Marketing for Six Flags
CoasterFanatic replied to Spookbaby's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
If it helps, the "Mr. Six" campaign was created by the Doner Agency. They have many large clients including Circuit City, COX, Bf Goodrich, Blockbuster and more. -
Six Flags Darien Lake
CoasterFanatic replied to kewlsodapop's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I have only been there once, so I am hardly an expert on the subject, but this was my take: We arrived at opening Rode - Superman 2x (Top Tier Steel Hyper) - Viper 2x (better than your average arrow looper) - SLC (better than your average SLC) - Predator (big pile of suck) - Log Jammer (dirty water) - Boomerang (it's a boomerang) - Superman 2x Left in after about 3hrs in the park We then drove to Waldameer (Credit Whoring in mind) and ended up staying there twice as long. -

If you buy a $10,000 Rock-O-Plane you better believe that it won't be able to run "out-of-the-box". It will need a lot of maintenance. You will have to have custom pieces fabricated because they haven't sold parts for them in years. Once you start putting "Custom" parts on it, the insurance company is gonna be all over you. Now you got a $50-60,000 Rock-O-Plane and your insurance premiums have already doubled. // understands why there isn't too many Knoebels and Kennywoods around

Carowinds Question?
CoasterFanatic replied to Erik Johnson's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I will second that. Carowinds is a very enjoyable park. I have not been there since they "stole" the flyers, but I have rode them at PKI and they are without a doubt in the top 3 in the world. As Jonathan said, the B&M is one of the best Inverts out there. -

G-Force Poll
CoasterFanatic replied to vertgforces's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I voted for "ack! G-forces suck!", because the choice comes closest to the G-Forces I prefer .... none. That's right zero-g! My favorite zero-g moment is probably Jack Rabbit's (Kennywood) double dip. Don't tell me it is "Negative G's" or I shall beat you with my old physics text book. http://www.freelancetraveller.com/features/science/gravity.html -
