If you could change some things about SFGA, what woud it be?

[RagingBullLover1543]

[quote="sfgam05"]I say tear down stupid superman and put back up shockwave, it had a bunch of inversions, and i had a nice first drop. who cares if it was a little rough.

I think it would have been cool to build SUF inbetween SW. You know build it through all the inversions and though the support of SW. That way the cold have two coasters in one spot.

Would that even be possible?

[twixmix0303]

Run 5 trains on Whizzer, like it did back in its glory days.

Anyways, the one thing I would like to see before anything else is an Express system like Universal (or even Disney's FastPass system). Not the 4 for $15 crap. Like the current systems, limit it to one ride per ticket per day. If almost everyone uses the system at least once per busy day, you end up with an extra hour of "playtime". Think of how much it costs to run a theme park for an hour (I honestly have no idea, but I'm sure it's a lot), and how much Six Flags would save by providing an extra hour of playtime for free. The queues, advertising slogan, logo, etc. are already there, now just turn it into something 95% of the guests will use, not just what 5% of the guests will use. Besides, while guests go and enjoy themselves, they'll sit down to eat lunch, shop, or play games, and Six Flags makes some money off the guests extra time.

If they offer something like Universal Express Plus, they charge $15 for unlimited rides without a reservation time to come back. (Most people don't use more than 1 card for themselves, so they wouldn't lose much by guests buying one Plus card versus two of the regular Fast Lane punch cards.) It seems like something that once you use it, you get hooked, so I could see most of the 5% of guests still paying for unlimited rides.

Also, automated wait time signs would be nice, as well as some central signs diplaying the wait times for all the major rides in the park (one in Carousel Plaza, two in County Fair, one in Southwest Territory, one in Yankee Harbor). If they did it like Universal Express, they could put all the distribution centers in the same location.

First I would take down Stargate and Winner's Circle. And use that area as a new entrance to Hurricane Harbor, building three new attractions in that area. First a pair of really tall drop slides. A new Master blaster, and also the tornado. I would also take down the wall from County Fair and move it to this plaza, building a Chaos ride in it's old location.

2. I would build a second entrance to HH, and sell new types of tickets, One for just HH, one for Just GAm, and one for both, crossing between in CP. I would also sell season passes for both, or just one of each.

3. I would rework the Scenic railway to go around Raging bull with a new station behind the SBC SWT Amphitheatre.

4. I would put a new show in GMH: Looney Tunes: Totally Retro- Another character show.

5. I would build a new coaster on the other side of the employee access road, next to the lake, partly on the hill where Shockwave was. It would be floorless with 8 inversions, called Magnifique.

6. I would build some kind of inverting flat behind frenchy's, by the bathroom and dippin dots place in OP.

7. I would put some kind of "Circo Magnifico" type show in Theatre Royale.

8. I would make the parade, and the parade route slightly longer, as well as adding a parade during the day too, in which characters would throw beads.

9. I would also add some kind of Mr. Six Themed slide in HH, It would play the Venga song inside, and have lights and stuff.

10. I would try to get some kind of deal to have some fast food style restaurants in the park. Like a taco bell in SWT, a KFC in County fair, and a pizza Hut in orleans place or something.

There's probably other stuff, but I'm tired right now.

[Mr.SIX]

ok heres what i think they should do.

suf:put in three trains the 1st train could be loading 2nd could be waiting right before the station and the 3rd could be at the brake after the inline twist it could speed up lines.

king chaos: make it run how it did the first year it was open

ragin cajuin: put in more trains and put in tv's and shade in the line.

jesters wild ride: tear it down and put in cliffhanger back in.

batman: paint it black again put the junkyard back in and use the fog machine.

iron wolf: get new cars and keep the colors add more theming.

revolution:make it go upside down and more seats.

ae: get new cars repaint it and remove the swamp at the helix

demon: jus add the old theming

d'eja vu: make the straps like the v2 straps.

v2: like some people said add the tunnel.

raging bull: put shade in the 2 houses

giant drop: leave it alone

viper: ok how it is

and bring sky whirl back and take out a take out the fastlane and replace it with a qbot

[rct2wizard360]

You can't just remove a swamp.

And the restraints they have on Vu are meant for Vu. They are more comfortable against your chest, do to the fact that you are vertical alot longer.

Q-bot's are a real bad idea. Considering for one person they cost a fortune.

I still don't know why everyone want's to take out JWR. The little kids love it, considering my little brother and all his friends do. Leave it in danget. It's a FAMILY area.

[Mr.SIX]

Well atleast make the straps for deja vu pop up when they release the straps instead of pushing the down and pulling the up cause i have my strap all the down and i can't push it down if its all the way down already and fine dont use the qbot atleast make the fastlane like the fastpass in disney and yes remove jesters wild ride it dosen't do anything and the mardi gras section already has 2 little kids rides big easy baloons and ragin cajuin and plus all the other little kid rides throught out the park.

[twixmix0303]

Where's danget?

[mschulz5]

well atleast make the straps for deja vu pop up when the release the straps instead of pushing the down and pulling the up cause i have my strap all the down and i cant push it down if its all the way down already and fine dont use the qbot atleast make the fastlane like the fastpass in disney and yes remove jesters wild ride it dosent do anything and the mardi gras section already has 2 little kids rides big easy baloons and ragin cajuin and plus all the other little kid rides thrught out the park

*Begins counting all the grammatical mistakes*

This could take years....

Also, have you ridden Ragin' Cajun? It's definitely not a little kids ride.

[Mr.SIX]

yeah i hav and i see a bunch of little kids riding it with their parents

[mschulz5]

Please, type so people can read it, which means capital letters, good spelling, and proper punctuation. Also, you have to be 13 to be on this site, and you definitely aren't showing that you are.

If you see little kids on the ride with their parents, then that means that it's a FAMILY ride. A family ride and a kiddie ride are two different things.

[twixmix0303]

The best part is that the post has actually been edited by Mr.SIX on Wed Aug 17, 2005 1:22 pm; edited 1 time in total and is still unreadable!

[mschulz5]

Make that 3 times, still can't understand the whole thing.

raging bull: put shade in the 2 houses

Aren't the queue houses already shaded?

Rev-put in Maxair

MaxAir takes up a footprint about 3 times the size of Revolution's. There's definitely not enough space.

I would also take down the wall from County Fair and move it to this plaza, building a Chaos ride in it's old location.

I agree, Chaos rides are very fun and one of my favorite flats, but I highly doubt any more parks will buy one. Cedar Point's runs on and off, and the one at Indiana Beach is so problematic that they are taking it down after this season.

[Binks Drake]

yeah i hav and i see a bunch of little kids riding it with their parents

Have you noticed that much of the time little kids are crying when they get off?

[sixflagsguy5]

Yeah, let's knock down American Eagle because it's one of them old rickety ones right? And because it was the first ride to be built at SFGAM. And Iron Wolf should go because it's not 200 feet tall and Whizzer should go because it's dangerous to have a chain that pulls the trains up a spiral lift.

Some of the people who post here are complete morons. And then there are those who get so ticked off by all these stupid posts, especially when American Eagle is their favorite woodie.

[[jonrev]]

Keep Eagle, but give it a major rehab

What's so dangerous about a spiral lift on Whizzer?

Keep IW but convert it to a floorless.

And I agree, take out Jesters Boring Ride and put back Cajun Cliffhanger.

I'd also try to cram Power Dive in somewhere and fix the restraints.

[Drkstarboard]

5. I would build a new coaster on the other side of the employee access road, next to the lake, partly on the hill where Shockwave was. It would be floorless with 8 inversions, called Magnifique.

\

Yeah, it would be "Magnifique" if they accually built it.

[Rusty888]

GAm is pretty good the way it is, i just wish they had singles lines on DV, S:UF, BTR and RB.

[twixmix0303]

The Whizzer comment was 100% sarcasm

[Mr. D.T.]

What would you think if they fixed the AE trains so half of the riders face forward and half face backward. For example, the first three rows of riders will face forward and the next three will face backward. And so on.

[Mr.SIX]

that would be awsome it would be like a face-off thing

[Maggie&meSFGAm?]

I agree, Chaos rides are very fun and one of my favorite flats, but I highly doubt any more parks will buy one. Cedar Point's runs on and off, and the one at Indiana Beach is so problematic that they are taking it down after this season.

I know this is what we wish sorta thing, but SF will probably not put in another Chaos at a park. SFGAdv might be taken out along with SFKK's. SFNO's Chaos is gone, and last time I checked SFNE's Chaos was broke.

To me, the Zipper is almost the same thing. Sure, they are little different but they are very similiar. I think Zipper's might even be more popular than Chaos's also. I would like to see two Zipper's at the park. It is probably not going to happen.

For the Jester's Wild Ride, I still want to see a Moser Spring Ride in it's place. Windy City Amusements is selling one, SFGAm. Hint, hint.
http://www.italintl.com/detail_page.php?record_id=135

I still want to see another Haybailer type ride. I could never figure why the park didn't try to move it to SWT. It was in a terrible location. That's the reason for it not having huge crowds. How about this?
http://www.italintl.com/detail_page.php?record_id=471

How about a Spin Out? In my opinion, it is a LOT more exciting than a Huss Topspin (King Chaos).
http://www.italintl.com/detail_page.php?record_id=511

Instead of Trailblazer, I would get SFStL's ride (Chance Falling Star).
http://www.italintl.com/detail_page.php?record_id=563

I would also add two of these.
http://www.italintl.com/detail_page.php?record_id=550

How about this ride?
http://www.italintl.com/detail_page.php?record_id=247

Instead of Revolution, I would have also went with two Scats. Without that top, it looks a lot better. Trust me.
http://www.flatrides.com/Ride%20Index/VentureScat2.jpg

I would dump Stargate, Trailblazer, Jester's Wild Ride, IMS, and Hometown Fun Machine. For rollercoasters, I would choose, Mr. Freeze, a floorless, a Mine Train coaster, and an indoor themed rollercoaster.

I would like to add the Scooby-doo ride also like SFStL. I think alot more parks should get some type of this ride (Scooby-doo, Flinstones maybe, Jetsons, or some other character dark ride).

[Drkstarboard]

OMG!! They're taking down Chaos AND Selling Demon Drop?

[sixflagsguy5]

What would you think if they fixed the AE trains so half of the riders face forward and half face backward. For example, the first three rows of riders will face forward and the next three will face backward. And so on.

It's fine how it is. Don't interfere with the red side and **** up the blue side all you want. XLR-8.
