Beast vs Voyage
Maybe when it becomes necessary GCI can redo the entire track and get millennium flyers on there... Or Gravity Group can clean up their act and get their 2x1 trains to work if they retrack the entire thing [emoji14]

Until it's summer and we have people passing out from waiting in line. If only there were a way to cool off when you're stuck in lines- eh probably takes some foresight for it to work

I still wonder how it'll look with the trees fully grown in

Mystic Timbers Construction Progress
I'm assuming lights such as these will be only on the lift and brake run, just like The Beast.. If any lights are elsewhere, I'm thinking along the feel of Banshee.. meaning, colored and meant to go with the theme... Though I really like the idea from.. I apologize for not remembering.. but of having the turquoise lights in the trees very sporadic almost ominous like.. Though, I wouldn't want that if you could see wires running everywhere during the day

Island Smokehouse at Soak City
Horribly designed parking lot? The entrance is right in the middle of the lot of the regular park. Or do you mean the directions you have to drive to get in? I can think of many worse parking lots than KIs lol

The Giga Speculation Thread
There are mouses that actually have fair capacities surprisingly though. Mack's Wild Maus coasters are a little over 1100 pph capacity.. Not amazing, but not bad. Twice as good as Flying Ace Aerial Chase

Cedar Point (+ Other CF Parks) May Change All Season Drink Program
But it doesnt seem to matter since its unlimited refills. The only different thing is one has a 5 minute refill wait and the other a 15 minute one. THAT could be a reason to keep it separate. But same price, same theoretical amount of drink (unless you literally refill the moment you're allowed again). it doesnt make financial difference if a guest went with paper, then paid for a cup (which offers 1$ refills anyways) and refilled for free since they already bought a plan. I only think of this because someone might vouch not to have paper plan, see other peoples bottlws and change their mind that they actually look cool and decide that's more convinient.

Coney has Special Announcement Coming March 2
A water coaster? hmm Maybe a big water slide with tubes? Time to ride implies not a body slide. They keep saying BIG so I assume it's not for the kiddies this time around

One thing seems for certain. Whoever crafted this story.. or at least gave the initial premise that grew to what's "in the shed", is truly an out-of-the-box thinker.

Cedar Point (+ Other CF Parks) May Change All Season Drink Program
Though if you buy a souvenir cup outside the free refills plan, wouldnt it make sense to allow someone with the paper cup plan to scan and refill WITH their separately purchased cup?

The Giga Speculation Thread
We'll have to just enjoy 2017 first and see what happens. Which ever park gets a new coaster sans Mean Streak RMC (and I believe there will be one besides that) I think will be very telling on what cedair fair is willing to do

It sounds more like the time of day is pertinent in what is showed. So its probably not a cycle per train.. which I think is good so that you have zero chance of 5 rides in the a month and only getting one of the shows.. unless you choose or are unable to get to the park in the day and the night. I think the shed will help finish off the story... but I'm still confused. 1- in daylight 2- at night 3- just to truly understand the shed? But when would you need to ride? Will you leave the shed the first time through with more questions than you came with? Will answers only make sense after that third ride?

Mystic Timbers Construction Progress
Yea I too remember don saying you'll need to ride in the daytime and nightime.. All it did was make me think the bottom of the shed wouldnt be enclosed... but why that matters in the effects they use? Im not sure.. Maybe... idk. Haha

Smoke? 10:54am Feb 25th - I don't think it was anything bad. Just interesting. https://www.visitkingsisland.com/online-fun/webcams-7315_34349

The Giga Speculation Thread
I think KI needs a giga [emoji14] as the next high thrill coaster addition. The other parks that got B&M hypers close to the time of Diamondback now have gigas.. one park even got a giga without ever having a hyper [emoji14] KI is missing out on that now that we have an inverting full circuit hanging coaster and finnally getting a modern woodie.. the only other things that arent rare could be... a beyond vertical drop coaster?

The Great Ride Exchange
It can fit if you put the station closer to International Showplace. And it doesn't have to be put in the exact location of BLSC. It's a trade not a replacement

Thi3teen from Alton Towers traded with Backlot Stunt Track...

It's really hard to tell because everything is in focus and the cables line up with the stump.. but I think it looks like the cables are behind the stump, and the stump is just in the foreground. I doubt it's simply the cables after the bent was erected, now hanging, not connected to a small lifting machine since all the bents were completed awhile ago

I dont understand the specific distinction of 7-1. I never noticed a diffefence between 7-2 7-3 or 7-4.. the 7th car in general is great for me

Reminds me of the Ciruque Imagines wall texture [emoji14] actually Origins: A Cirque Experience had a similar texture as well~
