jdawg1998 Posted August 2, 2013 Posted August 2, 2013 Latest update from KICentral's Facebook. Will this be the plaza/entrance for the ride or is this just where the announcement will take place? Or both? 3
YoungStud Posted August 2, 2013 Posted August 2, 2013 I think we have came to conclusion that if the person spent a year of his life to do the blue print he is in pretty bad shape. 1
KI FANATIC 37 Posted August 2, 2013 Posted August 2, 2013 I don't think it will have nine inversion. I only counted around 7 from the blueprints. I am probably wrong though. 1
calakapepe Posted August 2, 2013 Posted August 2, 2013 Has anyone looked at the Steven Schaefer Associates inc. stamp at 7:00 in the video?? And I agree with Shaggy, shame the project couldn't have been concealed for just one more week. (if it has actually been leaked) And those fences around the new bricks outside the construction zone look like Vortex's haha Leaked? Everything posted on this forum is public record. Poor word choice; I think I fixed it.
rcwizard13 Posted August 2, 2013 Posted August 2, 2013 For the inversions, I can't see no more than 6 or 7 from those blueprints. Where are some of you getting 8 and 9 from? 3

Perhaps Warren County needs to do a better job keeping smartphones away from high profile project plans.
Oldschool75 Posted August 2, 2013 Posted August 2, 2013 OK so after getting my calculations figured out. I'm thinking the lift will be between 170-200 ft 1

CoasterGeek101 Posted August 2, 2013 Posted August 2, 2013 I get 4g LTE. I am not worried about getting a signal. With so many people posting to YouTube, Twitter, and other sites all at once - even LTE is bound to be slow. (Not trying to discourage you, just be prepared for the stream to cut out!) By the way, if Ustream gives you any issues, you can always push to my icecast server and post that link. Yeah, well aware of that. I'll still give it a try though, and if it doesn't work, so be it.
rhit2004 Posted August 2, 2013 Posted August 2, 2013 Channel 5 (WLWT) is teasing the blueprints for tonight's 11:00 newscast.
KI FANATIC 37 Posted August 2, 2013 Posted August 2, 2013 OK so after getting my calculations figured out. I'm thinking the lift will be between 150- 180 ft I hope its closer to 180 or even higher. I don't see it being higher than 210.
locostitch Posted August 2, 2013 Posted August 2, 2013 Hey guys those so called helixes. Maybe those are inclined loops
YoungStud Posted August 2, 2013 Posted August 2, 2013 if your going to spend that coin to build a invert you may as well build it to about 200' to overtake alpengeist. 4

BoddaH1994 Posted August 2, 2013 Author Posted August 2, 2013 As stated above - for those of you in the Cincinnati Market, WLWT Ch 5 was out at the park today and they are going to do a story on the new attraction on their 11:00 news broadcast. 8
kirbias1 Posted August 2, 2013 Posted August 2, 2013 The record for length is only 4,086.4'. which inverted is that?
kirbias1 Posted August 2, 2013 Posted August 2, 2013 pyranese nice call. that is only 147 ft tall and has 6 inversions. the possibilities for KI's are endless.

Hope they don't screw things up for the announcement...as if most of the information hasn't already been "decoded". Hard to keep something a secret these days... 1
jdawg1998 Posted August 2, 2013 Posted August 2, 2013 Maybe a Plaza like Gatekeeper at Cedar Point I hope. Or even better...Leviathan...with the fountain and everything... 4

Hope they don't screw things up for the announcement...as if most of the information hasn't already been "decoded". Hard to keep something a secret these days... The blueprints we're seeing - assuming they're legit - tell us very little. It's a vague snapshot. There is still plenty more to decode. 9
Millennium310 Posted August 2, 2013 Posted August 2, 2013 I really hope this video is a fake, REALLY REALLY HOPE, but sadly i think this is real, a lot smaller than expected. It actually ain't that small because the chart said every inch of track = one hundred ft. There was easily over 50 inches of track drawn If those are B&M's blueprints, wouldn't the measurements be in metrics since they're in Switzerland? Also, how could someone possibly have access to the real ride blueprints. This has to be fake.
calakapepe Posted August 2, 2013 Posted August 2, 2013 referring to "blueprints" I only counted 6 inversions... I mostly just wanted to test this. 1
Cdeq Posted August 2, 2013 Posted August 2, 2013 Maybe a Plaza like Gatekeeper at Cedar Point I hope. Or even better...Leviathan...with the fountain and everything... Maybe a fountain and once in awhile a scream of the Banshee if this ride doesn't roar!

bmbillups Posted August 2, 2013 Posted August 2, 2013 For those of you who were wondering, the announcement will NOT be streamed live and you must be in Action Zone to see the announcement. And where is your source for this? Isn't it usually independent sites that will stream it? And if not that, people will likely be live blogging it. Also, all the renderings, info, and any videos released will be online within minutes. Lastly, I'm sure people will record the announcement and later post it on YouTube. So, if it's hard for you to get to the park, there's no reason to worry. Kings Island tweeted there were no plans to broadcast it live. What day did they tweet that? I cant find it

upstop Posted August 2, 2013 Posted August 2, 2013 referring to "blueprints" I only counted 6 inversions... I mostly just wanted to test this. at 11:49 in the video it looks like there are two barrel rolls between the helixes, that would make 8 inversions. 1
