  1. I wouldn't even mind paying an up charge for X2, but that should include unlimited rides. Period.
  2. Kind of off topic, but it's bugging me, so I have to say something about it here lol. I am still trying to understand why the Flash Pass system is different from one park to the next. SFGAdv allows unlimited rides on all their coasters, yet at SFMM you have to pay extra and they limit use. The day I used FP at SFGAdv Toro was on one train operation yet we could still book unlimited times and ride twice. So I don't really think it should be different for X2. Or for a coaster like TC. I just think that it should be a streamlined and consistent experience for the price across the chain.
  3. So I'm going on Saturday. It'll be my first time back since I moved away. We were going to go Sunday but with the forecast calling for rain all day we decided that Saturday would be the better option. Very possibly doing the fastlane so we can get to everything including paying the extra for X2. It'll be my partners first time ever and I really want him to be able to experience all the coasters.
  4. I agree with the above. Let's just hope that they are just taking baby steps into better integration for their fast pass system.
  5. I never took a side, just because I personally didn't see a point, but I never felt that it was necessary to crucify people for having hope to see a 2017 opening. It always amazes me how hard headed people can be. We are all here with a common interest that's fun to be able to share. TPR is also built on the grounds of fun and they make it a point to include all. I see a lot of people losing sight on why we are all here. #whereisthelove
  6. I was so excited to learn about an upgrade to the FP system at DL and DCA. I'm all on board to pay the extra. I just wish it would be up by the time I go in two weeks lol. Though I don't think that crowds on the 24th will be very bad at all anyways.
  7. I like the answer you already got. I am going to second what was said about going immediately to X2. I know people don't like to do this... but if you are going during the summer and you actually want to make it on to every ride, the only way that will be possible is with a flash pass. Also, get there a good hour or so before opening for a good parking spot. At the end of the day, you're not going to want to walk forever back to your car through several lots or wait for a crowded tram lol. So if you can manage to get into the first lot, you can just walk back and leave a lot quicker than if you are several lots deep. It's really exhausting after walking around from open to close lol.
  8. I've been playing for about a week now. No complaints at all. Really impressed with it! It's legit. No battery issues for me at all either. Granted I'm playing on an iPhone 7+ so my battery typically does really well.
  9. I think that goes for people in general. Hey, we've all been in traffic and seen how minds can function (not function). I worked a stadium venue for years -- I've seen it all: fights, tackle arrests, bodily fluids, and even some tumbles off the escalators. Kids are prone to being immature or perceiving no consequences simply because they're not mature. With adults, on the other hand, I find it harder to come up with excuses. I think common sense is still fairly common, but the exceptions truly stand out. I do have to agree with you. I see lack of common sense at work every day. You're right. It doesn't matter the age.
  10. I was just having a conversation the other day about kids making stupid decisions. They don't think things through and consider the worst thing that could happen. This entire situation could have been avoided. The family better not try to sue. It doesn't make the pain go away. Just once I'd like to see someone realize there were stupid choices made, an accident happened, and it's not anyone's fault but the person who chose to do something idiotic. I'm sorry the family has to go through this. Losing someone is never easy. This whole thing could have easily been avoided.
  11. Hahaha. James Davis needs to have several seats and go back to school.
  12. This looks really amazing. I have the hardest time thinking up dark rides and how to tell a story. This is really great! I really love seeing what everyone is creating with PC. Great work!
  13. I really hate InvadR as a name for a coaster. Sure there are worse... but this just bugs me lol.
  14. I hadn't had a chance to comment on the new bus service yet that was being offered and I have to agree with what I'm seeing that this is a positive service. It seems like the people that are complaining are majority locals that are mad because they feel that they deserve the privelage. Services like this are a fantastic way for people that are visiting for their annual trip, or their first trip, or their trip they get once every 5 years. People that are fortunate enough to visit all the time don't necessarily NEED services like this... but in my opinion... if they want to utilize them... then shut up and do it lol. That's the bottom line. But this is an awesome option and I will absolutely be purchasing this next time. What a great way to save time and avoid additional lines
  15. Thank you for posting that! Very excited. I think it is great that with each update we are seeing some great additions. Whether in the background or the introduction of new items, they are doing a fantastic job.
  16. Going off of what has been said by a couple people regarding the new RMC MS and capacity... I always noticed how much space there was between the station and transfer area. It would be nice if they made separate load and unload areas so that when it really came time to board, it was a quicker process. Like MF for example. Or when C first opened. I have no clue why they ever got rid of the unload area. Having an unload section and a load section seems to make operations smoother and faster and more streamlined. You see it a lot at Disney and they have fantastic operations.
  17. I never claimed to be an expert, but the people who are experts (the maintenance teams at the park) wouldn't do something that would cause damage to the rides that they spent millions of dollars on. You're implying that running the coasters in the cold is damaging the rides enough that it's rendered them unreliable months later in mild weather. Even though you never stated that as fact (which is an improvement over what a lot of enthusiasts do), to even suggest it seriously is a little nuts. Do you really think any park would do that? You missed the most important part of that quote lol. "I'm 16." Explains the part where he got offended and defensive lol
  18. When I was younger we got to do Flashback at SFMM. It was always closed down when we were there and on this particular trip we did 5 or 6 rides on it back to back because there weren't any other people in line. The following trip out it had permanently closed. That was the only time I ever saw it open and got a ride on it.
  19. For me, it was X2 at SFMM. It was only a short period of time I worked there but it was literally the best summer of my life. I had a really great crew. We had amazing dispatch times considering it takes several minutes typically to dispatch. We really hustled though and got trains out as quickly as we could. It kills me when I go now and never see anyone even trying to make a decent dispatch time. On busy days when I would come back from break, I would always find two people at the back of the line and quietly escort them to the front. I'd just tell them, "I want you to enjoy the rest of your day. This is 3 hours you'll have back to spend on other attractions in the park." People loved this. I was recognized every time they updated the recognition board for employees. Just made me feel really good. To this day it has been my favorite job and that coaster holds a special place for me.
  20. That just seems so overly complicated. There are so many moving parts lol
