Starting to Decode 2014

[The Interpreter]

And what did you just do?

[UnrealNightmare]

It was a blanket statement not directed at any one person.

I just think we should all be a little more polite to each other. Maybe eat some Snickers. We're not ourselves when were hungry. Hungry for information that is.

[The Interpreter]

The quoting of posts with lots of pictures re-included fits that same category. The mods have enough to do already.

Moving on...

And you edited and added a bunch of stuff after I replied. Snicker.

[UnrealNightmare]

Lol it wasn't even about the whole picture posts. It was more about being friendlier to each other. Anyways....

I think if this new project has a spooky theme to it we might be looking at an announcement around opening night of Haunt this year. Wouldn't that make the first night of Haunt that much better? Isn't that right around the time they started doing the "if you buy a season pass for next year you get one free day this year" deal?

Well I have found out the last few months that a free photobucket account only allows for 10 gigabyte of uploads a month. Once you pass that they shut off your pics until the next month rolls around. It normally takes about 15 days anymore for me to hit my limit. So every time you relink those pics it works against that limit. I have thought about deleting a lot of the pics I have in this thread so I would be able to add more but a lot of them are important to the following discussion. I currently have 63 pics in this thread that get viewed enough on here to reach that limit.. Just another reason why quoting with pics is a bad idea.

www.imgur.com is my preferred use of picture sharing. It's free and requires no account.

..which STILL took forever to load on mobile and adds to data used for those who must pay to byte. Why even those three?

But he had a point of sharing the photos. It wasn't like a couple pages back and the would quote 10 photos and say Drop Tower looks tall. He wanted to show that there wont be much work done because of all of the water on the ground. I understand you may be on mobile but maybe if you are short on data you should wait until you get home to check it.

I mean no disrespect to you.

Do they have a mobile app?

Maybe B&M will finally get what they wanted with the name Banshee. I heard that when they built 'Banshee', Dick Kinzel wanted to cut cost so a lot of features were excluded from the ride (ie brake run at the end would be enclosed with special effects inside). This ****ed off B&M so they 'took a break' from Cedar Fair. Didn't see a B&M till Talon in 2001.

I wouldn't be surprised if Cedar Fair and Intamin took a break. This is just what I heard and looked for backup on the Internet but couldn't find anything.

I'm still trying to tell whether or not they will use those old King Cobra footers.

Would be nice if they supported some type of theme enhancement (lights, water mist), but beyond that I doubt it. Considering how close the new projects footers are to them though it wouldn't surprise me. Seems like it would be a lot easier to remove them to make room for setting the track up if they didn't plan to use them.

[PKIVortex]

Even if they did include theme, how long would it take for the theme to not work anymore?

[NightlyBeast]

Theme enhancements require maintenance to ensure functionality, this much is certain.

A company would not take a break from a customer. Money is money.

[upstop]

^^ That's for sure....check out AE's special effects. The last time I rode it at night, the last tunnel head red lights and the final lift was nearly dark.....everything else....well, dark.

BTW, since water mist was rusting the track, why not use fog juice?

[PKIVortex]

Yep, its takes a pretty big budget to keep themes working, and most seasonal parks don't have that type of budget.

[BeastForever]

The world may never know...

or it probably will.

[upstop]

I agree....but on AE it's mostly light bulbs...

[The Interpreter]

It was not always thus.

@KingsIslandPR: Rain drops keep fallin' on my head, but that doesn't mean my eyes will soon be turnin' red.

Red eyes of a Banshee?

Or eyes turning red from the chlorine in Soak City, which is closed due to rain?

[Cdeq]

*not for sure if someone posted this* but if it a invert it should be The Bat ReBorn

[Cdeq]

You guys rember the about the screams... Both me and friends other people heard last night coming from the either side of the fence by the bathroom. It sound like a guy scream

I search who eyes turn red in the rain..

Why would B&M be mad at Cedar Fair for not putting special effects??? Maybe if the layout was changed to save money, yes, I would see why, but special effects....really?!?!

[LongliveKingsCobra]

Uhm... Actually that's just a song by B.J Thomas... cause you know it's been raining a lot....

Illinois -- The Enfield Horror

On the evening of April 25, 1973, a young boy was playing in his yard in Enfield, Illinois, when a creature attacked him. The monster was described as having three legs, a thick body, arms that came out of its chest, and two red eyes. The creature tore at the boy's feet before the youngster could get away. Soon after, a neighbor saw the same creature and shot at it with a rifle, only to see it bound away at incredible speed. Other townspeople, including a TV newsman, had subsequent encounters with The Beast. A similar creature reportedly attacked people in a nearby town during the 1940s.

(Found on trutv.com in an article about unexplained phenomenon's)

Very true. I remember fog/mist at the first drop with a train crossing signal, ambient jungle sounds. Doesn't seem like a lo of stuff to maintain, but I don't know their budget.

[PKIVortex]

The could bring back the eyes from the Son of Beast logo and use it in the new logo for the new ride? And the eyes could be RED?

[Zayzayd13]

This is way off the "Decoding 2014" Topic, but do you think after this expansion, the next ride will be in Rivertown. They could tear down the Crypt building and move Madam Fatales to the Kings Island theater.It just sprung in my head that each section got somethig new in the previous years. I dont have a clue just looking into the future.

[The Interpreter]

Where is Diamondback? Or the Reds Hall of Fame Grill?

Terp, who likes to ask questions.

“@KingsIslandPR: Turning out to be a great day to get in a lot of rides.”

This confirms that the 2014 ride will be three coasters and will be a B&M Invert, an Intamin Giga, and a RCCA wooden stratacoaster. They will also duel.
