  1. Alright here you go. Once again, it's crudely drawn but the layout is very close to the real deal.
  2. "... But first, let me take a selfie..." Yes this is a real lyric to a real song.
  3. Holiday World is hosting a naming contest. Edit: Fixed link - Joey
  4. Any tips for Magnum? That ride is unforgiving to my thighs and doesn't seem to like taller people.
  5. Because Stealth is a trademark movie title that Paramout owned. Like this Coaster http://rcdb.com/3081.htm They didn't trademark the name Stealth. Unless CGA themed the ride after the movie, there's nothing wrong with it. Also the movie came out 2 years after the ride was moved to Carowinds. Ah, I stand corrected.
  6. Because you have learned all about construction schedules in your 13 years of life???
  7. ^ The campsites have always been that close to Magnum
  8. He did, it's at the bottom of his post. You could've better worded this post with: "Here is a fake park map cover I made myself."
  9. If you immediately associate a movie with its coinciding coaster (I.E. Stealth, Italian Job, Top Gun, Tomb Raider, etc.)
  10. Because Stealth is a trademark movie title that Paramout owned.
  11. I hope that if they chose to have floodlights, then only feature them on the first drop, dive loop, and loop. After that, the second half should be in pitch black darkness.
  12. If Intamin were to convert their "older" restraints to these new ones, Maverick and I305 are at the top of my list for the ones that need it most. I'm sure iSpeed could use them to, but I have yet to ride it to make that call.
  13. They are probably very busy prepping the park for opening day. Give them a break and be glad there are any updates at all. Also, their last construction update was only a few days ago.
  14. Getting this thread back on topic of Kings Island, the Bat's trains should look really good with the new color scheme. I really wish S&S would give their bat-heads back to Kings Island to mount on these trains!
  15. Crudely drawn, but should be easy to guess
  16. ^ Like you said, that is very secretive information to just carelessly blab about, but also as you said "time will tell." I am more cautious about the CP information because I'm not sure CP "owns" much of the water to develop on. Again, I could be wrong. On the positive side of things, if those pieces of info are true, then that sounds very exciting!
  17. Screamscape claims that the ARM drop tower will be ready to install very soon. On a bit of a side note: Is this the famed model of drop tower that actually packs a punch?
  18. Note: Obviously the "you" I use in this post is not directed at anyone in particular, but the many annoying smokers I've encountered in the past. Just throwing a disclaimer out there: My personal policy for smoking is the same everywhere whether I am in your home (you will not smoke mine however) or am within 5-10 feet of you. I hate breathing in second-hand smoke, and regardless of whether second-hand smoke is a really serious health issue or not, it is a public nuisance for everyone else. This is why it is socially frowned upon (you're probably going to get slapped with a fine if caught) in many states to smoke in certain public areas. Now in a theme park, you have your area, you stay in it. If the park does not enforce their designated area smoking policy, then there is a problem. Smoking in line or on a midway makes me believe you are a pretentious prick who thinks they are above the rules. I understand that there are probably a few smokers on this website, but I just ask you to stay in you area that is a bit away from the rest of us. This also leads to E-cigs and Vaps. These two products are becoming much more popular in recent years, especially with teenagers. They are all over the place now in public and are possibly trying to replace the cigarette. I am around vaps almost every week and know what they "smell" like. Yes, the scent is almost non-existent, but it's still technically something you smoke. I believe that they too should be included in the smoking policy as well. That being said, smoking is a personal choice when you start out and I strongly discourage people doing it in public. If you are addicted, you still have time to kick it.
  19. Let us take a moment to remember the image circa 2005 that was once burned into our brains and will (hopefully) soon cease to exist. It also serves as a reminder of how much the park has changed/expanded.
  20. I'm sure Paula (Raven Maven) will be more than happy to hear this news.
  21. FINALLY GOOGLE IMAGES HAS UPDATE THEIR MAP! I kept checking throughout discussion and was surprised to see SOB still standing there! NO MORE! If this post is serious, I have to say that Holiday World's image has not been updating since early winter of 2005 while Kings Island was last updated in 2012. Son of Beast was built on a bit if a downhill. So even from standing by the go-karts, it didn't quite look 200+ feet tall.
