Rivertown Rider Posted September 30, 2017 Share Posted September 30, 2017 I would agree that this would not be a good fit for KI. I think the park has done a good job in recent years of adding more high capacity rides and I would like to see that continue. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
purdude86 Posted September 30, 2017 Share Posted September 30, 2017 I don't think capactiy is too bad for a flat ride with this. Looks like it coudl hold about 32 people. Surf Dog, Woodstock Gliders, Scrambler, Monster, etc. all don't have that many seats. So woudl jsut depend on how long the ride cycle was but could make it similar to Surf Dog. Plus it looks liek it woudl be an impressive looking ride with a small foot print. That said there are many other flat rides I'd rather see instead of this though as well. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think this (Flat ride/coaster) needs to be at KI, Like you stated maybe a smaller park like MA or Dorney Park would be a better place for this ride to go. They also need this ride more, According to Wikipedia the last time any of these parks got a new coaster was 2008 for MA and 2012 for Dorney (which was actually a relocation of an Invertigo model at CGA). Anyways, I think this ride would be a great addition for both of these parks. I think this ride would fit in just fine. Not all rides have to have huge capacity. Surf Dog fits into Kings Island quite nicely and I'd assume these 2 rides have similar capacity. Although I do think it's a type-o "like IndyGuy stated" it would be neat to see a ride that has RMC track. This may be the closest KI get to an RMC for awhile as RMC manufactures the track for these attractions. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TombRaiderFTW Posted October 1, 2017 Share Posted October 1, 2017 I'm not one of the people who replied or retweeted, so I'm able to see his account. The original tweet still exists, but now there's a new one that is worded a bit more precisely: Meet the #Orlando @SkylineAttrax #rollercoaster designer responsible for new rides at @KingsIslandPR & @sixflagsDK on @BN9 tonite at 5pm. pic.twitter.com/nveU8LO8n1 — ScottFaisTV (@ScottFaisTV) September 30, 2017 Sounds like it was an ambiguous choice of words in the original tweet, as Jeff Pike DID help design Mystic Timbers... I'm calling it: no Skywarp for us. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But blocking users who commented first time around is the worse possible decision one could make, as it makes it look like there is something happening. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Creed Bratton Posted October 1, 2017 Share Posted October 1, 2017 Not necessarily, maybe he didn't want people to send false narratives based on a simple error. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JubJester Posted October 1, 2017 Share Posted October 1, 2017 That's why you proof read folks. Glad he didn't say "new bread" this time. I think blocking for someone who retweeted is very unprofessional. Sort of like that certain coaster group from YouTube who can't take criticism. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gforce1994 Posted October 2, 2017 Share Posted October 2, 2017 Say what you want, but with the Attitudes building getting demolished, I think we could get a skywarp. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would actually fit well there and create a nice visual "gate" as you enter Coney. Would fit very well anywhere in Coney though. I'm hoping we get it, and it's put somewhere to make it part of Oktoberfest and they theme it to a Giant Pretzel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think blocking people who retweeted your stuff may be the only way to remove their retweets. Does anyone have any insight on this? Regardless, I don't think this was done out of spite or anger. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The retweet will only disappear from the perspective of the two people. I am sure it wasn't done out of anger but you never know. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ask the persons who retweeted, or b). delete the original tweet. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
