Guest KingsIslandPR Posted November 18, 2013 Share Posted November 18, 2013 Look what I found today on Kings Island's website! All the Action Zone rides were like this for about 10 minutes! Nothing to this whatsoever. We did not change our website, as claimed. 30 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Interpreter Posted November 18, 2013 Share Posted November 18, 2013 Put another, less kind way, our new poster lied. Just as he/she/it almost certainly lied when claiming the Scareactors touched him/her/it. Loss of credibility sucks. 20 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sonicteam1000 Posted November 18, 2013 Share Posted November 18, 2013 Speaking of Slingshot, did anyone else notice that it wasn't in any of the Banshee videos? I noticed one day that the price to ride it was on sale (maybe for it's last riders) But this was in July/August (I don't remember) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BeastForever Posted November 18, 2013 Share Posted November 18, 2013 No rides will be removed for the 2014 season. Slingshot, along with several other attractions, will not be removed at any time in the forseeable future: http://www.KICentral.com/forums/index.php?/topic/28216-chopping-block/?hl=%2Bchopping+%2Bblock (Post #4) 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kat Posted November 18, 2013 Author Share Posted November 18, 2013 Imagine yourself being 6' 2" and then tell me Haunt is scary. I personally think the scareactors don't take their job seriously enough... (They stopped trying to scare me once I was 5' 10" and in the 8th grade .) Moral of the story: they only go after short people! And most females lol. The last Saturday of the Haunt we were walking through Rivertown and my fiancé overheard a conversation between a scare actor and a kid outside of Reds Grill. Kid told him to scare someone, the next people to walk by. That happened to be us, apparently. My fiancé said the kid pointed to him and told the scare actor "scare him!!" ... The scare actor said "too big to scare" LOL. My fiancé is 6'1 and about 385. It was hilarious to hear the conversation, though! They target me big time. I'm 5'3 and 100ish pounds lol thankfully I'm usually quiet when I am scared so if one scares me they may get a slight jump out of me but no screams. Idiot drivers scaring me is a different story. lol 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elyk Posted November 18, 2013 Share Posted November 18, 2013 Haha! That is too funny. I went to the Haunt with a group of girls once who got really scared easily. I politely asked a slider to scare them and he slid right in front of them. They were screaming and one yelled "OMmgGG help mee!!!" that was the highlight of my night. Later in the night i told them that I asked the alider to scare them and they got mad though ;( Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk - now Free 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kat Posted November 18, 2013 Author Share Posted November 18, 2013 Not calling you a liar or anything, but did anybody else catch this? It could be very easily photoshopped to say Fear Zone, so I would prefer to have another witness before I believe anything. Still waiting on that Green Intamin track.... You sure called that one right. That's why I never believe these things until proven true, but instead just speculate and that's remarkable for me considering I'm gullible! 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kat Posted November 18, 2013 Author Share Posted November 18, 2013 The same night (10/26) we also saw a dad tell the undertaker to go scare his daughter and her friends the undertaker didn't really do anything and they ran off screaming. He walked up to them, stared at them, they froze up but observed him, then he slightly lurched forward at them with an evil smirk, and they screamed very loud and ran off. It was great. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
homestar92 Posted November 18, 2013 Share Posted November 18, 2013 Not hard to manipulate web pages. It took me a grand total of 45 seconds to make this happen. No Photoshop whatsoever. *Note that this is a manipulated screenshot, and the image represented within does not represent Kings Island or any attraction therein. But it may reflect the poster's opinions of an attraction within Kings Island. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

homestar92 Posted November 18, 2013 Share Posted November 18, 2013 (edited) Well, there but by a can of spraypaint go Paramount. I think one of the only obviously Paramount things left is our Stunt Coaster in Coney Mall that scene-for-scene recreates the final chase in the 2003 version of The Italian Job. EDIT: I'm fairly certain that it's just a glare, unless they were out painting over it in the wee hours of the morning before sunrise.

EDIT: I'm fairly certain that it's just a glare, unless they were out painting over it in the wee hours of the morning before sunrise. I believe you are correct, looking at the webcam it appears to be some sort smudge or water drop, refracting the light no displaying what is actually happening. When I first looked at that, I had sinking feeling in my stomach, because I thought if they were to take the time to clean off that paint, or even repainted it or what ever, I think if that were to be the case, that would rule out my lovely brick pavers...

Executioner822 Posted November 20, 2013 Share Posted November 20, 2013 fear zone doesnt sound too bad, IF it were true. cant stop thinking about the name spectre for Invertigo. fits so well with the new paint and its like Banshee's distant relative, itd be perfect and this is an idea the ride is still called Invertigo for those that read out of context. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlondyRidesOn Posted November 20, 2013 Share Posted November 20, 2013 The idea of retheming Action Zone to a haunted area is interesting, but a few of the rides are out of place. Congo Falls, for example, is more of an Adventure themed water ride and, unless the water were dyed red like blood, it would be out of place in that area. I personally would prefer the old Adventure Village theming in that area again over a scary horror re-theme. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AgentSoB Posted November 20, 2013 Share Posted November 20, 2013 Sorry to go back to the scaractor stuff from a few posts above. however, Funny thing about that is the scaractor Kat mentioned happened to be me lol. I was a Rivertown roamer and by the grille quite a bit. I usually use tactics like that to get kids to leave me alone. I hate having conversations as it distracts me from my goal. So I just ignore and don't fulfill their requests. If it continues I get an officer. Also, I scared/startles many males taller than myself. I stand at 5' 11". You just have to be sneaky about and the guys have to be good sports about it. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
