Skull Island: Reign of Kong - General Discussion

[hishedale]

Does anyone know if we're supposed to tip the Kong transport drivers?

3 bananas.

 

[Galaxy Defender]

3 bananas.

Would that be considered a good tip is it just the minimum?

You take the car number, add the number of motion bases that aren't working, and then subtract by the number of people complaining when you leave the ride. Then you should get your number.

Or you could just tip the big guy. One or two blonde virgins would suffice.

I think you're confused. I believe that's Satan's tip.

Will he accept Rockettes?

Sounds complicated. Is there an app for this?

Rode Kong tonight after the rains. Got in line a bit before 8pm. Posted wait time was 45m and took 40m. Got Jinks again. By the time we got on the ride vehicle it was dark.

It did go outside and everything worked perfectly, including vehicle motions. Love this ride at night. There were a number of young girls in the vehicle that screamed at the least provocation. It made the ride much more fun.

So, what did you do to make those poor girls scream?

Not me. It was what those mean UC types built into the ride.

Plenty of other open projects on other threads, we're trying to see what the effect of this extra capacity is having on the rest of the park. This also helps us speculate what's going to happen, in terms of capacity, with F&F (similar ride system) and other future projects.

Yes. as you said, that's the reason we started doing the wait times, to see the effects. So far, it seems like the main constant, is that Kong has taken some of the line pressures off of Forbidden Journey. Kong effects on Spider Man have been minimal, if any. Hulk, being back up, has actually seemed to increase the Spider Man wait times a bit. Probably since there's now more people hanging in Marvel Island with the Big Guy back in town.

Got to ride Kong on Tuesday and have to say it was really great. The queue was interesting and kept our group occupied so the wait wasn't so bad. The witch room was very well done and the scare actors were cool (didn't tell my group). All ride effects worked well.

The opening of Kong and Hulk have had other effects. Lines at Seuss trolley and Doom were much shorter than I expected. The Rope drop line was much busier to the left. It used to always be busier to the right for Harry Potter.

Comic strip cafe is halfway in between Hulk and Kong. It was also much busier than I am used to see it.

I have heard rumors that demand for bananas and human sacrifices are up, but I have no independent verification of this.
