Official Entry #1

 

Here's my first entry. I really don't like it that much so I'm going to post another one later.

(Official Entry #1) Originally, X2 was to have a nuclear blast effect, but due to radiological and cost concerns (mostly cost), the idea was scrapped.

Official Entry #1

 

After a long discussion about whether or not riders should have their limbs torn off and then eaten alive by the aliens, they eventually came to the difficult decision of going with a theme that did not require as much work for the clean-up crew. It is reported that the aliens will be sent as gifts wrapped in beautiful packaging to the executives of exxon.

Those things don't bite do they?

^ Nope, those are aliens. (You know, from the movie "Alien".)

 

Here's my second submission.

Angry fire-breathing Mr. Six effect. It was scrapped because it gave Daniel Snyder nightmares. (Not to mention it incinerated the trains.)

In development of X2, engineers asked theme park enthusiasts, "What 2 things can only make a roller coaster ride better?" The replies were "no OTSR's" and "a shooting aparatus."

 

However, after lengthy testing by S&S using an office chair and a Nintendo Wii, they decided that this concept was not feasible and settled for fire and fog.

 

It's too bad, too, because the bonus games offered while waiting in the brakerun would have been well worth the wait.

Six flags trying to make the park a more family friendly ride by combining there most extreme coaster with a ride that they knew the whole family loved.

The decision to make X2 a indoor ride, complete with animatronics and music was not met well by some enthusiasts
