Jayblazer Posted June 13, 2013 Posted June 13, 2013 @Secondson you don't have to try and decipher everything Terp puts.. I have read every post in this thread and I am eagerly wanting to know what's going in but no way am I going to try and decipher what he is saying. IF he knows good for him and if he knows its only because someone trusted him enough that he would not say. That kind of trust is earned not just handed out. At this point go ahead and look at the field, check out the footers, make some guesses but don't put pressure on your self to figure out what it is as no prize will be awarded. This is an AMUSEMENT park. Right now some people are being amused while we figure what their building for our amusement. 11
Bennett Posted June 13, 2013 Posted June 13, 2013 Yesterday, they were working furiously on a number of footers behind Slingshot, as well as newer ones in the space between where we think the transfer track will be, and the triangle footers. 8
Zayzayd13 Posted June 13, 2013 Posted June 13, 2013 Can anyone get a photo from te top of the eiffel to show this "furious" work?
Zayzayd13 Posted June 13, 2013 Posted June 13, 2013 I watched a video on Youtube where Coaster Radio interviewed Matt Ouimet at the GK media day. He had said that there were no plans on changing the front entrance of KI because "it is pretty darn good", but there are other areas within the park they could work with. (my guess is a new midway). Just throwing that out there
PKIVortex Posted June 13, 2013 Posted June 13, 2013 Could you provide a link to that youtube video>? 1
Bennett Posted June 13, 2013 Posted June 13, 2013 Furiously, eh? Indeed. Sweat, dust flying, workers with furrowed brows, the works. Been to the park 7 times, more work going on yesterday than all 6 other trips combined. 4
Dieselwilkey Posted June 13, 2013 Posted June 13, 2013 Can anyone get a photo from te top of the eiffel to show this "furious" work? I bet you that the Eiffel Tower will have the highest ridership this year!! 6
CoasterRoller Posted June 13, 2013 Posted June 13, 2013 On the topic of "field of dreams" with the picture KI tweeted yesterday. Do you think they could be adding some sort of sports complex for baseball tournaments and other sports fields. I just can't think of what they could be hinting at with it.
TheCrypt Posted June 13, 2013 Posted June 13, 2013 Kings Island is not a sports arena. Never has, never will. In other words, I seriously doubt it.

Existential Posted June 13, 2013 Posted June 13, 2013 Furious? As in furious monkey ride overseas? Delicious...
jzarley Posted June 13, 2013 Posted June 13, 2013 The more I see/hear from Matt Ouimet the more I like him... 12
milesharrison Posted June 13, 2013 Posted June 13, 2013 I think that should be his motto/catchphrase... "It's pretty darn good." Edit... Good ole profanity filter 1

jcgoble3 Posted June 13, 2013 Posted June 13, 2013 The last two I can figure out, but what in the world was going on in the first photo?????
secondson Posted June 13, 2013 Posted June 13, 2013 What did you think we were getting secondson? If you don't mind me asking. Floorless....which was one of the two coasters I was hoping for. I interpreted Terp's "night rows" hint as "Nitro" and, upon looking at B&M's latest coasters, I noticed there's a floorless being built in India named "Nitro". @Secondson you don't have to try and decipher everything Terp puts.. I have read every post in this thread and I am eagerly wanting to know what's going in but no way am I going to try and decipher what he is saying. IF he knows good for him and if he knows its only because someone trusted him enough that he would not say. That kind of trust is earned not just handed out.

This is an AMUSEMENT park. Right now some people are being amused while we figure what their building for our amusement. I recall back in 2008 when he was giving hints about Diamondback, and I simply couldn't figure out what it was going to be. But there were some people who managed to figure it out. Others asked for hints, and someone said they'd been dropping hints the entire thread. It still went way over my head. I felt dumb. It's okay...it's not Terp's fault. He's good at what he does, and I admire that. I pride myself on understanding symbolism, so it just makes me feel inferior to think I'm so stupid I can't decipher a riddle. ha ha. OH....P.S. Thanks to the ones who pointed out the videos of Matt Ouimet. 2

lopan Posted June 14, 2013 Posted June 14, 2013 Could you provide a link to that youtube video>? That must be a hell of a good book the guy behind him is reading 2
Joncars05 Posted June 14, 2013 Posted June 14, 2013 Kings Island is not a sports arena. Never has, never will. In other words, I seriously doubt it. Dont forget the new sand volleyball courts in Soak City. I believe they had rec leagues last year. 4
glock703 Posted June 14, 2013 Posted June 14, 2013 I'm not decoding anything right now, but as a former long time Paramount Parks employee I really think it speaks volumes of the professional character of Mr.Oimet and his willingness to do interviews like he does. It's not something I think Al Weber or Jane Cooper ever did (at least to my knowledge). 2
Rcoaster10 Posted June 14, 2013 Posted June 14, 2013 Ok, since I'm new here I'm not really sure who is who. Does Terp work for KI? And does he know what the new coaster is?
coasterfreak22108 Posted June 14, 2013 Posted June 14, 2013 Ok, since I'm new here I'm not really sure who is who. Does Terp work for KI? And does he know what the new coaster is? No he does not work for KI. Maybe he does or doesn't know.

Kings Islands new B&M Giga.. wait for it.. wait for it,,, DreamWeaver...
secondson Posted June 14, 2013 Posted June 14, 2013 Ok, since I'm new here I'm not really sure who is who. Does Terp work for KI? And does he know what the new coaster is? Terp...the nickname given to "The Interpreter" is a deeply complex, mysterious entity roaming around on these boards. He usually speaks in parables and gives profoundly obvious, yet veiled, analysis of all things pertaining to Kings Island and...well, all amusement parks, really. When he gives a hint about a new project, you most likely will not be able to discern what he's talking about...yet, if you knew what it was, it would be very obvious to you. Anyway, he's a fun guy. Mention anything "Bugs Bunny", and you'll get his ear. Does he work for the park? Maybe he does, maybe he doesn't. I really don't know. But knowing him (in the very limited way I do on these boards), you simply never know. He could, but would be very good at hiding that fact. Does he know what the new coaster is? Who said it will be a new coaster? But generally speaking, you simply don't know. He probably doesn't KNOW for absolute certain, but he's very good at figuring things out....and how he does that is a huge mystery. 6
TheBEASTunchained Posted June 14, 2013 Posted June 14, 2013 Wonder how many other things he's said like that this year alone. Things that both were and were not like diversions. Sometimes if one cannot speak in riddles, parables, analogies, hints, and diversions, one is not allowed to say anything at all. For many reasons. One can be an asset, a know it all, banished, or fed in this life. Its all in relationships. It truly STARTS with who you know, later becomes what you know, and later still who knows you. Terp, who a few people know. This post may be one of the most important I've ever made. Ponder. Consider. Soon, it will be next year. Where will you be? I'm not sure of my answer. And I'd not have it any other way. Confront life with energy. Very wise words to be taken into consideration by not just some, but many.
Stitch Posted June 14, 2013 Posted June 14, 2013 Remember when construction projects were mysterious and you only knew what the company showed you. Oh internet and widespread inclusion of cameras in phones 2
BB1 Posted June 14, 2013 Posted June 14, 2013 One could be as mischievous as an Banshee, yes. BB1 has in a way developed his own way of this mind equation, all equaling to an number yet to be fully coded. In fact, the answer of every question may lie in the equation of Terpy, whom has been cracked rarely. Apage of words can mean everything to 1, but nothing to another without an anonymous interpretation. 1
