Banshee's roar is very similar to GateKeeper's at the beginning of the season. GateKeeper did get progressively louder as time went on and as it was broken in. I don't think it will ever be as loud as Raptor though.

I believe that with these new restraints, the trains are wider then your normal invert so a lot of modifications would have to be made.

Can't get enough of Banshee at Kings Island? Then check out my video from media day! [youtu_be] [/youtu_be]

I hope not because man, it doesn't seem like it picks up that much speed.

Fire crews fought blaze at Clermont Steel Fabricators Monday evening No injuries reported in fire; cause under investigation BATAVIA TOWNSHIP, Ohio —A Clermont County fire Monday night required several crews to fight the flames. Multiple fire departments got the call Monday around 9:30 p.m. that there was a two-alarm fire at the Clermont Steel Fabricators building in the 2500 block of old State Route 32 in Batavia Township. Officials said the fire was in the “bag house,” where a recycling company stores its bags. Fire officials said there were not any injuries reported in the fire, and the cause is still under investigation. Source

Because it's called BREAKING THE RULES. And if you can't understand that, then you really shouldn't be part of our forum. Just because I'm excited to get to Dairy Queen to try their new Blizzard creation doesn't give the right to speed at 110MPH on the road. If you're "ok" with people breaking rules, find another place to discuss roller coasters at. Got it? Good... Not only is it against the park rules but it's also a misdemeanor in the state of Ohio under O.R.C 1711.551.

^You'd be surprised by how many people forget to have fun.

Do you think they'll eventually make RCT4 free?

Here's another Castaway Paradise trailer! If you're in Canada and have an iPad you can play it right now. [youtu_be] [/youtu_be]

Can AP MagicBands be linked to room reservations?

I believe the track is normal, but the spine on the lift is thicker.

That has got to be the most unoriginal and Cedar Fair queue i've ever seen. What ever happened to planting some trees or adding some shrubbery rather than putting in all these shade canopies? It's just switchback after switchback after switchback.

But your username says differently.

The New York Times wrote a nice article today about MyMagic+. Found this bit to be really interesting. Here's a link to the whole article. http://www.nytimes.com/2014/04/02/business/billion-dollar-bracelet-is-key-to-magical-kingdom.html

Some article highlights worth mentioning. TL;DR Mt. Olympus sucks at running their park.

Ahh, didn't know that. When I say still in testing and working out the kinks though, i'm not considering future features, i'm more talking about problems that occasionally happen like groups not being properly linked to get the same reservation, reservations not showing up in MDX, reservations changing without any alerts, and the wrong credit card being linked to your Magicband. While these issues rarely happen which is why I guess Disney has rolled out MyMagic+ to everyone, they're pretty big issues when they do arise and cause complications for both guests and CMs. Disney strives to provide a perfect guest experience for everyone, so with those issues still existing I don't see how they're able to accomplish that, at least as far as Fastpass goes. Really not trying to hate for no reason because I think it's a cool new system, just trying to figure out Disney's thinking behind letting everyone use it.

Here's what I don't get and i'm hoping someone can explain it to me. Disney is still saying MyMagic+ is in a testing phase. From what i've heard, there are still a couple kinks to work out so that's understandable, but now everyone can use MyMagic+. Wouldn't you want your billion dollar project to be nearly perfect before you release it to the masses? When MyMagic+ works flawlessly it's great, but if something goes wrong i'm not sure a normal park guest would accept the excuse that it's still in testing. Also, don't you basically have to pay to get a Fastpass now instead of having it built in to your normal ticket price? For day guests, they now have to pay to "skip" the line.

I really hope this guy is joking.

Wait a second, Captain EO is still around? How long ago did Michael Jackson die again?

Wow, just wow. That's pretty much an open and shut case right there.

Screw Falcon's Fury guys, it's all about the bacon pretzel fury! [youtu_be] [/youtu_be]

That's Walt, the B&M field guy. He's not electrical though, he's there to make sure the ride runs correctly during testing and the first couple weeks of operation. Really nice dude.

Glad to see we have a construction management expert here in the forums.
