I didn't care for SWF at all as I cant stand being wet all day, but the following nearby parks do still have Spillwater attractions that are much closer than SFMM...
SFStL SFKK (closed for the time being) PKI Cedar Point Noah's Ark @ Wisconsin Dells Michigan's Adventure Kennywood Valleyfair! and probably a few more I'm forgetting.
Favorite Wood Coasters: The Voyage, Ravine Flyer II, Thunderhead, Balder Favorite Steel: Voltron Nevera, Steel Vengeance, Expedition GeForce, Olympia Looping Parks visited: 232, Coasters Ridden: Steel: 894, Wood: 179, Total: 1073

True, I did it for that, but if I knew it was another lame wild mouse, I wouldn't have even bothered. It took me like 3 seasons to ride ragin' cajun.
TDK was a huge waste. It has cool themeing, but I honestly thought it would be something like Flight of Fear. I then realized I was stupid, because the building was way too small, and there was no long launch track area. But right when I got into the entrance, I literally said "*", when I saw the wild mouse cars after standing in line for 2 hours.
Now that I think about it, a LIM Launched enclosed ride would've been really cool to have.

Hahaha.... I'm just joking.
Haha to begin, good drawing I thought that was part of the map, and freaked out for a second.
Unfortunately, I am pretty sure Six Flags won't be touching a 400 foot launch coaster until they make the 8 trillion dollars they lost from Kingda Ka and keeping it up. Those coasters are so hard to maintain.
Also, I don't think it would fit in that area haha, those things are huge.
^Just out of curiousity, if you guys think Dark Knight in-a-box is ugly, can you imagine a 400 ft. version?!?! It would look like Gary Indiana on that side of the park!
So any more update on these pirate signs in the area?!?! I haven't been to the park since 4th of July.

No body said anything about a 400ft. tall coaster.
^You said it would be neat to have an enclosed LIM launch coaster. Right above it, there was a picture of Kingda Ka drawn into the SFGAm park map. If I'm not mistaken, Tony thought that you were inferring that you would like something like that indoors. Even if it's not what you meant, it could be easily confused. So, yes, someone did say something about a 400 ft. coaster.

This is the post that I was talking about. SORRY for the confusion.

Correct as usual King Friday!
Oh, and since this topic is a personal opinion one, i'd personally like to see Six Flags snag the Flying Super Saturator from Carowinds and bring that baby over here!!!! Those rides are easily the best water rides around!
