  1. Here is a better picture, but as was mentioned before this is very unlikely an official teaser from the park. I suspect you won’t see it up much longer.
  2. Its actually easy. We do not usually pronounce each letter in the acronym, rather we say the root of the acronym as a word and add whatever ride acronym were referring to. For example: Last ride of the night on The Beast would be LROTNOB, pronounced "Luh-Rot-Nob" ('The' is ommitted because it would make the pronunciation difficult) First ride of the day on Flight of Fear would be FROTDOFOF, pronounced "Fer-Rot-Dawf-Off Here, you need only to remember how to pronounce LROTNO- and FROTDO- to highlight what ride you want and when. This mnemonic is varied when your referring to different types of attractions. The main one that comes to mind is Dinosaurs Alive! Last walk of the day through Dinosaurs Alive!, would be LWOTDODA, pronounced "Luh-Watt-Dode-Uh" Take a guess at what LWETDA stood for? I know that a few friends from KIC were there with me for that one. I suppose its beneficial to elaborate that outside of, "LROTNOB" this naming device is not used religiously. It is merely a fun way of sharing a common understanding of what sounds like utter gibberish. Think of it along the lines of the personal appeal to learning a foreign language. I can see that this post is veering off topic, so allow me to bring it back: You know its off-season when you take the time to explain amusement park vernacular in hopes that it will be fused into vocabularies around the park during the upcoming season.
  3. @ohiocolts and I started using the acronym LROTNOB 3 years ago and it spread like wildfire between friends and other enthusiasts. LROTNOB is essentially a noun to us now, more so than an acronym. It also has some traditions involved too. But LROTN can be used for the last ride of any attraction. As I’m typing this out I’m realizing the complexity of our ride specific vernacular, so I’ll save you the details and leave it at this.
  4. With the addition of any new coaster in the Cedar Fair chain, the likelihood that you must store your loose articles in a locker is very high. I would like to venture that Mystic Timbers will be the same way. Since last season, rumors have been circulating that due to MT new lockers, Diamondback will be removing their station bins, and not allowing bags, souvenirs cups, etc. I could see this happening but I also think it would cause some outcry from frequent guests. Do you think this is a plausible outcome for the 2017 season?
  5. I am going to assume my first ride of the KI season will be on Banshee. I am going to be on the crew this year, so I am under the impression that we will get a ride sometime during training or before the park opens for the season.
  6. When you realize you may have to download all your funpix off the app, else they may disappear at the new year
  7. Best: -First Ride of the Season on Beast (zen) -Last ride of the season on Beast -LROTNOB in general -Daily KI&MVRR Worst: -Dining services -Not getting LROTNOB (slit), then getting escorted to DB to only not get LROTNODB. (At least I can say I rode DB in a thunderstorm)
  8. I took Ohiocolts into US which was his very first maze.https://vimeo.com/186170724https://vimeo.com/186170795 Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  9. I found it ironic that they changed the sign-up sheet to the Great Pumpkin Fest right after I tweeted at them that there is no Haunt on October 9: https://twitter.com/alec_aandjgoods/status/780173790215041025 I am excited to go regardless!
  10. I'm excited for Field of Screams. Its going to be located behind/beside the Blue Racer and make use of DA as queue. I also believe Bayou is being moved to where Cornstalkers formerly was
  11. Why move in 4 days before official move in day?
  12. They are moving what appear to be benches towards announcement area as of right now Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  13. Spotted near the Crypt building. What appears to be wood. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  14. Wow I feel moronic. I completely overlooked that detail. carry on
  15. Wait a second. Is that a genuine screen shot of VisitKingsIsland.com or did someone edit that photo, because I just got on the website and it was not on the homepage? I'm leaning towards the latter because there are 7 little dots on the bottom of the featured banner but on the webpage there are only 4 as of 12:22 PM.

  17. ...Or conveniently located next to the location of the maze that its used in the fall
  18. I'm excited for Haunt too. I hope Urgent Scare is still around this year. That place is like my Haunt home.
  19. Diamondback ERT wait time is about 30 min
  20. Edit double post Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  21. Ride less, Wait More KI ERT Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  22. Did any one get a picture of the "watch for falling trees" written out in sticks by some of the cleared area. I saw it on the train at about 5 o'clock, but was caught off guard and didn't get a pic of it Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  23. So this was just found right at the front gate You can view KIs social media accounts and take fun photos. Also they have chargers available for your battery refilling pleasure Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  24. When you identify as LGBQT+ you're doing just that, Identifying, meaning that it really is not a choice for many. There are people who are proud of who they are and want to live in said way. But there are also other people who are terrified of their feelings. They try to shake how they feel by many conventions but none are usually successful. So people who Do not want to be LGBQT+, but are, have no choice in how they live their life in that aspect. I am not trying to attack you but I am trying to add a fresh perspective. Do not blame religion because I am Christian myself, and all through out my days in Sunday school I was always taught to love my neighbor as myself. So if you are to learn a lesson from this, its not to change your entire opinion about Homosexuality, rather to teach you to be more cognizant of what you say before you say it on the internet.
  25. On preview day, I saw the sign and felt in my core "wooden coaster". My main train of thought was that it is going to be a GCI. So I was a huge supporter of TeamGCI and usually discredited TeamGiga. Now that the tables have turned and people are realizing that its going to most likely going to be a wooden coaster, the question of the manufacturer is still in the air. I am still on TeamGCI but the idea of TeamRMC is kind of warming up to me.
