Two new haunted mazes and new show highlight Kings Island's 2014 Halloween Haunt lineup
I was reading the descriptions for everything on the site, and I'm sorry, but this rhyme is downright horrible:

Walt Disney World Resort announces "Frozen" ride for EPCOT
It's Disney World, people. A theme park based off a movie/TV production company. What is the big deal with possibly their biggest movie in awhile getting its own ride? It also fits perfectly, in the Norway section of World Showcase.

Haunt 2014
Kings Island really likes to wait till the last possible moment to announce Haunt. While most other parks have already, KI still hasn't and Haunt is in less than 3 weeks...I'm DYING to see everything officialy released! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Banshee down more than most B&M coasters?
Being completely honest, Banshee does go down quite a bit. But most of the time, it's for 10 minutes or so. As CharleyTheDinosaur said, it's all about the sensors on the rides. It's not like the ride is literally breaking down. ...and for weather, ugh! It will storm for 5 minutes and the ride will be down for an hour!

Kings Island 2014 Discussion Thread
I just read a Facebook review saying they drove 8 1/2 hours away on Monday to KI only to find it closed, and claiming that nowhere on the website does it say it is closed. Apparently there were many other confused people waiting in line behind her at the parking gates. It amazes me how people can plan a trip so badly that they come on a day that the park is closed. This isn't National Lampoons Vacation days anymore - we have Internet, and KIs website definitely says it was closed this past week! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

COSI -- Columbus PTR
Back when we used to live in Pickerington (suburb of Columbus) we went to COSI a lot. Being a little kid, it was great. But the strange thing is, I feel like I would appreciate it more now, just because I can see how amazing it really is. It's a really underrated place. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Carowinds will be investing $50 million in the next three years!
But KI is giving us something - a free season passholder preview day if you renew your season pass this year :-) Let's not forget that Banshee is a world-class coaster itself. Let's allow KI to get some mileage from that ride for a few years before we start chatting about our next major attraction. That's why I said "anything". Even if it means Flying Eagles. I just want something to look forward to next summer! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Makes me jealous. Banshee is great, but dang...and Carowinds isn't done yet. C'mon Kings Island, you gotta give us something for next year - anything! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Just wait for next week...!

Kings Island Photo Pass
I agree with the email thing...it gets really boring having to type in emails all day... It really is an amazing deal, no doubt about it. No tricks here. If you bought one photo from Banshee early in the day, and got another one later, boom, it's already the price of the photo pass which you could've used all day! Shameless sales pitch...

Hersheypark 2015: LAFF TRAKK (New Coaster)
What in the world is this? Looks like an acid trip, honestly...

Kings Island 2014 Discussion Thread
Well, I'm very sad that the summer working at Kings Island has nearly come to a close. It's been a great season, but, I now of course have to go back to the real world. I still have Haunt, but it's just not the same as summer at KI.

Kings Island 2014 Discussion Thread
I am hoping the storm ends soon, but it has been going strong for 20 minutes and it is as dark as night outside. And no, I will not go walk into the park. I just find it funny that whenever they predict storms, they rarely come at the time expected, and I thought the same of now, but look what happened! Just my luck.

Kings Island 2014 Discussion Thread
Decided, hey, I should go to KI now, the storms never came! Now, here I am, sitting in the parking lot, underneath a pretty heavy rainstorm. Best day ever!

Kings Island 2014 Discussion Thread
I've been on The Beast in the back at night twice in the past week. I am very sorry for my negative opinion of it. I can honestly say those two rides were insane. I still dislike how there's really no forces, airtime, and what not, but I've come to appreciate the "out of control in the woods" feeling of The Beast.

Kings Island 2014 Discussion Thread
Once you're in line for The Beast, it stops operation at 9:45 and usually begins again at 10:10 or so.

Will Diamondback always be the tallest at KI?
GYK, that was a great article. I totally agree with you. Maverick, as of my last CP trip, is my favorite roller coaster. Second is Gatekeeper. Millennium Force is...third. I didn't get to ride TTD, but still, the smallest of the major roller coasters is the best, IMO.

Whoops...hope I don't cause a stir. As for me, though, there's nothing that comes to mind....

Are you sure this actually happened or no...? Sorry for double posting but I still can't quote correctly for some reason.

Guests Say The Darnest Things
Looking through the thread I feel like some of these are completely made up...some of them just make absolutely no sense whatsoever.

Current wait times
Well, Banshee has a full upper queue and the line extends to the entrance. I can only imagine what lines for Diamondback, The Beast and others are like.

Kings Island Dreams
Whoa, now THAT was a weird dream. Please stay with me as you read - I swear I'm not insane. I slept for at least 11 hours last night, and when that happens, I have the weirdest dreams! Last night's included me buying a framed Kings Island map that the park started selling. For some reason, I decided to take the map out of the frame, and behind it was a piece of paper that had a smiley face written on it, but at the same time spelled the letters "GCI". On the other side wrote "2015". Also behind the map was a picture of Don (ok?) and somehow, a Hebrew Bible (not kidding, I swear). I started freaking out and kept setting all of the things up and taking pictures of it and sending it to friends but nobody believed that Kings Island would be getting a Jewish-themed GCI coaster. I feel like I'm missing things from the dream, because I know there was more, but I was amazed at how I figured out what the park would be getting next year. Now watch this actually happen...
