This is quite possibly one of the dumbest posts that I have ever read. Thank you for the laugh.

Decoding Episode II: Rivertown 2017 and the Falling Trees
Engineering Coasters replied to jcgoble3's topic in Kings Island
Looked like there is a block brake before the shed and there almost certainly will be one after the shed but before the station. -

Found it. I guess the truck was a clue after all! (http://mystictimbers.visitkingsisland.com/nature-rises/ride-renderings) -

Lot's of good information about the ride in this paragraph from the official website. (http://mystictimbers.visitkingsisland.com/explore-the-woods/press-release) -

Just felt like mentioning that this ride made my 54 year old dad want to revisit Kings Island. My dad hasn't been to the park since 2010. -

Actually surprised that I was somewhat close on my guess. Anyways the ride looks like what would happen if The Beast and The Racer had a baby. AKA it probably will be a very fun ride especially at night. Still confused like the rest of you on what Greg meant by there being two major announcements for 2017. Also, does this mean we have to start a decoding episode 2.5 topic for #WhatsInTheShed? lol -

I'm officially guessing Mystery Forest. Based off every single clue that I have read in this topic. -

So I think I am incredibly close to the name/theme after reading this. That was not in fact an axe in the truck. -

Best name that I could come up with: Barreling Beaver Beavers are nocturnal, chop down trees, and make dams in rivers. Barreling because the ride has a couple barrel rolls in it. -

Keep in mind guys that no other CF park has teased anything to the scale of Kings Island this summer. My money is on this attraction being the "Major Thrill Ride" addition in the chain. If that is the case, this could easily be in the range of a $20 million capital investment. $20.5 million was the cost to build Son of Beast for reference. Me personally, I believe it to be an RMC. Barrel rolls and "If you build it, they will come" were part of the teasers. This is, to me, not being advertised as anything average or small. I'm not discrediting GCI for not being fun, but a lot of you act as though the GP do not really know about RMC, but attendance is probably up in those parks because of how easy it is market an upside down wooden coaster. At this point in time, there is enough safety and capacity data for CF to warrant investing in one, so why not now? Like most of us are saying though, anything is fair game. So buckle your seat belts and put your lap bars down. This announcement is about to be just as thrilling as the ride being announced! -

I think we would have received more feline related clues if the name was Splintercat. The website's hint alludes to more of a forest vs lumberjack dichotomy at least in my opinion. -

I'm pumped!! A little sad I'm in Chicago this summer until August 13th. I was at the Banshee announcement, and I remember how incredibly enjoyable that event was. Waited 2 hours before the actual announcement to get a front row spot lol. Hopefully I can catch a live broadcast online for this one. I'm sure someone will have it. -

Somewhat relevant to the discussion: I just rode my first RMC yesterday when I visited Six Flags Great America and rode Goliath twice. That thing is absolutely insane and is making me all the more excited to see what Greg and Don announce for next year! -

Did someone call for an engineer? Or are you possibly referring to the train's engineer. (emphasis on train)
