I know you can't really trust these, but here's next Thursday night's weather forecast! Hopefully it stays this way since it would be fitting to have the announcement under the stars on a clear night!

 

I wonder where the announcement would be if it rains?

Every forecast I have seen shows wonderful weather.

GateKeeper's announcement was held outside in the rain.

I wonder if You Need To Calm Down is aimed at everyone thinking this is going to be a bad coaster

Was the playlist actually made by Kings Island or was it a joke?

Maybe a themed tunnel at the first drop. Not just a tunnel that you go through like Leviathan, but a tunnel with theming. Maybe fog or a light effect simulating traveling through space. 

Like one of those fun house tunnels that messes with your eyes and balance?

@Waltny I hope not, I'd like to ride the coaster, not wait in the queue while they clean the train and run it empty

Had this lovely experience waiting for DB last time...

Side note, I know someone just posted some awesome high res photos in the last couple of days, but we are headed to the park in the morning... Any interest in seeing some more posted tomorrow night  or sunday?

KI needs to add Don't Worry Be Happy to this playlist:)

Wish we could get @Moogie77 to take some pics of the media kit she received in the black box..

This is quite interesting. There's definitely songs on there that dont play at the park. Wonder if there still some hinting going on.

 

That playlist made me think the coaster is going to be called either Armageddon or Apocalypse. Then I found out there are coasters out there with both those names.

I was thinking  the name could be Supernova. Keeping with the end and space theme

Well it's not going to happy yay and aw.

There is this thing called EOS Land Viewer and it is like google earth but live satellites and shows the date the satellite flew over. This shows today of CSF, its crappy quality but you can see where the blue track is just for an update. : https://eos.com/landviewer/?lat=39.06746&lng=-84.12105&z=16

Double Post: you can buy higher quality photos but its pretty expensive

I’d honestly prefer just Nova. Seems like that rolls off the tongue and sticks with the theme.

Yeah maybe. I just think Supernova has more umpf behind it. But yes Nova rolls off the tongue better

Why is everyone so convinced the ride is going to be named something other than Polaris or Orion? Even if it's not going to be either of those, the chances of it just being something random people have pulled from thin air are pretty slim....

This is decoding and people are having fun speculating.

Slow down

And yeah Nova or Supernova would be awesome

We are just speculating and having fun. Some of these names make sense

I just came back from Dollywood and have question- some post not long ago mentioned having a $120,000,000 budget, this ride bring $30,000,000.

I was confused by who had the budget? KI or CF and what was the timeframe this budget is allocated for? I think he said 2020 only so if correct, is that just $120m for all of CF then?

120 million budget across the chain.

I personally don't think it'll be Orion or Polaris simply because I can't recall ever having the ride actually named what we've found copyrights for prior to the announcement :p
