Banshee line
Yes I'm sure it has the empty seat deal. However how accurate is that in determining. I'm sure one has forgot to press an empty seat here or there, or possibly one too many, it's a simple error. Not saying Turnstiles are any better to an extent. But how do you determine who in the line is lucky 1 million

Kings Island 2014 Discussion Thread
I don't know why the ride ops assign seats on a 1200+ coaster. Fill the station, suggest rows with gaps, and if you see an odd group try to pair with a single rider or another group to even it out. Dispatching empty seats unless there is no line is unacceptable IMO

They don't, and there's no turnstile. How they judge who is the millionth rider I have no idea

Could be in relation to that potentially I more lean towards the issue of it valkeying like it did opening weekend

New Haunt attraction near The Beast this year?
That sir isn't concrete, and also has a ladder protruding through the middle RIght next to it is a water main for the fire dept, they are probably accessing the utilities as discussed earlier regarding this work area

Yeah, I should be done by 0900. I'm hoping earlier. I'm mainly covering a clinic while my coverage covers somewhere else that AM, then heads to relieve me for the day. I hope he gets through the class for 0815 by that time or by the latest 0830 and heads downstairs, if that's the case I should be there by the end of National Anthem. Almost convinced to head into the park in blues for that and change after hehe, but nah I'll change and get outta that suit. But I'll text or talk to someone in the group to find y'all that AM, then I'll tag along the whole day as per usual

Interesting, I haven't been back since the day of Ka's opening..but..impressive I would be mad too, considering their dispatch delays are already cumbersome.

That could be acceptable I also was thinking maybe use other people in the PR dept..Tony uses Jordan obviously, why not use Sara, or maybe Greg at one point..like a shell game

Banshee somewhat has to rush, surprisingly with 8 ops on plat as well which I don't understand. I felt kinda bad, I had all three restraints downed and locked myself in my seat before they even got the row in front of me done which had two riders.. The looks on their faces, priceless..

Heard from a guy I work with on base that hit the parks up this weekend, said many during National Anthem just walked right on by.. As before, that REALLY grinds my gears.

It's harder @ KI. Apparently creeper people would easily spot our PR manager and follow him until he hit send on Twitter, then tralala, enthusiast shows up. I suggested camouflage, I'm guessing that's against corporate dress & appearance for now

Nice edit Cdeq, too bad a quoted post still shows the original content

Next New Ride?
Hopefully Banshee's effects remain through this off season. CF is great at selling something the first year, then it deteriorates. Lately this trend seems to have been fixed which is great, however, I will always watch carefully

Go Karting then haha

Hmm..next time in the park I'll ask Lemon Chill

FOF
It could be a just today thing. Restraints are occasionally blocked off because of a reported defect/safety issue, low capacity day forcing riders to use other cars, or recent guest illness still drying up after being sprayed down with disinfectant/water. I hope it's just a today only deal due to the first reason, those are common occurrences. If it is a new change, wow..drastic..I've seen this thing happen before, as others here have already noted it's slight similarity

Hmm, I passed up Tylersville on the way home thinking about it, but passed because I felt KI'ed out, been there too much lately. That empty I wouldn't have minded sitting by the fountains or staring out of the tower for a few hours and maybe catch a show. Ah well, big long night to prepare for, plus I need to shower and get ready and wash the exhaust fumes from racing off of me.
