Titan Posted January 12, 2013 Posted January 12, 2013 Which do you prefer more, wooden or steel coasters? Quote
malem Posted January 12, 2013 Posted January 12, 2013 ^ Don't his KI ride counts provide that answer already? 1 Quote
Titan Posted January 12, 2013 Posted January 12, 2013 My ride count is probably 70% wooden coasters, but I still prefer steel coasters. Not by a lot though, I still love classic wooden coasters. 1 Quote
Diamondback96 Posted January 12, 2013 Posted January 12, 2013 Why do humans exist? Also: is there anything new for 2013? Anything? Even new trash cans? (Edit: Didn't realize that DA was being expanded. What about besides that?) 1 Quote
SonofBaconator Posted January 13, 2013 Posted January 13, 2013 Don, what can we expect form Dinosaurs Alive for the 2013 season? Quote
stashua123 Posted January 17, 2013 Posted January 17, 2013 Are the 40th aniversery cups from last year still valid this year with the unlimited and cheap refill deal? Quote
Sonofbeast2.0 Posted January 17, 2013 Author Posted January 17, 2013 Can anything be said about the Fountains that Mr.Ouimet said their will be changes to? Will it happen this year? Quote
Oldschool75 Posted January 17, 2013 Posted January 17, 2013 So Don, any big plans for ride number 12,000 on The Racer? 1 Quote
Delirium13 Posted January 17, 2013 Posted January 17, 2013 Any chances of the old front gate/International Street music coming back? Thanks again for taking the time to answer these questions! 3 Quote
jcgoble3 Posted January 18, 2013 Posted January 18, 2013 So Don, any big plans for ride number 12,000 on The Racer? He informed us at Coasting for Kids that he has chosen to retire from riding The Racer at 11,999 rides. I take it that means that he will not get number 12,000. 1 Quote
Jr for Birdy Posted January 18, 2013 Posted January 18, 2013 I noticed Don defended himself about my post about the guys who left coasting for kids,but he never gave me any info on the event? When i said get both trains runnning,I can make it happen. Lets all make it happen! I watched last year coasting for kids, i was sad to see what I seen,it should be every KI lover to get involved,lets all get involved! 1 Quote
CedarPointer Posted January 18, 2013 Posted January 18, 2013 Are the 40th aniversery cups from last year still valid this year with the unlimited and cheap refill deal? I'm not Don, but in the past you were always allowed to use old cups, as long as they said Kings Island on them. Nevermind, interesting... Quote
Guest KingsIslandPR Posted January 18, 2013 Posted January 18, 2013 Are the 40th aniversery cups from last year still valid this year with the unlimited and cheap refill deal? A new souvenir cup program will be introduced this year. Cups from previous seasons will not be valid for refills. 1 Quote

When i said get both trains runnning,I can make it happen. Lets all make it happen! I watched last year coasting for kids, i was sad to see what I seen,it should be every KI lover to get involved,lets all get involved! Nothing for Coasting for Kids 2013 has been announced yet. It typically isn't until a little later in the year. As far as having both trains running, they have one side of Racer open for the event (last year was Blue, previous years was Red). There were enough participants to just about fill both trains on the one side. In the early part of the day, it's just the one side running for the event. Then, once the park opens to the GP, the other side opens to them and we can actually race after doing our many practice laps! Mrs. Gator & GatorGirl said they want to join me this year, after hearing how much fun we had last year. Of course I then got to thinking, maybe we might do it at CP this year. Magnum and Gemini would be great to marathon too! 2 Quote

One side is reserved for the Coasting for Kids participants, the other for non-participants. Information regarding this year's Coasting for Kids event will be available soon. There will be one other ride as part of the event besides The Racer this year. 4 Quote
Captain Nemo Posted January 18, 2013 Posted January 18, 2013 This may be a long answer for you, Don, but I have always wondered... How much do new projects at other parks (not owned by Cedar Fair) affect CF or KI's decision in new attractions, shows, and events? Do you look into how guests at those parks react to their new attraction and base what you find as research for a potential attraction here at Kings Island? Also, are there circumstances where you and another park not owned by CF may work together to complete a common goal? 3 Quote
Guest KingsIslandPR Posted January 18, 2013 Posted January 18, 2013 So Don, any big plans for ride number 12,000 on The Racer? Nothing planned. I don't know if or when I might ride The Racer again to hit the 12,000 mark. 2 Quote

SonofBaconator Posted January 19, 2013 Posted January 19, 2013 Whats your favorite family ride at Kings Island? Quote
jcgoble3 Posted January 19, 2013 Posted January 19, 2013 Information regarding this year's Coasting for Kids event will be available soon. There will be one other ride as part of the event besides The Racer this year. Ooooh, a second ride! I'm interested to hear the details. Who can we contact to lobby, bribe, beg, or plead for and hour of ERT on Saturdays? Please? 7 Quote
Jr for Birdy Posted January 19, 2013 Posted January 19, 2013 The only reason I see Invertigo apart of ERT is because its at the front of the park for all to see,however I hate how its spread from one ride far from the other.I would much rather see ERT rides close together,maybe DB,Beast and add Backlot would be nice.My younger child would also like to see Woodstock Express added to ERT. 1 Quote
Colonel_SoB_fan Posted January 19, 2013 Posted January 19, 2013 I thought Woodstock Express was open for ERT last year? Quote
Jr for Birdy Posted January 19, 2013 Posted January 19, 2013 Maybe it was? I think I recall it was hardly ever running during ERT though,I know several visits it wasnt running when we got there. Quote
