SPEEdDemon Posted March 13, 2014 Posted March 13, 2014 The approximate radius of the current circle is too small to hold a standard (insert standard name for what the Flying Eagles were) according to satellite maps via Bing or Google. And don't let the word "approximate" deter you to thinking I'm inferring with a bias.

And, it would fit in the "Action Zone" theme. Quote
ChainDog Posted March 13, 2014 Posted March 13, 2014 Based on the footer patterns for flying eagles at CP, the AZ circle doesn't have the same one. Quote
CharleyTheDinosaur Posted March 13, 2014 Posted March 13, 2014 One possibility I haven't seen mentioned is a new arcade or arcade games. I remember reading rumors that Cedar Point's fantastic selection of classic arcade games may be going bye bye. Then again, that was when everyone thought they were getting a new dark ride this year. The arcades at King's Island appear to have less and less traffic every year so maybe they've decided to mix things up a bit by bringing in some classic games. If in the unlikely event this is the 4:00 announcement, I will have to start saving my quarters. 2 Quote

And, it would fit in the "Action Zone" theme. I suppose.. I haven't looked at maps for how big existing ones are though. But I'll be quite disappointed if this new attraction is a pay-per-ride thing.... I still have yet to do Xtreme Skyflier after all these years. Sling Shot was not worth even the $5 charge that I got it for.. Just, comparatively you get more thrilling and longer duration rides elsewhere. 2 Quote

dakota2112 Posted March 13, 2014 Posted March 13, 2014 There have been certain "diversion" comments that are open-for-interpretation since Banshee first showed up... wondering if that has anything to do with this... ? Quote

XGatorHead 8904 Posted March 13, 2014 Posted March 13, 2014 My bet is a new live show that will culminate in a daily human sacrifice. The lucky victims will be selected from internet forums/message boards; specifically those individuals who consistently fail to capitalize proper nouns or who cannot distinguish between the proper usage of the words "your" or "you're". We can call it Capital Carnage! We'll probably get some used ride from another CF park - like Chaos from CP. The wife and I would cry tears of joy for that to happen. That was one of our favorite rides. That's still one of my favorite flats, but with the issues that multiple parks are rumored to have had with those, I think it's pretty safe to say we won't be seeing Chaos at KI, sadly. 4 Quote

homestar92 Posted March 13, 2014 Posted March 13, 2014 Something I just noticed: You can get the rider height requirements guide here: https://www.visitkingsisland.com/plan-a-visit/rider-height-requirements It includes Banshee and The Bat, so we know it is, in fact updated for 2014. But there are no surprises. So either the park has done very well at covering ALL of the bases, or the new attraction is not a ride. 1 Quote

thedevariouseffect Posted March 13, 2014 Posted March 13, 2014 Until you see a published rider safety guide thats the official document.. But I still think it's not a ride in terms of attraction..I think it's something else like a show or venue. We will see. Just a few more hours folks 2 Quote
LoraX Posted March 13, 2014 Posted March 13, 2014 Circle circle dot dot - I think it's a huge cootie shot. I am wondering if they are doing something to the Fountain area or the entrance area after you get into the park. With the camera being moved from the front area it really makes me wonder if it is a diversion. Can the other camera (news station I think) pick up what is going on there? I could be way off if course, but all the added attention to the area formerly known as the target makes me wonder about the main entrance/Fountain area. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 3 Quote
WailsLikeABanshee Posted March 13, 2014 Posted March 13, 2014 Oh my gosh. I never even thought of that, LoraX! Hmm. I wonder what they're doing up there, if you're right. Sent from my VS840 4G using Tapatalk 3 Quote

Cdeq Posted March 13, 2014 Posted March 13, 2014 The circle everyone talking about Is the entrance to Banshee Like Gatekeeper, there going to be a plaza, the plaza going to have a sign with that sign is the watee fountain (i think) 2 Quote
