As for BGW making changes, the park has been gradually changing. I took alot of pictures there in 2000 & 2001, the main change being the lot redirect, which I appreciate more than any rides they could've added.
The castle over at Ireland, what used to be Hastings, I really dug the "blasting" to the castle, it's much more rugid & real looking now even more so than before, even though I believe it's still for sale(?).
Haven't been there this year to see it witout a dead DF, though, so the park should be a little bit different this year again;).
Jim Fisher is correct - there are no big changes this year. I read that the Wild Maus (originally the Wild Izzy) debuted at BGW in honor of the Olympic Games ('96). Apparently it was to be removed after that year, but it was kept in operation because it was so popular with the younger crowd. Its name was changed from Izzy to Maus after the first year.
Just thought you'd appreciate a historical perspective.
It's certainly not as rough as others, though. Ride it if the line is short (which it almost never is unless the park is empty) or if you just want to pad your numbers.
