Visually, I'm expecting something like the family-friendly version of what was in the Chaos building after the announcement.

Is Soak City underrated?
Yeah, I think it's appropriately rated. Like silver said, we need more modern attractions. It makes it hard to get rid of the "empty" feeling since the middle of the waterpark is severed by a no wake zone with the electrical lines above. If one day that were needed to be moved, that would open up a lot of opportunity; I can't imagine how expensive and difficult that would be to get clearance for.

2020 Entertainment
Not sure, but I think it's a safe assumption that Carnivale may (will) return. Have absolutely no clue what the KI Theatre could see. We've seen circus-esque things for years now.. I think 6? since 2014? icr. While I love the impressiveness of it, it could be time to try something else out. I'd be happy either way~ I hope they can get talented singers, dancers, and musicians also~ Hopefully the summer show budget continues to get better and we can see more improved production values.

Can we let the mods of this site moderate, and the rest of us just talk about the construction progress? Me, being hypocritical for this one post.. hopefully no more. This is tiring. Argue about it in PMs, or make a request to a mod in PMs. Edit - I do see Malem's clarification; but the arguing is every time someone messes up. Let me go see what other people think... um.. somewhere else.

That's the same reason I.. (secret) kinda like Appollo's Chariot more than DB Those twists were surprisingly fun. I've never gotten a chance to ride Nitro. I'm looking forward to that last drop for Orion! Even if it only goes down half as far as it really could've

Glad we won't be getting any more false alarms that they were removing the temporary supports XD

Vortex Removal Updates
Or don't :p -- I like BoddaH1994's postulation of our new GM wanting a better feel. I think that is probable. Vortex's station would definitely be noticed being next to antique cars, and WindSeeker. It makes sense to not want to have a vacant station in the midway, especially when it's an older building.

Rivertown expansion concept
I too always dreamed DB's helix could have paths on both sides leading to The Beast! I like your concept! We'd just have to have a decision to demolish TR's building though; get ourselves a cool tunnel leading to The Beast :p

It has been taken out. They were magnetic ones I believe. See KI's official 2014 POV to see it. That's why there's a random concrete pad underneath; to use a lift for maintenance.

2020 Additions and Improvements
This is the reason I didn't try real larosa's for a VERY long time. Once I went to a proper restaurant, I really enjoyed it. Idk why they allow their name to be tarnished at Kings Island.

But maybe it doesn't last though. Banshee's was removed.. One can hope :p

I'm excited that the low-to-the-ground-non-inverting-zero-g-roll is finally finished! Those supports have been there for awhile :p

Very happy that they readjusted the cam so that the entire ride is in view rather than it cutting off the station area. Makes me wonder if it's manually adjusted and you can't for-sure tell where it's pointing lol edit - I'm aware I'm not the first to notice it; just been sitting on that desire for awhile :p

Lol when it was confirmed we were getting a giga, I thought it meant Vortex would get repainted (at least partially again), just like when DB came. Haha hahah..uhehwhehuhuh...

I'm gonna hate on Orion where I see fit, and I'm not going anywhere Looking forward to my first ride though! -- BTW we now have an additional piece of track on the turnaround. Only way back is toward the brakerun!

Came to see how the ride looked in the snow. Interesting that they're still doing a test run for Zephyr lol

Who knows, but I'm certainly just hoping it's not going to be a substantial setback.
