malem Posted July 5, 2018 Share Posted July 5, 2018 The extreme heat may have been to blame for some of the issues yesterday. All the rides (except BLSC, which was down for several hours) were operating most of the day. One lucky train of riders disembarked from the brake run of Mystic Timbers, walking back to the station via the shed. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
harmony29 Posted July 5, 2018 Share Posted July 5, 2018 We saw the train sitting at the brake run and I said to my husband now why can't that happen to us, he shook his head and said why would you want to get stuck like that? Lol 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not to make that a bad thing - it's just a normal part of operations. Really nothing to worry about. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JubJester Posted July 10, 2018 Author Share Posted July 10, 2018 @chad_1138Get drinks from there when you still can! Some members on here only see it open once or twice a year. Sometimes not at all! 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HandsUp Posted July 10, 2018 Share Posted July 10, 2018 On 6/26/2018 at 10:20 AM, lifetimecoaster said: Yesterday was a great time for my friend and I. (He apparently hadn't been to KI prior to yesterday). One thing that I noticed though, for some odd reason, Firehawk made me sick. I've been riding coasters and rides since I was very little and have never had any form of motion sickness from a ride ever, but when we rode Firehawk, I started feeling nausea coming on, and it hung with me for the rest of the day. Am I alone on this one, or is there anyone else that can ride anything, but gets sick from Firehawk? I've realized that any coasters that bang you around-esp. your head-get me a bit rattled. The effect is multiplied if I haven't had enough to eat. In bad cases, it will linger all day and I won't feel like riding much more. Maybe my worse experience of this was a day that started with Invertigo...but Firehawk has done it as well. I stay away from both. It really happens whenever I ride too much too fast. A nice greasy breakfast and 2 alleves seems to numb things up so that it doesn't happen. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LuvingKI Posted July 10, 2018 Share Posted July 10, 2018 It depends I think.. I ride all the rides regularly, but twice this year, Banshee has made me nauseous. Only ride to do it.. and only did it twice... And on another note, I miss the smooth Banshee 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
funpark Posted July 10, 2018 Share Posted July 10, 2018 I got drinks there all the time last year. That location has never been open anytime I visited this year. I was beginning to wonder if they were going even open it this year.Sent from my SM-S727VL using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Ding Dong Posted July 11, 2018 Share Posted July 11, 2018 I have been told a couple of times at KI this year I have two drink plans on my pass. All three of us purchased drink plans. Well today at a FreeStyle here at CP the associate told me my pass has two, Ryans has three and Kiefers has one but has option to be converted to Souvenir Cup for free. So I have been testing it out. (Never getting more than three cups at a time so not cheating CF in any way) Several times I have gotten 2 cups with my pass. It turns out Ryan can get only get two cups not three. Weird. But all the the half dozen times I have done this the employees don’t bat an eye and it seems perfectly acceptable to them. Now I would never really get more than 1 flavored drink in 15 minutes as I would want water in between. Will be interesting to actually try this at KI. Again never actually getting more than three at a time. Scouts Honor. Who knows maybe this is a temporary glitch. I did have to replace Kiefers pass today because he lost it at KI the other week. (They didn’t charge me). The sales associate also ended up replacing my pass because she messed something up a supervisor had to fix. But Ryan’s was not touched. To bad that meal plans don’t have the same glitch. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sixohdieselrage Posted July 11, 2018 Share Posted July 11, 2018 There was one day a month or so ago that they weren't scanning passes, so we ended up getting 6 meals. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chad_1138 Posted July 11, 2018 Share Posted July 11, 2018 Here’s the thing that kills me. At 958 we were waiting to watch fireworks. People were saying they weren’t going to happen. I went to guest services to ask and they had no idea why. As we were walking out at 1004, no announcement had been made and there were still hundreds of people sitting and waiting. Whoever made the official call should have to go tell everyone waiting that the show was cancelled. Extremely poor handling with no communication tonight. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JAHill Posted July 11, 2018 Share Posted July 11, 2018 From some of the stuff I've been reading tonight, this ordeal could could be on account of pretty much anything. Not making any guesses, but with all things considered, it's slightly concerning that we haven't gotten an official response yet. Then again, it could be nothing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

silver2005 Posted July 11, 2018 Share Posted July 11, 2018 No sort of news about the park anywhere. Also, not only is there no link to the webcams, but the page has been disabled as well if you type in the web address. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

King Ding Dong Posted July 11, 2018 Share Posted July 11, 2018 Probably unrelated but about 10:45 CP announced over the PA the 11PM fireworks were cancelled due to wind. The wind did pickup in the evening shutting down Skyride and of course WindSeeker, but it really didn’t seem all that windy. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
