I was at the park today and it was dead . I got lots of rides in - 37 without a flash pass. Had to leave early because of the storm moving in. I could've had a lot more. Wonder Woman is still fenced in, and there was no activity at all by it today. It looks almost complete. I was hoping to ride "her" when I was there . It looks like Crazanity at Magic Mountain in LA. I enjoy that ride a lot -- lots of airtime. Is there a reasonable guess for the opening? I'll be back in September for "Riding of the Bull." I'm hoping she's up then.

^^ I ate at that new BBQ place when I was there for Coastermania and the food was poor, and cold. The better new place is where the Midway Market was, over by Raptor. Great Italian food.

I was at a Magic Mountain during yesterday's earthquake. I was in the flash pass office and didn't feel a thing. Others at the park did. All the rides were closed for less than an hour and reopened very quickly. I was quite surprised! I immediately got on Crazanity, and it was fine. It seemed to be the first ride opened in the back of the park. Quick recovery Magic Mountain! The fireworks were great too...

Six Flags Over Texas in Arlington.

Yes, I've noticed that too. It's a bonus for the 1 ride only choices. It also saves time for any other rerides you want to do. I find it more of a positive than negative. I do hate the watches. I wish they could bring back the q-bots!

Today I spotted the first white and yellow track for WCR - West Coast Racers in the park. Yes, there are a few pieces of track along side the employee road into the park. These 3 pieces of yellow and white track are "hidden" behind the Green Lantern. It's hard to see, but I spotted it today riding Batman. I don't take pictures on rides (following the rules), or I would've posted some. Progress...

Lots of new supports have arrived for the ride in the staging area. They are preparing and pouring footers in the go cart area now. I can definitely see progress. I still can't figure the layout. This area seems so small.

Not sure why the multiple post -- sorry

I'm glad to report that finally I see some work being done on WCR - West Coast Racers. Lots of footers being dug and cement being poured. They're even doing work to the Apocalypse track too! That's a surprise. Even some ride parts are being delivered for WCR. Finally, something is happening...

I'll miss Volcano, but I won't miss the "Grunt Lantern." I rode it twice during year 1. That was 2 times too many. Good bye!

Just go to Dorney Park to ride it. It's as bad as ever...

The dining passes are good at all 6 Flags parks. I use them a lot.

Coasterstock tickets went on sale today! This is a great 2 day event...

^ I'm just concerned that the new watch version's font size will be difficult to read and interact with.

I was at the park last weekend, and was told Crazanity will be down for an extended period. That means maybe weeks. I saw the maintenance climbers leaving the ride, so it's something they checked up top. If you look closely, there's even a rope from the top (near the center of the ride) to the bottom. They didn't even have the lights on at night.

I was at the park yesterday. I've never seen it so busy. If I didn't have a platinum flash pass, I would've been gone early. The overflow lot was full at about 3 or so. They were parking cars to the right of the road the employees use to drive in. Crazy day... Both the membership website and flash pass sites are down this morning. I guess too much traffic!

^^ Those are new this year at the Mountain.

I was at the park today, and here's a ride update. Rides closed: Twisted Colossus - working on supports under the track. Lex Luthor - Maintenance in catch car riding up with water dummies in the seats. X2 - for me no biggy Viper - ditto see line above. I was really surprised how many rides still had 2 trains running. Exceptions to this: Ninja, Batman, Goldrusher.

^^ Right. Just a "little exaggeration" I think.

You are correct. I don't go for Fright Fest, just the rides...

I was at the park yesterday - Friday, and today. This evening the park was slammed. You couldn't even walk around, it was so packed. Even the line for Judge Roy Scream was long. I got my rides in this morning and early afternoon. I just had my season pass dinner & snack and headed out. Too much for me to deal with at this small park. I'm used to my home park Magic Mountain. As a 6 Flags stock holder, it made me happy. As a "Coasternut" not so much...

I got an answer online about the membership rewards site. I've been trying for the last 3 days. I was told it's down, and to try in 2 weeks...

I've tried several times today since I was at the park with no success. It keeps coming up with an error. I want to start getting my points.

Yes unfotunately. However they're allowing anyone who came today to come back another day for free. Nice of them to do that! That's a nice touch! C.P. is good for doing thoughtful things like that. I'll give them credit...

It's been my #1 woodie for years now! I loved it so much I even moved to Phoenix!
