Decoding was different those days. There wasn't an internet presence like there is now for information to leak. It was a different time. I was young and didn't care to pay attention at that time lol I was 15. 1

The scope of the project wasn't known as wide spread as they are now, but rumors ran rapid. Of course, it was announced earlier than usual. 3
_capture_the_thrills_ Posted July 30, 2019 Posted July 30, 2019 I’m at the park and it seems like all of the stickers are off. I will get pictures From what I was told they replaced all the posters without stickers because someone ripped off the stickers and placed them elsewhere on the poster, causing the posters to rip where the stickers were. 5
Enchanted Voyage Lover Posted July 30, 2019 Posted July 30, 2019 I wonder how many signatures KI wants or expecting? Whatever it ends up, "That was what we were expecting it to be." 3
Maverick44 Posted July 30, 2019 Posted July 30, 2019 Maybe they will want the length of track # of people lol 3 3
collin.klopfstein Posted July 30, 2019 Posted July 30, 2019 At Kings Island, it looks like the end of the world lol #teotwawki 4

Letters in the background of each poster combine to suggest the acronym, TEOTWAWKI or “The End of the World as We Know It.” While some Kings Island fans are referencing the REM song of the same name, others think the letters have a deeper meaning. One thing’s for sure, this area of Kings Island is far from “The End.” In fact, some have suggested it’s only the beginning." So could it be Alpha if it's the beginning? Here's another possible angle: Magic Kingdom's Space Mountain in Florida is actually 2 coasters under 1 roof, with 1 side being an (almost) mirror image of the other side. The 2 sides are called Alpha and Omega. Obviously, KI is building 1 coaster, but I think it would be a great idea to name the trains Alpha and Omega. Just imagine... "Hey Omega! How was that ride?!" ...and the station is immediately filled with a roar of cheers and applause! How many days until 2020's grand opening?! 3
Maverick44 Posted July 30, 2019 Posted July 30, 2019 No word yet on the 2020 opening day yet lol I wish though. 1

ThrillKingsFitzy Posted July 30, 2019 Posted July 30, 2019 He kind of looks like someone who says he would give you a free ferarri but ends up giving you a rat invested fridge with wooden wheels. 5
FUN&ONLY! Posted July 30, 2019 Posted July 30, 2019 Wow... I was gone for two days and I never thought that I would miss this much! Thanks to everyone who is decoding! 3

ThrillKingsFitzy Posted July 30, 2019 Posted July 30, 2019 Oh yeah, that guy. He kind of seems like a Kings Island fanatic too. 2
SonofBaconator Posted July 30, 2019 Posted July 30, 2019 Nevertheless I'm sure he doesn't want to get inboxed constantly about roller coaster stuff. 5
ThrillKingsFitzy Posted July 30, 2019 Posted July 30, 2019 Yeah. He does seem like a coaster enthusiast though. 3
ThrillKingsFitzy Posted July 30, 2019 Posted July 30, 2019 Seriously, I don't think a guy would be that serious about a roller coaster announcement petition.

I think the park is putting comments in that leave hints to some sort of disaster that was being covered up. 4
Magenta Lizard Posted July 30, 2019 Posted July 30, 2019 I love that the petition has a comment from “Mr. Christopher,” considering that my two favorite quotes from the FoF preshow are “Pleeease!!! Dick.” and “Mr. Christopher is on the loose!” (if you don’t recognize the references rewatch the queue-line video courtesy of @BoddaH1994 ) 11 1

ThrillKingsFitzy Posted July 30, 2019 Posted July 30, 2019 Oh, so maybe it is from the park. Maybe it's from Richard Zimmerman
