Your logo sucks

Ok, I get that you're young, very young, and you are extremely passionate about your home park. That's awesome. I remember when I was like that. Now please take my advice as someone who in your position a long time ago. No matter how passionate or rude you post on a message board, it won't change the direction or the frequency of expenditures at your park. Regarding what I quoted. Being well traveled I will tell you that KD is right there with VF in terms of needing help. The park is extremely disjunct right now. They are trying to fix it but it's not something they can fix in one season or overnight. MIA, as mentioned above, is doing quite well on attendance. It's actually one of the more profitable parks in the chain. WOF has been receiving pretty good sized additions here lately. I honestly feel that if they hadn't had to basically completely redo Viking Voyager's plumbing and most of the park's infrastructure this past this off season there would have been another good addition. Plumbing and rewiring is not cheap. Not to mention that they are completely retracting Timber Wolf which was a last minute decision. CGA was caught in limbo with the uncertainty of Levi Field but redid the remaining parts of the old kiddie area and incorporated them into Planet Snoopy while adding rides. They're focusing on a better park experience and you'll see that with the conversion of Vortex to a floor less. Not cheap. Long story short, don't get so worked up and enjoy this hobby otherwise you won't last very long See you on the midway

I agree that really the only thing that could help the area is a coaster plaza. I guess they could move the Timber Wolf entrance to back by Thunderhawk and then have the exit empty out back there as well. Though I'm not sure that would help and it might hurt ridership of the Wolf too

He is visiting all of the parks, don't wet yourself it has nothing to do with an announcement

I still think I305 would have better with a Millennium Force style 2nd hill curve instead of what is there.

Noticed that boat props have appeared next to th new Blood on the Bayou haunt building.

Hellshire Farm.

Same here. I find Volcano (post launch) to be very relaxing, which is a plus in my book.

Fury doesn't have much airtime but what it does have is violent. It really takes you by surprise (not talking about initial drop)

It doesn't get much more enjoyable than PowderKeg

Never greyed out on it. So you've never been on it? No I rode it 3 times pre-modifications and then 2 times the year after modifications and then 2 times this year where I was trying different things to minimize the sensation of which nothing worked. I'll give it a ride if I'm at the park (I don't visit very often considering how far away the park is from me) but I don't deny that I'm hesitant every time

Greying out is not "fun" for me. I think that's why I am always hesitant to ride I-305. I'd much rather ride Volcano

Unless you are planning on going to the waterpark or riding water rides you'll probably have minimal waits if any at all.

ThunderHawk was down almost all day last Sunday. I'll be honest I didn't look at MAMBA's wheels last Sunday. As far as to this summer being warmer than normal, not really. It's been wetter.

Wouldn't an Infinty Coaster be a better fit for MiA? I really don't care either way, just like making the backseat moderator upset

Like I said it was completely rebuilt. As much money as the park sunk into it fixing it, it'll probably be around for at least a few more seasons. The problems all stemmed from how it was originally used as a water ride. The water got into places it shouldn't have and well, the lack of being water tight in some places really made a mess of things. That whole dead end needs to be redone. There's really nothing to draw guests down that way.

ThunderHawk. Even though they completely rebuilt it, it seems like that HUSS topspin is down more than up. With regards to rollercoasters (which is what I think you were wanting) all of ours are pretty reliable. The only one that can be finicky is Spinning Dragons, but it's not enough to really warrant a label of being prone to breaking down

I guess D.H. Morgan hypers are having a bad year so far, with Wild Thing getting stuck at the lift a few times and having a weird shakiness on the front car, Steel Force also got stuck a couple of weeks a go on the lift, and now this. Actually this is the first real issue MAMBA has had this year. It has been running pretty reliable this season. Of course it hasn't been warm enough to melt wheels like it usually does during summer (hence the sprinklers before the station to cool them down)

Then make normal guests have to walk all the way through WoF to get to the water park...? And season pass holders the opposite? Season Passes could park in either. But yes general admission would be required to walk through the park. It won't kill them and it would solve parking issues for normal season but especially HAUNT

Sunday also happened to be "bring a friend day", where tickets are $15 if one member in a group has a pass. Oceans of fun has ample room to expand, and depending on where their property line boundary is, they could even build all the way around the eastern side of the lake they have. One thing is for sure though, if the water park gets more attractions, the parking situation needs to be addressed. They added an entire new parking lot literally 2 years ago, and parking for the water park yesterday was a disaster. I've seen people park on the grass before, but. It was crazy. I think ANOTHER issue is that the park is a tad understaffed this year, because there were multiple rides at worlds of fun not open, and there weren't any people directing OoF traffic. Just. It was insane yesterday, and with good reason. It's not fair to say the theme park never sees crowds though, as more often than not the water park is the dead one. This week is the first KC has had with heat indexes over 100, and that definitely showed yesterday. Each side has their days where it has more people, so one day of 100 degree weather isn't a fair judgement for how the entire park runs every year. Honestly, the water park and the theme park both have their good days. But 105 degrees isn't the most ideal weather for the gp when it comes to coaster riding, especially with a free water park a few hundred feet away. Nevertheless, the coasters weren't completely dead, and most of them were running 2 trains by around 1 pm. On a Sunday. A SUNDAY The park wasn't ready for yesterday, I wasn't either! Both sides of the park need expansion, but that doesn't happen quickly so we have to just wait and see what corporate is going to do Actually it's been the norm since the two parks were combined into one admission. You might not have noticed it this year due to the wet weather but it really is the norm for OOF to be more crowds and then there is a mass exodus back into WOF. To fix the parking situation - make the OOF lot Season Pass only.

If I had to guess, it's because the foamer posts bury any actual news that might have been posted in the thread.

Got confirmation from the GM himself at Coaster Mayhem last year. Something along the lines of "We will be focusing on the WOF side in 2016 and 2017." Sure, things can change, but it's not like we are just making stuff up. Unless you got it from Bender, himself (regional manager that has his office at WOF) take it with a grain of sand

That's because it was the "Share A Coke" promotion tour and not "new machines"
