  1. SFV is competing with this parks as they are the only parks near this park that offer competition. Also, should I make the last 2 wooden pieces(the very left and right of the ship) up so It gives the ship some depth. Anyway, thanks for the suggestions as I will work on that and thanks for the constructive criticism.Any more comments?
  2. Wow... Thats pretty cool and a good storyline on top of it. Nice work!
  3. ^ Sorry about that... I should have read more carefully.
  4. Two quick questions. I know this sounds a bit cheap, but does admission to WCB include parking? I believe it did last year. Also, what do we need to bring to get in, do I just need ID and I can check off my (and my guests) names or do I need a confirmation email or something like that. Anyway, cant wait... only twenty days left.
  5. A new ride is upon us and it has begun testing. Captain Feathersword's Adventure is based off of the wiggles friend, Captain Feathersword. It will be unique to this park as no other six flags park has this kind of wiggles world, the main reason being becasue the park is in competition with Kings Dominion and even Busch Gardens. The ride boasts a new concept of combining the splash battle, a popular water type attraction with a water rollercoaster. The project will be built by Mack rides and is sure to soak guests and maybe even a few innocent bystanders. I only have a few teaser pictures, however the park has given me permission to upload them to this forum. A major construction update will happen in the next few days. SCR40.BMP Several Water Effects and other surprises wait at the island. SCR37.BMP The pirate ship and jolly roger flag.(there is black canvas behind the diamond... but its the best I can do with no cs. SCR42.BMP Head chopper underneath the gang plank.
  6. That was an amazing update. I laughed out loud at the one ******* rhino picture... so funny.
  7. I get your point, but the lift is not 2300 feet long. The footprint is massive, however, like I said, the ride is good, just not real.
  8. It's a cool attempt, but nothing too special. That kind of sounds harsh though, so I will explain. The coaster itself is too huge to be considered realistic as it is more than a mile and a half long, which is way to large for the average park. That is fine if you are working on a fantasy park, but a realistic park is not going to make a coaster like this. The second issue is the coaster is nothing special, especially if its a prototype coaster. Cables are nothing new, and although they are native to B&M coasters they are far from a prototype. The layout is very B&Mish, which is fine for a smaller model, but B&M would not create something like this ever. The coaster is also not landscaped very well as there are random patches of trees and things like that, which is unrealistic. As I said, the attempt is cool, but the ride itself is nothing special, just a giant B&M coaster.
  9. ^Awesome, thanks. I willl try to do that.
  10. The park has been working quite hard to get everything up and running in the next few months. They made the somewhat unfortunate announcement that we would only see these two sections (Wiggles World and Tropica) for opening season. However, they said that by season 2 a new area would be opened, and it is rumored that a new coaster will be announced somewhat near opening. GCI has been in the park quite a bit recently, and has built constrictor. Those last few pictures were scale models(fooled you didnt I) except the fly by element has varied significantly. It has been confirmed that trenches are being dug underneath the parts of the ride that touch the ground as the wood will not hold for long. Landscaping crews are at the park now, and although I could get no new pictures I can promise some progress in the next update. NEW ADDITIONS!!!!!!! The park has recently released a few teaser pictures of their "Shoot the chutes" style of water ride. The ride will be immersively themed, and when asked why it is supposedly to compete with shoot the rapids. Although Cedar Point is quite far from here it makes some sense, and Six Flags has said they are working on theming more attractions. Shapiro way is currently under way, and will be prevelant in the next few updates. SCR31.BMP Better? SCR28.BMP Un named Jungle themed shoot the chute. I have heard it is to be called Jungle Plunge, but no confirmation. SCR29.BMP Another flat added to Tropica. The vine twister will twist guests veichles as they twist and twirl on this carnival classic. SCR27.BMP OMG... SHAPIRO WAY IS COMING! I love theme parks with a main street shopping center.
  11. YAY!!! I just signed up with 2 guests. Quick question though, I paid my mom and used her paypal, so is there some confirmation email, or am I good as of now. Either way, cant wait to meet y'all.
  12. Congratulation on the new game... Sounds cool and batman is an awesome and very popular character right now.
  13. Awesome! thanks man. Shapiro way(main street) coming in next update as well as the opening of tropica and wiggles world(both to receive a few more attractions before opening. Including a major attraction in each area. Here is a hint though, what is a non coaster ride that six flags and knotts both built by intamin? Here's another hint, both rides are "thrill rides."
  14. ^ Awesome. Its gonna take a little while until I am able to join but I am really excited for this. I love the art alsao with the coaster interacting with the letters. I am looking forward until the 15th just for an updated list of benefits and all that good stuff. Congratulation Robb and Elissa and everyone on the staff, with the largest theme park site in the world this should be a rather succesful project.
  15. ^ Lol. You should have Kristen ask. If anything will make them reconsider it will be her, of course, they probably wont reconsider, but I have come to find that if you dont personally know a toddler or very young child well it is very hard to say no to them, at least not without feeling bad.
  16. This is scary... Ill have my money tomorrow, so I'm really hoping it does not sell out before then. I can only drive up to SFMM(Its about a 2 to 2.5 hour drive) if I bring a friend, and he's giving me money tomorrow. Anyway, good news about S&S, I wont be there on that day, but thats still really cool to hear.
  17. Thanks for the advice everyone, I took Belgianguy's advice and started over. The buildings are generally inspired by something Six Flags made, but are still a bit over the top as to add my own twist. SCR19.BMP Constrictor is slightly inspired by Terminator Salvation at Six Flags Magic Mountain. The drop is similar as well as the dead mans turn and flyby. SCR21.BMP Constrictor's station. SCR23.BMP Here is an overview of Tropico. A unique area to Six Flags Virginia. The top spin is called Tuki. SCR24.BMP The other building in the area is called Tropical Tastes resturant. It is a sit down resturant offering interesting variations on tropical flavors. SCR26.BMP Big Red Car is the first attraction in Wiggles World. Is is created by Vekoma and was inspoired by the old Schwarzkopv spiral coasters. It is also inspired by the popular TV show The Wiggles! SCR25.BMP This is to show expansion. The dirt path(it will not stay like that for long) is used to represent wiggles world's entrance, which will be down Shapiro Way(the main street. Shapiro way will be a main focus in the next update)) while Tropico will be expanded in the future on the other side of constrictor.
  18. I started from scratch. The coaster still needs to be customly supported with the in game supports, so I'm not giving a picture of the complete ride. The colors are a bit of a stretch, but the ride is green, like a boa constrictor, hence the name Constrictor. What do you think? Any better? I will probably update quickly(within the day or for sure tomorrow) so keep reading this thread for more. Also, its not completely done, I need to add some building to the exit. SCR18.BMP Constrictor. Any better guys?
  19. Fair enough. I'll start over. I'll delete the pictures when I get new screens, but still use this thread.
  20. I know this was just started yesterday but no comments? Sorry to bump this, but I want som general feedback and can change whatever based on what you guys want to see.
  21. This is Six Flags Virginia. I moved the game to another computer so I email it from my laptop to this computer, and I can now post screens. So far all thats in progress is the DC action zone. That being said there is a lot more coming, and a lot of work has been in the zone. It includes a megalight, a Schwarkopz jet star(I think) and an intamin drop tower like drop zone. It also includes a gift shop. Penguins Blizzard River, a comic store, and a resturant will be the next additions. PICTURES!!! SCR11.BMP IF I GO CRAZY YEAH WILL YOU STILL CALL ME SUPERMAN RIDE OF STEEL?(still an awesome song) SCR15.BMP The themed line. What should I add to the open spots as I dont think the tent roof fits. Also the superstore is near the exit. SCR6.BMP Airgasm SCR12.BMP Cat Womens Whip. SCR14.BMP This is weird. I thought I took a better pucture of Luther. Oh well, there the station in the background. SCR17.BMP Area so far. Landscaping to be added shortly.
  22. ^ What an awesome concept!
  23. This TR=Win. Atem, you are another TPR caption master and you, printersdevil, the bebes, and chuck should right a massive trip report. It would literally be the best TR in the history of the world.
