Terrible timing by Kings Island staff (IF this is indeed just a routine software update) - but DAYS? What type of software update takes days? You know, there was a time when we didn't have live video cams to watch roller coaster construction on. You'll all survive. 4 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

King Ding Dong Posted October 22, 2019 Share Posted October 22, 2019 Starting to suspect this is a ransomware attack. The likely perps are the minions at Kentucky Kingdom or those dirty elves at Holiday World. Any other suspects? 3 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Enchanted Voyage Lover Posted October 22, 2019 Share Posted October 22, 2019 Does it suck we can't see what's going on? Yes, yes it does. We all know two cranes are up now and that they looked like they were working via the pics provided by @BoddaH1994. (Thanks again) Who I really hate this for are those who are making a time-lapse video via the web cam. The cam could come back up and several pieces could be installed, station roof could be on, who really knows what all could be happening during this time. Some will say "It's not their images anyway.", true but after recording images since the camera moved weeks ago I'm sure they are beyond mad. I know some out there don't care, but I hate it for those trying to make something historical for us to watch when construction is complete. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hawaiian Coasters 325 Posted October 22, 2019 Share Posted October 22, 2019 Using the image from weatherbug taken by @JonahWilliamson I made a mockup of what the coaster's lift could look like from IS. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JonahWilliamson Posted October 22, 2019 Share Posted October 22, 2019 1 minute ago, BBN said: ^Shouldn't it be taller than DB? Perspective wise DB is closer to I Street then Orion is. If you could walk in a strait line to DB and Orion youd get to DBs turnaround into the station quicker then you could walk to Orion all the way back by FOF. Plus the lift is going even deeper from the station so it wont look crazy taller from the ground in the parking lot 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hawaiian Coasters 325 Posted October 22, 2019 Share Posted October 22, 2019 So I'm guessing some of the GP will still think DB is taller than Orion? Probably until they ride it though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JonahWilliamson Posted October 22, 2019 Share Posted October 22, 2019 I wanna give credit where its due. @CoasterOhio sent me the weather bug back a few months ago and thats how i remembered it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheFloppyDisc Posted October 22, 2019 Share Posted October 22, 2019 I may just be dumb, but I never realized Diamondback and Orion's lifts are basically at the same angle from a bird's eye view. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
