homestar92 Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 Yeah, it was closed the night of the Banshee announcement. Looks like there ended up being more stuff to speculate for 2014. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BeastForever Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 Well I certainly HOPE that a name change will not be taking place for the 2014 season. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LordSkippy Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 If I'm not mistaken, Terp's confidence in the area still being Action Zone at the start of the season is based not upon some top-secret information, but rather on this tweet from last week, with emphasis added: New this year in Action Zone is the Chicken Shack. Fresh hand-breaded chicken tenders, wings, wraps and salads are on the menu. (Source: https://twitter.com/KingsIslandPR)One does not need to be a detective to see the area in question is clearly referred to as Action Zone, so you don't need to take Terp's word for it. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WailsLikeABanshee Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 I'm starting to feel like this is a cult, where we all worship Kings Island, and follow the words and ways of The Almighty Interpreter.

BB1 Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 Just because you may not see an Action Zone retheme this year, doesn't mean there isn't hope. It has been under different names in the years past, and different themes too. It could be a future addition, if any, which in all honesty, I do not know. Also, don't forget, the Chicken Shack can be on the other side of the circle, allowing for another area to be separated still. (Shark, I know, I was just bringing it up for reference.)

Adventuro Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 I don't think that tweet tells us anything. Just because the park calls it Action Zone still- doesn't mean much. Because as of right now it is called Action Zone, they wanted to make an announcement about the Chicken Shack, so they told people where it was by what it's currently called. That doesn't mean they can't change the name of the area from now until then. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Interpreter Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 I am not basing my assertion on a tweet. And I won't be expressing any opinion or fact as to the "target" or "circle" prior to early morn of April 17. Terp, known as a strong supporter of the park industry, and as one who interprets and disseminates that which is in the best interests of that industry, both as a whole and of its two largest US seasonal park chains. 14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DBInternational Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 Did anybody else see this? This image was from about 10:30 this morning. Theyve extended tearing up the concrete to the entrance of On-Point. Also i noticed the creases on the asphalt at the bottom of the webcam (not pictured here) were only apparent when i checked in the afternoon. Any chance these could just be the shadows of trees? 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

homestar92 Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 I've got it! On Location will be repurposed to house the queue for the new Flying Scooters, while the under-station of Banshee will take its job of selling merchandise! -homestar92, putting out a sarcasm warning before anyone actually thinks he's serious. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delirium2018 Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 ^That does make since. To make it easier wouldn't they just wrap the queue around the ride? Also if the On Location is getting removed I would imagine it only to be demolished so people can see The Bat and draw visitors over there to The Bat, Banshee, and X-treme Skyflyer(To make money.) Also to draw visitors over there to buy The Bat, and Banshee merchandise. Some of the new visitors will also think The Bat is a new ride also drawing guests to that area. It's all just a big monopoly. Just a thought. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thedevariouseffect Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 My only question is will The Bat sign be next to the queue keeping the ride in that corner. Or something towards the center of the midway drawing people back there as well.. Hmm... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tuskin Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 I've got it!!! They are making a park map out of pavers. Lost? Check out our new "live action" park map over in Action Zone. - tusk realizes "live action" has nothing to do with a park map out of pavers. Nether the less, he felt it was a necessary statement to bring emphasis to the point of this ridiculous sarcasm. Although, he must admit a park map made out of pavers would be pretty superb. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
