Red Beards Revenge Building
Well, Vortex's entrance is hard enough to find anyway...

SFNE: Superman: Ride of Steel to be transformed
I hate it when companies try to force a viral campaign, and try to be "cool" with it.

Working at KI?
And games, and admissions. Personally, I would choose games and admissions over food or "park services". Great, thanks for the info...

Working at KI?
KI says 15. (their site does anyway)

Working at KI?
I'm thinking of applying for a job at Kings Island next season. Is it easy to get a job there? Is it the same as WoF where admission to all the CF parks is included? Thanks! (any other advice would be very appreciated)

http://www.screamscape.com/html/six_flags_new_england.htm The phone number actually lets you leave a message if you hit any number after the "Thank you for calling Clawshun Industries, the conglomarate..." message. Weird.

What happened to the Paramount Story?
Don't forget that Avatar has turned black! Their websites are also horrid, except CP's. Backlot/Back Lot Stunt Coaster, Timber Wolf/Timberwolf, ThunderHawk/Thunderhawk/Thunder Hawk... and check out the pic for Nick U on the KI site.

What happened to the Paramount Story?
Oh, ok. The park map I have didn't show it, but then again it shows Flight Deck as having an inversion and Drop Tower as still having Drop Zone's far superior logo, so it's not very accurate.

What happened to the Paramount Story?
That's almost as good as the rumored duct tape on BLST's control board where it said Italian Job: Stunt Track. Was it open during the season?

What happened to the Paramount Story?
Did CF just remove the movie names, or is it closed?

Looking For Addams Family Coaster Concept Art

Do You Have Season Passes to KI?
Do CF Platinum Passes count?

New Roller Coaster Requirements
I looked in the complete policies page on CP's site and I didn't see anything about it. Did I miss something? (I know the fun/safety guide has the Footwear must not contribute... spiel) I don't think DB will have one big TV, it will probably have QTVs like the rest of the park. Hopefully it'll have a SR line that starts at the beginning of the line, not most of the way up, ala Maverick and Behemoth.

That one makes a bit more sense, though, because someone died on a ride that has the same name at California's Great America.

I'm Gonna Be First (Water Dip)
Not only are you not the first or only to notice it, a poster here may in part be responsible for its name...having pointed out many times that its predecessor name honored a former CEO of Paramount Parks, who is now a honcho at Herschend Entertainment. . . Oh, so it's not self-centeredness rearing its ugly head. (Besides, it must have cost some elusive nickels to repaint it)

I'm Gonna Be First (Water Dip)
Maybe Snoopy and Kinzel's Chocolate Pool Adventure! (I can't be the only one who noticed Fort Kinzel at FoF)

It also may be losing its trains.

I'm Gonna Be First (Water Dip)
Diamondback will also be losing its lift hill, because it will save Cedar Fair some nickels.

First ride at kings island?
1. Son of Beast. 2. The Beast.

How many times did you go to KI this year?
Oh, I most certainly will be going back. If I had expected KI to be such a good park, I would have spent one less day at CP and one more at KI.

I have never in my life seen more bird poo on a coaster than the Raptor at CP. It looks like someone poured random buckets of white paint all over the supports. This was on the train. I should have gotten a picture. Raptor's supports are awful, though. It's like a certain bird of prey invited all their bird friends for a party. When I was at KI, Diamondback was under construction but hadn't been announced yet. On the Eiffel Tower, I heard multiple hushed conversations about what the name would be. "Daughter/Uncle/Aunt of Beast", "Wrangler", "Maverick"...
-
What do you think of the name "Diamondback"?
It's better than Drop Tower. And worlds (of fun!) better than Prowler.
-
How many times did you go to KI this year?
Only once. Ever. (unfortunately)
-
Guests Say The Darnest Things
I heard some great comments about the amazingly thick smattering of bird poo on the Face/Off train. "Is that paint?"
-
Whats going to happen with flight deck?
Correct. It's huge, and confusing. The way it's right next to SOB's line makes it even more confusing. I thought I was walking up SOB's exit the first time I rode it. It really could be improved...
