I hope you're not planning to ride many rides if you come Saturday. Music in the Parks will be held that day plus the regular Saturday crowds and fair weather it's going to be packed to say the least. That's why I said "I plan on going just to take some pictures."

I'm not doubting a boost in attendance, just not enough to surpass any Disney theme park (all Disney World parks and Disneyland included). Which is a shame.

Aw, snap. Too bad I'm going this year. The family says it's "their turn" next year and we'll be going to the beach (I'm not a beach fan.) Anyways ... I wish they'd officially announce the Gringotts Coaster. I would really like to see how they're doing it. Maybe I'll visit in 2015 when most of the major construction is done. Unfortunately for Universal, Walt Disney World will always be the first theme park to come to mind when visiting Orlando. In my opinion, Universal is much better, but I just don't think, even with all these new attractions and improvements, it will still barely be peeking into the top 10 in attendance.

So, guys, do you think we'll see any significant changes to the construction area this weekend? I plan on going just to take some pictures.

If it's just a giga coaster, then it won't break the records for height, and probably not for speed. Maybe longest giga coaster?

Off topic; but I love how because of this thread, KIC is getting a ton of new members.

diamondhawk, while some of the points I agree with you, the others, I think you're a little too sure of yourself. Specifically Don throwing us off. You never know.

You're new to KIC, I see. Welcome. We're already discussing this here: http://www.KICentral.com/forums/index.php?/topic/27275-starting-to-decode-2014/page-13#entry513041

What's Skyrush's restraints like? All I hear were complaints about it when the ride opened. Also, was the ride fun anyway?

It really does sound to me like a hint towards the ride's height; why would he ask something as random as that?

What's the problem with Pat not being at the parks? Sure, it's disappointing, but I'd still love to go to Holiday World this year...

It's all subjective. I think The Beast is boring, while pretty much everyone else loves it...

Well, that's not going to happen.

Today at school, I had several people tell me Diamondback was 95mph and shorter than Son of Beast. The reason Diamondback was faster although it was shorter was because it was a "metal" coaster and "metal" coasters go faster than wooden. And Top Thrill Dragster is apparently 90ft. long and 150mph (yes, I said long, not tall). You don't know how much I want to strangle some people (is that bad?). There was much more but I forget.

^Um...April 27, 2013...what??!? This is getting interesting.

Wow, really? I never stayed there, but look at these reviews: http://www.tripadvisor.com/Hotel_Review-g37506-d114629-Reviews-Santa_s_Lodge-Santa_Claus_Indiana.html

That's an hour away.

If they had a hotel, thank God, because there's absolutely nothing out there besides Santa's Lodge (crappy hotel), Lake Rudolph (expensive), and the Christmas Cabins (expensive...). You have to stay twenty minutes away for a decent hotel!

I just don't get The Beast...in my opinion it feels slow, there's no G's whatsoever, and the only good part is the helix. I don't get it...maybe I'm just weird...

I don't think peeking is necessary. Whatever is behind that fence will be the one peeking (or peaking, haha) above, sooner or later.

What was bad about it? Please elaborate...

1.) Diamondback 2.) Flight of Fear 3.) Flight Deck 4.) The Beast 5.) Firehawk 6.) Vortex 7.) The Racer 8.) Invertigo 9.) Backlot Stunt Coaster 10.) Adventure Express 11.) Woodstock Express 12.) Flying Ace Aerial Chase 13.) Great Pumpkin Coaster ... lol ...

King Island. *facepalm* But other than that I don't see any spelling errors ...

^Son of Beast does have a bad rep. You're telling me more than 20 people being injured, many complaints of headaches after riding, and overall just a bad ride experience doesn't give SOB a bad rep?

Awesome! Whenever I go with my family now, my dad and I can ride Diamondback will my mom and my sister ride Flying Ace Aerial Chase.
