Why is Six Flags so lazy with construction
Intaman replied to KoasterDan's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
X-Flight was ready before Memorial Day. Additionally, Iron Rattler construction is apparently moving along. I also think the Apocalypse (formerly Iron Wolf) opening was on-schedule. Given projected costs/budget, SF would certainly have created a schedule with construction, etc. -
Cedar Point (CP) Discussion Thread
Intaman replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Years later, they would relocate it to SFStL and rename it Boomerang. -
Why all the screaming, Robb?
Intaman replied to douggw's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Maybe the original poster would enjoy the station and ride experience at Mt. Olympus. I have often confused say- the Hades station for a library. Of course, we can all heed our poster's advice. Maybe we can whisper obscenities, etc. Psss...*$&% Twistty!!!! %#&%&%@@ Loopdeeloop! -

I suppose Cheetah Hunt at BGT. -
If Magnum XL-2000 had an inversion......

And was bought and relocated to Mt. Olympus... -
What GCI coaster has the most airtime?
Intaman replied to Montuman99's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I have really enjoyed the airtime on Thunderhead. -
I can tolerate most screaming, however, I once had a girl behind me scream at such a high-pitch throughout the ride that she both ruined the experience and gave me a sore ear. I felt like I just left a rock concert. Of course, if you think screaming is bad, how about a guy who passes some gas right before the ride starts. I remember this happened years ago to me while on the Hay Baler at SFGA. The man ahead let one go and we spun around right into a very delightful smell. We renamed Hay-Baler, "Fart-Baler".

B&M vs Intamin
Intaman replied to alpengeistdude321's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
As my username suggests, I am an Intamin fan. However, I also enjoy many B&M coasters. -
TPR 2013 Tours Announced!
Intaman replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Awesome! I am already impatient for next summer. This will be a fantastic time (and my first TPR trip). -
Horrible Park Operations
Intaman replied to pgathriller's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I would now like to share a moment of silence with the Mt. Olympus ride-ops. -
I typically make an effort to ride park trains. It is a way for me to relax/rest during an afternoon of coasters. That said, I really enjoy the train at Dollywood, especially at dusk.

What was your first B&M Coaster?
Intaman replied to thrillseeker4552's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I rode Batman: The Ride when it opened at Six Flags Great America. Some 20 years later, I continue to enjoy the Prince-performed soundtrack while waiting to ride. -
I am intrigued by the addition of an inversion. However, I am more excited by the possibility of some TLC i.e. retracking and new trains. Now, I will need to find some time for a three and a half-hour trip to the Dells. Of course, I enjoy the Dells for its quirkiness, nostaligia, and timelessness, which basically means that I will also need to get my mini-golf game ready.

Six Flags Themed Areas: Does anyone care?
Intaman replied to texcoaster's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I typically get that Metropolis-feel when flying over grass and near a giant parking lot on Superman at Six Flags Great America. Is that the Daily Planet building? No, it's only a mini-van. That said, I think theming can definitely enhance the ride experience. -
2013- What are you most excited for?
Intaman replied to Chroniq's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I am most excited for Outlaw Run. -

2012-- What was your highlight?
Intaman replied to Chroniq's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I rode Sky Rush, pain-free, essentially alone (three of us in the front row and the rest, an empty train), at night. It was a really incredible experience.
