They have plenty of time and Gurnee will approve anything they put in.

Sounds awesome, but with the way the whole family thing watered down the theming of Batman...I think our imaginations are well past any possible thoughts.

ANYWAY. The Facebook announcement says "see the first clue", yet the puzzle doesn't reveal anything but the fact an announcement will be made September 1st. Hmm.

This is going to be an awesome week, I can't wait for the announcement.

I had a feeling today was the day they'd start revealing the puzzle

I wouldnt be suprised if Six Flags promoted X-Wing as the first in the World. Or maybe it will be the Worlds tallest, fastest, or longest Wingrider?

Let me clarify my post, you can post copies of the Facebook photo that is already on the site, but you cannot repost hacked or doctored images that prematurely announce the 2012 addition. Sorry for the confusion

Just a bit of warning...if you do not want to be blocked from SFGAM's facebook page, DO NOT post anything about what the ride will be or the rumors because I did that for when they did the puzzle thing for Riptide Bay last year on their FB page and I cannot comment or like anything on their page, only look at stuff. But I mean why would I want to comment or like anything? Besides I don't have FB anymore don't use it either. :lol:

They revealed the top right piece today... I can't tell what it says. It looks like a "2" and "our" or another word ending in "ur"

The top bold yellow numbers look like "12" assuming it's 2012. I'm wondering if they will remove more than one piece a day since there are a lot of pieces for a little over a week left.

^ It will be one piece a day just like last year. I doubt they want enough pieces showing to really give it away before September 1st.

The more I think about it, I don't even remember the one from last year. :lol: I guess it is best to do one a day anyways. I would hate to know like 4 days in advance what everything is, though some people probably wouldn't mind it.

I counted 49 pieces, so they are going to uncover 9 today through Aug. 31, then on September 1 uncover the last 40? Bummer. When they said 1 at a time, I was hoping that meant more than 1 a day. Guess we'd figure it out too fast otherwise.

If I remember last year correctly, they uncovered a few in a general area to show part of the picture. Then, the next clue...they covered the previous area up again and showed a different area. Obviously, they are only showing the corner areas or areas that really don't show anything of significance at this point.

In the top right corner, it looks like the end of "2012" and below it says "up"

X amount of feet straight up (Eurofighter lift)? The vertical lift was played up for the Georgia Eurofighter press release/announcement.

:shrugs:

Dare Devil Dive's mission begins as you're pulled straight up to the sky on a special vertical chain lift, then slowly roll to the top of the tower nearly 100-feet in the air. After an agonizing pause at the crest of the summit, you plummet downward at an angle that is beyond straight down — it actually angles inward at a blistering
52 mph. It is the country's first PAUSE element before the beyond vertical drop.
