Not many people look at peoples' hands, so it wouldn't be too noticable, but the ride ops would know to look for it and see that person has the hand stamp. I don't know, one of you smart people out there expand on this less than brilliant idea.

Diamondback Day or Night?
In your opinion, which one wins, Nitro or Diamondback. But seriously, The Beast wins hands down for best night ride at KI.
-
the thin black line
Well, they could make the wristband look like the others so no one would know what it is for unless they get close and read it.

So, are the lines for the bigger rides short? How are the lines for FOF, Firehawk, Vortex, and even DB?
-
What would you like changed to KI in the next five years?
Well, that is you loss, and our gain, because it is one less person standing in line in front of us.

Announcing the KICentral.com T-Shirt Design Contest
Yeah. I don't think they would do that to us for us doing all of that hard work, but it could've been a conspiracy all along.

Anyone else not allowed to ride Diamondback?
I rode in the back row (row 16) a couple of time, and had more room last weekend... I think. Or, maybe I just got a lot bigger last week.
-
Announcing the KICentral.com T-Shirt Design Contest
Yes, this is strange nothing has been posted. Maybe they decided to go to KI today, or they will choose which design they want and no one wins .

Diamondback Day or Night?
I would have to say a... night ride. Once you go down the first drop, there is no light until the final helix. It was amazing out behind the Crypt. After the second drop as you make the slight turn was really cool because you could see the outline of the supports and I had my hands up and I thought my hand were going to get smashed. A night ride on Diamondback almost rivaled a night ride on The Beast, but The Beast wins by a mile, or should I was about 2,118 feet .

rotag1299's 4/25/9 tr
Wow, sounds like a decent day. I went there for about 3.5 hours last night and didn't ride any of the big rides because the lines were too long. The only roller coasters I rode were DB, Racer red and blue, BLSC, and Flight Deck. I hope you had a better time than I did.

Official Details on Kings Island's Ride Warriors Weekend! (ERT Info Released!)
So does this mean we need to purchase the $10 backyard bbq ticket too? Probably, as Terpy said. That is a list of events that will be ocurring during RWW. It says there will be meal deals, thus making it sound like there will be meal deals available. Edit: Another reason they would make you pay is if you have a pass, then you get in for free, and it would cost too many nickels to give that many people free food.
-
Anyone else not allowed to ride Diamondback?
I also noticed that some seats have more room than others. I rode in row 10 last night and it seamed there was a lot less room with the restraint when I pulled it down, and I'm by no means a big person. So everyone who is a little larger, AVOID ROW 10.
-
Upcoming Coney Mall Addition?
I don'k know if this as been mentioned yet, but it looked as if there was new wooden fenceing to the right of the EuroBungee and to the left of the restrooms by Vortex (this is if you're standing by Shake, Rattle, and Roll, so you can get a sense of direction).

New Orleans preparing to sue Six Flags....
This is indeed very sad news for Six Flags. Do you think the company will be around for a couple more years, or will this season probably be the last?
