CincyMan98 Posted April 1, 2010 Share Posted April 1, 2010 It's not the ride that's bad. Actually, it looks great. But the name. Ruins it........ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
count_of_tuscany Posted April 1, 2010 Share Posted April 1, 2010 Sorry, but we are unable to continue this question and answer forum effective immediately. Thanks for your understanding. Cedar Point's online blog posted a similar comment just about an hour or so ago: Good morning, friends. It is with very heavy hearts that we announce that the OnPoint blog will no longer continue after today. The two of us have decided to focus on our core responsibilities at the park and can no longer keep the commitment to do regular updates. To those who've been following us from the beginning, we thank you. Keep an eye on Shoot the Rapids construction updates in the ride's photo gallery. Again, thank you, and Ride On. http://www.cedarpoin.../blog/index.cfm I'm assuming this is an April Fool's gag. Perhaps they've coordinated efforts... If it's for real, I'm glad they kept it up while they did. If it's fake, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
74Gibson Posted April 1, 2010 Share Posted April 1, 2010 If Diamondback was called Poop Shuttle I would ride it no less. I see your point but there is a lot of whining (not to say you specifically) on amusement park forums. Like the people that were angry and saying bad things about CF because i305 is shorter than Millie. Come on folks, your getting a Giga with an amazing looking spaghetti bowl of track. Boo Blasters looks awesome from the pics. The name has grown on me and I really think it's cute now... and I never hear boob anymore when people say it I really hope they do continue the 5@5. It was a nice connection and I felt like it gave an inside look at the park and the personalioties and opinions of some of it's employees.

CincyMan98 Posted April 1, 2010 Share Posted April 1, 2010 If Diamondback was called Poop Shuttle I would ride it no less. That just made me laugh out loud! But I would ride it too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Theora Posted April 1, 2010 Share Posted April 1, 2010 If Diamondback was called Poop Shuttle I would ride it no less. That just made me laugh out loud! But I would ride it too. I'd probably ride it more, taking advantage of the short line left by the people who refuse to ride the Poop Shuttle! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vortexfan Posted April 1, 2010 Share Posted April 1, 2010 It's probably the same things that Carowinds (and Cedar Point?) has with Snoopy in the middle and some signs around him: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CincyMan98 Posted April 2, 2010 Share Posted April 2, 2010 Not sure if this was mentioned, but this came from Kings Island's Twitter about an hour ago. The 2010 Park Guide and Maps are here!

CoastersRZ Posted April 2, 2010 Share Posted April 2, 2010 Or is it a sign of the times? Remember what is scheduled to happen in one week. Seems like a missed marketing opportunity if the blogs do disappear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bkroz Posted April 2, 2010 Author Share Posted April 2, 2010 Any company that decides to actually alter a service or stop providing a service on April 1st is, pardon the pun, foolish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
