SK4494 Posted May 14, 2019 Posted May 14, 2019 When was the last time a Six Flags park added a hyper coaster?
ride of steel Posted May 14, 2019 Posted May 14, 2019 I think it was the Goliath twins at La Rondé and over Georgia. Or Superman at Six Flags Mexico.
SbSteveZ Posted May 16, 2019 Posted May 16, 2019 ^ interesting. Also, though I’m assuming six flags doesn’t care about these, I’m pretty sure this is Ride of Steel’s 20th season. I love how they had a celebration for Mind Eraser and Viper in 2017, but nothing for their star attraction. Oh well! Happy 20th, RoS!
ride of steel Posted May 16, 2019 Posted May 16, 2019 Yeah I've been pissed at Six Flags all season, so far they've barley paid attention to it. I wouldn't be suprised if it got the new trains either.
coasterbill Posted May 16, 2019 Posted May 16, 2019 I'm so happy that reality is finally starting to set in.
ride of steel Posted May 16, 2019 Posted May 16, 2019 I mean they've paid attention to the other rides, Vipers station and electric are getting fixed and it got new lights, as well as Mind Eraser getting music. But I guess they see ride of steel as a liability because of it's downtime.
coasterbill Posted May 16, 2019 Posted May 16, 2019 I guess they see ride of steel as a liability because of it's downtime. What?
ride of steel Posted May 16, 2019 Posted May 16, 2019 They're not gonna draw attention to it because of the down time when they could be paying attention to the other working rides.
coasterbill Posted May 16, 2019 Posted May 16, 2019 What do you mean by "draw attention to it", what do you want them to do exactly? They don't have to do sh*t. Are you still wanting them to throw it a birthday party? WTF?
ride of steel Posted May 16, 2019 Posted May 16, 2019 At least put a sign up, Viper had a birthday party with cupcakes for God's sake, this is Ride Of Steel we're talking about.
coasterbill Posted May 16, 2019 Posted May 16, 2019 So you want them to buy the ride cupcakes... got it.
logrog04 Posted May 16, 2019 Posted May 16, 2019 So you want them to buy the ride cupcakes... got it. It’s great watching the reality of “oh... it’s Six Flags not Disney setting in”
ride of steel Posted May 16, 2019 Posted May 16, 2019 (edited) I want them to put a sign up I just said that. Like Viper had a party, they don't need to do that but at least do setting no matter how small. Edited May 16, 2019 by ride of steel
ride of steel Posted May 16, 2019 Posted May 16, 2019 No, you very well no what I mean and you're attempting to be funny. Both Mind Eraser and Viper got a sign and some changes to the signage.
coasterbill Posted May 16, 2019 Posted May 16, 2019 Six Flags doesn't care about this kind of stupid sh*t. The only time there should ever be a Mind Eraser party is if they announce that they're demolishing it for a picnic area.
ride of steel Posted May 16, 2019 Posted May 16, 2019 Six Flags does it at their other parks, and I'm pretty sure the park itself can make that call.
coasterbill Posted May 16, 2019 Posted May 16, 2019 Six Flags does it at their other parks This is true. Who could forget the party Great Adventure had for Nitro? Hookers and blow everywhere... Are you really annoyed by the lack of a sign and some Wal Mart cupcakes? Maybe if a coaster turns 50, 75 or 100 they'll throw up a sign and a press release and interview some insufferable ACEr for the press release (that's about as much effort as they're comfortable with) but this is dumb.
ride of steel Posted May 16, 2019 Posted May 16, 2019 Vipers cupcakes were custom, also I'm pretty sure Nitro had something mentioning it's 20 years or how ever it was.
coasterbill Posted May 16, 2019 Posted May 16, 2019 This is the most absurd complaint ever. You realize that, right?
ride of steel Posted May 16, 2019 Posted May 16, 2019 For them to at least give some celebration to such a revolutionary ride? I don't think so. Darien has been doing it for years, all the way back to RoS's 15th. So why stop now? It's the parks call not Six Flags.

If this kind of stuff bothers you this much then I’m super excited for the future of this park as a Six Flags Park and the years of entertainment that this thread will provide us.
ride of steel Posted May 16, 2019 Posted May 16, 2019 And? I know Six Flag's antics. I am not stupid, but Six Flags does stuff at every other park and Darien has been doing it for years. I'm just a little upset they forgot about their main attraction.
