Beast1979 Posted March 28, 2008 Posted March 28, 2008 ^As in, said somewhere in these forums, plans change. Things happen, and once concreate plans turn to a distant rumor. If it was sure that we were getting the Addams Familly coaster, than he tells. But if plans change to the Italian Job Stunt Track, it's not his fault! Give him some space. Don't beat this guy down, he could be right! Quote
Gordon Bombay Posted March 28, 2008 Posted March 28, 2008 I never realized that high prices and bad services were fine as long as others in the industry and comparable industries did the same. If Cedar Fair wants to thrive, they need to be better than the best...not slightly worse than a bad average. Who ever said it was fine to be the same as everyone else? Certainly not me. I just do not believe that CF should be thrown into a catagory by themselves when there are many others out there just as guilty. Let's not give out any false impressions. While I do agree that there are worse and comparable situations in the industry, this is a board about Kings Island, with people who will be planning trips to Kings Island and spending money at Kings Island that they could choose to spend elsewhere so the high food prices do factor in quite a bit. I'm sure if someone complained to Guest Relations about high food prices they wouldn't say "well everyone else is doing it!" At least, I hope they don't say that. Quote

I believe they would say are prices have been reviewed heavily upon the growing prices of the economy. I assure you we have done everything possibly to keep your stay as enjoyable as possible. I have had to answer this same question countless times and this is what I say(btw I dont not work for KI) Quote
hauntguy Posted March 28, 2008 Posted March 28, 2008 So the path from the tower to The Beast, the "cornstalkers" location, will be closed... thus creating a longer path to The Beast! Well, I'm sure that won't stop some people from getting back there! You also have a GREAT view of the construction from the employees dining area behind IS Showplace... not to mention a great view from the tower... KI, there not hiding anything! -Hauntguy Quote
Beast1979 Posted March 28, 2008 Posted March 28, 2008 ^I don't even think they'll try to hide it! (Not saying that's a bad thing! ) Quote

Beast1979 Posted March 28, 2008 Posted March 28, 2008 ^Ohh, he's teasing you. Ignore him. (If you're interested, the Cabana Lady is supposed to be the Water park Equivelent of the Dip n' Dots Guy) Quote
KIBeast Posted March 28, 2008 Posted March 28, 2008 And since the Dip-n-Dots guy is here, I think he should spill all of KI's plans for the next three years. Quote
Beast1979 Posted March 28, 2008 Posted March 28, 2008 ^you know what, ease up man. If you want to insult the guy, (which I do not support in the first place), do it over PM. I don't want to listen to someone insult someone else because they have a bad rep. Quote
Dip n'Dots guy Posted March 28, 2008 Posted March 28, 2008 ok ok here we go Year 1 Name the Oaramount rides crappy names so that they like to tourture the associates that must say the names 1000000 times a day Year 2 The first batch of magical cards for mind controll are givin out so that you pay 7.97 for a burger Year 3 aka The Final Solution CF kills off all the people that woulnt pay for the 77.97 burgers, oh and FOF breaks causeing 20 deaths and of cours ceader fair tears down The Beast so that they can make a better Hyper......

KIBeast Posted March 28, 2008 Posted March 28, 2008 ^At least someone has a sense of humor around here. ^^Dude, the winking smilie means you are kidding. Guess you didn't figure that one out. Quote
Beast1979 Posted March 28, 2008 Posted March 28, 2008 I don't beleive any of it. Exept the part about Cedar Fair Taking out The Beast to make way for a new Steel. ^No Seriously, I Really Beleive that!) Quote

Wyhich means insted of 7.00 anoh yd hour i get 700 dollers and hour! @Beast1779 Cant get anything past you can i? Quote
WooferBearATL Posted March 28, 2008 Posted March 28, 2008 Does anyone else feel like their head is going to explode after trying to read Dip N'Dots posts? Quote
Dip n'Dots guy Posted March 28, 2008 Posted March 28, 2008 Is it that hard to read? They hirred me cause i can sell not cause i can spell! Quote
Beast1979 Posted March 28, 2008 Posted March 28, 2008 Dip n' Dots: Tell me something Rediculous, (A Predicted Accident killing 20 Riders) And I'll ignore it. Tell me something Beleivable, (The Beast being Replaced by a steel) And I'll Beleive it. Quote
Dip n'Dots guy Posted March 28, 2008 Posted March 28, 2008 The Beast? The Longest wooden in the world? and gets at least 700 peple an hour(not toataly sure about taht but its a guesstamate) im sure as anything they woulnt get rid of it unless a massave accedent happens on it, wouldnt it be creepy that in three years theres an accedent on FOF? Quote
Beast1979 Posted March 28, 2008 Posted March 28, 2008 ^That would be Hilarious. And VERY SCARY! But, If Cedar Fair thinks that the New Steel Will get more ridership than The Beast does, Than I can see CF doing that. Quote
Dip n'Dots guy Posted March 28, 2008 Posted March 28, 2008 mehh well look at this when FH opened i waited an entire school day yes 7 hours to ride it(kinda worth it but i dont like going def on teh way up ont eh lift hill) but other rides around there got attenction too Zypher actually had a line! so i dont think The Beast will loose any popularty//.

KIBeast Posted March 28, 2008 Posted March 28, 2008 ^^^^If you believe that, then you are pretty gullible. Quote
