thoe124 Posted April 5, 2014 Posted April 5, 2014 You should always link photos to where they came from. 2
ki95 Posted April 5, 2014 Posted April 5, 2014 Picture link: found above^ Does anyone know what's under the claw? It also appears that there are either lights and/or speakers at the base of the sign. Either way the queue looks AWESOME! Sent from my iPod touch using Tapatalk 1
shark6495 Posted April 5, 2014 Posted April 5, 2014 looks like a towel or a drop cloth. Odds are it was put there to aide in putting the claw on the sign. Concrete plus big heavy sign pieces do not always mix. Just something to help keep the claw from getting scratched up. 3
Kat Posted April 5, 2014 Posted April 5, 2014 ^ probably illumination lights to shine on the sign at night so it can be seen as far as what's under her claw, I was wondering that myself. 1
Coasterama Posted April 5, 2014 Posted April 5, 2014 I wonder if they have The Bat's ID sign up yet. 4
MysticsTimber Posted April 5, 2014 Posted April 5, 2014 I saw the sign when I was at the park today for training. It looked awesome! On another note, I'm still calling our Banshee Debbie. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 3
malem Posted April 5, 2014 Posted April 5, 2014 ^ He may not be allowed to share that information yet. 9
BB1 Posted April 5, 2014 Posted April 5, 2014 Or maybe he doesn't want to spoil the suprise (where he is working at of course) like I have for a time.
Fire-Beast-OF FEAR Posted April 5, 2014 Posted April 5, 2014 It's usually at the discretion of the employee to tell but usually before the season starts, especially on a season when a major new ride is coming in, it's best to keep quiet until the season starts. Last season I got a friendly reminder from a fellow employee and a KICer after I said something really dumb about the construction fence I saw on training day to not discuss park matters before the park opened. Just be smart about what you say on here and you should be golden. On the same note. For those KI employees going to test ride Banshee over the next 2 weekends. Just don't discuss it on here or on other social media before the ride opens to the public. Some want the surprise come the 17/18th and the park wants the same too. 12
The Interpreter Posted April 5, 2014 Posted April 5, 2014 Indeed. Be Banshee wonderful or blah in your opinion, posting that here before Media Day may end any association with Cedar Fair. Posting the latter could end it any day of the season. 14
Airtimeluvr Posted April 5, 2014 Posted April 5, 2014 That new sign is amazing, and this whole structure of coaster, sign, station and theming is a work of art. Many, many props to everyone who had anything to do with this ride coming together. I have only been to 3 Cedar Fair Parks but I think this has to be the best looking ride in any of their parks. I hope that this kind of detail is brought to every project that is put together in the future of Cedar Fair. 12

MysticsTimber Posted April 6, 2014 Posted April 6, 2014 ^What rides will you be working?I'm not working the rides. I'm in the Food & Beverage department.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 8

The Interpreter Posted April 6, 2014 Posted April 6, 2014 That's good. Most food surprises aren't good ones. Terp, who still hasn't quite recovered from his school's Turkey Fat Soup Surprise. 14
AZ Kinda Guy Posted April 6, 2014 Posted April 6, 2014 I know they do, again I just think it's stupid and pointless... Only ride I know a ride op "drives" is Monster, that I could understand, but the rest, you push dispatch or a brake release, maybe a few extra buttons, end of story. Last I checked driving something isn't just a push of the button Kings Island calls it the "driver/drive box," and CP calls it "controls." Get over it. 13
upstop Posted April 6, 2014 Posted April 6, 2014 Action Zone circle is glowing like a fireball with lighting right now. Wow...it's bright. 1
MDMC01 Posted April 6, 2014 Posted April 6, 2014 Banshee's sign looks amazing! I love the giant claw and the name Eve! 13 more days until Banshee is unleashed to the public! 7
Kat Posted April 6, 2014 Posted April 6, 2014 Totally off topic but I feel the need to say this. Keep Brad (IndyGuy4KI) in your thoughts and prayers. He is in the ER after having another seizure... 2nd one in 6 weeks. Those who don't know him personally should bc he is really nice and cool... The Earth is the proper name of a planet, and thus should always be capitalized. 25
upstop Posted April 6, 2014 Posted April 6, 2014 I wonder if that is fog that I see in areas around the Banshee queue on the KI webcam view? 1
calakapepe Posted April 6, 2014 Posted April 6, 2014 <script async src="//platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script> Tons of improvements all over the park, and it's great. I just wanted to point out that it looks as thought the Invertigo sign will be yellow and red for another season. Is anybody else really bothered that they didn't include the loop (the one that is part of Eve's tail) in the sign? Not that the sign doesn't look great. It looks fantastic. I love how multi-layered it is. Just, the addition of that loop would have made it at least ten times even better, IMO. Nope. I prefer the logo without that loop on the tail. The loop looks a little tacky to me. Like, we get that it's a coaster, no need to incorporate it into the logo. My opinion, of course. 5
Kat Posted April 6, 2014 Posted April 6, 2014 ^^it does look like fog and that's a lot of lighting!!! The Earth is the proper name of a planet, and thus should always be capitalized.
CoasterGeek101 Posted April 6, 2014 Posted April 6, 2014 If I would live stream the media presentation, would anybody watch it? 6
CoasterOhio Posted April 6, 2014 Posted April 6, 2014 ^ I would have too, since I'll be in Chicago. xP

Stitch Posted April 6, 2014 Posted April 6, 2014 I am really liking the detail and extra work they are putting in for Banshee. 3
ki95 Posted April 6, 2014 Posted April 6, 2014 If I would live stream the media presentation, would anybody watch it?I think maybe you would need to get Dons Permission though.I guess you would be able to do so since tuns of media outlets such as news stations & newspapers will be presentSent from my iPod touch using Tapatalk
