Will Cedar Fair ever invest in a Winter Season?
Uh, no. The slides over at Beach were able to be rode down via potato sacks, ours is a no no. Now I do believe a Christmas event could infact come into play if done properly. Close off points in the park i e AZ, RTfor less expense, but keep interval places like PS, IS, CM & OF open, with the possibility of XB. With those areas you could operate a few flats, and at least 2 coasters, all could be themed to Christmas, i e FoF has Steamroller songs. As well like said as long as you have a few shows, a petting zoo maybe, and good Christmas theme, you're set. The main problem is staffing and revenue. Think about it, most employees are teenagers at KI, Haunt is a stretch, but Christmas?Many would simply turn down that position in my eyes. As well, why do most people come to KI? For coasters, which in that time would be few hence we could see less revenue. That is if the price is over rated and the event isn't a tri state must do. If ran to where it is a must do, and if it is a good price, I think we could see a great success.

Haunt Thoughts 2013
Que the Foggy Mountain Breakdown, quite literally. Now this Haunt BB as I call it, could be in the woods somewhere, possibly ToT replacement?

Starting to Decode 2014
Yes.I always wanted to do that. Some do that often, common place here on KIC. I got to go on a nature trail today!

Yes BB1, avoiding a one word post.

Starting to Decode 2014
The boards run high in a place of heat upstop, grilling, being board to death really. Meanwhile if we get a new system, I would like to see a mister effect on the sign.

Starting to Decode 2014
That is true but remember his interview, his ideas are on placement. Sure I expect the same as you do coming from Disney, but he has gone with a very generic company to be honest, except when it comes to Haunt. Now could he change the theme perspective? Sure, infact I see him doing major differences very soon from the latter era. Some of the first non paint theme pieces to Soak City came a few weeks ago, can you find them yourself?

Hey this is Cedar Fair we're talking about, don't expect too much theming.

Starting to Decode 2014
I feel sometimes alone in my like for inverts, woodies, Vekomas, and waterparks. I don't know about you guys but I love inverts, they feel different and almost like you are flying (hence Flight Deck). I on the other hand love inverts due to the "fly by" element you get on them and the great feel you can acquire. I'm going to be very happy if we get an invert and or hyper, which I don't see a hyper there.

Halloween Haunt 2013
In my thoughts as I have stated on site (look in Haunt ideas I believe), I stated a walkway to the Haunt, it seems more liable from how the TT has it's own story of a break down. Plus think about it you are going to the beach, would you take a train to the beach? The PS area is getting haunts more and more, making the area a great key for the place to get to the new Haunt.

Halloween Haunt 2013
If we get a haunt in the waterpark.....I'm going! BB1, glad a bit of my ideas came into existence.

Starting to Decode 2014
Well this at KI is a coaster not at the enterance, this is in the far left area. Now a new modern enterance, at KI, I don't think so.

Invite only Haunt Event?
Yes, there was a treat for many yesterday, I saw many of whom went in the parking lot. BB1, who saw the magic lacertilia!

Halloween Haunt 2013
If they make it a Southern ToT, I will love BB (hint hint) for awhile. I see the same as RingMaster right when I saw the news, so look for my thoughts in his post.

Starting to Decode 2014
......Or someone already did. There are wooden poles now all around this area making a "U", as well I saw a footer with a ladder in it. Crazy things are happening there, hopefully we can get an official announcement soon.
-
Starting to Decode gone?
I believe we may want to stay on the topic of the 2014 decoding topic and discuss the matter on the respectable topic thread, the Announcement/Postponed topic. I believe we will see no more of the "troll" posts and more than likely see all the more conversational posts on what could be an idea or a coaster type.

Starting to Decode gone?
In all honesty Terp, I am just stating a theory that feels too good to not be true. We did in a sense loose a partnership by us failing our part, but like most relationships can have a rough patch. I am just stating it in a more "worst case scenario" because it just lines up too well. Right after the event we loose our event, does that fall into coincidence or is it just matchable? I as well as many have concluded on this statement, but sadly there is always the what if factor which you pointed out. Now as well you must look at another finding I had about the event I believe I posted in the postponed section, anything can be possible but we have to debate the facts and the variables. BB1, for the first time an pessimist.

Starting to Decode gone?
Along KI-ORIG's point, was the poster banned from the site? I think we all need a bit of a reality check. We just had a member, or a person whom went off our site, just committed one of the worst actions that one could perform, trespassing, that is a major mark on this site. We lost a great partnership with a great park over a member/reader using a "lie" and going into restricted area(s?) in the park. We have to fix us before our friendship with KI.

The BB Report
Why make so many topics about my mysterious endeavors when I could make one and be done? So this is the official TR/PTR topic for all things BB1 related! As well you can view the BB Report coverage of the mysterious 2014 coaster and more! Our first post will be a PTR/News piece on the progress on 2014 Coaster/Haunt props happenings, all seen in the most legal way possible.

If anything we owe KIC mods an very big thank you for their work on the site and how they run the events. It may not appear much to some, but in all honesty, working on sites for hours on in, you get tired and want a break from it all, but they don't take a break from it. I am thankful that there are people like myself and mods who go on to sites and perfect great works about parks and coasters across the world. So thanks Dane, and all the moderators that keep this place running! The work pays off in the long run!

I really hope bullet 3 doesn't go into effect, then I would not be happy, nor the something something employees here on site. BB1, who will just chill for a few, and see what happens.

To past and present KI employees
To be honest, I just took a break from the site, and to come back sooner was from this "storm" TB has spoken of. I just don't feel right when I sit out on other sites and I couldn't help this one better. Like I said, I'm here and I am going to help to fix this site along with fellow members.

Haunt Thoughts 2013
Hey what can I say, I have good ideas and I wish I could work in the design/idea dept for Haunt, but I'll keep to making ideas and sharing when asked.

Haunt Thoughts 2013
I will have to agree with you Forsaken, they need to get a thing called imagination. Don't look at Amnesia or Silent Hill for inspiration, take your fears and use them in a specific haunt! The historical values are a great thing to use occasionally, i e London Terror (if memory serves me right) but don't use the pop culture. The only acceptable instances I can say are when you really take it a step further or use it in a new way/idea i e skeletons at KI for certain people. I do hope we get a Black Forest theme area in OktoberFest, bring in the fairytale and myth factor of the Black Forest and bring it into a scare for the area.

Going alone to Kings Island
I have found you have greater fun alone than with a group. For example a few weeks ago I was in the line for a coaster at KI, and behind me were these very funny and friendly hippies. As well you can go and not have someone screaming in your ear when riding a coaster, but you will be alone. Which on the BLSC i keep hearing someone yell out foods and spreads, i e meat, mustard, etc. You can as well have fun with a group by being a large group having fun together, both in a way can have their plus and minus values.
