February 12, 201412 yr Hello haven't posted a topic in a while now, well I got one in mind that I was thinking about. During 2014 season what is your number 1 goal you want to accomplish during the season? It could be you want to break your record on numbers of rides on Beast, Vortex, Bat, ext. It could be you want to break your record on how many hotdogs you can eat in day without getting sick. Theres many other things you can accomplish. Share your Goal's here.
February 12, 201412 yr Try different foods that are inside the park. I think the only places I've eaten are Panda Express and Larosa's (sorry if that's spelled incorrectly).
February 12, 201412 yr I would like to try and take more pictures. I always tell myself to take at least a few pictures per trip. Plus it will help next off season go by faster, hopefully! Not too much longer though!
February 12, 201412 yr My two goals are to go to Kings Island 21 or more times. 20 is my record. I also intend on taking a lot more pics, too. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
February 12, 201412 yr In 2012, I rode The Beast 4 times in one day. I also rode Racer 14 times in a row in 2012. My goal this year is to do 10 with The Beast and 12 with Diamondback in one day. I don't think I can set a record for Racer this year. Anything's possible! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
February 12, 201412 yr ^Me and my friend rode DB 18 times in a row once. I want to take a lot of perspective photos for my artwork that i do at home, and ride the bus to Kings Island so my mom doesnt have to drive me.
February 12, 201412 yr Oh, how much I want to set up an experience system...- Go to Kings Island at least once. [10 Exp] - Ride one ride at Kings Island. [10 Exp] - Ride that same ride again [10 Exp] And so on, until I level up.
February 12, 201412 yr I have two big ones. 1) Ride Banshee 2) Ride The Beast at night. I still don't know why I didn't do this last time.
February 12, 201412 yr 1) Combine for 150 laps on Beast, Banshee, and Diamondback 2) Ride The Bat, BLSC, and Firehawk more often 3) Take a lifetime's worth of photos, both at Kings Island as well as at other parks 4) Try more of the food inside the park 5) Have FUN!
February 12, 201412 yr Make it to the park at least twice this season. It's a lot harder now that we live 15 hours away.
February 12, 201412 yr Oh, how much I want to set up an experience system... - Go to Kings Island at least once. [10 Exp] - Ride one ride at Kings Island. [10 Exp] - Ride that same ride again [10 Exp] And so on, until I level up. Ermahgerd, we need this. Are you familiar with Xbox Live Achievements and Playstation Network Trophies? Let's meta-game Kings Island this year. I will get started immediately.
February 12, 201412 yr Take plenty of cool photos, including some on-ride photos at The Beach if and only if they allow it (the website is silent, so I'll need to ask management when I get to the park in May). Oh, how much I want to set up an experience system... - Go to Kings Island at least once. [10 Exp] - Ride one ride at Kings Island.

February 12, 201412 yr Make it to the park at least twice this season. It's a lot harder now that we live 15 hours away. I wish you well on your journey! Even thought it might be forbidden.

Ride The Vortex, pick up a +2 Gauntlet of Giant's Strength; Ride Firehawk, pick up a Scroll of Levitation... man, you could write a whole RPG based on KI!
February 12, 201412 yr I only have two KI-related goals this year: ride Banshee on opening day win 3 Point Challenge on opening weekend
February 12, 201412 yr I would also like to win the 3 point challenge. I play basketball and I've been working on my 3 point shot so hopefully this is the year I can win it! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
February 12, 201412 yr I'd like to after work, go to Kings Island and ride at least one great ride before going home. At least three times a week since I'll be close to the park, won't be too far to travel!
February 12, 201412 yr My goals are not for just this season but things I have always wanted to do. - Attend a media day. - Take part in a charity event involving a park or coasters.
February 12, 201412 yr I can't wait to see Banshee from Adventure Express, and certainly from Delirium. Of course, everyone seems to want to see Banshee from Banshee (including me).
February 12, 201412 yr -I want to attend as many times as I possibly can ( a couple of times a month at least ) -Get more pictures/videos -Ride Banshee at least a handful of times each visit -Get some new coaster gear ( especially Banshee and Bat gear ) -Attend some KIC events and hang out with my new friends I finally got to meet in Indy ( and hopefully meet more of you! ) -Go to at least 2 Haunts this season -Go to Pride night this year as last year was a blast! -Try to do a charity event and last but not least, enjoy the park overall for yet another incredible season that awaits!
February 12, 201412 yr My goals for lifetime ride totals: -Reach 300 total rides on Vortex -Reach 100 total rides on Diamondback -Reach 75 total rides on WindSeeker and 80 on The Bat I also would like to ride Banshee at least 10-15 or maybe even 20 or more times this year. Meanwhile, I just realized that I didn't ride Vortex more than 10 times in one day last year compared to 2012 when I did as many as 18 times in one day; this year I'll try to ride Vortex 11 times or more in at least one trip, just like in 2012. I'll also try to ride Diamondback more, since I reached an all-time low of only 11 rides last year. *people gasp and say to me "Are you CRAZY?!?"*
February 12, 201412 yr I would also like to win the 3 point challenge. I play basketball and I've been working on my 3 point shot so hopefully this is the year I can win it! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk That 3 pointer is way further than what it is in real life. The basket is much higher and the rim is just barely big enough for the non-regulation ball to fit.
February 12, 201412 yr ^ I agree. I know for sure that the one at KI is not the same as a regulation one. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
February 13, 201412 yr On the three point shot when I worked it I could make three of five shots almost every time. I don't think I could do that now though. The rim used to be double rimmed and normal shape. Now it's single rim and a little bit oval. Still marketable, but it's a different beast.
February 13, 201412 yr I would also like to win the 3 point challenge. I play basketball and I've been working on my 3 point shot so hopefully this is the year I can win it! That 3 pointer is way further than what it is in real life. The basket is much higher and the rim is just barely big enough for the non-regulation ball to fit. The 3 Point Challenge rim at KI is legit, and the shot distance is legit. There are some 3 Point Challenges around the country that have varying rim heights and distances that are shorter/longer than normal, but I've never seen a completely non-circular rim at any 3 Point Challenge game anywhere. To IAmABanshee, I wish you the best in your quest for 3 Point perfection! I believe only five different individuals have won 3 Point Challenge at Kings Island and Cedar Point combined so you'll be in good company!
