DAE remember when Cedar Fair acquired the Paramount parks and everyone complained about it? "Oh my god, they renamed Top Gun to Flight Deck" "Oh my god, they renamed Drop Zone to Drop Tower" And gee, it sure would suck to have 1 season pass for every major park outside of FL/CA that's not owned by Busch or Hershend. But here's the great news for everyone complaining about something that hasn't happened yet and might not; You don't have to go! Believe it or not, nobody is forcing you to visit any parks. Think Six Flags will ruin Cedar Point? Fine, don't go. One less person in line in front of me for whatever they potentially rename Millennium Force to. Okay, I'll take my contrarian hat off now

Sure is, thanks for the support! Raven can't be that bad now. Sure it's been over 10 years since I last rode it, but it was one of the best coasters I've been on. This is a hilarious reply coming from someone behind a site called 'Your Favorite Coaster Sucks' To be fair (to be faiiiiiiir)…most do. Also, big ups Chicago. I’m in the 312 also Dang you must’ve lucked out, all of those were absolutely violent and nasty when I rode them. Well I guess I’m really due to a return to Holiday World now, and not just for the T-Bird credit. Disappointing if they’ve really let it get that bad, because it was soooooooo good when I first rode it and subsequently in 06 and 08. Third car front seat. Hips back lean forward. After a few beers that tactic it's awesome. Cap it off with night rides on Screamin Eagle and a dark AF ride on B:TR. If you come back I'll even buy you a delicious Bud Light! Doesn’t seem worth the try for the beer

^I mean they did predict X-Flight at SFGAm by about 10 years It would be cool if they kept some of those old arrow support towers and did an RMC iron horse layout using those. Don't know if it's actually possible, but would be cool.

^Ugh, I'll be taking good advantage of the diamond elite perks than haha. But boy that sure is a disappointment, I was looking forward to riding both of them on one trip.

Might have a chance to stop here after SFOT this weekend. How long should I reasonably expect to spend here to get all the credits? Are there any other rides worth checking out? Thanks guys!

^Most excellent. I'll be there Saturday and Sunday, so hopefully enough time to get all the credits and maybe a few rides on New Texas Giant. Thanks for the info.

^It heard about Vortex and it's lashing out!

^Good, SFStL really pissed me off with they way they don't so I wasn't sure which parks in the chain had them or not. Has Pandemonium resumed operating at this point?

Raven can't be that bad now. Sure it's been over 10 years since I last rode it, but it was one of the best coasters I've been on. Unless it got Villain/Mean Streak/Boss/Ghostrider/Cyclone rough I don't see how it could possibly be that bad.

^I mean it's a 30+ year old Intamin bobsled, I'm not expecting much lol Question: Does SFOT have loose article boxes on their loading platforms?

It's kind of funny how after they announce they're closing Vortex, people come out of the woodwork to talk about how it was their favorite ride. Here's an actual shot of Vortex being designed

Has Pandemonium been running since it vallied?

^cool, but figured I was due for a 10 year check in

I last went to WoF in 2009...anything worth going back for next year?

I meant from the racing aspect, I feel like that could be the most exciting portion if they did some of that reverse banking. But I doubt RMC will be touching American Eagle.

Powderkeg: A Blast in the Wilderness It was a lot of fun.

I would be kind of curious how RMC would handle that giant helix at the far end, but I still don't see that happening.

^Judging by how it rides, the cost is high and the budget is nil

So am I correct in assuming we have collectively broadened the definition of a "giga?"

^I rode Villain at Geauga Lake, Mean Streak at CP, Son of Beast, the Boss and Ghostrider (not after maintenance) so if Vibora is worse than those I'll be confused but impressed.

Columbus Day hasn’t been dead in years. No shows or anything going on so people that are there are there for the rides. Last time I went on Columbus Day it was terrible. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Wow well good for them, maybe turning a profit. When I worked Columbus day it was so dead staff got cut due to lack of guests.

Six Flags St. Louis 10/4 Frontier City 10/5 Six Flags Over Texas 10/5 & 10/6

Six Flags just keeps getting stranger with their smoking area placements.

^^Those are excellent pics! Sounds like you might have gone into the maze during a breaking period, or maybe their staffing sucks for FF. Thanks for the TR.
