SFA 2006??

Fine, CNiece. Who EXACTLY does your uncle know?

Right now SFGRADV,SFGRAM & SFMM are the only SF parks that ever get coasters anymore.....

Only two SF parks received new coasters this year: SFGAdv and SFNE. Not SFGAm. Not SFMM. Nice try, Batwing.

NO ROLLERCOASTERS FOR SIX FLAGS AMERICA IN 2006! Now, is that readable?!?!?

I wish I had this much hope to get a new car THIS year..it just might work out in my favor..

I'm still not convinced Batwinfan and costerniece aren't one in the same or at least related.

Colin, Adding three, even four, coasters in one year has been done before. As mentioned above SFA did indeed get three coasters in a single year, but they got rid of two coasters at the same time. So in all actuality they had a net increase of only one coaster.

Well, thats what I was going along the lines with.

What's confirmed for SFA for 2006? Well, it's confirmed that SFA will be selling off some land. You can hear that one for yourself if you listen to the last conference call. Now, just because SFGAm built a huge water park after selling off some of their land doesn't mean SFA will build three coasters after selling off some of their land.

Other than that, I'd wait till the next conference call to really start saying that SFA will build ANYTHING next year. If attendance and revenue are down, the chances of seeing much in 2006 are pretty low, on the other hand, if attendance and revenue are up overall... well, then the possibilities are a bit more promising...

When SFMM built the X, Deja-vu, and Goliath jr all in the same year, we had a huge jump in attendance. Even when the rides were closed, people still came to see how the rides looked to build the anticipation of riding the 2 big ones. Until the new expansion was added to SFGADV, SFMM had the largest single expansion. SFA probably wouldn't want to upstage KK this early anyway considering it just opened. Until some other park, most likely Cedar Point builds something that takes the records from KK, then they are less likely to do something in the 500 foot range. Just doesn't make sense, but if the Six Flags corp decide to build something of this nature I can almost gurantee it would go to Magic Mountain, because it is what this park seems to be for, the extreme test grounds.

I highly doubt that everyone who worked at SFOG when I did participated in the 95 survey for the future attraction which ended up being Batman the Ride. At that time my title was Lead in charge (I know it sounds dorky) and I was like the lead operator for the Ninja and Scream machine. During the 97 season I was one of the individuals chosen to work at the Batman Coaster.

I'm pretty sure this type of act still happens, it's probably a little more confidential, in the fact that the people chosen are the ones that have been there for more than one season. *** Edited 8/2/2005 9:24:49 PM UTC by Magicmike***

Funniest post of the week! Get back to us when you truly understand how an amusement park is operated, OK ;)

What is that smug remark supposed to mean? Why don't you explain how an amusement park is operated then maybe I can better cater to you!

That wasn't smugness, it was sarcasm ;)

I'm not being rude or anything but could you tell me your credentials? Did I join a conversation with the CEO of Six Flags or something of that nature.

CEO of Six Flags posting on CB? I stand corrected...that is the funniest thing you've said! LOL! ;)

The point of the post was to point out that from what I understand especially from your other post, you know nothing more than anyone else. And to be completely honest you sound like a little kid, not that that's a bad thing. Just keep this in mind, your opinions weigh no more than the next mans, there just opinions and everyone is entitled to their own.

I was born in 1965 and run my own company. Just because you worked at a SF park does not mean you understand how the company is run. You seem to lack an understanding of finances and ROI, as evidence by the portion of your post I quoted on the previous page.

Mr. I was born in 1965 and run my own company, (whew) how does this qoute of mine indicate that I know little of finances. I'm simply saying that for a Six Flags park in general, how could an investment on another coaster on a much larger scale and without a doubt carry a hefty price tag suit Six Flags. Finance wise it makes absolutely no sense until they can get Kinda Ka running well and have the attendance to warrant such a coaster. And lastly It doesn't make sense with all of the promotion and hype for Kingda Ka (also included in the finances) to have another coaster, let alone one that's close by, surpase it. Now with your, I own my own company non-sense, you above all should be able to see that. By me working there for a couple of years has absolutely nothing to do with what I posted.

Sorry Partner!

Is your middle name 'wall'?...because I feel like I'm talking to one.

I'm done here.

A sustained increase in attendance or a lil' jumpy-jump followed by a big drop?

See why they won't do it again? Among other things, they can COUNT.

-CO

I don't know batwingfan in any way, and i'm not him or her. And also, why would you ever give away someone's name that gave you information? I would never do that to him/her.

I have not asked you to name any names. I'm asking you to find out who your uncle spoke to? What position do they hold in the park?

That'll give it away. Just know that (S)he is a high park official. :)
