New 2012 puzzle solving thread
Nope. Up 100+ feet on X-Wing!
Top 5: 1) El Toro. 2) Maverick. 3) Millenium Force. 4) Diamondback. 5) X2.
Coaster Count: 167 (41 Wood, 125 Steel) @Coaster_Cole on Twitter
A eurofighter makes perfect sense for the iron wolf site. Could easily build one with record setting features in that area. If not then a launch coaster would be an even bigger hit. I dont think they would be stupid enough to waste our prime spot on a small coaster with no capacity like a zacspin or eurofighter.... Unless demon and whizzer are gone within ten years. You dont keep adding low thrill rides to a park forever and have a success. They need real top notch coasters... People love raging bull, superman, batman, and vipir. Anything else is expendable... Those are the bar that any future ride is judged against... look how much even non enthusiasts hate tdk and ragin cajun.... The park now has only two unique signature rides, bull and eagle.
I think most of you forgot the Tumbleweed was a rumored B&M 4D.
If it's a Wingrider... 
I don't think it's "up" because the top left side of what would be the u is curving to the left, which the font being used wouldn't do, would it? I am leaning toward the end of "world" at this point.
 How's this for a puzzle piece?
WTH? Is this just getting ready for FF? Wasn't the old sign back last year?
There is no way they are getting rid of Demon. After this sunday AUgust 28th, the park is only opened 6 days in september until frightfest. whats FF without Demon???
Did anyone consider vandalism?? Maybe a group of kids/teens or stupid adults sat on it, climbed it whatever & thats the result. Which only gives Screamscape the "right" to further say we have the worst park guests if thats true.
That looks like it weighs a ton though. Did Lightning hit it - maybe?
"I've been staring at the world, waiting. All the trouble and all the pain we're facing. Too much light to be livin' in the dark. Why waste time? We only got one life. Together we can be the CHANGE. So go and let your heart burn bright"
from what I've heard by people visiting the park, the sign collapsed after one too many people were climbing on it trying to take a picture. Where's security when you need them. Better yet, where's Hank to assure us "Demon is going to be here for years to come". Lol. That was a bad pun.
"I've been told that some part of every wish will be heard but lately I lost sight of the truth in those words."
it's also possible the park did that, and are just rehabbing the base. The base has been covered with cracks and loose bricks for a while now. It does look like the sign was laid down gently. If it fell the letters would have probably shattered, they seem to just be fiberglass.
Favorite Wood Coasters: The Voyage, Ravine Flyer II, Thunderhead, Balder
Favorite Steel: Voltron Nevera, Steel Vengeance, Expedition GeForce, Olympia Looping Parks visited: 232, Coasters Ridden: Steel: 894, Wood: 179, Total: 1073
I wonder if whoever knocked it over sued, if they did they could probably get a nice settlement and the court will order Six Flags to put "extreme danger" signs on the fence that surrounds it.
Seems pretty fitting considering the ride itself has gone the same route of late.
^ Funny you say that...the ride op on Revolution today recommended riding Demon but to take some Advil after since it beats you up.
I'm starting to think that drastic changes are coming to our park in the next few years. The Demon sign may or may not be a part of it, but the grassy area there is in the vicinity of the markings. If it was just vandalism, then it might be staying. If not, then the park might be prepping it for a move to another place close by. With Wolf leaving soon, Demon won't any time soon as well. Planners have to figure out logistics and survey as well. The sign might have been blocking a view and that area might stay the same way as well. I think there is an "untouchable" list for SFGAm with Eagle, Whizzer, and Demon for the forseeable future. If the sign gets dismatled, it will probably just go closer to the queue. The back of the park is one of the last horizons for the park. I think both GM's feel the same way and are now addressing it. A lot of space back there, and major re-workings are underway.
Push down, then pull up. Exit to your left/right. And, enjoy the rest of your day at Six Flags! Your friendly enthusiast Kyle.
Come on guys... They obviously did that on purpose... It's all part of project tumbleweed that the dipin' dots explained to me about. They had to move the sign 5 inces foward in order to get the supports to fit. Totally makes sense and is the real reason for demon sign to be like that, don't let anyone tell you otherwise because they obviously did not talk to the right dippin' dots vendor.
 Not much of an update here.... "I've been told that some part of every wish will be heard but lately I lost sight of the truth in those words."
Considering the arm is all the way on the side of the picture. that looks a lot like someone is sitting in a coaster seat that is off to the side of the track.
DIVE MACHINE!  Top 5: 1) El Toro. 2) Maverick. 3) Millenium Force. 4) Diamondback. 5) X2.

Ok Edited:
I don't think its dive machine, because that puzzle would not fit 10 animated people in the row. Plus this picture shows this animated person "tilted" a little, that's why we can't see the harness or anything. The tilted picture was used on wingriders, go and compare it. More resons why I think it could be wingrider: Imagine how big this animated person could be, you can easly fit 2 people-track-2 people, so something like wingrider. The only reason I don't think it could be wingrider is that we would see the other persons hand in the lower left corner of that puzzle, because of how close the seats are (UNLESS that's a first row) I don't think its the EuroF "V" trains, because the whole car "6 people" two across wouldn't need that much space in that picture. Plu the guy is showed the most off seated person, and you can't fit Logo, and 2 more rows in that animation under that guy. So all my credits to wingrider. This guys is front row, they will show logo on the train and some message under the first row... which would make sense. Last edited by T.K. on August 24th, 2011, 8:18 am, edited 1 time in total.
Six Flags Ameirca as the number 1 park at SFI.... this is JOKE!
A B&M Dive Machine with a layout less like Krake and more like the Busch pair would be such an unexpected surprise, and would just about make-up for a pretty uneventful decade at this park.
Keep Eurofighters in Europe
I'm sticking with a wing rider at this point. I was thinking the same thing as far as the guy at the end of a car with his arm up. He does appear to be off the track.
Top 3 Steel Coasters: 1. The Incredible Hulk 2. Maverick 3. Dragon Challenge (Fireball)
Top 3 Wood Coasters: 1. The Beast 2. American Eagle (Red) 3. Hades
The background is very similar to the front cover of SFOG's park map which was announcing Dare Devil Dive.
Please god, NO Eurofighter...  
I think it would be very stupid of them to put EuroF, guests would not be happy seeing another 1 car coaster. RC, TDK and now this? People will not be happy, and I hope SFGAm will notice that. I still hope for the best, but... hehe
