We would've been getting a B&M dive machine if the attendance in spring was higher, and I know this is off topic but while riding GARR i met someone who was the 10th person in the park and was on the Third train of AE when it opened. and I saw SSA's sign.

I really do not think that HH will be a separate admission. The park was all big on advertising the 'best free' waterpark in the nation. Who knows. If we don't get a decent flat, I will not get a season pass to six flags next year.

You don't know what you're talking about. You can't just call up B&M one day and say "Ya know what, we changed our minds about the Dive Machine"
These things take YEARS to go happen, and Six Flags probably has a good idea of whats going to happen in the park for the next three years.

Yeah I'm not going to say who told me this because I don't want to get them in trouble, but demonbulleagle was there with me when they said we won't be getting a B&M Dive Machine, demonbulleagle you can't say who told us because they'll get in trouble but you know who I'm talking about when we were over by TP yesterday.
I agree about Splash Battle. I'd be upset if this is what we truly got. I've seen pictures of other splash battles, and I just don't think it looks all that fantastic. The coaster would be nice, but I just don't think it's going to happen, which really sucks.
Couldn't they just have redone Splashwater Falls by pouring in new concrete to secure the pond and maybe giving it a new paint job? It was so nice having 4 water rides for people not interested in HH. That way it would actually not be as painful with something like Splash Battle cause you would have an actual water ride next to it.
Predictions:
2008: Dark Knight 2009: Splash Battle/Hurricane Harbor Addition 2010: New coaster/Not a dive machine/Iron Wolf revamped 2011: New water ride inside the park

Nothing could be done to SWF, it was a rusting, unreliable, piece of crap.
The boats were a very old style that caused constant issues with their fiberglass, not to mention the lift drive system was ancient and falling apart.
SWF got what it deserved, to be put out of its misery.
While I don't have a problem with the Splash Battle concept, I do see yet another new Six Flags attraction not running opening day. The ride may be ready to go, but it's a water ride and I foresee them opening on Memorial Day weekend or something, and then closing it after Labor Day.
As for the pirate flag, it'll probably be pirate themed; which would be more appropriate in Yankee Harbor than County Fair

I really like this here, I think we should get either a floorless or a multi-dimensional like X2. And i have been wanting them to do a major rehab on Iron Wolf for years.

All of you hold your pants on. Im sure were probaly not going to get a new coaster sence we just got this thing called Dark Knight. Be happy we got that.

If you look at it, if they really wanted to they either could put it in the SSA spot but that probally won't happen, ----but they could put it on shockwaves hill! make some new paths out that way, and maybe put a flat over there with it.-----disregard this i forgot there were some buildings in between the park and the hill and not just the road.
