Magenta Lizard Posted August 1, 2016 Share Posted August 1, 2016 Oh so sorry we haven't been able to solve the whole thing to your satisfaction in four days. *rolls eyes* Teasers will help, but we always are going to begin with wild speculation until the park gives us a little guidance. 14 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
benny1388 Posted August 1, 2016 Share Posted August 1, 2016 I am thinking both MT and the yet-to-be-announced attraction are both part of #KIProject2017 and we've already gotten teasers for it. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supernova Posted August 1, 2016 Share Posted August 1, 2016 ^Barrel-themed spinning teacups? That's the closest i can think of to a ride involving "rolling barrels", since that was the only clue that didn't line up with Mystic Timbers, if what you're saying is right. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Forsaken Posted August 1, 2016 Share Posted August 1, 2016 Another "capital expenditure" on the way...hmmm...has anybody looked around the park yet other than Rivertown? Even something as small -relatively- as MT started to drop construction clues months ago. A "capital expenditure" is the acquiring or maintaining of fixed assets...which could be justified as anything within the park. Maybe Rivertown will get a complete off season rehab complete with a GCI/Beast retracking. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's the closest i can think of to a ride involving "rolling barrels", since that was the only clue that didn't line up with Mystic Timbers, if what you're saying is right. I was mainly thinking about "roll out the barrels" one, but how does the "Yo Adrian" fit MT? Many thought that mean either Philadelphia Toboggan Coaster or RMC, neither are correct. Other than the image being taken in the woods, I don't see a connection (perhaps I'm reading too much into the text, I'll admit). I'm honestly not recalling the others, except for the two with the trains... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
presto123 Posted August 1, 2016 Share Posted August 1, 2016 I'm not seeing how "field of dreams" tied into Mystic Timbers other than if you build it they will come. That feels more like a slogan for a record breaking coaster IMO. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TombRaiderFTW Posted August 1, 2016 Share Posted August 1, 2016 "Field of dreams" was also used on KI's social media to tease Banshee's location. I think it's just one of the things that Don/the PR department uses to get people's attention. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KI Fan75 Posted August 1, 2016 Share Posted August 1, 2016 Is it at all possible that the "Yo Adrian" comment could be teasing something having to do with the "Rocky" entrance of "The Crypt" building? 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KI Guy Posted August 1, 2016 Share Posted August 1, 2016 It should be about time we started seeing some of those European flats that Cedar Fair was looking around for. It would be a nice touch for the anniversary. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FoolCrzy Posted August 1, 2016 Share Posted August 1, 2016 Roll out the Barrels... It's a Donkey Kong themed attraction in the big tan box. An animatronic Ape hurls barrels down a ramp and you have to avoid them. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GavPenn Posted August 2, 2016 Share Posted August 2, 2016 Anyone else pick up on the fact that Kings Island currently has 14 coasters making MT the 15th coaster. Don stated that MT would be our 16th coaster. Unless they are counting both racers, we could see another coaster Announcement for 2017. If MT only costs 4-10 million we could see another coaster with their 15 million cap. I'm not exactly sure what their cap is but figuring this with recent years. I also find it odd that they didn't release the cost of MT and think it might be kept a secret until the second attraction is announced. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Logan Goddard Posted August 2, 2016 Share Posted August 2, 2016 Surf dog is counted as a coaster. Cedar Point also counts Pipescream, so it helps boost the parks numbers. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jdf21972 Posted August 2, 2016 Share Posted August 2, 2016 Everyone sees to have forgotten Don first cryptic message about Race for your Life Charlie Brown. Looks like they will be getting an updated log flume ride with animatronic Peanut characters along the route. That would be cool.

GavPenn Posted August 2, 2016 Share Posted August 2, 2016 This is where I got my numbers. They classify surfdog as a "rocking tug" ride. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Kings_Island_attractions 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Martinin3333 Posted August 2, 2016 Share Posted August 2, 2016 What is ice cream with a "Sprill" ? Google doesn't turn up much that makes sense.If I find anything I will post it, but it's most likely an archaic word that was used for "twist" or maybe it was the name of a defunct company that made cups or cones. Could be a slang word that never caught on too. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk It is a fancy name for sprinkles 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kenban Posted August 2, 2016 Share Posted August 2, 2016 Kings Island does not count Surf Dog as a coaster. Instead they count The Racer as two seperate coasters. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Logan Goddard Posted August 2, 2016 Share Posted August 2, 2016 Don has said that Racer is one coaster in this tweet. https://twitter.com/DonHelbig/status/759190940422668288 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

freaks76 Posted August 2, 2016 Share Posted August 2, 2016 I'd think they would say AE is the forth. I may be wrong, but they don't count hybrids in that way, I'm guessing. Probably go by the support structure??? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beast Gal Posted August 2, 2016 Share Posted August 2, 2016 Tubular rails on wood does not make a wooden coaster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pkiknex25 Posted August 2, 2016 Share Posted August 2, 2016 Also they said MT made 5 wooden coasters.... Beast Woodstock Express Racer..... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Adam House (the GCI designer) said that MT was the 5th wooden, not Don or Greg. So I think we should mark that statement as an unofficial count and leave it at that. Officially, KI counts Racer as one and does count SurfDog as one. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Ding Dong Posted August 2, 2016 Share Posted August 2, 2016 Tubular rails on wood does not make a wooden coaster.Agreed but to most of the GP it does. 1st time I was at CP I thought Gemini was until I got closer to it, a mine train is more obvious. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teenageninja Posted August 2, 2016 Share Posted August 2, 2016 There is a 0% chance they are adding two coasters in one year. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
