So, 1 person would mean they only have 1 raft around the entire turntable area at a time. This to me is so stupid that they even have to do that. That line was a 90 minute wait till about the "Roaring Rapids bridge" for the line. It seems like the only thing in the park understaffed was Roaring Rapids. I seen all the games open. They can't get 1 more person to be on Roaring Rapids. That line was SO BAD. Stay AWAY if you see 1 person on the turntable only. The amount of people in line was not the problem. The operations are so bad. I wish the park had the conveyor belt (as compared to the slow as molasses turntable) at St. Louis instead.
And of course, in the newsletter; they are like, make sure you go and ride Roaring Rapids. You just have to with your 90 minute wait, and be in our slowest moving line in the entire park while 3 mechanics just look at the ride, and say well, looks good to us. If they were so short staffed, they should have made mechanic Joe (1 of the 3 mechanics just watching the ride) run the ride than, and have 2 people on the turntable, but nope.
Bro, it closes in a couple days, chill out they're just starting to move employees to other rides. It's a yearly thing.

It's best to just ignore that user, all they do is complain about everything. For some reason, that user thinks we are interested in reading long-winded complaints about the park.

And almost always horribly misinformed about how things actually work

Yeah, his typical post is,"The other day I saw... It's unacceptable... The park should... No Red Bull... But I'm still on this forum."
Noticed there's a new design for the 2020 (Orange) Refillable bottles. Not sure if they're better in some way, I didn't get one (although I did overhear somebody complaining to cashiers that it didn't fit right in the bottle holder things they were selling...)

It doesn't come with a straw either. Mine fit ok in my bottle holder.

1.) Steel Vengeance 2.) Maverick 3.) Goliath (SFGAM) 4.) Top Thrill Dragster 5.) Mystic Timbers Ragin Cajun and Iron Wolf went from Six Flags Great America to Six Flags America. I guess they weren't GREAT anymore.

I've never heard of another apartment other than the one in Orleans Place. There are offices everywhere though. There is for sure one on the upper level of the parade doors (next to Triple Play). Above superman seems like a strange place to have an office. It's really small, and doesn't offer much privacy when you have to walk through the queue to get in and out.
Yep there’s an office (or at least some kind of room) above the Superman entrance. Look on Google Earth and will you see there is a stair case inside the queue. Does anybody know what’s above the Superman and DKC gift shop?
Coaster Dynamix Nano Coasters are now at the park! They came in Raging Bull and Goliath and are really cool to build.

Is it the building that you come very close to while on Triple Play??? It's to the right of Triple Play as you're looking at ride
