IneedTPforbunghole Posted July 30, 2013 Share Posted July 30, 2013 These 2 tweets caught my attention. They might mean nothing, but they could be important. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Koasterking48 Posted July 30, 2013 Share Posted July 30, 2013 Pretty sure all of these tweets mean we are in the home stretch for the announcement day. I'm ready for it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

arby Posted July 30, 2013 Share Posted July 30, 2013 https://www.visitkingsisland.com/gforcify/ Click the link and G-forcify your the top menu bar; it's a blank page though. Isn't that interesting? I hope this has something to do with the new project! I don't think it has anything specifically to do with Kings Island. What tipped me off was the page source. You'll see that page calls an inline frame referencing http://50.56.214.67/gforcify/?park=7. That made me dig a little deeper and all of their parks except Knotts and Gilroy Gardens have the same page on their site referencing the respective park id the developer used for each park: http://50.56.214.67/gforcify/?park=1 - California's Great America http://50.56.214.67/gforcify/?park=2 - Canada's Wonderland http://50.56.214.67/gforcify/?park=3 - Carowinds http://50.56.214.67/gforcify/?park=4 - Cedar Point http://50.56.214.67/gforcify/?park=5 - Dorney Park http://50.56.214.67/gforcify/?park=6 - Kings Dominion http://50.56.214.67/gforcify/?park=7 - Kings Island http://50.56.214.67/gforcify/?park=8 - Michigan's Adventure http://50.56.214.67/gforcify/?park=9 - Valleyfair http://50.56.214.67/gforcify/?park=10 - Worlds of Fun None of them return anything, btw.

cfc Posted July 30, 2013 Share Posted July 30, 2013 Oh fudge they're gonna call it SON OF BAT aren't they? I'd prefer "Second Cousin of Bat," or perhaps "Bat-in-Law." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TyRush Posted July 30, 2013 Share Posted July 30, 2013 I feel the talk about the Bat is hinting even more towards an inverted coaster. And some day in August they will announce it because of the 1-31, go figure, but i like the hints. Very anticipating!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SbSteveZ Posted July 30, 2013 Share Posted July 30, 2013 I love the childish post they put up. in a good way of course, i just think of a little kid yelling DON'T SPOIL IT!!!! But I guess that means they know! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wes Posted July 30, 2013 Share Posted July 30, 2013 ^ You left out @coasterrumors previous tweet, which was a joke about deep fryer oil. The KI twitter was only responding to that joke Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skramp Posted July 30, 2013 Share Posted July 30, 2013 So couldn't find if it had been mentioned before, but Cedar Fair re-upped the trademark on the name Banshee on the 8th of July. I think they just keep that around to mess with people!! I would be all in for The Bat V2, having ridden the original, would be cool. And remember how badass the trains looked on it!!!

mike_kelly Posted July 30, 2013 Share Posted July 30, 2013 Doesn't Cedar fair try to avoid naming coasters the same?? I know with the consumption of the Paramount parks they already had some of that naming in place??? With that being said, Canada's Wonderland already has a Bat.. Just Sayin.

AusCoasterFan Posted July 31, 2013 Share Posted July 31, 2013 I don't know if it was mentioned on here before but on the 27th they said "@KingsIslandPR: One year ago today we announced that Son of Beast was being removed to make way for future park expansion." Then moments later they deleted that tweet and replaced "removed" with "dismantled" I don't know if it was a mistake or not but maybe some track is being used for something else in the park? yeh. Son of Son of Beast... "The Roughest of Them All" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd assume this has something to do with a new Cedar Fair ad campaign. Knotts is probably left out because all the fine work they've done on making it a family friendly park and I probably get more gforces running then I do at Gilroy so that one is obvious. As for the ad campaign, sounds quite Six Flagish to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Homeboy23 Posted July 31, 2013 Share Posted July 31, 2013 Wonder if they meant AM. 10 PM seems kind of odd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Koasterking48 Posted July 31, 2013 Share Posted July 31, 2013 ^ I agree, 10pm is a very odd time to announce an attraction, unless they plan on having a special fireworks show Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TyRush Posted July 31, 2013 Share Posted July 31, 2013 Maybe that has a meaning! 10 inversions?! That would be the most in the US right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
