Kings Island new Coaster 2014

So what are the chances that the name of the ride will have the word "Beast" in it?

It's probably going to be Banshee.

Could someone seriously explain why it's so conclusively a B&M invert at this point? I really don't understand, and I'd like to.

No. But it's an invert.

Is it just me, but do these "New Coaster Prediction" topics get a lot of chatter produced?

Do you mean is it you who produces chatter? Then yes. ;-)

It might not even be the biggest, longest, or "est" coaster of its kind. Just a plain ol' inverted coaster would do just fine.

If this new ride does end up being a B&M Invert, I would be interested to see what progress/inovations they have made to the design. The last new B&M invert that was constructed was Patriot at WOF in 2006. Does anyone have an idea as to the developments B&M has made with this design? What new concepts would you like to see in this new ride?

Great.

Could someone explain to me why it's so conclusively not an inverted coaster?

lol

Dude, what do you want? I can't explain anything. It's an invert. I'm not looking at a picture and making that assumption, if that's what you're asking.

I'm not going to get any more specific than that.

That wasn't the last inverted built. They just built one that opened last year.

More than 10, less than a thousand. Give or take a couple hundred.

Yeah but it wasn't built in 'Merika so it doesn't count.

Since patriot, Phaethon and OzIris have been built. so, not really that many. i guess only 7 in the last 10 years and only 1 in the last 5

OzIris seems like a great ride. I also wouldn't mind having something Black Mamba-ish close by.

Am I the only one who saw "Black Mamba" and thought of Kobe Bryant? Might be....it's NBA playoff season and I'm geeked.

When I see Black Mamba I think of Kill Bill.

Sorry, kpjb. Accidentally hit delete on my phone. That's why your post is showing an edit.

Yeah, "accidental."

I'm going to put in a suggestion for code....whenever Gonch is admin'ing, all edits and deletes come with an "Are you sure?" confirmation button.

Those buttons are there by default for me. I tried to scroll my screen and it turned into a delete.

At least I can bring them back now.
