I would put one in Little Rock, Arkansas, because there isnt one close to them. That is...if you consider Texas Six Flags parks close. I would call it Six Flags Little Rock I guess.
ALthough I don't think there is a need for another North American park, I would probably put one in Minnesota to compete with ValleyFair. I'd probably call it Six Flags Adventure City. It wouldn't be anything huge, just something small and nice (which prob wouldn't happen cause SF would screw it up, but hypothetically).
I'd put it in Oak Forest, right by my neighborhood. They would have to take out a bunch of trees, but it still would be a nice place. Some of the roller coasters could go right over the twin lakes. I wouldn't make it too big though. It's like a 10 minute walk from my house. I wish that could happen someday

pretty much anywhere between the NW and SW (obviously not Cali) or the far NE. it seems to me they're hurting for parks, but still have good populations.
I don't have a detonator; its on a timer.
A countdown timer?
No, a count-up timer. It goes from one to explode.
After being in the area for a good few months and witnessing firsthand the absolute EXPLOSION of people coming, I think the Salt Lake area would make a great place for a new and profitable theme park. Right now, there's only a park called the Lagoon north of the city with a few average coasters and a $44.99 ticket price. I haven't even visited it yet. However the area has plenty of room for a large theme park, and with tons of families and no real theme parks in the area, it's time a company built a park around there.
You could put another one up the East coast near Providence, New York City and Boston. It would be closer than Six Flags New England and Great Escape to those big cities.
Did you know.... that Six Flags actually proposed park in RI but the state said no. They said no because SF was asking for a specially built exit off the high way for the park and the state wouldn't allow it. Years later Premier bought Six Flags, Premier owned Riverside, Riverside became SFNE.
I know this is all just dreams lol, but being local in the area, I live almost on the boarder of MA and RI, RI is very anal about building new stuff so its annoying haha.
Six Flags seems to be content with not trying to enter Florida, it's a pretty saturated market. Phoenix wouldn't be a bad spot if you can deal with the heat

Went to Rhode Island once but it was too early in the year to go to SFNE...

That would be amazing if we had one out here. I live in Park City and still have yet to visit Lagoon. I would love it if a SF park was out here.
^ When it comes to north FL, Wild Adventures is right there with Orlando stuff only 3 hours away. With south FL, you have the whole hurricane issue along with Busch Gardens being 3 hours away. Add in the fact that central FL is getting it's 9th full size theme park next year and already has 3 small pay-per-ride places, the entire state is saturated.
This is a fun topic... When I use to build "new SF parks" on RCT3, I would always pretend they resided in Iowa or Indiana so they would be closer than further away & due to the amount of "open" land.
But for kicks, let's say... Location: Wisconsin. Park Name: SixFlags Hillside Heights.
I love how a lot of Wisconsin has many hillsides/rocky slopes. Devils Head kinda look... Seein this would be a proposed new park, I would have the entrance set up as an underground tunnel that lead to the "hub" of the park which would branch out into 4areas of the park which all connected into one circle. I'd propose 7 of the following coasters:
I wouldn't want anything too crazy, as most would not think logically wanting things like a Kingda Ka, El Toro, or X2. The most expensive models are most likely goin to be are the B&M & the SLC...who knows. But I would want another wooden coaster much like the Boss at SFStl but don't know who could make it...so there's a bit of what I would like to see.

1. With 3 trains though 2. I do
Well thanks haha. I'm simply goin this route because a brand new park is obviously goin to be really expensive. So I chose coasters that would not only get the job done, but be thrilling or family oriented while a lot of them were new to the area. The only Halfpipe around is Elitch's or MOA-NU, A custom SLC would be much like a BTR familiar to IL but a totally different experience, a small(80-100ft) GCI is not around unless you take it down to SFStl, there's not one Freefly in the country, & the others would be similar models but different experiences & hopefully wouldn't break the bank...too hard.
As for my comment on the "hub", as I said, it would be an underground tunnel to the main entrance so the land is not "limited" past the entrance, havin the parking lot no where near against the park like we have. There would be Trolleys/transit that took you to the hub as well meaning the tunnel would be split between walkway/road.
My four areas of the park would be separated into "woodlands, hillsides, smalltown, & lakeside" in all these areas you can theme your attractions to local stories, horrors, or traditions to Wisconsin. Example: for Lakeside, there could be a "terror/major coaster" to the Snakehead fish or some other lake monster...ya know? Ugh this would be so fun to plan. Haha
