Project 2013...just posted on Twitter and Facebook

Talk about anything that has to do with Six Flags Great America and Hurricane Harbor here.

Also on Monday, I noticed the cars from the Looney Tooter train and Waddaview were no longer being stored behind Condor. Makes you wonder if there's any truth to the Screamscape rumor.

^With all the hype they seem to be making I hope that it's not the only thing if it does turn out to be true. Do you think that the Camp Cartoon rides would be taken out completely then, Sprocket Rocket rethemed to Roadrunner and that be the new kids area expanded into the Iron Wolf location? If that happens, does anyone think Kidzopolis will stay?

^ I'd say right now, there is about a 99.9999% chance that the park is over-playing their hand majorly with the amount of hype. I expect August 30th to have a level of complaining rivaled only by Cedar Point's Dinosaurs Alive! announcement last year :lol:

Um what? Your post is completely unreadable. SFNE has gone to the town already and gotten approval for a 400 ft. Star Flyer. SFOG has a height limit so theres will be 200 ft.

What do you mean by "SF only bought two star flyers for 2013?"
Where did you find the information about this?


It's because he subscribes to Funtime magazine. lol

I think I was a little drastic about Sky Trek Tower, but maybe they are just repainting it, or putting new lighting on it. The clue that leads me to believe they are doing something to it is because Right corner of map looks different. I got used to the terrible paint scheme that Shapiro thought of, but I wish at least the cabin didn't remind me of a UFO - Paint it red at least. Or another thought could be a new entrance to the waterpark because that would change the right corner of the map also. If they did that though, they would probably charge for sure separate admission because the reason why they have people going through Southwest Territory beginning part is so they can get every last buck off of people (through Game Alley & a mini store) before they get to the waterpark. A way I see a separate gate hurting Six Flags is by people actually leaving with swimwear on which might mean people not buying a locker. People would probably change in a restaurant somewhere to save what - $15.

Just because theres something in the corner doesn't mean a rides going there. It looks more to me like a logo thats pointing to the center of the park. Look at the Great Adventure map for this year, how instead of putting the Sky Screamer logo over rides they put it to the side and then draw a line to it. It looks more like that to me.

Pretty sure that's not the case is if you go way back at look at Hurricane Harbor press releases it wasn't going to be included in the park ticket at first, and with the go karts in the way they had to put the entrance in SWT. Even if the entrance moved to carousel plaza, I'm sure it would still be free as you enter through the park. I can't imagine it going to a separate admission unless they build a completely separate entrance for it.

L.O.L. you are just HILARIOUS!!! :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

:roll:

Six Flags has already built five other “Star Flyer” rides at other locations around the country. It is now in the process of establishing two more, one in Agawam and another at a location [John] Winkler declined to identify for proprietary reasons.


http://www.masslive.com/news/index.ssf/ ... ts_to.html

Then by SFOG's countdown site using the image of SFStL's SkyScreamer, you can infer that they are getting the second Star Flyer that Winkler was referring too. Hence, SFGAm not getting a Skyscreamer in 2013. Plus, if I recall correctly, Gurnee has strict laws in place about when something can be presented to the board or something like that.

I'm thinking the kiddie area merger is true and possibly a few new shows for 2013. Definitely something to replace IW. Maybe a Disko?

It looks like a roller coaster.
1.) They point out in all directions like if they were talking about coaster hills.
2.) at 0:43 sec you can see what it looks like roller coaster layout lines going up and down.

I heard few weeks ago, what I till consider a rumor, is that SFMM and SFGAm are both getting LIM coasters (They might got great deal from Premier Rides). With our being themed to Superman's villain based of Man Of Steel. Would make sense with "effects". But again it's a rumor, I have heard.
Six Flags Ameirca as the number 1 park at SFI.... this is JOKE!

It almost looks like American Eagle's first drop and the drops that run along side it on the way back but not quite.

this makes me wonder...are we looking at the *fake* blueprint that clearly looks like eagle....are we looking at the hardhat he is wearing....(like he said above) or does this make us think outside the box and both of them have nothing to do with it and its just got something to do with the kids area being rethemed and adding the train??

I do not believe this is the ACTUAL blueprint for what we'd be getting next year, I just don't feel like they'd do that. Also, I think everyone is overlooking (what I think is a major point of the video) the LOCATION!Something new in Hometown, County Fair, Southwest, maybe behind them in the Pictorium... Maybe location has nothing to do with this video at all! I'm just putting this out there.
ALSO, does anyone know if you can see AE from the bridge they are standing on? hmmm

I know, I was just agreeing. And yes, it is still not enough information. Looking back at past years, I would honestly rather be left unsure and questioning of the new attraction (like I am now) rather than when we all knew exactly what the new attraction was going to be, due to the Facebook puzzle release idea.

The fake clues are pointing to something big, and I think that using things like the coaster looking blueprint and V2 hard hat will just make people more disappointed about 2013 if it isn't something big. I don't really care what it is at this point. I just want to know!

The v2 logo is just random. On the other side, look when they freeze and you can see a Superman UF logo and when the guy turns around and sees the cameraman, there is a Dark Knight Coaster on the back

honestly i do not think those are eagles BP's. but that doesnt mean were getting a coaster. I highly doubt we are. I bet the attraction were getting is somewhere else on the paper.

NOW if we were to get a new coaster that would roxors! 2 in 2 years? belive it when i see it

Newest clue.


At 26 seconds, the girl is pointing at Sky Trek Tower. There just has to be something about Sky Trek Tower because why would 3 head up look at Sky Trek Tower for a little bit, and on top of it, this guy in the video was there by the tower. This was a week or two ago. Another head up guy that day is always in those Six Flags Great America movies. I have to see another movie to see exactly what's his job, but if I had to guess, maybe a purchaser. The map, and the hat are really just props. They really want you to figure out what they are pointing at.

Something could be about the Grand Music Hall because they are pointing that way too. I really hope they redo or fix Pop Fusion. There is no reason why they can't have singers sing entire songs than just a lot of background music. I can just listen on the radio than to hear all that background music. I rather see less dancing, and more them actually sing entire songs instead of barely any words. You could maybe not like the Love at First Fright music, but they actually sing all the song rather than stupid background music, and they sing good.
