Minor Updates, Rumors, and Happenings

New coke stands has its sign now

[Goku1910]

Triple Play was running today (5/24).

It was running on the 22nd when I went. So was it just running or loading guests?

Is Great America Idol back?

The new Coke stand in HTS is really nice. It has 2 side windows just for Bottle refills. So much better.

[Dmrbug]

Not sure if this was mentioned. I noticed in County Fair Food Court next to the pizza place there is now a water bottle water filling stations to easily fill up any water bottles. Has anyone noticed these in any other places? Very nice to get water and not have to wait in a line.

There's another one by Claim Jumpers by the Go Karts

I don't my ears can only handle so much rape and with our block party we end up getting a dj who inevitably has karaoke supplies, some one needs to tell the kids and neighbors that they sound like glass and concrete in a blender while 2 cats run across a blackboard claws extended. And no I cannot carry a tune in a shopping bag either.

I noticed on Saturday that the stand across from Bull was open.

Is that a no?

[CoasterCale]

That would be a no. I'm pretty sure nobody wants it back. I would have rather had Iron Wolf than Karaoke.

The closest thing to GA Idol is the Ear Cancer stage in the outdoor seating section for Mooseburger. I only saw it used once this year.

So single rider line removed from Batman and Superman. Ride attendant at Goliath telling people single rider line was the same wait as regular standby and Justice League makes you go through 90% of the standby line before it splits off for single riders.

You've gotta love Six Flags logic...

Well crap.

Hopefully they remove this policy soon. I was going to get my 100th lap on Goliath this season.

[GOLI4TH 2014]

Well I guess I'm not going on Superman or Batman at least once anymore. Also it's not like anyone abuses those ones.

"If we remove single rider lines then they gotta buy Flash passes!"

Though I will say their system is sort of a mess. They were trying to put through single riders, Flash Pass and ADA in the same line in some cases. And in case if Batman where Flash Pass joins the line it's still a 15-20 minute wait.

I'd have single riders go through where FP does now and just have FP go up the exit with ADA. Then you can have a FP entrance for Eagle.

I personally wouldn't mind if they dropped FP altogether makes lines that much longer just because we don't want to pay 2 cut.

[GOLI4TH 2014]

I went to the park yesterday and can confirm that the single rider lines are still there because I got on both Batman and Superman 2x.

Cool. Same entrances? The signs were removed when I was there Thursday from both rides and the attendant at Batman said that entrance was just FP.

Not that every ride attendant knows 100% what's going on.

They'll never get rid of FP. If they did, they'd have to make up the revenue somewhere, like a season pass price hike, which I don't think they want to do. I don't mind waiting a little longer at my home park for rides I've ridden many times before and will ride many times again, but when I'm traveling to parks I may never go to again, I like to have the option to pay more and be able to do everything in one day.

[Guy_With_A_Stick]

Thank God the SRQ is still there. Superman is usually 100% because there's a designated line and sign for it at the front of the station. Goliath is 100%, but not the best system. JL just does that by design. Batman is hit or miss. I've yet to get on via SRQ yet, but hopefully I get lucky sometime.

[Re-Check 9]

All of the airbrush tattoo and caricature stands have been removed

And they have a new, rather large body art booth between the go carts and cartoon cabin

Ive done superman SRQ without the sign before, just said "single riders" to the flash pass attendant and he sent us to the top of the stairs. Then i just keep my mouth shut and the team member assigning rows will just put my group and i in a row, together. Kind of bad but beats waiting an hour plus for a below average ride.
