  1. It appears the article messed up the details on Thunderbird's entry; it's Holiday World's 4th (major) coaster, not it's third (they forgot about The Legend).
  2. Probably The Bat, only because I only rode it 5 times last season.
  3. 20 days until Opening Day 2015! :)

  4. Yep, I'm one of the guys in the yellow (the shortest of the two guys with hats). My main scenes are near The Beast, near Breaker's Bay, and of course, the grand finale. As I've said before, it was a blast to make!
  5. You know it's the offseason when you are watching coaster POV's on Youtube, hoping the coaster season will start soon. 23 more days!
  6. Based on those pictures on the last page (the post with the comments about park entrances), I'm getting pumped to ride Fury 325 this summer!
  7. Good stuff so far; I'm especially looking forward to hearing about Six Flags Fiesta Texas as I really want to go there someday!
  8. silver2005, I just answered your question via PM. -MDMC01
  9. 25 days until Opening Day; it's getting closer! :)

  10. Carowinds' new entrance reminds me a bit of Cedar Point's entrance; I think everything's gonna look really cool when it's done!
  11. You know it; I saw Big last night (well technically Thursday night since it's past midnight lol) and it was amazing!!!!!!!
  12. Attention local KIC Members: If you have not yet done so, you NEED to see Big- The Musical. Not only is our own Gator in it, but other people like Jeremy and some of the dancers from The Boyz are Back are in it as well! So, you need to see it if you get the chance. Showtimes are Friday @ 8 PM, Saturday @ 2 PM and 8 PM and Sunday @ 2 PM :)

      I should probably tell you all where the show is... it's in Parish Auditorium on Miami University Hamilton's campus; tickets are $16!

  13. I do think the color schemes of a coaster matter as they get a chance to make a first impression to a potential rider. Color schemes I enjoy are/were Stealth (previously at California's Great America), Nighthawk (same ride, but now at Carowinds, with that yellow color scheme), any of Ricochet' (Carowinds) s color schemes except the current one, Rugrat's Runaway Reptar (all former Paramount Parks that had this ride), Colossus for Thorpe Park, both of the Invertigo (Great America and Kings Island's)s original color schemes and probably many others that I can't think of at the moment. And yes, I do like Scream's old color scheme better, although I was at first impressed with the new color scheme. Afterburn's paint job is also cool as is Millennium Force's. EDIT: I also like the paint job of the 3 Deja Vu coasters.
  14. Happy St. Patrick's Day everyone! Can you believe it's only 32 days until our own Irish-themed maiden awakens from her slumber? :)

  15. ... when you sit in a chair on your back patio pretending you are on Slingshot as the chair pivots backwards and forwards just like the ride does.
  16. 35 days until Opening Day! :)

  17. Be careful, upstop! That reminds me, when I was younger, there was this road that reminded me a lot of Adventure Express as it turned right and then swooped to the left. Unfortunately, I think this road no longer exists.
  18. Dude, you made Screamscape! http://www.screamscape.com/html/industry_news.htm#Internet
  19. (in reference to the picture of the torn-up Tower Gardens) This makes me really happy that something appears to be going on in this area; things could get pretty interesting... -MDMC, who once thought a water coaster would work great in this area
  20. That Green Lantern video reminds me of those suspended coasters that were loaded with water that passengers could spray those on the ground with as people walked by (examples: Nickelodeon Super Saturator, Roller Soaker).
  21. Not a problem! AE is one of my faves at night; especially when most of the tunnels go dark! EDIT: Plus, seeing Banshee's lights during the ride has added a cool effect to AE's night ride experience!
  22. Saw the Banshee-wrapped car while driving today... that can only mean 41 more days until KI's 2015 season begins! :)

  23. For me, I'd like to go to Kentucky Kingdom to ride T3 and pick up some flats that I missed last time (specifically Breakdance and Tin Lizzies) plus ride Cylos and maybe the rapids ride. The Edge of the Millennium Tour is planned for sometime in June, but details have yet to be completely worked out. In addition to picking up some much desired coaster credits (Fury 325, Nighthawk, and Dominator), I would be very much interested in riding Volcano or Verbolten at night, which I think would be really cool.
  24. What's weird is that the opposite has happened for me with Flight of Fear (I should note that I've only ridden under the ride's current name and with lap-bar restraints). When I was younger, I loved it, but now it just feels rough (still a fun ride though... sometimes...).
  25. That is a great picture, IamaBanshee; and I thank you for doing this countdown!
