  1. ^Last year someone was able to track down a shipping date for Gatekeeper's track through UPS.
  2. Now I'm turning into a math geek but whatever....Did you guess the hypotenuse and opposite side or we know those numbers 100%?
  3. There are stairs leading to the station so it is likely about DB's height (there are 2 sets of stairs)
  4. ^Sounds about right IMO (200ft on 0 degree angle, make it 35 degrees, and you get another 40ish feet.) EDIT: I think you may have got the lenght of the lift, not height; let me go grab a calculator. Also, anyone notice how the trains look in the blueprint? Could it be v-style seating (like DB and Behemoth) or is just the coverings that usually go around the wheels on B&M inverts?
  5. Inverts are usually 35 - 45 degrees I believe.
  6. ^^Huh? How does that have to do with anything I said (I never said it was for a restroom ) The entrance seems to be right by the circle which would be the perfect place to put something like a fountain. After looking at construction pics, that circle in the blueprint is where the drains are.
  7. Isn't this the place were the drains are? If I had to take a guess, that would be a perfect location for a fountain!
  8. Geez...I'm so used to how short Canada's Wonderland queues are (take a look at Leviathan's) that the queue for this coaster looks massive IMO!
  9. I'm going to be at canadas wonderland Thursday night....gonna miss everything.
  10. Leviathan was rumoured to originally be for KBF but for some reason was moved to Wonderland. So I don't think KI is getting a KBF coaster.
  11. A few pages back some of your were saying that the layout of this roller coaster would block out any way that an expansion can go into the back of the SOB area. 1) Its a roller coaster, paths can always be made around the supports/track to get to the back are of SOB 2) There was an interview with the GM (I think) of KI and he said he does not want KI to get too big and by expanding into the SOB area....the park would get too big.
  12. I believe those are the old trams. EDIT: Beat again.
  13. EDIT: Forget about it.....delete this post please
  14. http://www.KICentral.com/forums/index.php?/topic/27275-starting-to-decode-2014/?p=541391
  15. First roller coaster to feature glow in the dark supports/track. Looks like we found out what the world record will be!
  16. @Thrill_Biscuit: I don't think anyone has mentioned it yet but I love you profile pic....if only it would become a reality!
  17. I did....in fact I hope they are false! I was not saying that you are wrong, I was just stating the obvious.
  18. I learned how to make a logo similar to "The Bat" in Grade 10 Communications Technology with Illustrator......it took about 30 minutes to make and was pretty easy....for a person working at KI, I wouldn't be suprised if it took them 10 minutes. Clearmont Steel Fabricators....the place that manufactures most of B&M's roller coasters. Really...a Wing Coaster? That means something isn't right with the blueprints...
  19. "cracks appeared around the base of a giant metal support." That's all it says...
  20. Kings Island should borrow the dragon (for Fantasyland) from Disney, modify it to look like a Banshee, and get it to fly around during the announcment.
  21. UPDATE: Th Smiler has closed yet again (but has since reopened) after cracks were found in one of the supports. http://www.expressandstar.com/news/2013/08/05/alton-towers-smiler-ride-closed-again-as-new-cracks-found/
  22. Not to mention that the website with the 2014 address was the exact one that was debated on earlier in this forum when it went all IT Geek for about 3 pages over where what HTML and URL pointed to and redirected to where. HA! I knew I was right! (The Banshee URL is still giving a 404...but no more URL talk...don't need to confuse everyone again! ) Just want to brag for ONE post....no more bragging.
  23. ^And he is now saying its a Wing Coaster...
