rotag Posted March 11, 2011 Posted March 11, 2011 my new opinion is prehistoric bathrooms for xbase, xbase rethemed to prehistoric. merry-go-square with giant prehistoric chickens that go boingboingboing. & a bronto jet coaster.
Oldschool75 Posted March 11, 2011 Posted March 11, 2011 Maybe the return of The Demon! Gordon Bombay knows what I'm talking about. He posted a pic of an old Arrow Looper that is close to here at an abandoned amusement park.
KILateNighter Posted March 12, 2011 Posted March 12, 2011 Now it says test over the video of Don Helbig: http://www.visitking...k/mud/index.cfm EDIT: Now it says "test - Don test run - Do Not Publish!' right above the video!
FOFreak Posted March 12, 2011 Posted March 12, 2011 Whatever this new attraction may be, I'm not expecting much theming. (sorry to disappoint the dino-hopefuls here) And if by chance it is themed; I expect it to slowly deteriorate in the next few years. Because we ALL know how good Cedar Fair is about theming.. Am I expecting something exciting? No. Its far to late in the off-season to start building something significant in size. (Unless there is already construction going on that they haven't been showing us?)
jdawg1998 Posted March 12, 2011 Posted March 12, 2011 Now it says test over the video of Don Helbig: http://www.visitking...k/mud/index.cfm DOJFOGJREGHORAENEOGHBJENBUEB! Sorry, just started having an annoyed attack.
DaveStroem Posted March 12, 2011 Posted March 12, 2011 I think that an Intamin water ride similar to Shoot the Rapids but Dino themed could fit most of the clues. "Turn back the clock on thrill" could also refer to the keeton keelboats. The only thing that doesn't fit is the timeline if this __________ is to be open in 2011. It now says "test - Don test run - Do Not Publish!"
Maglados Posted March 12, 2011 Posted March 12, 2011 Well on the main website on the banner... if you look in the right hand corner you see something that looks like teeth or something of a creature... So who knows... Maybe they are just leading us to one thing and actually are doing something else. But I do believe it has something to do with the images they have on the area by the X-base becasue the picture they have of it on the teaser page has trees marked and it seems to fit pretty well but thats what I think >
Ashers Posted March 12, 2011 Posted March 12, 2011 Hmm....now the picture of the trees seems to be gone! At least it is when I click on it..... And also, does anything actually specifically say that whatever this may or may not be will even be OPENING in 2011? Or does it just say they'll announce something in 2011? Wow, that was a rambley post....
bkroz Posted March 12, 2011 Posted March 12, 2011 This may be me reading too far into it, but I could swear Don says "worlds largest animatronic dinosaur" around 20 seconds. Watch the video again and try to see it from his mouth movement. I would almost bet that he AT LEAST says dinosaur. ^it will be announced March 18th, and as someone mentioned, the video is titled "...what's coming in 2011." that's probably not them trying to be sheisty.
KILateNighter Posted March 12, 2011 Posted March 12, 2011 Now above the video it says: "Website URLs are so easy to change...and put in whatever you'd like" Click change in this phrase on KI's website here and it brings you here! Thats the same EXACT phrase Diamondback FOF said on post #178
m2raptor Posted March 12, 2011 Posted March 12, 2011 Now above the video it says: "Website URLs are so easy to change...and put in whatever you'd like" Click change in this phrase on KI's website here and it brings you here! I was about to say the same thing. Now they are just playing with us. At least now we have another picture to reference....for now.

They are playing with US as that phrase KI said was what one of the members said HERE! Not trying to point you out Diamondback FOF but your phrase on post 178 made KI's website!
CoastersRZ Posted March 12, 2011 Posted March 12, 2011 Just shows to all those people that didn`t believe, the park DOES read this site...
Oldschool75 Posted March 12, 2011 Posted March 12, 2011 The mud picture is now gone. But I have learned to screen capture stuff. lol For those of you who have not seen it before it was removed.
CoastersRZ Posted March 12, 2011 Posted March 12, 2011 I spy someone using Windows 7! How do you like it so far? I have Vista on my laptop, and all the computers at work are still on Windows XP. Not to hijack the topic or anything!
KILateNighter Posted March 12, 2011 Posted March 12, 2011 I spy someone using Windows 7! How do you like it so far? I have Vista on my laptop, and all the computers at work are still on Windows XP. Not to hijack the topic or anything! Not to butt in on you converstaion but all my computers use 7 and it is 100x better than Vista which I don't like.
FOFreak Posted March 12, 2011 Posted March 12, 2011 Not to hijack the conversation as well, but I use Windows 7 and LOVE it. But seriously, I'm loving these clue type things we keep getting! Its annoying, but I love it at the same time! I feel like they are totally screwing with us, while simultaneously giving a select number of us hints. Idk about some of you, but I'm going to be mashing my refresh button for the next couple of days!
Oldschool75 Posted March 12, 2011 Posted March 12, 2011 Win7 is soooooooooooooooooo much better, compared to older windows products. I am also a ubuntu user.
Diamondback FOF Posted March 12, 2011 Posted March 12, 2011 Now above the video it says: "Website URLs are so easy to change...and put in whatever you'd like" Click change in this phrase on KI's website here and it brings you here!

Wait, I'm kinda confused since those links no longer take you to a valid thing (I get an error message). What happened?? And I feel REALLY special I made it to their website!! hahaha
FOFreak Posted March 12, 2011 Posted March 12, 2011 From what I gather, Don copied your quote onto the Teaser page, and then linked a picture of what looked to be mud. Just to toy with us. It was quickly removed.
FOFreak Posted March 12, 2011 Posted March 12, 2011 I think this weekend would be a great time for a certain someone to take a flyover of Kings Island. *cough* Monroe *cough*
Beast1979 Posted March 12, 2011 Posted March 12, 2011 And I was the one who pointed out the text in the URL. I feel special and scared at the same time. Kings Island, if you're reading this, please don't rip up my pass! I want to give you guys money this year!
Diamondback FOF Posted March 12, 2011 Posted March 12, 2011 ^^^Ahhhh okay. That's kinda funny hehe And I can still get to that pic. On the teaser page under pictures, there is the one of the trees and then a small box with a red x (like an image is missing). When I click the red x it opens the photo viewer thing that site uses and the mud pic pops up ^^I second that!! ^that made me laugh
Diamondback FOF Posted March 12, 2011 Posted March 12, 2011 Alrighty I just went back to it...it isNT there now but was right before I made that post...
KILateNighter Posted March 12, 2011 Posted March 12, 2011 Now the X's are there under pictures there are 2 of them but they won't load... hmmm EDIT: Found another photo: http://www.visitkingsisland.com/_upload/galleries/mud_photo_gallery/mud_3.jpg If you look closly you can see a flip flop? They seem to have two galleries with the same photos Dino photo gallery and Mud Photo Gallery?
KIfan73 Posted March 12, 2011 Posted March 12, 2011 Three photos are now posted...(what's that one thread about you might be a KI fanatic if...)
Guest TombraiderTy Posted March 12, 2011 Posted March 12, 2011 Just to archive what's been posted already, before the park deletes or changes it up... URL: http://www.visitkingsisland.com/_upload/galleries/mud_photo_gallery/mud_1.jpg'>http://www.visitkingsisland.com/_upload/galleries/mud_photo_gallery/mud_1.jpg URL: http://www.visitkingsisland.com/_upload/galleries/dino_photo_gallery/mud_2.jpg URL: http://www.visitkingsisland.com/_upload/galleries/dino_photo_gallery/mud_3.jpg As you can see, it seems the park let slip (purposely or by accident, I don't know) "dino_photo_gallery" in the second picture. It has since been changed, however.
KILateNighter Posted March 12, 2011 Posted March 12, 2011 the dino photo gallery URL's still work though...
Guest TombraiderTy Posted March 12, 2011 Posted March 12, 2011 Also the fence in the third and newest picture appears to be the fence in the spot of the former Laser Tag Dome. I do not believe there was a gap anywhere in this fence, meaning the hole in the newest picture was recently added. A hole would typically be added to gain access through the fence, for construction- or whatever other reason- on the other side.
