Tien Shinhan Posted July 20, 2016 Share Posted July 20, 2016 I figured it out they're making a roller coaster based on Grantchester Meadows I'm just kidding Tien who can never be taken seriously despite being a rather serious character in Dragon Ball 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ethancoaster Posted July 20, 2016 Share Posted July 20, 2016 I wonder why nothing has been trademarked yet. There aren't even any trademarks filed by any "secret" subsidiaries. Don't they want to sell merchandise? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GavPenn Posted July 20, 2016 Share Posted July 20, 2016 Thinking about the "Tin Man" clues and decided to search around. I stumbled upon this connection. http://www.mythfolklore.net/3043mythfolklore/reading/oz/pages/16.htm //It was lucky the Scarecrow and the Woodman were wide awake and heard the wolves coming. "This is my fight," said the Woodman, "so get behind me and I will meet them as they come." He seized his axe, which he had made very sharp, and as the leader of the wolves came on the Tin Woodman swung his arm and chopped the wolf's head from its body, so that it immediately died. As soon as he could raise his axe another wolf came up, and he also fell under the sharp edge of the Tin Woodman's weapon. There were forty wolves, and forty times a wolf was killed, so that at last they all lay dead in a heap before the Woodman. Then he put down his axe and sat beside the Scarecrow, who said, "It was a good fight, friend."\\ Any thoughts? Seems to me that those doing detective work in the beginning of this were on to something. Seems relevant to repost. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't they want to sell merchandise? If they're secret, how would you know about them? I put "secret" in quotes because I was referring to trademarks not filed directly by Cedar Fair or Kings Island, but still filed by Cedar Fair under one of its subsidiaries (e.g. Millennium Operations). A quick search on the trademark database can pull up all of the trademarks filed at the address of Cedar Fair's headquarters. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Logan Goddard Posted July 20, 2016 Share Posted July 20, 2016 Like I said "Big Bad Wolf" would have been awesome and made sense, if it wasn't already a coaster from Busch (even though it is defunct). I am getting a mythical creature vibe from the countdown background and the fact they keep using the work "lurking" to promote it. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A quick search on the trademark database can pull up all of the trademarks filed at the address of Cedar Fair's headquarters. They may have learned a lesson from Thunderbird. Holiday World applied for that trademark under a seemingly unrelated shell company with an address in Evansville. So the subsidiary might not necessarily have the address of Cedar Fair HQ, or any other address one might associate with Cedar Fair. 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

presto123 Posted July 20, 2016 Share Posted July 20, 2016 I'm going to stick to Sasquatch as the name. Washington state has the biggest logging company in America and Washington has the most Bigfoot sightings. Logging and Bigfoot/Sasquatch go together like ham and cheese. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jcgoble3 Posted July 20, 2016 Author Share Posted July 20, 2016 For anyone interested in numbers: At this point in Banshee speculation (right after the announcement of the announcement date), we were averaging around 900 or more posts per day across all of KIC, with a large portion of those in the decoding thread. Over the past 24 hours, we've had just 343 posts across all of KIC. Whatever this is, it's certainly not drawing the level of interest and speculation that Banshee did. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fryoj Posted July 20, 2016 Share Posted July 20, 2016 I think that the much more visible construction helped with Banshee. That, and message boards are slowly dying off in interest. Facebook and twitter were not as big then as they are now. 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
presto123 Posted July 20, 2016 Share Posted July 20, 2016 I think that the much more visible construction helped with Banshee. That and people were probably speculating that it was going to be a huge project replacing SoB. I think a lot of people think this project is going to be more on the medium size scale. If people really thought this was going to be a record breaking giga or something, this site would be blowing up. Personally, I prefer a project in Rivertown over any other part of the park, so I am hyped. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tanna Posted July 20, 2016 Share Posted July 20, 2016 When I think of old pick up trucks in the woods I think of some horror movies. "Deliverance" fits a lot of the clues. Would also work for a flume. Lol For all you kids. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0068473/ I just watched that movie last night! I love that movie! I have a story to do with that movie, My cousin Kramer and I were out one night, and after we went to a festival, we were just beat. We went to all places, a bar at a Holiday Inn. There was a country string band playing, and we got our beers, and sat between the bar and the band. The band, for some reason, starting playing "Dueling Banjos" and Kramer and I were extolling to each other our love of the movie "Deliverance". I conjectured that the most manly man of the film was not Burt Reynolds, but Ned Beatty, because it took a lot of nerve for him to show his bum- But instead of the word 'bum" the truth was we were saying "Great, big, white, fat a**"- and both Kramer and I were talking to each other as such- "He read the script, saw that part, and decided he had it in him to show his 'bum." "Yeh, he knew everyone was going to see his "Bum", but he went ahead and did it." "Yeh! That takes nerves of steel to know the whole nation is going to see your 'bum- And! squeal like a pig! That's the most daring part in the movie." And we thought about getting another beer. I looked over at the bar, and the friendliest, most most pleasant looking fellow lifted his mug and smiled at us. We lifted our glasses and smiled at him. "Kramer. That's Ned Beatty." "(Gasp!) And we're sitting here talking about his 'bum'!" We .... decided not to meet him. He pretty much knew we were fans from over there. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FoolCrzy Posted July 20, 2016 Share Posted July 20, 2016 I wouldn't even mind the name "Beastie" of it wasn't for the fact that it has been used on a KI kiddie coaster. I think it would be neat to tie this coaster in with The Beast. I had thought of that, as well. Wouldn't mind it at all. I doubt that's it, however. Timberwolf is intriguing to me.... Not sure they'd completely abandon the amphitheater/reuse the name... I also wonder if "Roll out the Barrels" was a Donkey Kong reference... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
medford Posted July 20, 2016 Share Posted July 20, 2016 Did the Banshee name get leaked before the announcement? Any chance this name gets leaked? Terp claims (I don't doubt him, but have never seen a link to proof either) that he mentioned the name Banshee roughly a full year prior to its announcement. Being so early, he claims it went almost completely unnoticed, except by Don. As mentioned, the name was trademarked early in the season, so it was out there as a possibility that many had in mind, but those speculating weren't sure if it was really for KI's project or not. CF had trademarked it prior, and was ready to call a ride (Raptor?) by that name before some backlash led them down a different track. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
