So what does that mean. The lake! It means the lake! But probably not. Aquatrax around and into the lake. Just like the Mega Millions says, "Hey, you never know."

Apocalypse is far from smooth. Just ask the people in the SFMM thread! (Personally, I don't think it's as bad as some people say, but it's definitely not a smooth coaster!) I don't think it's as smooth as butter, but I also dont find it rough. It'd somewhere in the middle, which I like.

So what does that mean.

What I don't like about the RMC coasters, is that they are very short. Since we all know they are not going to give El Toro any treatment, they would give us a ride that is exactly like Goliath at Six Flags Great America. Although Goliath is a great ride, it is one of the shortest rides ever. I felt like it was over in 20 seconds after waiting 2 hours. I rather have a nice GCI woodie. Apocalypse at Magic Mountain is still smooth after a couple years now, so Six Flags must be taking care of it.

I know we were not talking about this but I saw it on another site. When Great Adventure gets their new coaster, wether its 2016 or 2017, am I the only one that does not want an RMC?

I have a membership because I hate processing passes at Six Flags. To their credit they've really simplified the process but I love the membership and highly recommend it. The biometric system is great, as long as the worker knows how to work it. I had one guy who had no clue what to do.

What announcement? Where (specifically) did you here there will be an announcement? I guess he heard it from SFNE: I saw that video, but someone had also said it earlier in this discussion. Don't remember where they said it was from but they said many six flags parks were making announcements.

Any other ideas on what this announcement might bring us?

I know this is off topic but, screamscape says SFOG has confirmed running their batman backwards. Does this rule out Six Flags Great Adventure making the same announcement next month?

Maybe I'll give it a shot this season.

Whenever I go, I feel the line would take longer than walking. Thats why I've never been on it.

I wish they had a Giant Frisbee at Great Adventure. Rode the one at CP, one of the best flat rides I have been on.

They did try it in the early 2000's, but the type of event was much different compared to what is being done at the other Six Flags parks right now. According to what was documented, Winter Lights was basically a drive-through attraction with a few small shops, displays, and a kiddie train ride at the end. I was recently talking to a friend about the idea of them being able to do something like what SFOG is doing for Holiday in the Park. It kind of is possible to do as they do have quite a few attractions that could possibly run in low temperatures. I would bet the main part of Golden Kingdom, part of the Boardwalk, the back part of Frontier Adventures (Bizarro) would remain closed and the rest might be able to run. Don't know about Nitro though, but Black Beard, Skull Mountain, and Dark Knight would be decent coasters to run if this event could happen. I don't know. I just feel a holiday in the park works only at parks that have their full complement of rides running. Sure, it would be nice to go visit the park in late November-early December and ride Skull Mountain a couple of times, but like I said; being in the park and seeing all the main attractions closed would be kind of a bummer. But that's just my opinion. If Six Flags were not to keep some coasters open there would be no point in going, because they don't have a ton of flat rides. The addition of El Diablo is nice but still they don't have a ton of flats.

Where did you ever find that lol.

I think being open in the winter would be good so that they can spend the extra money they get on a ride.

It is almost Febuary, so we may be getting some news soon. Are they going to announce additions in the beginning, middle, or end of February. Backwards Batman would be nice, but is there any chance the state will let Zumanjaro and King Da Ka run together? It would be great for wait times.

You're right according to basically every other park as they all have minimum temps around the 40 degree mark but Great Adventure doesn't care about weather. That's what makes me so excited for the potential of a holiday in the park event... I could actually see them running some of their major coasters and even if they do have a temperature cutoff it would probably be really low. I could sort of see them closing off Plaza De Carnival and Golden Kingdom and then leaving the rest of the park open. This is all a pipe dream but if they did a Holiday in the Park event that would probably be the most likely scanario since I doubt they'd want to run El Toro since it has the potential to valley and there's no reason to open Golden Kingdom since it's less you have to decorate and so easy to close off. I feel the only coaster that would be able to run in the winter would be Nitro. It probably would not run as well as the summer, and would probably still be rough, but I can see that as a good coaster for the winter. If they were to keep some open.

That is like Herseypark, they keep their indoor dark ride open but their coasters closed. The cold weather is probably not good for coasters to operate.

Believe in Six Flags? Yeah.....no.

Is there a possibility?

Im really hoping for a real rollercoaster next year......

That's so annoying.

They still won't open this for opening day right?

That's a really good point.

In that picture they did not use Rolling Thunder's queue......could they be making a different queue? Then again, they changed the name and location so they could change their idea to make a new queue.
