Loads fine for me on Firefox 20.0.1 on Windows 8.

^ What is that and when was that photo taken?

I'll get mine on Opening Day rather than pay for shipping. IndyGuy4KI, how early will you be there? I'll be there around 7:00 to 7:15 for the 5K.

Emailed the park and got a response: there will be no lockers available. Plan on using the car or leaving things at home.

Probably should start a new list at some point. Per TombRaiderFTW's great explanation of what should fit into each difficulty level, many of the items in the current Google Doc are badly miscategorized. It would be easier to just start the list over from scratch at some point. However, I don't feel like doing it now; I'd like to see this thread active again before I go to the trouble of creating a new list.

Welcome! If you're looking to meet other KIC'ers and make new friends, then the meetup forum is for you: http://www.KICentral.com/forums/index.php?/forum/50-KICentral-meet-ups/

I ran into the same problem. It seems that the system counts lines not simply on the number of hard returns entered, but based on actual displayed lines after long lines have been wrapped to a new line. Furthermore, it seems to use a very narrow screen width to calculate when a line wraps. So most likely your ride count will have to go onto your profile page instead.

$5 more than what? Do we have an estimated price yet? Also, how will payment be arranged? Will we be using PayPal, credit cards, mailing checks, etc.?
-
OK, I decided that I can afford this, so I am signed up. Has anybody heard whether we'll have access to lockers to store cell phones, etc., during the run, or should I plan on leaving that stuff in the car and going back out for it post-race?

Getting a medium here, prefer light gray but will take white.

Glad you had fun and picked the right night to go! How cleanly did you catch the ball, and did you barehand it or use a glove? -
New Logo Coming To KICentral!
jcgoble3 replied to LMHConcepts's topic in KICentral Footnotes & Small News
(Apologies in advance for the multiple huge image quotes.) A tad confused. Would you mind explaining this a bit more. He means this logo: combined with the wordmark and accompanying frame below in the colors of the logo above. Make sense? -
New Logo Coming To KICentral!
jcgoble3 replied to LMHConcepts's topic in KICentral Footnotes & Small News
Hey look! We're better than Six Flags! 'Cause we got EIGHT flags! Seriously, though, I think the Bioshock version is cool, but a little busy. I'd definitely buy it, but it's not the best. -
New Logo Coming To KICentral!
jcgoble3 replied to LMHConcepts's topic in KICentral Footnotes & Small News
I like the top one better, as it looks simpler/less busy. The outline of the US doesn't really make sense to me, as we're (mostly) all from one relatively small region (OH/IN/KY), plus I like the appearance of negative space better than the black. -
Also don't forget that Platinum Pass holders get 10% off the standard rack rate at Hotel Breakers (use promotional code PASS when reserving online, or call and ask for the Platinum Pass rate; you'll be required to show a valid Platinum Pass at check-in).

Link: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AuPkaMcZP5OodC1UNUViVnhBOWY1eU0yXzl5elc5QVE#gid=0 Probably should reconsider the difficulties of most of the shots. Also, I haven't been updating it since the latest "relaunch" of this thread.

Fast Lane "Plus" Comes to some of the Cedar Fair Parks

Low Crowd days at Cedar Point
jcgoble3 replied to homestar92's topic in Other Amusement Parks & Industry News
In one peninsula-sized blender, combine: Weekdays in late June Temperatures barely above 70°F Gloomy, overcast skies Forecast of scattered thunderstorms Off-and-on showers Set blender to "LIQUEFY" and blend until wait times drop to less than 20 minutes each for Millennium Force, Maverick, Raptor, and Top Thrill Dragster. Serve immediately. -
Kings Island and downtown flyover photos, 3-23-13
jcgoble3 replied to ohiocolts's topic in Trip Reports
Great shots! I never realized just how far back Diamondback goes. And SOB took up a lot more space than I thought. Thanks! -
My "perfect day"? Afternoon high of 102°F and a severe thunderstorm watch for the entire area, but no long-lived or damaging storms that shut things down for more than an hour or so (several long showers unaccompanied by lightning would be a bonus). Why? Get the temperature high enough and even waterpark attendance will go down, probably, as people want to stay inside in the air conditioning, but I love the heat. Add a threat of storms and rain, and attendance goes down even further, plus it's on days like that that I have the most fun, rediscovering the little things like Viking Fury and having fun getting drenched in the rain. I know, y'all think I'm crazy, right?

I would like to see it go backwards again... Don't get me wrong, I'd love to see it go backwards again too. I LOVED recaR. I was very fired up when the announcment was made that they were making it go forward again in the name of nostalgia. But, as we later learned, it was due to state requirements. Most of us on here understand the reasons it cannot currently go back to backwards operation, I just find it irritating that the GP doesn't know or understand. I thought the same. But when I tried to explain the state requirements to someone on the KI Facebook page, my comment was deleted, and Don told me that it was deleted because it was incorrect and that The Racer was turned back around because the company chose to. Now I don't know what to believe.

Downtown Disney to Become "Disney Springs"

Ah, the benefits of having your own personal government... -
New Logo Coming To KICentral!
jcgoble3 replied to LMHConcepts's topic in KICentral Footnotes & Small News
I just had an idea: what would it take to convert the new logo into a new favicon for the site? The existing one that just says "KI" on a plain background just doesn't "do it" for me, and I think the new logo might make a better favicon. -
How long has it been since you've been to Kings Island?
jcgoble3 replied to KIfan73's topic in Kings Island
What ohiocolts and VortexBFForever said as far as time.
