Decoding Episode II: Rivertown 2017 and the Falling Trees

[Thrill_Biscuit]

Man, the things people will drink.

[Thrill_Biscuit]

Double post. I'll take advantage of the opportunity to say Awesome Origins today at 1:30. Absolutely perfect!

 

Have a nice day!

Back to semi-on-topic "decoding."

So, as we all know, KI tweeted this pic last week:

When compared to the original sign

there's something missing.

Notably, "FOR" and "G" (also "Caution").

Hmm. So, maybe the new project is going to improve cell reception at the park?

 

Anyone else notice a figure on the bottom right corner of sign in the tree? I don't know if it has been speculated to or noticed.

[Logan Goddard]

I personally don't see a figure in the tree, but I am pretty bad at finding stuff like that in the clues.

 

Edit: I see a gap in the branches but nothing that screams "that's a figure".

[austincoffey2]

I see one clearly at the bottom of the tree. Nice eye

[Shawn Meyer]

I seen it. I also noticed that the C looks like an L.

[FlyMartyFly]

What does the figure look like? I see something but not sure if it right or not.

TreeHawk, or ForestHawk.....DiversionHawk??

Not sure if this is Project 2017 related, but on the Blue Racer turnaround, if you look back in the woods to the right, left of the theater, there's a bunch of things covered with black tarps. Never noticed them before, they could have been there a while, but I feel like I would have noticed them. Anyone know about these things?

Most likely thats where they shoot the fireworks from.

Aren't the fireworks shot by The Beast? This is nowhere near there. If they were here The Beast wouldn't have to close each night

Actually the fireworks are shot behind the Blue Racer's turnaround. See area circled on image below:

Okay that's where it was. Why do they close The Beast and not The Racer if it's so much closer? I actually never knew exactly where the fireworks were set off. I apologize for this, I probably look like an idiot right now.

It is difficult to see from that picture but it is about the same distance from The Beast.  The brake shed is directly south of the clearing.

I hope with this coaster Kings Island one ups Holiday World.

 

I give Beast an edge over Voyage.  

 

Daytime:

Voyage > Beast

 

Nighttime:

Beast >>> Voyage

 

But Raven is a darn good coaster as well.

[CP Maverick]

Raven + Legend + Voyage is a pretty tough collection of wooden coasters to beat. Even with a new wooden coaster, Kings Island will still be outclassed by the group that Holiday World brings.

[Logan Goddard]

The only way I can see them taking that back might be another attempt at SOB, new layout and NOT a rushed hyper woodie.

[The Interpreter]

Woodstock Express > Voyage.

Opinions vary.

[freaks76]

^ Not a fan a Voyage, huh?

[The Interpreter]

Or a HUGE fan of Woodstock Express.

Terp -- who wishes PTC made those trains with those wheels and those restraints in adult size.

[freaks76]

Yea, I thought I should've put that in there, to late.

I still ride it a couple times a season.

[The Interpreter]

Flanged wheels...

[Tien Shinhan]

 

 

I forgot about this. PTC made a train called PTC-360 which can go upside down but I'd doubt anyone would use them since GCI, RMC, and GG all make their own trains now and PTC hasn't built an original roller coaster since Screamin Eagle at Six Flags St. Louis unless you count the Ghoster Coaster at Canada's Wonderland which is just a clone of Woodstock Express.

[The Interpreter]

I just watched that video again yesterday.

Philadelphia Toboggan Company built coasters. Ironically, Philadelphia Toboggan Coasters...hasn't.

[Imperial79]

I see an image of what looks like a face where the stripes are, and next to the tree if that's what your talking about.

[The Interpreter]

And in Over The Rhine a few years ago, a woman famously saw Jesus on her burnt toast...

[King Ding Dong]

I see Twinkie the Kid and Captain Cupcake.

[The Interpreter]

Ho Ho!

You would!

[IBEW_Sparky]

Ohhhh wait.... look at the land the tree is on, that DEFINITELY signifies a double down element

And dont forget that infernal dog on that ridiculous YouTube video that so many SWORE said "I Love you".

We need to ask King Don.

Ho Ho!
