Postby _FuryBull_330_ on June 1st, 2018, 7:24 am
Take, I want my car nice and cool.

T/L a B&M Dive coaster takes pictorium's spot but they have to remove Demon to make up for it.
How come Lightning Rod is never open when I go.

Top 10: 1. El Toro 2. Steel Vengeance 3. I305 4. Fury 325 5. Maverick 6. Mako 7. Iron Rattler 8. Medusa Steel Coaster 9. Raptor Clones 10. Maxx Force.

Leave: I'm still betting its going to be a HH expansion. Demon is getting some love lately with theming being brought back, so I think it still has a few years left.

T or L: Camp Cartoon will be gutted and totally re-themed as part of the 2019 additions.

Take. They're having problems with all of the cartoon network themes anyway. Time to retheme. I would still keep it a kids area though. Just modernize it.

Take or leave: Let RMC loose on the American Eagle with a generous amount of money to build a world class coaster.

Take, based on how they made Steel Vengeance I could see this being even better.

T/L We take out Raging Bull and put a Giga in it's place.

Take. Would be a pain leaving, but think about that space man.

Take or leave red powerade to replace any place in the park that serves blue?

Leave. Powerade just isn’t good...

ToL: Flumes removed but in its place is a sawmill themed log flume (See Knotts) and a highly themed mini ting style coaster (kind of like Big Thunder Mountain but modern) built into an artificial mountain (100 feet tall). Downside: flume departure unannounced at end of 2018 season, rides don’t open until late June 2020.

I'll Take it! I love our flumes but my biggest complaint is the total lack of theming they both have.

Take - It's a nice ride for families and a calm flat. Nice alternative to what else the park offers.

Take 1, Leave 1 if that is possible :lol: redundant having two. But I guess if it had to come down to it, I would take both over leaving both.

Take or Leave: new entrance

Leave: While it's better than the old entrance, it doesn't compare to the Marriott entrance. I'm not overly nostalgic for the Marriott Era, but one thing I can say that they did better was the entrance. Plus, it looks kind of lame having two shipping containers on the side of the entrance.

Take. While I never ride it, it has a very small footprint and always draws a crowd. The general public seems to love it.

Take. River Rocker was actually my favorite flat in the park before Sky Striker moved in and I tried Giant Drop. Sure, it cloud clear a bunch of space for a new flat, but I'd rather remove Ricoshet.
