Coaster Clubs?
This thread has totally answered a question I asked in the Media Day Thread! I will be joining GOCC, after a long time following them and checking out all of their content online and hearing what people here have had to say about them, I am totally with them! Can't wait to become an official member!

New Ride Coming to Coney in 2014
What would you think of them using some of the area around DA that isn't being used currently for a ride like this? Add it into the ticket cost of the exhibit. It would make the area have a longer lasting memory to those who go, and make people want to stay in the area longer if they have a chance to ride a ride while there too. Maybe i'm overthinking it.

The Bat flies again at Kings Island
I cheered for the fact that I was sick of staring at it with the knowledge that I would never ride it again, but I was sad to see it go for the sake of how much I loved it.

Flashback Till February 2014
Don't have to be a kid to ride it! Check out my Avatar haha.Haha I know. I do still ride it. I just liked it better when it was Scooby Doo.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Totally agree. I wish they would get new guns in it. The ones they have right now are starting to go bad. I always try to get a new high score or to beat my friends every visit. We usually ride it 2-3 times a visit, especially on the more dead days. It would be neat to see a full on revamp of it with new guns, themes, and such. Might be asking too much though.

Banshee Construction Progress
Sunday is a religious holiday for many, and normally requires premium compensation for construction workers.Also, avoid Chick-Fil-A on Sundays. But Sunday is usually the prime day that I want Chick-Fil-A

The Bat flies again at Kings Island
I am still one of the people that doesn't like the change of the name, but I have to say that the ride is looking good with its new facelift so far. I would like to see modification to the cars, or even themed Bat Shaped cars to go along with it. Maybe bring back some theming underneath the loading station, kind of a cave feel. It might change my thoughts on the switch to The Bat. But in my heart it will always be Top Gun haha.

Scream for A Kid Again on Banshee
I really want to do this! I love doing things for charity when I can and to pair it with my love of Coasters just seems right!

Best Ride Crews 2013
The best 3 ride crews that I experienced this summer were as follows: 1. Gemini (CP) - We went on the birthday of the ride opening and the crew was active and fun the entire time! 2. Gatekeeper (CP) - Always fun people working this ride. We saw about 3 different combinations of people for the day and they were all nice and pleasant. 3. Diamondback (KI) - Went during a power hour, and the pace that the employees were going was awesome while still being super enthusiastic and interactive.

The Most Ridiculous Thing a Ride Operator has told you.
I would love to do park history trivia on Delerium. I don't think it would be as easy as it is on Zephyr though, which is where I've had that happen before.

If Six Flags owned all Cedar Fair Parks?
The sole negative I see is the amount of commercialism of other brands all over that they practice at the Six Flags parks. Although I see why they do that from a business standpoint.

Banshee Trains
I think Gatekeepers problems are solely based on size differences of patrons, which is obvious. I like the idea of the restraints, but personally I had an issue with them hurting my collar bone. With that being said, I trust that B&M is woking on the issue before Banshee's cars ship. As for the "fat row", I had a pretty hard time getting on Wicked Twister at CP, yet I fit comfortably on every ride other than it at the park. I am a huskier guy, 5'11 235lbs. I know its the seat design/train design, but at the same time, the placement of the buckle on that ride is terrible. I got my 2 clicks comfortably, but couldn't get the buckle, so I ended up stapling myself. Just had to throw this in since it was discussed.

BANSHEE CREATURE ON BANSHEE CAM!
Exactly what I though when I saw it.

FRIDAY NIGHT THROWBACK pt II - "Superstars"
I love the set changes! That would be something fun to see in some of the newer shows. Maybe as an homage to this.

Phantom Theatre POV
As you can see in my avatar, I do like Boo Blaster, mainly as a contest between friends than anything. I would've loved to see a more traditional dark ride, like Phantom Theater go in when the CF changeover occurred, but I could've taken it either way. Phantom Theater definitely had a certain charm to it that I really loved. I am happy to see that various props are used throughout the Haunt though.

Racer runs backwards?
Backwards or Forwards that ride will forever be one of my favorites in any park. I wish it had the BW experience, but having done it so many times when I was younger, I'm glad to have the memories of it.

FoF second line?
We rode train 2 the other day, and i can honestly say I prefer the back train.

Will 2014 season passes be valid for haunt this year?
That would be awesome to see the scare rooms! Might be too intense for some, but I would love this!

Banshee Construction Progress
I had the same reaction to the pictures. I knew at least 3 had shown up, but I counted what looked like 6 so far.

FoF second line?
If its what I think you're talking about, its right next to the launch station right?

Future of Invertigo
Just saw that. I'm about at 15 POVs during the day and 10 at night. As far as Invertigo goes, i'm not a huge fan myself. Its not that its a bad ride, but I think its played out. Boomerangs are definitely fun to ride, but after a while it gets kind of boring. I would love to see something like Green Lantern go in, but I don't think Invertigo should leave. I'd be cool with it staying for the fact that I love the way it looks.

Why does delirium break down so often?
For me its 50/50 anymore. Half of the day its running amazing, then it just fails out of nowhere.

Songs you have heard at KI
There is a lot of stuff that would make my day, but our park never plays it. Heck the only time I've heard music that I enjoy at an amusement park was during luminosity at CP.

Do you wear a fanny pack to parks
I've perfected the art of pocket stuffing in cargos, so no need.
