^ Just adapt SoB for King Kobra's trains. If you're going to injure people, why not make it an artform...? -James Dillaman -

^allegedly of course. Each year it sits it gets less likely it will ever reopen. Everytime this has happened to a coaster, where it's sat dormant for a while, it doesn't bode well for its future. Just my couple pennies... -

Dear Kings Island: CUT YOUR LOSSES!!!! Seriously, just move on. SoB doesn't love you, she's only out to hurt people. Move on with your life and find something new. There's that hot little Predator down the way. Gravity Group has a bunch of little pretty ladies just waiting for a good park, and they're right here in town. It's time to play the field. Let it go! -

^ So you've been on Tatsu? I just think once you've ridden one of the newer B&M Flyers, the old Vekoma's seem archaic and rough. -James Dillaman -

Firehawk doesn't usually have a huge line, but the capacity is so low and the cycling times are so bad that it has huge waits. Huge waits and huge lines are different things. A lot of people who don't know better seem to enjoy Firehawk. I am not one of them. -James Dillaman -

I approve. It's nice to see Woodstock Express being made of wood for a change... And I like the idea behind The Great Pumpkin Coaster. Cute. I'm actually liking the transformation more than I thought I would. -James Dillaman -
Need your help please! Take the poll.

This is to settle an argument... I think it's a great boys name, but my fiance thinks it sounds like a girls name. -
Hey, so I was wondering, without looking it up, do you think the name "Luca" sounds like a boys name or a girls name? Thanks in advance -James Dillaman

Didn't Indiana Beach move to a similar system last season? I seem to remember having to scan my wristband at every ride when I went last summer. -James Dillaman -

Just wanted to say I hated Cedar Fair before it was cool to hate Cedar Fair, but if Cedar Fair is on the level with TPR, then a peace agreement shall be drawn up and I shall pay them reparations of 1 month's salary, or roughly a cheeseburger basket with fries and a large drink at one of their fine amusement parks, minus the cost of parking of course... -James Dillaman -

Theme Park Operations - 2010
jamesdillaman replied to Serial_Thriller's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
^ Why do you say Kings Island? Granted, I bash them more than most people on here, because I had a bad experience, but many of the ride ops I met there last year not only took great pride in their jobs, but also in the park. It was the cleanest I've seen it in years, and people actually seemed to be having fun while working there. I know many ride ops and other employees that read this forum, many of them even post. For example, PkiJizzMan was a great ride op at Kings Island. I also met the park management and they seemed to really take pride in Diamondback and all the exciting stuff brought to Kings Island last season, like the action sports tour and other things. It would have made more sense to me if you said 'Six Flags and CedarFair' but why single out Kings Island? Did you have a particular incident you can bring up? -James Dillaman -
^ Yeah, even groping in a dance club, if it is unwanted, is illegal. Too bad the douchebag wasn't caught at least. Even a minor crime is still a crime, and he invaded her personal space and infringed on her rights. I feel bad that her day at the park was ruined by this, and merely hope she can move on and not have it ruin themeparks for her in general. -James Dillaman

I don't see Timberwolf being removed. Between the cheer days and Spirit Song weekends, they draw HUGE crowds into the park. Huge, HUNGRY crowds that are there the entire day. I'd say with just a couple major events per year they more than pay for the upkeep of Timberwolf. Besides, KI has so much undeveloped land why would they take something out that requires almost no upkeep. They need to cut down SoB, though, unless they want to keep pouring money into it. -James Dillaman
