gingerkid Posted June 22, 2013 Share Posted June 22, 2013 The 2014 forum is going great under KI. I don't want to detract from that page, but also want to keep it on topic. So with this 2014 project and other massive projects (I.e Diamondback Firehawk), raises the question. What's the best part of the ride process? 1)Speculation/Unknown construction/Park Teases 2)The reveal of the ride/park construction updates 3)Official Opening of ride/Line Waiting/Admiring the ride Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdawg1998 Posted June 22, 2013 Share Posted June 22, 2013 Reveal of the ride. It gets me so excited and I love the attention Kings Island (or any park) gets. Of course I love riding it but I love the anticipation more. I hate speculation because no one has valid speculations and it's all a confused mess. But once it's officially announced, that's great. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diamondbacker27 Posted June 22, 2013 Share Posted June 22, 2013 ^Agreed! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Interpreter Posted June 22, 2013 Share Posted June 22, 2013 No one has valid speculations? That hasn't been true in the past. Someone will doubtlessly be very accurate. And others will mock that person. Perhaps most. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KIfan73 Posted June 22, 2013 Share Posted June 22, 2013 I'd like to be able to see what goes into planning and designing a ride or attraction. Since I'm not an employee of the amusement or construction business, it'll probably never happen, though. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jr for Birdy Posted June 22, 2013 Share Posted June 22, 2013 Umm... When I hear the words " All Clear", that gets me excited! 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YoungStud Posted June 22, 2013 Share Posted June 22, 2013 Mine is the speculation. More often than not I am let down. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coasterfanatic83 Posted June 23, 2013 Share Posted June 23, 2013 Well, after going through this process with Gatekeeper, I would have to say step 3. Sure everything leading up to the new experience is fun, but finally getting to do it for yourself after seeing everything that goes into it is like payday after a long week of work.

JTW Posted June 23, 2013 Share Posted June 23, 2013 I like the reveal and construction and all the hype that goes into it. Of course the speculation and riding are super fun too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BavarianBeatle Posted June 23, 2013 Share Posted June 23, 2013 The best part is riding a good ride. After Cedar Fair teased WindSeeker and Dinosaurs Alive as thrill rides, I reserve judgment until I have ridden the new ride. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Interpreter Posted June 23, 2013 Share Posted June 23, 2013 Add Shoot the Rapids at Cedar Point and Planet Snoopy at Kings Dominion, though the former was largely the old dinosaur claiming that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tuxedoman52 Posted June 23, 2013 Share Posted June 23, 2013 I like waiting in line for a new ride, even if it's 2 hours. On the rides that have already been there, just going up the lift hill gets me excited. (Except on Beast where the lift hill goes 4MPH) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
