The new Bathroom for X-BASE? Already taken care of....

Some girl named Missouri Jane lives in the house in the fort by the Soak City train station. It's obviously a rumor because the house has been vacant for years... S.O.B. who likes to point out the obvious

That's quite a shame. That building has so much more potential during haunt than just a place "packed with wolves". S.O.B. who likes to point out the obvious...

For me, it would be to ride Thunderhead and Wild Eagle as many times as possible and take tons of pics.

Great pic! I still think it sticks out like a sore thumb but oh well.

I'm looking forward to seeing DB from the back deck!

Anything from jcgoble3's list....

^ I agree, I don't mind waiting in line for rides. Half the fun is just waiting and watching youtube videos on your smart phone.

Bring back on old tread. I'd take iron rattler, terrain and all.

This is what I saw when I was watching the news this morning... http://www.fox19.com/story/21802759/police-bob-evans-robbed-by-two-armed-men My grandma and I go to this Bob Evans constantly and we know most of the employees so its pretty shocking.The scary part is that I only live right down the road from Bob's and this is the third major robbery in Green Township. The other two robberies are from a different suspect, not related to the Bob Evan's robbery, who robbed a Dollar General and a Palm Beach Tan in the same night about a week ago.

So your just gonna single out The Beastie? S.O.B. who likes to point out the obvious

I smelt the grease from my grandpa's old tool bench just to stay sane today. I can't wait for opening day! still smelling the grease.......

I'll post on his behalf...

^ That would be a cool idea. It would be neat for BLSC or Adventure Express but I'd take into account the kids who ride those rides during the day.

If its a family that really wants to ride either Firehawk or The Beast, and be limited on what else they want to spend their money on the rest of the time they are at the park.

The Action Zone looks unreal. Great photo's ohiocolts!

All 11 FUN amusement parks had Fast Lane last year, including Knott's. (They're selling it right now, in fact. The park is open year-round.) Hmm, I was quite skeptical when I couldn't hind it on their site but your right.

Here's some of the parks and the rides that will coast extra. Worlds of Fun, Valley Fair, Dorney Park, California's Great America, and Michigan's Adventure don't have the $10 upgarde yet and Knott's never had Fast Lane. Kings Island The Beast Firehawk Kings Dominion Intimidator 305 Volcano: The Blast Coaster Cedar Point Top Thrill Dragster Gatekeeper Canada's Wonderland Leviathan Behemoth Carowinds Intimidator Nighthawk

How much money does Cedar Fair think they will make, honestly? I'm sorry but, no one is going to pay that much. I already get hacked off when I wait for an hour in line for Firehawk and I see other people just walk right towards the station.

Here's my image: As you park enter the parking lot, and park your car, you board a tram taking you to the main gate. As you look to your left, Invertigo is painted aqua and royal blue like it is now. As you enter the park, you see the Kings Island logo, the old one from back in the 70's. There is no crappy robot dinosaur to greet you. If you walk down the right side of International Street and take a right again about a hundred feet, you will enter Planet Snoopy. All the rides are the same as they were from 2010. Planet Snoopy has expanded onto Picnic Grove. An additional kids coaster is added to the expanded kids area as well as the addition of more small flats. Children view the locomotives pass by from the platform that many of you see by the train shed junction. Rivertown is completely different than what is is currently. There is no ginormous white building between the K.I.&.M.V.R.R and The Beast any more but instead a larger Rivertown. Swan lake still resides and Diamonback is in the corner of Rivertown, (The station is where the block breaks before the 6th drop currently is). Filling up the rest of the space, more flats are added, as well as more resturants. Guest wave at the happy passengers on the Kings Island and Miami Valley Railroad before it goes over the bridge and into the woods. The two locomotives travel through many scenes that the railroad used to have back in the day. Kenny Van Meter has his original look as well http://s1325.photobucket.com/user/sonofbaconator/library/KIC?page=1. In my image, the LCS and S.O.B. never existed and there would be a that extended Coney Mall mid way that was discussed in other threads. X-Base would be expanded to the storage area where the sheds currently reside to the left of The Racer making X-base its own section instead of a subsection to Coney Mall. X-Base would be a government- extraterrestrial sort of feel with some flats, a restaurant, some games and some restrooms. Kings Cobra would be where Congo falls is now and Congo falls would be in Soak City. The Tiques would still be in there original place and the BLSC would be gone. The Eagles would also return as well as many older flats that shouldn't have been taken down. WindSeeker is a Star Screamer flat with no malfunctions. There is a lake under Flight Deck with some extra aviation theming to make it really seem like riders are in a fighter jet. Anything I didn't mention is fine the way it is.

In a perfect world, there has to be a perfect Kings Island. Everyone has different perspectives on what they think is perfect and what they think is flawed. What would a perfect Kings Island be like in your image?

*sorry for double posting, my computer is slow at times. Come to think about it, it would be a triple post.

I would like to see it go backwards again... Don't get me wrong, I'd love to see it go backwards again too. I LOVED recaR. I was very fired up when the announcment was made that they were making it go forward again in the name of nostalgia. But, as we later learned, it was due to state requirements. Most of us on here understand the reasons it cannot currently go back to backwards operation, I just find it irritating that the GP doesn't know or understand. I thought the same. But when I tried to explain the state requirements to someone on the KI Facebook page, my comment was deleted, and Don told me that it was deleted because it was incorrect and that The Racer was turned back around because the company chose to. Now I don't know what to believe. Edit* Terp kinda beat me to it I believe that the company chose to "flip" the backwards Racer. State requirements don't change the same time owners change. They didn't change it when Paramount purchased KI seeing that Racer ran backwards prior to the purchase. In conclusion, its a Cedar Fair thing. I'd say more but I don't want to go in to further detail with my thoughts.....

I thought it would be cool to make Picnic Grove an abandoned theme park scare zone during Haunt. It could feature more defunct ride items, lots of fog and lots of ghouls lurking under the shelters.
