Meal Deals, and meal deals
It has. My wife has not been yet, but we have used her meal plan each time we have eaten (my boy can put it away when he takes the mind to). We have had no problems

Decoding Episode II: Rivertown 2017 and the Falling Trees
Congo Falls then. Sorry. I call it both.

Current wait times
Longest wait I had for a ride was 30 minutes for Diamondback (which was still good). After that, food lines and getting through security was my biggest waits. Firehawk was walkon from around 7 to close

They were running Amazon Falls (and folks were riding it).

Diamondback was 30 minutes and matched the app. Are they getting better or is this a coincidence?

No one at top of steps stopping at Diamondback but still moving quickly. Firehawk is full but is only running one side. Lots of food places and stores closed with some saying will open at 4 or 5. Both funnel cake places currently closed

Fast Pass
It did not slow us down, it was just odd. I noticed that today was a different color and logo.

Fast Pass
I had something odd happen using the Fast Lane Saturday. We had been using them all day but when we got to Firehawk, they scanned them. I found it rather odd and asked the operator that sits at the dispatch. He said it was in case we had already used them. When I told him that this was the only place that was scanning them, we kind of flipped out and made like every ride should be using them. After our rides on Firehawk, we continued on. No more scans anywhere else. Flight of Fear may have had them, but we did not ride that. I guess this is something new?

Kings Island 2016 Discussion Thread
Now that I know how to do it, it does not seem so bad. I seems to favor those approaching from the South. Going in, I worry about the split to the tolls. After the tolls, it gets a little hectic as well. I guess they are using the cones to try to space people as needed, but I always end up turning around to get in at the end of the cones. Going out, I have started using the South exit. No issues so far. Lots of people walking not paying attention, but that is nothing new.

Funny thing was that we were able to get 2 rides on Diamondback (even with some stack) in less time than it took to get served with plain orders (no special stuff) at the Chicken Shack

App says 75 but Diamondback is about 15

Rides were down for a while around 4:45. We had dinner and when we got done, everything is back up. Lines are pretty light. Beast was about 10 minutes.

Quick question: will ERT be in effect for Friday the 22nd?

Funpix
Ok. Pic posted in the Preview Night Page. Had to go to the Funpix webpage and when you preview it, it shows without the border marquee. Still figuring it out. Also, there is a self station outside The Beast by the arcade. The funpix guy said more will be coming into the park. It took 3 tries to get it somewhat figured out, but it does seem like it will have potential

Gold & Platinum Pass Exclusive Preview Night 04/15/16 (5-10 p.m)
Funpix pic without the border. 1st ride on Diamondback from 2016, 2nd train of the season. Thats me and Ganners behind the Nochickens(s), with Magenta Lizard in front of them. I think these are Chris's legs behind me. Edit: Taken from my funpix files

So far, our experience has been better than I thought. At preview night, the system was still buggy, but they do look like they are trying to get it going. I like the self scan concept, but it was not always working. I did prefer last years, as you got a pic with and without the ride marquee, so you got some better pix. Heres to hoping that they work on this. Interesting enough, there was not one on Firehawk. Once I get a chance, I did get one with a group of KICers on first ride of Diamondback for 2016, that I will post.
