To be honest that was something anybody can guess so I wouldn't really rub it in people's faces

Care to elaborate on that? Source?

People often crap on Paramount for removing the Antique Cars in 2004 in favor of a multilaunch Premier coaster- Italian Job Stunt Track which opened the following year; but was it a bad move? Flash foward to 2019 and we still have this coaster, albiet a dethemed one. Cedar Fair continues to operate Backlot Stunt Coaster at KI, as well as at KD and CW, despite the land it sits on. Hypothetically, if Paramount kept the original Antique Cars instead of replacing it with a coaster, do you think Cedar Fair would do the same or do you think they would replace it with a coaster just like Paramount did?

Is Kings Island a Have or a Have Not Cedar Fair park?
SonofBaconator replied to BruceWayneWins's topic in Kings Island
I just finished watching his Six Flags "Discount Chain" video and it pretty much solidifies my thoughts of them choosing to be mediocre. I wonder what's the ROI they get when they divy attractions put to all of their parks every year as opposed to Cedar Fair where they dish out about 2 major attractions per year tops. -

I'm glad that he recognizes that Kings Island is the second best park in the chain on his tier list. -

HUGE announcement from BGW!
SonofBaconator replied to MaxxForce's topic in Other Amusement Parks & Industry News
I don't know how that spike/dead end feature is going to work. So you reach the top and then the switch track immediately transfers? Is there some type of holding break at the top of the hill? That seems kind of dangerous to me but I'm no engineer. -
Nevertheless I'm sure he doesn't want to get inboxed constantly about roller coaster stuff.

I think he visits these threads enough to know what's going on.

Diamondback as old wooden coaster
SonofBaconator replied to ThrillKingsFitzy's topic in Kings Island
Kind of a dumb question if you ask me -
I thought that area would be better for a dive. For ever I thought Timberwolf should go but if it does then so does all opportunities for concerts.
-
I wouldn't speculate that based off of this tweet. They always do a "on this date" tweet for popular ride announcements and such.

That wouldn't surprise me. Its called the P&D building. For my internship I had to go there a lot to pick up materials for the campground I worked at. If I were to compare it to anything it would be the Chocolate Factory because it was kinda whimsical and fun to walk through.

In the midst of the Decoding 2020 thread, there was talk about 3 train operations on Adventure Express. This got me thinking of ideas to overhaul the nearly 30 year old attraction and give it better theming. Add more practical sound effects or possibly audio that gets triggered throughout different segments of the ride Maybe the sound of dripping water "clanging" noises when you enter the second tunnel Add color changing lights in some of the tunnels to add more character to the rides. Add props in the station similar to Mystic Timbers Posters in the que would add to the story as well as some custom audio prepping you for the adventure Finally, and I don't know if this is feasible, but return to 3 train operations. It would be cool if a train stopped in the tunnel before the 1st lift hill and some type of scene went on, similar to the shed. It would make the ride seem longer and would help avoid stacking.
