Umm...we already have one of those. It's called Diamondback. Having 2 B&M Hypercoasters would be a waste of money, unless you build it right next to DB using a similar layout and make it like Racer... Quote
Diamondback FOF Posted July 28, 2009 Posted July 28, 2009 OK, here's an idea: you are given $100,000,000 to spend on the park. What do you do? Nothing is off limits, so if you wish to remove or modify rides, add new rides, expand or add new areas, fix up the park, etc. But you cannot spend over $100M. Since Diamondback cost $22M to build, I assume $100M is plenty to do quite a lot. Have Fun. i would buy a coaster like kingda ka that is faster longer and taller. i would buy a coaster giga coaster better than Millennium force . i would nuke the crypt just kidding tear it down also blacklot stunt coaster. i would make an b and m invert. make another floorless coaster like superman ultimate flight last if i had some more money make add a coaster to The Beast series. also fix soon of beast and smooth it out and put the loop back in there. add little inovations around the park. add a series to Delirium but this one goes all the way around and make everyday the park closes at 12:00 Cedar Fair did; it's at (partially) Kings Dominion.

So your saying we can't have 2two B&M hypers if they are not racing? What if one had a loop, or if one was a flyer? Quote
Diamondback FOF Posted July 28, 2009 Posted July 28, 2009 Jackson wants more B&Ms...... yummmmyyyy....... What coaster is that? Quote
TylerRider Posted September 26, 2009 Posted September 26, 2009 I would put a 120mph coaster in x base. Not as tall as TTD but maby 230ft, but have a loop at the top. Gain some speed at the end, and then hve it make a wierd noise. Boom sparks everywhere! than water flies everywhere. Sirens going off. est. 20million Then I will put water ziplines, diving boards and a pool about half the size of the big one, but some parts are up to 12ft. est 16million this will include 1 new store and a Billibong's surf House (food snacks ect.) and THE TRENCH a 200ft water slide and addional I would invest 30M in much more energy smart power system. Turn the Kings Island Story plane in to a great timelike with real artifacts. est 4 million I they have to tear down SOB then save the 30m left for a coaster named THE Son of Beast FOREVER A double SOB that races. On a 4/5 scale Quote
Dbfan Posted September 26, 2009 Posted September 26, 2009 -Knock Down Crypt. Start a whole new area. -In that area, 2 new flat rides, A Swing and a larg Ferris Wheel. And a new kind of coaster over 500ft. (not just a launch and return coaster) -knock down FLight Deck, and use the same station, but build a inverted coaster cimilar to raptor and theme in creativly.

Just remembered, I have ridden a B&M Hyper Invert in No Limits called "The Bat Returns". It stands a whopping 270 feet tall, has 6 inversions, and is just awesome.

pkiboy Posted October 6, 2009 Posted October 6, 2009 Jackson wants more B&Ms...... yummmmyyyy....... What coaster is that? At Worlds of Fun. Thats my photo I took back in July. Its a very good B&M Invert. Quote
Coney Islander Posted October 6, 2009 Posted October 6, 2009 Lemme see... 1. I would add one or two German- themed shows in Festhaus, a broadway- style show, and bring back Salt Water Circus. 2. Replace Action Theater with a new castle- themed area, including... a. Large castle containing a comedic dark ride b. Log flume deep in the woods behind the castle c. Wild mouse roller coaster d. New show that takes people from the audience to join in e. Launched coaster that is also castle- themed f. GIANT Ferris Wheel g. Antique Cars 3. Fix the Festhaus Clock and bring bagpipes and german food back to Octoberfest. 4. Add a large assortment of classic rides on the Mall (Whip, Giant Slide, Eyerly stuff, Tilt- a- Whirl, Bayern Kurve etc.) 5. Repaint Top Gun and retheme all the rides that don't really fit in their certain themed sections... *Crypt* *Cough Cough* Edit- 6. Put the rest in Cedar Fair savings, for a rainy day. Quote
thejoker34 Posted October 6, 2009 Posted October 6, 2009 1)fix cprypt 2)take out flight deck, add a LIM launch coaster 3)repaint action theater plus add new movies, fix all broken seats, etc. 4)make the ending of Adventure Express good, not just "here we gooo! awhhhh " 5)use rest of money on Halloween Haunt haunt's Quote
maverick2007 Posted October 7, 2009 Posted October 7, 2009 Dueling B&M inverts with an awesome queue much like DD P.S -- 200th post!! Quote
beastrider97 Posted October 8, 2009 Posted October 8, 2009 Well the onw way KI would be improved is...... remove SOB and put a new record breaking roller coaster in its place. Quote
rsipus13 Posted October 31, 2009 Posted October 31, 2009 first get a giant Ferris Wheel second spend the rest buying more land Quote
Diamondback FOF Posted October 31, 2009 Posted October 31, 2009 You know, they only use a little more than half of the land they own... Quote
TylerRider Posted October 31, 2009 Posted October 31, 2009 I would spend it on a massive mechanical bird that flys over KI and sings surfin bird, and breathes fire! Quote
Pillsberry123 Posted December 7, 2009 Posted December 7, 2009 First I would remove Son of Beast and Flight Deck and add a B&M Invert and a GCI Wooden Coaster. Next I would improve the life of The Racer and The Beast, making them last longer. Next I would work on maintaining and preserving Coney Mall. Paint the classic flats, buildings, and improve maintenance. I would hold the rest back for repairs and a bigger project for the future. I don't know if I went over the limit, but I tried. I tried to keep ideas as realistic as possible, and not just immediately ask for 3 Top Thrill Dragsters. Quote
The Interpreter Posted December 8, 2009 Posted December 8, 2009 ...which is a good thing. I'd hate to see Mr. Kinzel have three heart attacks (he has often said Top Thrill Dragster is perhaps the biggest mistake of his career...but then again, he said that before the Paramount Parks acquisition!) Quote
IBEW_Sparky Posted December 8, 2009 Posted December 8, 2009 Not to mention the decision that remains to be made or not made concerning Big Dipper. Quote
CedarPointer Posted December 8, 2009 Posted December 8, 2009 I would LOVE to see KI get an Enterprise ride. Yes, I know, we had SkyLab. CP has an Enterprise which is almost empty all the time. Quote
Guest TombraiderTy Posted December 8, 2009 Posted December 8, 2009 2. Replace Action Theater with a new castle- themed area, including... a. Large castle containing a comedic dark ride b. Log flume deep in the woods behind the castle c. Wild mouse roller coaster d. New show that takes people from the audience to join in e. Launched coaster that is also castle- themed f. GIANT Ferris Wheel g. Antique Cars You do know that The Beast is only a couple hundred feet behind Action Theater? You probably would have enough room to add all that in the area between, behind, and around The Racer, but it'd be a tight-squeeze and the victim of too-little-space and too-many-guests. Not necessarily using the $100-million here, but a few small things I really think Kings Island should work on: -Bringing some life to the former Paramount Story. It's pathetic that the water-features were off all of 2009, leaving the small pool to end-up looking (and smelling) like a sewer. -Repainting Racer- compare the coaster in 1972 to today. It's not currently in horrible condition by any means, but returning the patriotic paint-job would add some nice beauty to Coney Mall. I'd also love to see the track's entire layout receive a string of lights, similar to what's found on Wildcat, Lightning Racer, and Comet at Hersheypark. -The floral clock, date, Boomerang Bay, and Living Liberty Bell are all beautiful, as is the landscaping through-out the rest of the park, but some topiaries would look nice. Perhaps we'll see a Snoopy one next year? A floral "Kings Island" would also fit nice somewhere. -The new Vekoma restraints supposedly work miracles for the coasters they're added too. Invertigo please? -I enjoyed seeing more atmopshere entertainment through-out the park this year- I saw stilt walkers, a magician, a juggler, and more. Adding more in 2010 would be great (cough-Clown-Band-cough) Just a few different things, all small-scale with positive results. Quote

Why did he say that, isen't it a good ride? Quote
Coney Islander Posted December 8, 2009 Posted December 8, 2009 I had no idea how close The Beast and Action theater are... But still, no matter how inaccurate these maps are, The Cedar Point style would be horrific... Edit- (A response to Tyler Rider) It may be a great ride, but maintenance costs are bad, and it is extremely unreliable. Quote

I could of been because of popularity, or because of what you said. Does Kingda Ka have the same problems? Quote
Guest rcfreak339 Posted December 8, 2009 Posted December 8, 2009 ^Yes it does. It's hard to maintain and is REALLY unreliable. Dick has already stated that TTD was the worst mistake his ever made, KI needs to stay away from those big 400 foot 100mph monsters for now. Quote
mech Posted January 5, 2010 Posted January 5, 2010 id have to say build a dome over the park for year round awesomeness ((i hope 100m would work)) Quote
