You lost me. Is that supposed to be "want"?
Forgive me, that should have said "...DON'T know what is..."
Maybe the current staff members at Great America aren't enthusiasts like us. If there were, and they thought it was big enough to leak, we may have already known what was coming by now.
oh trust me, there's Enthusiasts there. Just few and far between. I was one of 'em.

They don't tell them squat, and if they do tell them anything, it's only to higher-ups know. But as you know, it's an ethics thing, and they're in management for a reason, because they have good ethics.
(I won't say how high when I refer "Higher-ups")

I missed out on a lot in the past couple days oh my lol. Anyways, I think this is all intriguing and makes me scratch my head. Personally, I'm not a fan for any of those 3 rides, so I just see land opening up. And I'm for that. I do think though that SFGAm didn't properly address the current situation of the rides.
- East River Crawler moving to Orbit's spot - Endeavor in East River Crawler's spot - Giant Discovery in Mardi Gras - Batman's entrance re-routed to Mardi Gras and the area themed to Gotham City
I've heard about all of those except for Batman's queue being rerouted. I've heard some pink flags/markers have been spotted while riding the train. They were spotted in the Picnic Grove. I've read it on Facebook in quite a few different threads there. I also have a friend that I know personally said that they saw the pink flags/markers. If that means anything.
That's what comes to mind when I heard about it. I've also heard that it could be water pipes but I don't know. I mean, we did see those same flags in X Flight and Justice League's spot before being revealed. I personally think we will get a good size coaster. However, some of the rumors I've heard is that flat rides will be placed in there and will be a new DC themed area.
Sister was at the park doing recon. These pink markers are so close to railroads tracks you can almost reach them. They can found as far away as the railroad crosswalk at the edge of the picnic grove.

Interesting. I had no idea a coaster was even a possibility for 2017 until this point.
Dang, that's almost the entirety of Picnic Grove. If you combine the space of ERC, RC, JWR, SF Outfitters, Batman Excess queue, AND Picnic Grove, you have a huge piece of land. Like, long sprawling B&M big. I seriously doubt we'd get a major ride like that right after JL, but hey, Blackpool is already starting construction on 2018, so maybe we're starting early too?
The past 2 days have been seriously crazy. Six Flags' Upper Management must be having a wonderful time seeing us go crazy.

This doesn't make sense, since Justice League just opened across the park near Southwest Territory. But I guess Mardi Gras could connect Superman and Batman together, so I guess it might work if they completely re-theme Mardi Gras, which would mean getting rid of Big Easy Balloons and King Chaos as well.

I seriously doubt they would remove the entire Picnic Grove. But they would be able to move the entrance from where it currently is to the area where Logger's Run entrance is. They might also remove some of the Northern half of the picnic grove, since Six Flag's usually doesn't host huge picnics anymore.
If they did, it would make one interesting ride. I've been thinking we are going to get a dive coaster. I know Hank has said that they pretty close with B&M. Or something similar to that. If not a dive coaster, possibly a full circuit launch but not by B&M.
