Banshee Construction Progress
This was probably more on topic than the recent comments about fanny packs and drawstring bags. I think it is possible that the crane is constructing the station. [EDIT] also, it appears that Clifford Jr. is back up again. There are several people by the second loop area, is there a tour going on?

2015 talk
Ok, then.The Dippin' Dots guy told me that we were going to get the worlds first rocketship ride that goes to the moon and back in a staggering 5.678654 seconds. I can never deny what he tells me, he had all the inside info.Always trust the Dippin' Dots guy! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk He's my reliable source for all things Cedar Fair. The dippin' dots Dippin' Dots guy texted me that Diamondback just fell over and that their going to add another 100 feet to it when they put it back up. It will be taller than Millennium Force.

Documentary concerning Seaworld ("Blackfish")
The Blackfish people are clever in making this movie. They did a very good job at instigating simply because it's easy to convince people using lies if the people are dumb enough to believe them. I'm more frustrated at the people that still believe this bull crap and the people who act like they are experts simply because they watched a movie on Netflix. To me, saying that you know everything about Seaworld from watching a one-sided movie is like me saying that I know everything about CGI because I watched Transformers.

Intamin or B&M
For me, it's a tie. B&M's might not be as forceful as intamins, but they are fun and reliable. Intamins might be high maintenance rides, but they are extreme and outstanding. Personally, I don't think you could go wrong when picking between those two comapnies to build your next coaster.

Oh well...... time to say goodbye to Clifford. He was a good crane. Aahhh...... so many good memories.

When will the trains be delivered to the park for testing?

Banshee Construction Progress
^Does that mean there are 100 track pieces, or is that like a code number?
-
Banshee Construction Progress
Guys, check the webcam! I think there's only one piece of track left and two supports!

Banshee Construction Progress
There was a point in time where former high school had lunch starting at 9:24am. I have my lunch at 10:45 too! Time to get back on topic. Does the crew have to install 2 or 3 more pieces?
-
Banshee Construction Progress
I saw the final supports being delivered on the webcam. I think all the pieces have been delivered.

Just a thought, but you know how Intimidator and I305 start off with an audio "start your engines"? What if at the beginning of Banshee, there was an audio Banshee scream? Just a thought.....

Cedar Fair's Future in Dark Rides
^Yes, the content can be changed easily to vary the experience. This was info was released when Triotech had just came out with the Interactive Dark Ride concept. So yeah.... zombies. My question is about when the ride will be themed to Zombies. I wonder if when september/october rolls around, will the content change, or will it only change during the Haunt.

Cedar Fair's Future in Dark Rides
If Cedar Point gets a different experience and theme, I think instead of a dragon, the creature should be a griffin. I'm really excited about Wonder Mountain's Guardian alone. I'm glad Ouimet is steering the company in a different direction. It will be great if one day a Cedar Fair fan could visit their favorite park while not having to travel all the way to Universal.

Action Zone Re-theming for 2014
That would be really cool actually and that gives me another idea for the Action Zone retheme. What if instead of a scary theme, it could be more of a medieval theme! Just think about it. All of the rides would have Medieval themes. Sure The Bat isn't exactly medieval but other rides would have cool names. They could tear down Action Zone things and put Medieval things. Instead of the water tower there could be a well or something. All of the rides would get a new coat of paint and castles and crap. Just a thought but if this were true it would take a lot of time. I kind of like this Medieval Fair idea. I think the crap fits well as most human waste was thrown into the streets and not properly handled during the Middle Ages. I believe someone said something about the bathrooms in the AZ being removed and now I know why.

SkyRise Drop: Plans for an 800 ft tall Drop Tower
The drop time on Lex Luthor Drop of Doom is about 5 seconds and since this tower is twice the size, that's about a ten second drop depending on the company design. I'd like to see seats like Falcon's Fury has, but I think some most people would have a heart attack at the top if the seats were tilted.
-
SkyRise Drop: Plans for an 800 ft tall Drop Tower
^That depends. The thrill factor would probably be higher if the seats were unique (for example, Falcon's Fury concept). I don't think height matters, just the experience. TTD is taller and faster than Millenium Force. But which one would many people consider to be better?
-
SkyRise Drop: Plans for an 800 ft tall Drop Tower
Will this tower be connected to the PolerCoaster? It would be a great combo. EDIT: I am an idiot for not reading the article first. Of course the rides are seperated.

Banshee Construction Progress
Hi, I'm new to KICentral. I've lurked around for a little bit but I finally got the account to work. Now I think the reason the station looks so low is because you go UNDERGROUND to get to the gift shop. Take a look at the station rendering: The stairs seem to cut off as if going underground. I think a basement gift shop is pretty cool. I could be wrong though but I do like the idea if I'm right.
