They are the attractions that used to be in the spots where Transformers: The Ride at USF and USH are now. Kings Island and Six Flags America.

False. The person below me has a Cedar Fair park as a home park.

The Off-Season Survival Thread
VF15 replied to ernierocker's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Well, I've pretty much adapted to the off-season by now, but May still needs to get here, pronto. Fortunately, I'm probably going to Nickelodeon Universe in January or February, which should hold me off until May . -

Granted, but none of them are in the U.S. I wish more people would play Careful What You Wish For. -
Valleyfair (VF) Discussion Thread

I don't think it will significantly slow down construction. It just might not go as fast as it has over the past few weeks. Sorry about the confusion. -
Valleyfair (VF) Discussion Thread

After last night's snow, I guess it might unfortunately slow down the slide construction a bit, though the area does look a lot nicer with the snow than with dirt. -

Granted, but you can only go on one ride because the lines are ridiculously long. I wish it wasn't snowing right now. -

Granted, but not for 100 years. I wish I could have gone to Magic Mountain when I was in SoCal in 2013. -

6.5/10 - Low credit count, but I guess it could be worse. Looks nice though.

Weirdest Things The 'GP' Have Said
VF15 replied to maliboomer's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Was rewatching some episodes of Insane Coaster Wars, and in the segment about Gatekeeper, the narrator said "This might just be the most intense coaster ever" . I haven't ridden Gatekeeper yet, but I highly doubt it's the most intense coaster ever. -

Nice trip report of Nickelodeon Universe. I think NU a great park for being inside a mall. It's lots of fun, and I'm excited to see what they'll do in the future. Looking forward to reading your Valleyfair trip report. -
What's Your Coaster Philosophy?
VF15 replied to Coaster Cow's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
For me, roller coasters and parks are about thrills and having fun. Similar to what cal1br3etto said on the first page, I'm a coaster enthusiast first and a park enthusiast second. I can enjoy the charm and theming of a park, but roller coasters are my main draw. I enjoy a variety of coasters, but my favorites are always the intense ones that push the limit. When I go on a ride/to a park, I always try to find the good in it, even if it's a coaster/park that's generally considered bad by most enthusiasts. For example, on rough coasters, usually there are still a few aspects of that ride that I enjoyed, and even though most people consider Six Flags parks to be too YOLO-ish, I find myself liking Six Flags' atmosphere to an extent. I am more critical of a ride than your average park-goer, but I try to not take it seriously to the point that it gets in the way of having fun, the main point of this hobby. I think Wes put it best:
