Woodie Warrior

Yeah, I'm sorry. This complaining about a ride's first drop before any concept art, videos, or stats are released is the most ridiculous thing I've read on here in a long time. RMC knows what they are doing. I mean, look at Outlaw Run, Goliath, New Texas Giant, Iron Rattler, and Medusa. All of three of those that were open last year ranked in the top ten in the Mitch Hawker polls. I haven't heard that many reviews of Medusa yet, but of the ones I have read they all agree that Medusa is spectacular. Goliath has also gotten rave reviews (even though many agree that it is too short). Enthusiasts are really getting harder and harder to please. Sure, in some cases it makes sense, but the amount of people whining about an RMC coaster (before it's announced!) is ridiculous.

Honestly, while it is still a bit ridiculous that they're marketing these rides as coasters, it doesn't make much of a difference. 99% of the GP would see it and claim it's a coaster anyways, even if the park didn't advertise it as such.

I am wondering as to why there is a page titled "Classic Colossus". I'm guessing that it'll just be an article on the history of the original ride, but I'm wondering if they'll keep one side the original way. Sure, it'd be a stupid decision, but I wouldn't put it past SFMM. I am really looking forward to what RMC does with this massive structure. It should be spectacular, whatever they do with it.

And since you guys are getting an amazing new coaster in 2015, you don't need another one anytime soon, right?

So in other words, they're not getting jack squat. Is it really that big of a deal? I mean, the park's gotten two pretty awesome coasters in three years. And Kings Dominion did a 40 year anniversary celebration that was VERY well received, so this could be a great thing for the park.

I still don't get why everybody loves the name "Steel Storm". In my opinion it is a really lame and boring name. Wicked Cyclone sounds like a great name. But it's not like it really matters. The ride could be named "Poop-Scented Cyclone" and I wouldn't care. It's an RMC, it's gonna be good.

Or you could be positive for once and see it this way: At least three other Six Flags parks (Great Adventure, Over Georgia, and Discovery Kingdom) are rumored to be getting a horrible, low capacity carnival flat ride. Meanwhile, Six Flags St. Louis is replacing its rundown, low capacity dark ride with one that should be superior in every way. I think it's hard to think positive when your home park is SFSTL. YOUR GETTING A REVAMPED DARK RIDE AND NOT A CARNIVAL RIDE. Six Flags actually put THOUGHT into next year's addition for SFSTL, instead of another Boomerang. This time, SFSTL is getting a wise investment. If that isn't something to be positive about, I wonder if you actually WANT a Super Loop. Yes... and next year we should be positive when a few other Six Flags parks get a lowly pretzel stand and we at least get blessed with a nacho stand. Well, I mean when Thunderbird was announced the thread exploded with people saying that the park was doomed because another park was getting a better ride than us. But when another park is getting a far worse addition than ours people continue to complain.

Isn't the challenge that you have to do it within 24 hours?

Honestly I'd take Boomerang over a really crappy carnival ride (granted, I've only been on one Ring of Fire ride before and it had different restraints than most have).

And yep, they're gonna market it as a roller coaster. Not that surprising though.

I'm still confused as to how that forum got a hold of the project blueprints. Are we 100% sure they are the final plans?

So has SFSTL pretty much ignored the ice bucket challenge? I don't see any post on their Twitter or Facebook pages about it.

Honestly, that sounds like a really ugly-looking concept. I mean, the ride experience will be great no matter what. It's an RMC. I just think this is a way for the park to have an excuse for not spending the money to demolish one side. Hopefully this isn't really what they're doing. ^I agree. I like the name "Twisted Colossus".

Geeks picking on geeks. We're supposed to be safe here but the cool kids will still gang up on the outsider and put him in a fluffy, fluffy bunny filled with medicine and goo. I know your post isn't meant to be funny but that word filter made me laugh out loud.

Ugh I feel bad for any park who gets a Super Loop next year. They look amazing, but the ride experience is one of the worst flat rides in existence. The hang time with the horrible OTSRs is terrible.

Um....there's nothing in that post indicating that Towering Inferno is leaving anytime soon.

What type of crowds should I expect during weekends in September?

I love the park. It looks gorgeous so far, and I can't wait to see what is coming in the future!

Does anybody know the pricing for Fright Fest?

Yeah, my sister and I really enjoyed Firehawk on our visit, it's my least favorite flying coaster, though. I thought it was just as smooth as the B&M ones I've been on, but the restraints/vests were just really awkward.

I've gotten 34 new credits this year after visiting Cedar Point, Kings Island, Worlds of Fun, Mount Olympus, Kentucky Kingdom, and Timber Falls for the first time and returning to SFGAM to get my Goliath credit. I started the year with 44 and now I have 78 credits. I don't think I'll get any more this year.

If...you claim a 325 foot tall coaster looks "boring" If...when you say "woodie" you are referring to a wooden coaster and not a certain body part

I wish I had a Time Machine so that I could go forward in time to 8/28 and know what's in store for next year already.

Hearing all of this confusion on here stopped me from starting to play the game again. I might start playing again if there is a Halloween event, but not until then.
