Repeat after me, those footers can be used as footers for the lightposts.

Currently the Fun Pix images aren’t being uploaded to the user’s online folder, and the Fun Pix site is currently down. Anyone else having issues?

Making the Case for Outsourcing Cedar Fair’s Food and Beverages
gforce1994 replied to Oldschool75's topic in Kings Island
It’s true. People are using phones more and it’s killing social and problem solving abilities. I think outsourcing would allow industry pofessionals who do know how to do the food industry at a large level will cut down the lines that people have spent years complaining about. -
Talking of underused spaces, there are several that come to mind: Walkway between Bat and AZ, Kill Mart/Dinosaurs Alive, Crypt Building Area behind Mondo Monsoon Xbase IS to Rivertown walkway by DBack splashdown, SE Planet Snoopy I could see a ton of flat rides coming in within the upcoming years, in an attempt to plug the gaps.

For those who are unaware, Tom & Chee was purchased by Gold Star Chili today. However, since KI has both Skyline and Gold Star owned businesses at the park now, what do you think of Tom & Chee’s status at the park?
-
Nah, ride will be a Huss Breakdance. It was documented as one of the seven rides bought by CF over in Europe. Plus its the only ride not to have been installed!

Skywarp. Hey it gives a good excuse to make a path between East Coney Rest Rooms and X Base.

As you may be aware when KI opened in 1972, the entrance to the park did not include the I Street Restaurant on the second floor. I was looking over building codes, and noticed that the loading requirements for a restaurant far exceeded the loading requirements for the roof of a building, in terms of psf for a live and dead load. I was curious on whether the entrance was originally designed for a restaurant, since the first floor structure has remained the same since the park’s opening. With that curiousity, was the main entrance originally built with a second floor eatery in mind, or did they have to modify the overall structure to add that in?

It’s definitely not. In the late 1990s there was a coaster war between KK and KI. SOB was built to such a large scale, it freaked SF into investing in GL rather than at KK.
-
Those buildings are done. There’s no way they can claim that work is only for a refurbishment. #makewayforskywarpconstruction

“Not at the same level when it comes to KI”. If you’re talking about the rides, I’d tend to agree, however, if you’re talking waterpark, then that is a load of bull. KI has the better coaster and flat ride line up, but HW and KK have a far superior waterpark than what KI has. For instance at KK, you have the second tallest free fall slide in the world, 4 bowl slide towers, water coaster, 2 tube slide towers, 2 lazy rivers, 2 wave pools, a bar, 2 raft slide towers...... At Holiday World you have #1 and #2 ranked water slide in a top ranked water park, 3 funnel/bowl slide towers, large mat racer, 3 kids areas etc..... And no, the music isn’t coming back as they are using it as a way to influence reviews of teens/ young adults to try to gain a larger foothold in that market.

The only way to remove a retweet is a). Ask the persons who retweeted, or b). delete the original tweet.

Say what you want, but with the Attitudes building getting demolished, I think we could get a skywarp.
-
But blocking users who commented first time around is the worse possible decision one could make, as it makes it look like there is something happening.

Interesting

However, the first Skywarp was supposed to be announced during IAAPA. The fact the announcement is being made later makes this more suspicious. Looking back at the Tower Gardens site, yes we are getting a (CENSORED) but are we getting more? In Early August: Tower Gardens shuts down, and reopens. Only difference are footers, and the utility lines being placed. First Week August, Survey Markings appear all over Western end of Coney Mall. 8/16: KI doesn't make announcement along with MA for 2018 additions. Rumor of later announcement. 9/4: Coney Potato Works and Attitudes are closed for final time. Following Week: Construction walls go up for 2.3 acre site. Potato Works is demolished. Attitudes building is gutted, and currently in process of demolition. 9/28 : Tweet goes out stating Skyline Attraction Project is on docket with SFDK and KI. If you look at size of ride, compared to the size of the land, it's a perfect fit.

In 65 million years, humans. All joking aside, either flats or Giga.

I'm looking at the rides, and I think the best ride of Winterfest will be........... Woodstock's Gliders, along with Mystic. I would love it if KI put Rudolph Nose decorations on the front of each Dodgem vehicle.
-
But they weren’t careful. It’s cheaper to tear down and rebuild than to retrofit.
-
So granted that WOF Winterfest rides are listed, can we assume the same with KI?

It’s on the back wall, side that riders exit.

And this info “came in like a wrecking ball”!
