  1. My highest was in the 1700s on my first ride, despite not figuring out what to shoot at until the second or third scene (typical beginner's luck for me). Since then, I haven't broken 1500 and usually score around 1200–1400.
  2. They're not just stuck in daytime. The DA! and Front Gate cams are stuck at, respectively, 9:19 am and 9:20 am Sunday morning. In other words, they haven't updated in over two and a half days.
  3. Null vote because my choice isn't listed. My favorite is the winning Racer.
  4. I was told by the ride op at the entrance around 10:15 yesterday that Vortex "broke down". By the time I came back from lunch at almost 2:00, it was running.
  5. Yesterday, they weren't assigning seats on The Beast, just cutting off the line occasionally to keep the station from getting crowded. Diamondback was assigning seats, but I requested and was allowed to wait an extra train for the back seat.
  6. I noticed yesterday that Adventure Express now has Fast Lane.
  7. Yesterday while walking through Action Zone, I overheard somebody commenting that SOB was closed because cars had flown off the track on the first drop.
  8. To paraphrase a famous saying, one person's rough is another person's smooth.
  9. I just checked and all four are working for me as well.
  10. Previously, when I brought up the forums on my dumbphone's mobile web, it automatically gave me the mobile skin. Now, it's apparently trying to load the full version, because my phone just returns the error "Page Too Large; Open Mobile Site".
  11. It seems to only be accessible via direct link; it doesn't appear on the calendar to the left on on the list of blog entries.
  12. ^ It all depends on where you sit. Avoid the back row of any individual car, as those seats are directly over a wheel and therefore will be extremely rough. The middle row of a CAR (not the middle of the whole train) will be smoother. The front row is also fairly smooth. In fact, I would call 6-2 (middle row of back car) very rough, but I find the front row to barely be rough at all.
  13. If rain is in the forecast, that may reduce the lines somewhat. When I went for the first time back in June, there was rain in the forecast every day, and I had some very short waits (think 15 minutes on Millie and 20 minutes on TTD). From what I understand, I was there at typically one of the slowest times of the summer to begin with, so that may be part of the cause of my short waits, but I'm fairly certain that even for mid–late June, those were unusually short waits. (Others with more CP experience may correct me on that point.)
  14. Kings Island is giving away two park tickets and two Fast Lane passes. If you're interested, register here. No word on when entries close or when the drawing is, so register quickly if you want to get in.
  15. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lorum_ipsum should explain it. (summary: it's a placeholder; somebody probably inadvertently hit the publish button when they shouldn't have)
  16. Easy. Red Racer. I rode it 106 times during Coasting for Kids a few weeks ago. That day alone easily beats everything else at KI. I've ridden it a few more times than that, but I don't know the exact total.
  17. Ill turn it on as a test. I'm a little indifferent to the "Like" feature...it doesn't actually bother me...but I think it tends to make some people a little lazy and not post their feelings. (It will be ironic if someone simply just "likes" this post!) I tried to "like" your post, but I got an error message saying, "You have reached your quota of positive votes for the day." Um... I haven't "liked" anything yet today.
  18. Speaking of which, one of the notification options reads, "Notify me when someone 'likes' my posts". So where is this "like" button, or is the feature not turned on?
  19. will actually be able to make a trip to KI with his mother this summer thanks to the August Bring-A-Friend deal.

  20. I've used my Platinum Pass at both Cedar Point and CP's Soak City on the same day without a problem. Of course, both of those parks are on the same peninsula, so the system may be programmed to accommodate for that, but then it doesn't make sense as to why couldn't it accommodate for other parks as well.
  21. ^ As a side note, I think "KIC Star Member" is out of date for rotag. Other users with nine gray dots under the avatar (which I believe correlate to the title) like standbyme are titled "KIC Platinum Member".
  22. A quick search on the WikiBlamer shows that it was added on November 8, 2009 by a user named "CoastersForever".
