People in a community for chicken are discussing CP's 2018 roller coaster theme?? EDIT: I must've missed the latest word filter, but that gave me a good laugh! Thanks to whoever made that!

HAHAHA if you type out "Coaster" and "Force" as one word, It automatically changes it to Bojangle's when you submit your post... I'm assuming the owner of this site changed it as he dislikes the Coasterforce?!?! HAHAHA Didn't know there was a war between the two websites. Anyway, getting back on topic. Gunslinger! Each of the 3 trains are a different gunslingin' character as their trains race through the wild west, "the RMC Mean Streak," in search of the stolen mega pot in the poker tournament that took place! I think I just copied the plot of the movie, Maverick, but still... It would be cool! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

michaellynn4 Posted July 25, 2017 Share Posted July 25, 2017 For the record, Bojangles is the s**t. Bo-berry biscuits FTW. I'm more and more tempted to get a Cedar Fair season pass next year as the news behind this coaster and the changes to Hurler at KD become more apparent.

I'm totally getting the Platinum Pass next year! My home park is KD, soooooo pumped for Hurler and Mean Streak. I'm doing a KI & 2 day CP trip next year for my B-Day. Has anyone done/recommend the CP VIP tours or should I just stick with the Fast Lane Plus and save the money? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JJLehto Posted July 26, 2017 Share Posted July 26, 2017 Does anyone have any additional photographs or construction updates on CP'S new RMC conversion, Abraham's Revenge? What!?

Platinum Pass to cover my first trip to Cedar Point, going to CGA again to check out whatever new ride is coming, and Knotts as well. It'll be very tempting to squeeze in a trip to KI while at CP.

coasterbill Posted July 26, 2017 Share Posted July 26, 2017 (edited) The Cedar Fair platinum pass is honestly a no-brainer, especially if you're going to Cedar Point or Kings Island where it includes Early Entry. Even if I were only going to each park once I might consider it because while the pass doesn't pay for itself with admission alone, it gives you incredible perks that make it a great deal. In order to get Early Entry at Cedar Point without a Platinum Pass you have to stay at a ridiculously overpriced resort. Early Entry at Cedar Point is awesome (and runs for a full hour) and I'd never dream of going to the park without having it. At Kings Island, they let you in 30 minutes early and you can ride Mystic Timbers with absolutely no wait. It's not quite as cool as Cedar Point's early entry since it's only on 2 or 3 rides and it's not a full hour but it's still awesome. On top of that you save money on everything you buy in the park (including Fastlane) if you give them the pass and they have a ton of ride nights at both parks for passholders. When looking at the Platinum Pass, don't just look at the cost of the pass compared to the price of regular admission plus parking (like you would with a Six Flags pass)... consider the other awesome perks that the pass provides.

Lots of good wisdom here. When visiting CP and KI last year I was able to take advantage of all of the above with Diamond Back being the night time ride ERT at KI. The Fast Pass discount for CP was a really nice surprise that I did not know about at the time. Ignore coasterbill's advice at your own peril.

The VIP tours do nothing different except there's an employee walking with you for half the day and they hold your stuff while you ride so you don't have to put it in a bin or hide it behind a tree at MF and TTD. That's IT! The cost is ridiculous. Get FL+ and you're golden. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just think it's hilarious for somebody to spend that much money on VIP tours at a theme park multiple times a year.

JT325 Posted July 26, 2017 Share Posted July 26, 2017 Woohoo! CP foum page #4000!!! Speaking of 4000, I think Gemini used to do over 4000 an hour back in the day. That wouldn't be necessary today, but it was quite cool to experience that. Even on a busy Saturday when the queue was full, you never stopped walking. It was the ultimate people eater. Three trains on each side, no seatbelts and no queue gates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southpuddle Posted July 26, 2017 Share Posted July 26, 2017 Gemini had to have been the most fun ride to work back in the days when they ran three trains on each side. Maybe someone who knows a little more about it could elaborate, but when I worked at the park, I was told that when they were in danger of "setting up" the third train (stopping on the high block brake before third turn) the crew would actually PUSH the trains out of the station to get them out faster to prevent a setup.
