Expected Speed of Rougarou
I originally posted that picture showing the unpainted trims, but they have since been painted. Looks like they are staying, but wonder if they will be used. It could be possible that to save the cost of removing and fabricating new track, they just painted over it to save time and money without the intention to ever use it again. Then they will probably be turned off. Thanks for the info.

Which old ride to return?
Flying Eagles. Ferris wheel would be good too.
-
Big Coasters In Future?
A ride like Ricochet at Carowinds would be a cool edition. I think it could be a great fit in X-Base or something.

If they tear down Son Of Beast...
Thats going to be hard to see because they are kind of not liked by most people anymore. Also it has been a while since a brand new stand up was builtThat maybe but if you think about it. All that needs to happen is for B&M to redesign the harness. Plus inverts weren't built for a long time. So stand ups may come back one day. Yea. Good point. I could see them re-designing stand ups.

Someone posted a photo on here I forget who but it showed that the trim brake on the first drop was not painted. Everything else was but it wasn't.

Was anyone at the park on Friday around 7:30-9 in the Action Zone?
Lets go into more detail. By Action Zone (sorry for not making this clear) that general area. The far left side of the park.

Yea. I know its not a big concern. I thought it was interesting the amount of light thats were out. Also they were back on like an hour later.

I was wondering because I noticed something off about something in the Action Zone. Edit: The lights were out on some random parts of the Action Zone. Such as the the Adventure Express lights (queue line and the chain lift lights), Banshee had a couple of lights on within the layout but not all, and the Blue Racer had its chainlift lights off.

Article: Designing Phantom Theater (Theme Park University)
Wow. Like many people mentioned above, thanks for sharing this. I went on this when I was little and I barely remember it. Once again, thanks for sharing that article. I agree that it would be nice to see a different cooler ride. I know this is a wild idea but it would be cool to see a new ride.

Found this article: http://www.screamscape.com/html/kings_island.htm Note: It will not work at first but just re-type the 'htm' and it should work.

Trip 10/17/14
I went to Kings Island on Friday and it was jammed packed when we got there. The crowd didn't thin out untill 12:10 AM. Rides ridden (or mazes) (In order): - Viking Fury - Adventure Express - The Racer - Delta Delta Die - Kill Mart - The Vortex - Backlot Stunt Coaster - Boo Blasters - Banshee I decided not to ride Diamondback because the lines pretty much filled the queue line. The rides with the longest wait time was: Diamondback, The Beast, Backlot Stunt Coaster, Bansee (sort of but the get trains out fast). Adventure Express is one of my favorites at Kings Island because at night time it is just AWESOME. If you ever see a worker at Auntie Anne's pretzels thats is in uniform for the cinnamon rolls place (can't recall the name), you should definantly get a pretzel because she made them 3 times bigger than a normal pretzel would be. It was amazing. I also think Kings Island should fix up Boo Blasters a bit Thats all I got from this trip. Just thought I would share.

Vortex acting werid when I went last. (last weekend)
I rode it Friday as well and I enjoyed it as well. I honestly would hate to see the ride go. I was suprised it had a big line on Friday which is good to see.

Vortex acting werid when I went last. (last weekend)
It got stuck at the top for about 15 minutes. Then it took 5 - 10 minutes to get it lowed down (they were lowering it slow) At least this particular WindSeeker has not had multi-hour evacs like most of the others. At least none that I have heard of. I wonder if something has been changed to make the lowering process quicker than it first was when the other parks had people stuck at the top for 2 and 3 hours. Yea. I haven't heard anything about it being stuck for more than an hour.

Running fine Friday. Must of been a wheel problem because what IndyGuy said it was an easy fix.
