Opening Day: I would vote Twisted Colossus Second Year of Operation: I would vote Wicked Cyclone I really see problems with the Twisted Colossus operations.

So we now have a Blam Mystery Box. Anyone see any reason NOT to use the majority of your Blam for the boxes? I'm getting some great stuff so far.

^And yet on our visit Legend was running the best it has pretty much ever run and way better than Voyage! It's really just a personal opinion at this point if you like the RMC products better than Voyage or not. I would LOVE to see that ride topper tracked.

^Yeah, there were pictures of it being welded and put together somewhere in Poland right now. Should be on the ship in a couple of weeks for sea trials. Hopefully it goes better than the Oasis Blimp did during sea trials! Broke off and was found a few weeks later!

Maybe in a bit of irony this will move to SFGAm for 2016!

Yeah, especially those 'Wicked' people from Boston! Seriously, doesn't everyone outside of Massachusetts make fun of those people for using that word too much and now they have a coaster named it. Awesome! But back to SFGAd...Yeah if this is at least the first step in opening that path up from El Toro to Ka/Zumanjaro and putting more rides/attractions/infrastructure along there in the future it's okay.

So I rode Escape From Gringotts today for the first time. I was really blown away by the technology of it all. It is absolutely the most advanced, technological dark ride with a bit of roller coaster stuff mixed in I've ever been on. That being said, I couldn't understand anything that was happening (story, plot, dialogue) so that kind of made me feel very disconnected with it. I prefer Mummy, Indiana Jones, and of course Journey to the Center of the Earth. But it certainly takes the Spiderman, Harry Potter, and Transformers dark rides to a new level and I hope to see more of these systems built. I'm thinking a Sharknado version of this ride would be amazing.

Hey at least it beats all of the parks getting a Windseeker!??!

I apologize, you are TOTALLY right! (Jersey is America's armpit!)

^I feel like that's something we will make Jake eat on our next visit!

^You will get a bag of crap when you register for ClubTPR but also we have contests throughout the year on the site, facebook, and twitter so just keep an eye out.

I think all the Jersey SFGAd fanboys should fight the SFMM fanboys as obviously SFMM continues to be (for some reason) the 'roller coaster favorite' of the chain. SFGAd is a MUCH better all around park and you should still feel really proud of what you have but I can understand being upset over this announcement.

Has anyone heard what the height restriction for this will be? I'm curious because KT helped some of the S&S Engineers see how smaller kids fit in the restraints when we rode the prototype! She loved the ride!

The porno mags and calculators are really insane to get. Just when I feel I'm making progress and I get two in a day, I don't get anything for like another 36 hours!

Best part of the announcement...WowBands!!!! Can't wait to see more RFID tech!

Yeah I agree with you guys. It's nothing compared to the Comic Con update on Family Guy. I can't figure out what order to do things. Which castle should I be upgrading? I have tasks to upgrade all of them right now?

^Well, the photo posted clearly states: WEEKDAYS September 1 - 30 So yes, it starts in September.

Looks great, can't wait to see it next year myself!

^I don't keep up on their crazy height restriction branding. Is there anything between 42" and 48"?

^How many times did you ride your favorite Angry Birds simulator?

Maybe they're testing for a lower height requirement? White Lightning is 46" with those trains compared to 48" Lightning Racer. The GCI at Efteling offers the middle cars at a lower height restriction.

I prefer Zumanjaro to Kingda Ka. It also has a lower height requirement so more people can ride it. The day we were there the crews were doing their best with a bad situation of only running one at a time. They were both really hustling and doing a great job.

^Yeah, but Universal Singapore isn't on a mountain and the road is a multi-lane highway in a highly developed country. I'm not just talking about the latest bus accidents but over the last 25 years. Just google it, there are tons of articles on how the safety barriers aren't appropriate for the road and that the runaway ramps are in bad locations.

^Awesome, thanks!

Perhaps we should pair up and create 'invader buddies' kind of like we did Egg Buddies? Then we can make sure we don't tap and use our nerds to the best of their abilities?
