If you mean the new kids stuff, to the left of Mondo Monsoon (if you're looking towards it from the path)

Permits for A Soak City Addition and Improvements coming in 2025
It even lists the additions price on that publicly-accessible city-governed web site, very interesting how much it costs! Lot of money for sure, don't always realize how expensive this stuff is. Update: The construction files are listed publicly alongside it too. Look at your own risk. Went through them, gonna be a great addition, very excited

Construction in area 72

Ride Wait Times 2024
I've heard some rumors, but nothing confirmed from the park. Rumors are still rumors, not saying them here. Hope everything is alright.

The Beast closed?
May she get better soon! Today is an unfortunately terrible day for the park, so many big-ticket rides down. Hope anyone who went today is finding other things to do!

Kings Island next coaster survey 2024
KI Decoding 2025 beginning soon maybe...? Let's hope! My take on it though is it's less what coaster guests might want and more what elements those contain... Giga dive? Height. Tower coaster? Intensity. Family thrill? Themed but tame/fun coaster, i.e. Hagrids, Indoor/Outdoor? Another dark ride...

Kings Island General Discussion 2024

Six Flags and Cedar Fair Merge
My initial concerns: - Dorney may be a Geauga Lake part 2 - Six Flags Kings Island / Six Flags Ohio / Six Flags Cedar Point… (don’t think they’d do this) - CF now will own another CGA… - Drop in quality across chain (already seeing this at Knotts to be honest) Some good things though: - Better FastLane system (FlashPass is pretty cool imo) - CF cleaning standards and maintenance upkeep across more parks There’s more but I’m not gonna write a block of text. Cheerio.

Six Flags and Cedar Fair Merge
I feel like parks are going to be more stagnant in changes. Who knows though? I just want KI to keep on chugging, that’s why I love it so much. Wild to wake up to this.

KIC Photo Gallery - Loss of Photos
Thanks for clearing it up! Wish you all the best in migrating everything.

KIC Photo Gallery - Loss of Photos
Photos in parts of the photo gallery on the main KICentral site have recently gone missing. Don't see any mention of this currently so going to make a post here so at least one other person can confirm it's not showing for them either. Attempting to view the individual files results in a 404. Just as a precaution I have attempted to access these through other devices, different networks, and different browsers. Steps to reproduce: Visit https://KICentral.com/photos/ Search for "Maps" or "Haunt 2018" or any of the other categories listed below (some more are impacted too) Open the photo gallery Try to see if the photos within them load properly Some categories have some photos, but most are inaccessible/missing. I do not know when this started occurring or if it is the result of some backend work, but better safe than sorry. Please correct me if this is just some temporary work! Nonetheless hope this can be fixed, don't want to lose some of this history.

KI Comms
Coming back from my grave to post this, so here's some fun stories of mine I've dealt with over the past couple of years. Sorry for the wordbomb, it's a lot. Incident #1: Middleman (representing a park official, don't know who specifically) reached out to me regarding a project of mine I had made public. No shade to the middleman if you know who you are, you're a cool person. Incident #2: Guess this one is more oriented towards the forum but it has relevance to the park too. When Coasterstock 2023 details were posted on the website, it was past knowledge to me that since it's on the website it's an "official source", so I thought posting it would've been fine. Nope! Alright, guess not then. Please update the KIC ToS as it's a little confusing. maybe it falls under the "Posting information that is not public record" rule? Define public record please. Got striked, won't elaborate on that, but very shortly after I was blocked on KI socials. I was unblocked a few days later, but that still stuck with me. I know I can be handful sometimes when I get excited over things but I only want to help and have a good time. It pains me, but that's that. I would love to interact with their socials and this site more but I'd rather watch from a distance. Shoutout to the two girls who took Kyles position after he moved to KD, they're doing a great job Haven't seen much mention of them here yet. Make sure to follow zpop7 (Elizabeth) on twitter, she's been doing a lot with the parks socials lately. I regretfully don't know the name of the other girl, sorry if you see this but you're doing great! Elizabeth was doing interviews with news stations over Grand Carnival if you didn't know. I have a lot of respect for Don, without him I don't know where the park would be. Sorry if this post comes across wrong, not my intention to spread hate or anything. Thanks for coming to my TED talk I guess. :wave:

2023 Offseason Speculation/Work
Really hoping they paint it :fingers_crossed: Excited to ride it! Curious if they'll do the north side next off-season?

Coasterstock 2023
Was gonna start a new thread but noticed this one, so I'll post here. Recent news from Daddy Don, (via the Coasterstock Facebook group), Tickets for 2022 Coasterstock went on-sale around the end of this week last year. We may see something similar for 2023, but Don/KI usually give at least a days heads up by the looks of it! I am going to try to attend the event again this year, anyone else going to try attending? I advise checking the Coasterstock page for any updates should they appear...

@Hawaiian Coasters 325 Here is that same area about a week ago: and that same area about a month ago: Def interesting!

2023 Offseason Speculation/Work
I would say weather, but it's certainly been warm enough to paint recently. Maybe it's something they got planned for later in the off-season. Seems very odd for sure though.
