I'm wondering how much the map will need to be reworked to fit in MT

The updated map isn't available on the website yet, either on the park map page or within the education days page.

EDIT: I found something interesting while reading through the HS education days packet.  When asked on describing the shed, the following question is asked-

Describe motions that you experience while in the shed.

Thoughts?

 

That's relieving to see for me!
I "knew" there had to be some sort of physical experience in there, it couldn't've just been sounds and lights.. though that likely will be there
Vibrations? Perhaps they've developed a new experience for roller coaster trains.. maybe the track allows the cars to move more in there.. maybe something pushes the cars up slightly or allows slight angles to occur. Maybe it's simply just a forward backward sequence with a story.. 
It's actually an immersive element

^Could it also be some sort of illusion that might make people feel like they're moving? Or a combination of illusions and movement?

Kinda a little off topic. but how many bents are there for Mystic Timber and for Beast? I remember reading how many but can't remember

504 bents in total were stood on Mystic Timbers, and 811 on The Beast.

Sharing this latest pic from @KingsIslandPRs Instagram page! I didn't see it posted yet so here you go!! It's crazy that it looks like it already open and they took this pic while people were riding it lol

Wonder what happened to the webcams? When you go to the online fun tab webcam isn't there

There ya go. This was asked on a seperate thread as well. The feeds are still up.

Feeds are down

***Edit they were when I just checked but appear to be back.

 But the webcams are missing from online fun on the site. My guess is they are starting testing procedures.

Not probable considering questions for a physics class was asked to consider forces they felt. Not often would a question be asked simply to equal 0 in any direction sans gravity... imo ~

 

And especially if its meant to trick you.. the idea is education, not illusions and tricks for entertainment

 

Yeah the link is available but the streams are stopping.

I don't have access to any of the webcams.

I could be wrong but I would guess that, as OldSchool75 said, this is an almost clear sign of the start of the testing procedures in some form or another. 

They're loading in some shed equipment and theming at this time I would guess ~

The cameras were up this morning, and I saw people walking tracks.  I also noticed a smaller mobile crane in the transfer shed area.  That all ads up to what I expect is an exciting day at the park...  HOWEVER - it's a bit cold to cycle...

At least we still have this KI webcam! ...I mean.. well close enough right?

Interesting, How long has this webcam been down for? They REALLY don't want us knowing what's in the shed. Guess we will find out in 29 days.

The webcams area of the site simply isn't there actually

Maybw they took the webcams down and will bring them up after........................we get the new Cedar Fair style website

I'll keep my chips where they are

Since the webcams are down, I'm just going to use the Google Maps satellite image to see what's going on with Mystic Timbers.

Yeah.....birds eye, baby.

HOLY CRAP! IT'S GONE! IT'S ALL...JUST....GONE!

And there's some huge thing where Banshee should be!!! What happened overnight!?!?

The only pov we will see of the shed will be illegal ones probably 

If there is movement to be had in the shed, could there be a hydraulic system in place that can make a section of track tilt in any direction and move slightly side to side? I can see the hydraulic system making the track seem to shake and make jostling motions as if it was tumbling. That's my guess for the shed.

I really hope they separate the Entrance queue from the Exit queue. It would be awful to sit in line and have someone shout out #Whatsintheshed before everyone in line can experience it. I know I'll probably be walking through the park to Mystic Timbers on Opening Day with my earbuds in on full blast to hopefully avoid that conflict lol.

Yeah I know your problem. When I went on to get my bird's-eye view, everything was black and white. They got rid of Delirium and put King Cobra back. What is happening?!?!?

Exit queue?
I don't think I've had the pleasure


~~The unloading area is the same as the loading one so... we have to trust people will keep shut, or we gotta keep our ears distracted with louder or other noises

An article about the truck inspiration.

I live for air time and while Diamondback is nice I think Mystic Timbers will have more airtime.  This is likely going to be my favorite ride in the park.  I am thinking I will be be there Friday, Saturday, and Sunday.  ITs the final count down!

Where have the webcams gone? I'm not seeing them listed on the main Kings Island website.
