I just kinda said the one time I wanted to skip "One day out of a whole school year isn't going to kill me, if that were the case we'd all be angry with snow days, besides this is senior year" I won, logic works

Theming we would like to see on Banshee
thedevariouseffect replied to Coasterama's topic in Kings Island
Did anyone ever figure out if those are the normal lights and will be staying like that? The video I watched of it seemed almost like it was announcing the coaster or opening it, or something. -
I would hope we would be using KI's policy/procedures. No again..alot of KI's policies for rides are just..wow. The time they waste doing certain things just astounds me. Take Beast for instance, auto queue gates or even just opening them on station stop would knock a couple seconds off of loading time, easily. Leaving them closed, eh, it adds slight time. There are times station is clear of guests but the op in controls isn't paying attention to the station and doesn't open the gates. Also the lift hills, if you actually have to evac, it's not going to be fun for most people at all shoes or no shoes. I don't think anyone is going to think, oh man I would have been ok with removing my restraint high up and climbing down the lift hill if I had a pair of Sketchers..no. You'll have people flipping out no matter what. An evac is the last ditch scenario though, we will attempt to restart the ride safely any way we can before trying that.

Been there done that, it's not as fun as you think Especially Mayfly season may still be in effect slightly. If I end up staying here, next few weeks will tell, if any grassy area stays, I already know where I'm staying But lot goes on at night, so sleep may not be happening, especially if they're doing late, and early ERT. Seriously though, you're not missing much

Is it somewhat morbid or offsetting seeing a tombstone meant for you, even if it's put together jokingly? -
I would have sooner, but spent the past two days with the gf...Even got her to race 40mph go karts fun times hehe. Anyways...CP is CP, let KI be KI.. Only things that I feel should be the same are season passes, policies/procedures, and the same FUN atmosphere..Everything else, keep them separate. The day Cincinnati Chili hits CP or fried cheese on a stick hits KI...done..Each park has their own perks, and each has a way thrills connect

DC Area: Capital Wheel

I'm kinda meh to this idea as well.. It'd offer nice views, but I don't want to see the monuments from above necessarily, I want to be there in front of them. The Vietnam Memorial is alot more humbling standing face to face with it than above IMO. I need to go back there sometime and go through it now as an enlisted member, between 8th grade and now, lots changed. -
I posted my thoughts in another thread...I'll go into more detail later but I need sleep for tomorrow's activities and whatnot. NMUSAF tour, chores, and then mixology party tonight Busy busy busy.. So bed Goodnight world

You look thirsty, you should get a glass of water :-)

I'd believe so...I would hope you all do, the event has allready raised a lot of good money for these kids to begin with. Were still months away from a media day event and give kids the world

Only one word really needed: Sweet! That's what I like about the videos and stuff. It's like I'm there and can see more and talk about more. A picture you only see so much, a status update is only so much. But in that video there was so much to look at and so many facts it was awesome to watch
-
It's not the parks being the same exactly it's that the content at one is really quite nice. You have to admit the pointcasts are pretty nice to have. The blog is...eh at times. But some good articles do exist. For KI...there's really none of it. Only thing I don't like is the advertising and stuff on Twitter more than other platforms. I see no need to be on any and every platform especially one that uses symbols in place of normal punctuation

By the way thank you to Don for the construction videos and progress. Its nice to see some new visuals and details about the construction in things other than words and pictures Why can't Kings Island do a blog and podcast like CP it's shown to be successful..

My favorite thing about AE...nicely designed Arrow, good laterals, and enjoyable pre first lift

Yes, noseless and all

Just think, a few months ago at GWL we only had the first half of the ride mainly done..Before that during the season, only a few station supports were up. Before that footers. Before that blank, zilch, nada. Before that, he who must not be named. One year ago, way different landscape Also Don, are you trolling me by posting instagram pictures of things I'd like to see
