B&MIntaminGCI Posted September 2, 2018 Share Posted September 2, 2018 No one was looking to argue or debate. I was just simply confused and had a lapse of memory that the Dining Memberships change price depending on what Membership level you sign up for. I apologize for the confusion and misunderstanding.

Rayj Posted September 3, 2018 Share Posted September 3, 2018 What if.....superman and green lantern get rethemed to something else, Nitro became Superman, and bizarro gets rethemed. Something needs to happen because these DC characters are all over the place at this park lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coneyislandchris Posted September 4, 2018 Share Posted September 4, 2018 I thought I was going to go with a membership this year, but after running the numbers it just didn't seem worth it. After looking at the cost of what I wanted (parking and entry to all amusement parks, deluxe dining plan and unlimited drinks) it was $173.13 for the Gold Season Pass, this includes about $20 in taxes and processing fees). I'll be honest, this year my family and I haven't been visiting Six Flags parks as frequently as we have in the past, and I'm not even sure if we've gotten the value out of our 2018 dining passes. We're all still grandfathered in on the Gold Combo memberships at a lower price than the cheapest current offer, so I think we're going to let the dining passes expire at the end of this season, and then just continue to hang onto Gold Combo until they unceremoniously retire it at some point in the future (or cut the included benefits to a point where we'd need to pick up Gold Plus). I can't see myself shelling out the $340 or so for four deluxe dining passes for us if we only go a handful of times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason Maier Posted September 4, 2018 Share Posted September 4, 2018 Thinking about going up on Columbus Day (my off days at my new job are Monday & Tuesday). How nuts are crowds there on Columbus Day? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Genx24 Posted September 4, 2018 Share Posted September 4, 2018 Historically, Columbus Day is usually manageable, crowd wise. Of course, your mileage may vary depending on weather. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anonymouscactus Posted September 6, 2018 Share Posted September 6, 2018 As others have said in the past, the crowds at this park make no sense, lol. Exhibit A: Labor Day weekend Saturday: beautiful weather, holiday weekend, no significant lines that I saw. Exhibit B: Labor Day weekend Sunday: same weather, holiday weekend, 10x the crowds (based on what I read, anyways) Typically the holiday Monday itself at ANY other park will yield better than the weekend, but I swear you never know with this park.

michaellynn4 Posted September 10, 2018 Share Posted September 10, 2018 (edited) From Screamscape today: Park News - (9/10/18) I'm not sure how true this is, but an odd rumor came in over the weekend claiming that El Diablo could leave at the end of the 2018 season. Anyone else heard this, or is it complete nonsense? Personally I’m not buying it just yet... My initial feeling was... ...but then I thought about it a little bit more and to be honest, when factoring in a couple more things that we know, the claim may not be that far off. We know that they walled off the Splashwater Oasis complex in the Golden Kingdom. Also, at Riding of the Bulls on Saturday, park president John Winkler told those attending that the 2020 attraction will be “tall", "made of steel”, and has been in the works for a while. This heavily hints towards a coaster, which would fit nicely into the potential area freed up by removing Oasis and Diablo. I still lean towards "bulls**t" about El Diablo leaving, but who knows.

CoasterAuditor Posted September 10, 2018 Share Posted September 10, 2018 ^Coming to Six Flags Magic Mountain in 2020................surprisingly Magic Mountain is now the only Six Flags park to not have a Super Loop or have one coming next year. Even Great Escape has a Super Loop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canobie Coaster Posted September 10, 2018 Share Posted September 10, 2018 Maybe they realized giving an entirely new ride to La Ronde wasn't worth it so they're getting another hand me down? Then again this is Screamscape so everything is taken with a grain of salt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suspence1127 Posted September 10, 2018 Share Posted September 10, 2018 Maybe they realized giving an entirely new ride to La Ronde wasn't worth it so they're getting another hand me down? Then again this is Screamscape so everything is taken with a grain of salt. I know your kidding, but I read a rumor that this is exactly whats happening Now obviously there's no way to be sure if its true, (although apparently this rumor also originates from Riding of the Bull, in which one of the staff members told a couple of people it would be leaving) but I honestly won't be surprised if this happens, and then the "big project" for 2020's ride entrance is located where El Diablo is currently.

Highridin Posted September 10, 2018 Share Posted September 10, 2018 Wondering if it's leaving, or just being moved somewhere else in the park. Of course, if it's moving at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason Maier Posted September 10, 2018 Share Posted September 10, 2018 Let's operate under the assumption that it's true that El Diablo goes away . . . And take the clues (tall & made of steel) . . . maybe a B&M Wing Coaster? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ed Farmer Posted September 10, 2018 Share Posted September 10, 2018 They are going to remove the old super loop to replace it with the worlds tallest super loop I hope it's this so much, because it's so Six Flags (and also because I'd love to see the marketing approach, although I can prob guess).

JG-77 Posted September 13, 2018 Share Posted September 13, 2018 ^I’m pretty sure all this skyline deal stuff is 100% ungrounded speculation based on how Harley Quinn @SFDK opened later than initially announced. Also the El diablo stuff as far as I understand is based on a single Screamscape post, which as we know has questionable reliability/accuracy, especially in this case as the guy who wrote that post is quite unsure themselves.
