BoddaH1994 Posted July 18, 2019 Posted July 18, 2019 August 16th is National Roller Coaster Day. I could see them announcing on that date. 3
csikoth Posted July 18, 2019 Posted July 18, 2019 In terms of announcement day I would like to see them use Timberwolf. Plenty of space for a large crowd. 6

None of us know for sure obviously but it is within the timeframe we would've expected it to be, and we've now heard it from more than one source. Sure, take it with a grain of salt, but I'm definitely going to proceed as if that's the date so I've got my ducks in a row if it is. Idk who this person is that is saying this is going down. He could be some Joe Schmo. idk? I mean I hope its for real haha but also stepping lightly. 1

With the removal of Invertigo as well. Sorry about double post. For some reason the page like froze and nothing new loaded. I am not sure what happened lol 2
Codyfryguy Posted July 19, 2019 Posted July 19, 2019 It could be me looking into things too closely again... but it seems to me like Kings Islands Twitter account has focused heavily on gravity today... maybe the answers we've been looking for have been right in front of us the whole time...Sent from my SM-G955U using Tapatalk 4
ohiocoasterfan Posted July 19, 2019 Posted July 19, 2019 Nah none of these are teasers. When and if they tease it will be open and obvious. Signs and clear social media references. 2
Phantom Theater Posted July 19, 2019 Posted July 19, 2019 I don't think they will do any teasers for this ride. It's a little late in the game, and Xbase is off the beaten path. 1

It's a little late in the game, and Xbase is off the beaten path. I tend to agree. Even with Xbase being out of the way, I really do think it's strange that KI has apparently decided not to tease the biggest attraction they've built in the last 10 years. Not just strange, but also regrettable imo. At the end of the day I'm sure we're all going to enjoy the announcement and of course getting to finally ride this thing, but I really do hope the next time KI plans to add something new like this, that they take the time to post little tidbits at least on Social Media. I think it's also worth noting that the guy claiming to be an employee yesterday on Reddit also mentioned that there would be no teasers at all. 2
Hawaiian Coasters 325 Posted July 19, 2019 Posted July 19, 2019 The guy on Reddit told me that 8 pm on August 15th is when "the festivities" begin. So maybe it'll be more than just an announcement. Like a celebration festival with an announcement. Kinda like what Cedar Point did for unveiling Steel Vengeance with the Frontiertown Hootenanny. 4

Ferdinand Hawkins gets shot by Paul aris and takes all of Ferdinand Hawkins land and makes something greater of it- introducing Polaris! Not better than any of the other gigas but certainly better than Firehawk

Browntggrr Posted July 19, 2019 Posted July 19, 2019 Rest assured, there will be teasers. It is a no-brainer way to market 2020 season passes. 3
sixohdieselrage Posted July 19, 2019 Posted July 19, 2019 @ldhudsonjr If there were multiple streets with the name, I would say it. But, it's something in our solar system. And multiple ones. Oops. 1
HandsUp Posted July 19, 2019 Posted July 19, 2019 Teasers are fun, but in this case, what is really the point? You really have 2 groups of people-The Nerds (us) who already know minute details of this entire project and have disseminated plenty of that info to the GP...and the GP who is basically like, "Awesome, when can I ride it?" 5
BeeastFarmer Posted July 19, 2019 Posted July 19, 2019 You know, it has almost been an anthem around here that "just because they've done it one way in the past doesn't mean they're going to do it this time or in the future." So maybe, just maybe... That's what they're doing this time. Maybe we've had teasers in plain sight this season and last season. Maybe the barrels in tower gardens last year actually meant something. Maybe all the barrels that were put out for Grand Carnivale that contain flowers mean something. Or maybe not. Sent from my Pixel 2 XL using Tapatalk 2

Sure they're not the eye poping out teasers, but that doesn't mean that Don will not say little hints here and there. He loves to play with our brains, and tease us. Also just little goofy things, like the possible odd space themed names on the store front. I believe if any teases do happen, it'll be after they announce the official Announcement date. Then they'll throw a little sign on the fence for the GP, just like MT's announcement sign. That'll probably be it. Which will be plenty. =D 1
Maverick44 Posted July 19, 2019 Posted July 19, 2019 It think it would be cool for the signs on the fence. Like MT where it said " Watch for Falling Trees". This time it could say " Watch For Falling Stars". 5

fryoj Posted July 19, 2019 Author Posted July 19, 2019 Or maybe the Orion constellation over the park at night has been the teaser the whole time! 3 3
collin.klopfstein Posted July 19, 2019 Posted July 19, 2019 I tried but windows paint is legit so hard to work with 9
Joshua Posted July 19, 2019 Posted July 19, 2019 ^There appears to be a floating object in the sky? Is it a UFO perhaps or did the train fly off the tracks. 7
Maverick44 Posted July 19, 2019 Posted July 19, 2019 Haha that;s funny. Does that mean Aliens hold the teasers? 2
