The Official SFGAm Rumor Thread
onyxhotel08 - There was never even plans to bring back the ride rotation program... I don't know what you are talking about...
^I think he was referring to the rumors of it coming back last year.
RRP is a great idea. Especially in the case of parks having rides which people for one reason or another do not ride that much (Scream!). It is MUCH cheaper than ordering new rides and waiting a couple years. Even though for a ride like Deja Vu it cost about 3 million to move it and set it up in Idaho, I still think you CAN do it cheap and give ride smuch needed new lives at parks where they can be more appreciated. I am sure everyone will go nuts over a new Superman sign....
 Great addition and I am sure any possible repair jobs at parks done will also be easy to market. 13 Years with SFGAm World!
The latest buzz from Six Flags Great America is that the Yankee Clipper flume ride is closed and may remain closed all season. When a reader asked someone at the park about it, they were told it was likely going to be removed to install a new modern era flume ride with higher capacity in 2012. More when we find out…

2012 doesn't see right... Maybe 2011. And anyways, why in hell does our park keep getting water expansion?! Put it into the damn water park! I'd rather see something better go there!
Too late for 2011. They would need to take down Clipper very soon. How far along do water rides like flumes need to be ordered? And yes it is stupid considering Clipper is still popular when actually open and we have now 2 dead spots in very crowded areas. 1 at the front and 1 in County Fair.

Many parks have loads of empty spaces. This management is smart enough to realize that removing something doesn't mean it needs to be replaced.
Space Shuttle America will be in 1-2 years tops. Splash Water Falls might just get evened out, concrete poured in, etc. and do some beautiful landscaping there to enjoy while on GAR.

SSA should have been used until this season. When It would be removed for the expansion. Why not?
It closed because nobody was going on it. In 2007 lines were very tiny.

Who cares? At least that area wouldn't be dead!
It was expensive to run too.
Top 5: 1) El Toro. 2) Maverick. 3) Millenium Force. 4) Diamondback. 5) X2.

I never understood how SSA fit in where it was put. I mean theme wise. Buccaneer Battle should have gone there...

That area was originally the Space Port area.
This is all very bad right now cause plans were in place for a while on 2011 additions. Chang was halted here in May/June. Now what? I do not buy the Hurricane Habor expansion is the only option as it has only been 4 years since Tornado was installed. Maybe they will move another ride here from a park that does not need it. Flat rides are also always needed. We have a good collection but SWF and SSA areas could use one.

Do you think Scream! would fit in the SSA spot originaly planned for chang? I love Bizarro at SFGADV, and i think it would fit great here.

Scream! and Chang were similar in a lot of ways. Chang was about 154 feet tall and 4,155 feet long. Scream! is 3,985 feet long and 150 feet tall.

Scream also had nearly all of the same inversions.
1. Loop 2. Dive Loop 3. Double Corkscrew Scream! is an awesome coaster!
Magic Mountain loves Scream! so much that...
 They leave the train in pieces in the heat outside... I NEEDS SOME SCREAM! !
And it is not a stand up! Scream for SFGAM 2011!!! We'd give it more love and not make it another parking lot ride. We could pull another Superman and make it really nice. 13 Years with SFGAm World!
If anyone from Six Flags is listening:
PLEASE
PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Scream is a flop at SFMM. It would be a massive hit here. 13 Years with SFGAm World!
No one is listening.
Anyone have twitter? Make it a trending topic!
13 Years with SFGAm World!
I do, but it'll never happen. You need millions to make it happen. I'll start it though.
