lapseofreason Posted September 22, 2006 Share Posted September 22, 2006 ^ X opened in 2001, the same year as Deja Vu, and is therefore 5 years old. Oops, I confused it with Scream!. -Amanda "Sorry" V. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tmcdllr Posted September 23, 2006 Share Posted September 23, 2006 ^ X opened in 2002 and is therefore 4 years old. Deja Vu opened in 2001, Scream opened in 2003. Fixed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iZak Posted September 25, 2006 Share Posted September 25, 2006 Just curious Izak, how do you not have a "total posts" line? Thanks for that info though, it would have been cool to experience a ride with usch intense drops in the dark. I seriously have no idea...I see it. It says I have 67 posts... About the Intamin Space Diver in storage. Back in the day when I was running my website I was able to confirm (with some decent sources) that the ride does exist, and if I recall is currently somewhere in Europe. However please remember that it's been many years since I learned this information and can't reveal my sources since to be honest, I don't remember them. Interesting...Maybe my contact thought I was talking about in the US (since I did technically phrase my question that way)...I'll have to ask again in a few weeks...

TatsuXtreme Posted September 25, 2006 Share Posted September 25, 2006 i went yesterday and you will be happy to know that the wall that has been blocking the lower half of orient express for so long has been removed! the only thing blocking it off now is caution tape. both of the cars are about half way up the hill! and as for freefall. one of the cars is in the station! there is no longer any cars stuck up at the top! the colossus backwards trains are at colossus and ready to be loaded. I really didn't see that much on X, but from viper, it looks like its ready to run again too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr.Six Posted September 25, 2006 Share Posted September 25, 2006 I've heard from quite a few people at Magic that Freefall is set to reopen in as early as next week. As for X, I heard it was once again dropped from budget and they're aiming for the middle of October. Something that I should also bring up is that X doesn't really have a crew anymore. About five of them have quit since X has been down. I bring this up in hopes that X doesn't turn into "Team Tatsu". A bunch of new people who don't really know how to work together. Oh well...we'll see. _six Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iZak Posted September 25, 2006 Share Posted September 25, 2006 Well, considering they only put the best people in the park up at X, I don't think we'll have the Tatsu effect... However, when that ride opened, they were supposed to be the best too (since only the "best" open new rides) and we see how well that went...

TatsuXtreme Posted September 25, 2006 Share Posted September 25, 2006 yeah, i was thinking they're probably gonna reopen freefall, orient express, and X with fright fest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

colossus Posted October 4, 2006 Share Posted October 4, 2006 From what i know. Freefall & orient express both should open this weekend for fright fest and circus wheel should re-open the week after that. X is going to be closed all fright fest and should re-open sometime in december due refurbishing trains and broken lift. colossus will be running both sides this weekend one forward one backwards. Thats all i know ~Chris-O Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lapseofreason Posted October 8, 2006 Share Posted October 8, 2006 Are they for sure selling the park? No. Back on topic: Did Freefall open, or what? I wanted to go today but ended up sleeping in, and now I find out my husband won't go anymore because the last time we were there someone walked across the top of his car in the parking lot. Crud... I need to find some friends. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr.Six Posted October 8, 2006 Share Posted October 8, 2006 ^ What I've been told is that OE and Freefall are both done with their refurbishments. Now its just a matter of training. _Six Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kraxleRIDAH Posted October 14, 2006 Share Posted October 14, 2006 How's this for an update... TODAY (FRI OCT 13) Orient Express was testing. I confirmed this...visually. Circus Wheel was testing. Saw it with my own eyes as well. Colossus RACED. No, not just operated both tracks, but RACED. I creamed my plaid shorts at this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Golfie Posted October 14, 2006 Share Posted October 14, 2006 WOW! SFMM could really use some of SFGAm's Superman staff - they get very quick dispatches and don't spend time lollying around. They get their job done and get it done quickly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
