jcgoble3 Posted March 12, 2014 Posted March 12, 2014 So angle that vendor's lines to the side. Or set up ropes so the line snakes back and forth horizontally in front of said vendor. Problem solved. 1 Quote
calakapepe Posted March 12, 2014 Posted March 12, 2014 But then the lines lead into Delirium's exit, the tables for that shack, or under the dive loop which will be a hot spot for people to watch the trains go by. They aren't gonna want that to be congested.And a zig-zag queue simply doesn't seem like a solution that a park would want concerning aesthetics in the middle of a walkway.If you don't have room in the middle, you've essentially cut off a direct path from Banshee to the entrance of Action Zone. 1 Quote
jcgoble3 Posted March 12, 2014 Posted March 12, 2014 So? People can walk around the other side of the Eagles. It's not like it's an extra five miles. For someone heading from the path by Delirium back to Banshee, it would only be a few extra feet. It's not a big problem. 1 Quote
thoe124 Posted March 12, 2014 Posted March 12, 2014 ... For adults 48" tall and over. Do kids get all the playgrounds at parks? See Coney Island's playground.Probably sent from my iDevice without Cydia. 1 Quote
calakapepe Posted March 12, 2014 Posted March 12, 2014 If guests have the option to split a line for food and to walk around a hypothetical ride to get to Banshee, many will push through. It's not a viable place.Even if I end up being wrong, with the Ice Scream Zone there, congestion will happen.It's not a small enough deal that they'd put the attraction that close to a vendor. A more sensible course of action would be to put an attraction a bit more north- west. There's more room there, and doing that would help maximize ease of traffic.EDIT: but even then... it's in the middle of an intersection. 1 Quote
Adventuro Posted March 13, 2014 Posted March 13, 2014 What if it's a new ride that is raised up so people can walk underneath it. 3 Quote
RingMaster Posted March 13, 2014 Posted March 13, 2014 So? People can walk around the other side of the Eagles. It's not like it's an extra five miles. For someone heading from the path by Delirium back to Banshee, it would only be a few extra feet. It's not a big problem. You're underestimating the amount of people that are going to be in Action Zone this upcoming season with the first new ride built in that area since 2003. 5 Quote
calakapepe Posted March 13, 2014 Posted March 13, 2014 Does such a flat ride exist? You need a foundation. Quote
BloodBlade21 Posted March 13, 2014 Posted March 13, 2014 ^ The footings would be as currently placed but the base would be elevated up on the footings leaving room to walk underneath while dodging the footings. This would probably require larger footings then the ones currently placed so I don't think it will happen. Quote
stinky Posted March 13, 2014 Posted March 13, 2014 Per those last two phtos, the three arcs in the (former) AZ circle look like their insides are solid, and banked to the center. Would it be too small to have sets of seating facing inward? I can't get a good perspective to tell. Quote

This would probably require larger footings then the ones currently placed so I don't think it will happen. And the boarding area would be fenced off. i.e. WindSeeker. Quote
Diamondbacker Posted March 13, 2014 Posted March 13, 2014 I don't think that they'd wait until now to put in a flat. Sure, it doesn't cost too long to build but why a month before season starts? 1 Quote
thedevariouseffect Posted March 13, 2014 Posted March 13, 2014 See CP...they did it..took us kind of by surprise 1 Quote
calakapepe Posted March 13, 2014 Posted March 13, 2014 And if it's in a location off camera, who's to say they haven't already had a concrete foundation poured for a flat? Possible that we, merely just weren't informed yet. 1 Quote
thedevariouseffect Posted March 13, 2014 Posted March 13, 2014 Like I just posted elsewhere..this could be in a whole different area of the park..Who knows, Planet Snoopy..I honestly didn't even think of it, but Soak City, never know..All I'm saying is the possibilities are always endless..Do I expect to be something Banshee esque, honestly no. Could they make something out of nothing, possibly. Who knows, all I know is we will all know at 1600 tomorrow 2 Quote
Diamondback FOF Posted March 13, 2014 Posted March 13, 2014 I bet Don is enjoying everyone speculating 4 Quote
thedevariouseffect Posted March 13, 2014 Posted March 13, 2014 Oh of course..it's his job to an extent..Ah well..I speculate but honestly not that concerned..I'll be excited when it's time to be excited..if it's something that excites me.. I honestly don't expect it to be anything particularly great for me, but you'll never know. We shall see.. Quote
calakapepe Posted March 13, 2014 Posted March 13, 2014 Or enjoying some sleep. If that's even possible to enjoy sleep whilst sleeping...I digest.. I'm getting too complex again; and intentionally punny. Quote
thedevariouseffect Posted March 13, 2014 Posted March 13, 2014 Lol I do enjoy sleep, off to it actually here in a few..shower and shave time for tomorrow..Ugh two more days of work, so excited. Leave+DST change..UGH that sucks But yes shower.. As Christine sang in Phantom..Think of me..Think of me Fondly... Heheheh had to 2 Quote
Diamondback FOF Posted March 13, 2014 Posted March 13, 2014 ^^Sleep? What's that...? I'm starting to forget what a good night's sleep is... 2 Quote
thedevariouseffect Posted March 13, 2014 Posted March 13, 2014 This isn't going to be a good nights sleep..it's almost 2300 and I'm wide awake and full of energy and no clue why.. Plus goes to show I'm still on here..ugh.. Quote

homestar92 Posted March 13, 2014 Posted March 13, 2014 Ermahgerd. I just had an idea that would make me just giddy. A new Bayern Kurve somewhere on International Street (Or off to the side, but still technically in that section a la Grand Carousel or Boo Blasters). It could fit the theme. Each car could represent a different country and it could be like a race, except nobody ever pulls ahead. Obviously, the first car would be the USA, because 'Murica has to win. -homestar92, a Bayern Kurve enthusiast ever since his trip to Kennywood. 4 Quote
malem Posted March 13, 2014 Posted March 13, 2014 it's almost 2300 and I'm wide awake and full of energy and no clue why.. Could the KI announcement and "circle" activity have anything to do with it? Maybe it's a small campground with rentable mini-cabins. For only $xx.99, enjoy a power nap in the middle of Action Zone! 8 Quote

KI-ORIG-EMP Posted March 13, 2014 Posted March 13, 2014 Maybe they are bringing back the Tumble Bug for us to enjoy again? 4 Quote
mikejenkins1 Posted March 13, 2014 Posted March 13, 2014 I so wish they would build a 'Lost Coney or Lost Kings Island' area like Kennywood. You could fill it with old flats from the past. Tumblebug, Eagles, Whip, ....) 10 Quote
TombRaiderFTW Posted March 13, 2014 Posted March 13, 2014 Okay... so now there's some random circle off to the left inside the original circle. The only thing I can conclude is that we're getting a Death Star mosaic. 4 Quote
Hendrick Posted March 13, 2014 Posted March 13, 2014 I so wish they would build a 'Lost Coney or Lost Kings Island' area like Kennywood. You could fill it with old flats from the past. Tumblebug, Eagles, Whip, ....) Those are probably my three favorite flat rides. I was pleasently surprised with how much I enjoyed Conneaut's Tumble Bug. 4 Quote
Cdeq Posted March 13, 2014 Posted March 13, 2014 Its going to be like Gatekeeper, there going to be HUGE sign infront and 1 Quote
