Has there been anything indicated from the park about whether or not Banshee will be lit up or will it be flying through the night blind?

CP Saturday 9/21/13 - fun but a little disappointing

There wasn't any indication as to why they weren't running the third train? Was it possibly undergoing maintenance, maybe the restraints under going some modifications? Or was it just sitting there on the transfer track? -

Great Trip Report! It seems you had a great time at the park. It seemed pretty successful for a Haunt Saturday. Sorry about all of the Mechanical Issues but all awesome rides are bound to go down at some point. I was kind of under the impression that Mille was pretty reliable, but who knows what was the problem.(yes I know, "Someone does") You seemed to enjoy that Haunts they sound pretty good. The Wicked Twister thing was weird, but I don't think it was Mechanical that sounds more like a emergency stop by the Ride Op. Maybe someone probably had a camera out or something. I have a question, why didn't you ride Gemini? That is my favorite ride there at Cedar Point, it typically doesn't have that long of a line. Is it just me that loves that ride? -
Count me also…. Disney seems to be a fan of Vekoma. This is looking pretty awesome.
-
Indeed, when it comes to Vekoma I will not hesitate to drop a Goliath upon you. You then will most certainly feel the Aftershock, and it will Sting, until I rein the Apocalypse down upon you. And I will continue you to do so...

Say that to my face and not online….

The Most Ridiculous Thing a Ride Operator has told you.

^^ Like this. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h64_H6TOz4k i wacthed that clip on youtube About 1:39ish... -
The only post the op has made other than the first post was this: That doesn't seem like out of the blue, does it?
-
Most of time I just smile and grin at the posts here, but this time I laughed out loud. You made my day.

The Delta Sky Club is pretty cool. Check it out here. I am not sure that the lines should be all that long. I mean the memberships are pretty exclusive from what I have observed.

Settle for Flight Deck? I thing you are thinking up side down!

I believe many of the current posters should take another look at The Terms of Service. There has been a lot of this going around. This is just a refresher of the stuff I have seen a lot of. But please take a look at Terms of Service. This was my original post for this, I decided to change it But you can view it below. I feel extremely stupid for posting this and I await for this topic to be closed. I decided not to change this topic entirely because I felt that would be just as bad. This topic had the intent to do what I felt was best for the forums.

I don't really know why anyone would want to see an defunct park. I find them really depressing and sad. Even watching videos, my eyes tear up and I can't finish it. I can't imagine being there in person. EDIT: 666th post!
-
Short, sweet, and to the point. Great Trip Report! I'm glad you had a "decent" time at the park!
-
It really upset me when everyone in the locker room (and pretty much everywhere else in school) were saying that on 9/11.
-
Or just not argue about it at all...
-
If your worried about spelling Intamin wrong you did fine, but I'm sure they would apreiciate you capitalizing Intamin. B&M is should also be capitalized. If you're ever in doubt about how to spell remember Intamin is short for International Amusement Industry.

Considering my eight year old friend can put his hands up on Millennium Force…. How ever I do not know the effects after drinking an entire case of alcohol, but still... Also Millennium Force does push a bit higher than Diamondback. Mille being 4.5 while Diamondback being 4.2 -
I have recently moved and I'm a hard time coping with it so the place that is common ground between Indy and Columbus is non other than the Best Place on Earth, Kings Island. I have plans to go a couple of times for the remainder of this season with my friends(Razy). But I was thinking of trying to set up and entire trip with the Gang. So we'd like to go the deadest day of the year. At Kings Island the most dead I have ever seen the park was during an education day, marathoning Diamondback, best day ever. But what days would you suggest for Kings Island and Cedar Point.
-
I believe it will. But why don't you ask the ticket clerk or guest relations to be sure.

Okay, okay... I enjoy both companies, I also really enjoy other companies like arrow and couple of those woodie manufactures. Can we just stop with the B&M vs. Intamin thing. Please! I makes me want to throw up and leave these forums. I know it is really easy to make fun of Youngstud, but just stop, and as for you bubbles (last time I swear) dude we get you like Intamin. Does that mean we aren't allowed to enjoy Diamondback or Gatekeeper. Yes, Intamin does push the limits and offers great, intense rides. But that does come with a cost more down time, which is fine for awhile, because I go quiet a lot. Although regular park guests you save and save there money and Christmas Bonus to go just for that one day and have the best day of the year, really they should be able to ride all of the rides they paid for. I was pretty PO'd because I didn't get to ride the dragster 4 trips in a row. B&M does offer a lot thrill for many people when I stand at the exit of Diamondback or Gatekeeper, I see everyone smiling, some even jumping right back in line. YoungStud, you look like a bigger guy, taller and athletic so if I have my seventh grade physics are correct you probably need more forces then what I would as a smaller 12 year old to experience the same thing. For any ride manufacture it does take some skills to design a 300+ ft. Roller Coaster that doesn't kill everyone of the first drop or bank, but still push the limits so you still are being held in by a tiny lap bar. One of Intamin's Head designers Werner Stengel is a pretty smart guy. He has a (honorary) Doctorate from Gothenburg University. B&M does have issues but they aren't all that bad, you can't blow them up and try and compare them to some of the Intamin's mistakes. Can we just stop the bickering about the two Companies, grab a snickers, and enjoy the freaking ride!
