CHANG WATCH: The Official Topic

Talk about anything that has to do with Six Flags Great America and Hurricane Harbor here.
Postby BP317 on July 3rd, 2010, 12:37 pm
If SFGADV can make a joke out of it I think enthusiasts should be able to take it and stop freaking out at eachother. 99% of the people that visit GADV don't care and don't visit the parks facebook page, the bigger of a deal people like you make of it the bigger of a joke it is.

Unless they took a stock photo with a P&S digital camera within the last couple years, that is not a stock photo. You can tell by the paint difference: the new paint is higher quality and a shade brighter.

More proof that its leaving. The third train is no where to be seen. Its done forever. You guys are just in denial, thats whats funny. Why do you even want a second stand-up. Face it people, its going to GAdv.

You guys have been spoiled to. You've gotten something every single year. Either its big or small, its still something. Stop being whiners. It makes you guys look bad. GASM is leaving. Its closing sometime this Summer. You can ask anyone who works the ride or some other people, they will tell you that its the last season.

ilovethevu: Now you do know that the person who runs the Facebook page sometimes isn't even in the park when it comments stuff. Its not the park. Your going to judge the park by a Facebook page? Weird.

Yes but again, there is no solid proof. You say we are spoiled, but Great Adventure has some of the best roller coasters out of any park. We have not gotten a even decent ride since 2003 when Superman was added and we lost a even greater ride much like GASM - Shockwave. So until you can actually prove which park Chang is going to, you need to base everything on rumor.

In my point of view I actually think they may still tear down GASM but no replace it with anything this year. That is a lot of space for what could be a even more major attraction, where at our park its limited in space and we cant fit a large major new attraction. Thats why I still believe Chang is still going to Great America.

Thank you shockwave. It seems like all the great adventure fans all say the same:
"ask a ride op or a janitory they all say gasm is gone. All of you sfgam people are ungrateful/spoiled/etc. Face it Chang is coming because my friends uncles girlfriend ex husbands child who sells churros at great adventure says were getting chang so haha".

Really people let's put two and two together:

Reasons it'll be at sfgam:
-Board meeting (WEATHER OR NOT IF IT WAS CANCELLED)
-Pieces found at the park
-Plans of where Chang would be
-Open area where Chang could fit

Reasons why it'll be at great adventure
-Internet trolls insisting that it'll be there
-BS rumors
-people believing everything as fact (gasms removal)

You're dumb. That the white train. The white train the past two years has been covered in ads. The person who runs the Facebook even says they didn't take it yesterday. Wow.


Bizarroboy-First off, learn to spell. Its whether. ANYWAYS. I'm not arguing with you right now because there is not point. We're on two different sides. Chang is going to GAdv. I'm not a fanboy. But those are the only plans for 2011 I know. I knew more but Weber messed those all up :/ Come late August we'll see. Can't wait for you fanboys to be proven wrong.

David-It wasn't even that rude anyways. Its the truth, plus the person didn't seem that upset. You want to complain, complain on that post.

^^I think it's about time to shut you down bucko. You can keep saying you're getting Chang, but it takes MONTHS of preparation, and it took 3 months to take Chang down, how about construction? In the winter and all? You're set for a Frightfest opening. We have an area ready and boarded off. You have a full-fledged coaster RUNNING.

GAdvs not my home park bucko :) It will take about two months to take GASM down, then put Chang up. Where's the problem bucko.


^^You wouldn't know the person and if I told you what would be the point lol. I've already said it, Chang is not coming to Great America.

I'll say it again. You're not getting Chang. You're not getting Chang. You're. Not. Getting. Chang. Get it through you're thick heads. Its not coming to GAm. And I know nothing about Chang. Because I live closer to SFNE? You are the dumbest kid in the world. Its not even funny.

Honestly, neither do you. No one on any of these sites have anything to do with Chang. Why? We're not in SFEC upper management.

David, please stop feeding the trolls.

acquaz10, give us positive proof Chang is headed to Jersey... a site plan... secret recording... TRACK... something you didn't hear from Screamscape or the LemonChill vendor. This being a SFGAm forum, obviously everyone will be biased towards it headed here, so nobody is going to take you seriously until you do...

Six Flags... make up your damn mind so we can move on... this whole Chang thing has just shown me how ridiculous some ACErs really are.

Great America may haven't had a new major coaster since 2003, but you all have recived better, a new waterpark! new rides every season! what more could you ask for? Kentucky Kingdom hasnt had a new major coaster since Ed Hart left in 97 or 98

Great Adventure may have recieved a couple of major coasters over the past couple of years, but look! Great Adventure could be losing a major coaster! all their doing is taking out a coaster and prolly putting another one in its place! Its just like when you all took out the Shockwave and replaced it with Superman!

this is so stupid! Chang could go anywhere! and its not going anywhere until the court case is settle! so it could even go back to Kentuck Kingdom! if it do, which I hope it does, everyone could stop with the bitc*ing and everything will return to the way everything used to be before this Chang rumor started in August of 2009!

All this topic is about is you hopes and dreams.

I'm not a troll and I'm not an ACEr. If I do show you my proof I get in trouble and my source gets in trouble and you guys are still pissed off. Its not a supervisor or anyone related to the park in that way. Well he is, since its his homepark but thats it. I can't say much more.

Here's the difference. Chang at GAM started from ScreamScape.com. Chang at GAdv started from fans. BIG difference.

True, but employees come on here and read these rumors. If they happen to repeat them, then people find truth to it when really it's just the same rumor coming from an authoritative figure

First of all you cannot be right in the brain and compare Kentucky Kingdom's failure to Six Flags Great America. Second of all, Chang is not I repeat NOT going back to KK. There is no case. The board never went to the courts for Chang to come back. Looks more like Six Flags paid some fee for their intended build of Bonzai Beach and that is it. Ed already presented his plans. No Chang I repeat no Chang on there. A new water park for KK is. Get over it. :roll:

Your right it is a stock photo, but it was still taken after the ride was re-painted, so we can agree that this picture is post re-paint/pre-ads. I completely forgot SF had their website re-done with newer photo's.

acquaz10 wrote:You're dumb.

Ok so I may be "dumb" but i've been making my living in this industry since before the first time you clicked onto any coaster site and I think after years of studying the business i'm entitled to say what I think if you can say what you think. Nobody here is ruling out the possibility of Chang going to Great Adventure and your "i'm right your wrong" attitude is completely unnecessary.

Whats up with the attitude? I was just making a point!

Here in louisville we get more facts about whats going on. The KFEC has filed a lawsuit aggainst Six Flags about the removal of Chang being a fake, get it through your head! Everyone knows bonzai beach was a fake to get Chang out of the park before they closed the park! And in the lawsuit also filed by the KFEC, they want the ride BACK! or a FEE! for the ride.

Ed Hart has not said a thing about Chang. Thats why you have seen nonthing about the ride in his plans. The only time he's been in the news was when he was annouce the re-new owner of the park.

So you don't know were the ride is going rite now! SIx Flags may won't tear down the Scream Machine until their is a ruling or settlement in the Chang case!

Wasn't that case dropped during bankruptcy court? If not, they should drop it. They have no proof that Bonzai Beach was faked. They had ads up for it, and they even had 2010 season brochures.
