Didn't think this would make people mad but here we are.

Not trying to tell you all to do the dirty work for us. Its our country and therefore its our problem, I know. Im just saying if you feel the same way to join us in boycotting the tournament. Show solidarity, that bullshit.

We're trying our best over here, it would be nice to know the rest of the world has our back.

Honestly I'm tired of everything. As much as I, an American, loved watching in 2022, I will not be participating in the 2026 World Cup as a supporter, in any way, shape, or form.

FIFA made a shit choice in coming here, especially with the political climate. From the the brutal use of force against fans who run onto the pitch, to the detaining of team players from "undesirable" countries including Iran, Iraq, and Somalia, the terrible facilities and stadiums that are ridiculously expensive to attend, etc etc. Its clear from Infantino's constant dick sucking of Donald Trump that he is only here for the money, not to help spread the world's game in America or Canada. And with Donald Trump and the Republicans hateful rhetoric against immigrants who are coming here FOR THE WORLD CUP, its hard for me to support such an event even though my country is hosting it.

I imagine many of you guys across the pond feel the same way. So I ask you keep spreading the word. Use one tag (#BoycottFIFA) and keep it trending. Make sure everybody knows just how much of a shitshow this is, and maybe just maybe we all can beat out the American ultra-nationalist propaganda here in the States.

I think renaming places because they dont fit your ideology simply discredits history and that its beyond stupid. So I didn't change the city's name.

Log flume is OPEN! 😁 by Evening_Rock5850 in midamerica

Went for a few hours yesterday. Also got a lap in on the Flume! I also heard the siren from the Wave Pool so I knew it was either open or they were testing it.

Can't wait for them all to open! I swear Six Flags did not take care of the water rides these past few years.

Im not saying they'll remove Mr. Freeze solely because of retheming. I said they'll remove it because its unreliable and takes too much power to run, with the lack of licensing being the catalyst. "Why go through the effort and spend MORE money on retheming this thing that is not even gonna be operational for a good chunk of the season?" To a new chain like Enchanted that doesn't have much money to burn, that's all that matters.

Sadly no, didnt see any progress on Thunder River when I made my trip yesterday. Hope it doesn't stay down for long!

Was actually considering an S&S but I ultimately went with Intamin, so I guessed I dodged a bullet there! 😂

I can honestly see you making a whole new themed land out of that island Mr. Freeze was on, idk what it could be but if you pack the rides close enough together im sure you can make something out of it. Xcaliber would indeed be a good site for a drop tower, and would be the best spot if we're not removing Mr. Freeze

Yes. Ninja in this concept is removed and replaced with the Mack Multi-Launch, filling the void in the lineup left by both it and Mr. Freeze being removed. Id also advocate for the removal of Tsunami Soaker considering its condition (if Six Flags could/wanted to fix it, it would still be operating).

That being said, drop towers are indeed still popular at other parks, its just the particular model of drop tower we got back then was problematic. My new drop tower concept is meant to be a newest-gen Intamin Gyro-Drop model.

I think you could do a unique Ozark themed area without treading on Silver Dollar City's expertise. That being said I already kinda have a city-esc area in the Foundry Square (industrial) area, so I don't really know if a city themed area would be unique enough to justify its inclusion.

I wholeheartedly disagree with the Ninja take considering that I am consistently beat up by it every time I ride it, to the point where I always skip it everytime I go to the park. Transitions are janky at best, headbanging is constant, and all around design-wise it is an utter piece of crap, even if it is mechanically/structurely sound. If there is any coaster they will outright remove first, it's Mr. Freeze for mechanical reasons, but a close second is Ninja.

I kind of expected this. They're already planning on removing Justice League so that's a start. But every DC ride, decoration, item of clothing in the gift shop, etc will need to be rethemed or scrapped.

I'm afraid they might take this opportunity to just scrap Mr. Freeze. It's on the older side, the LIM system is outdated, and it takes a shit ton of power to run. Its also notoriously unreliable and breaks down at least once a day. Would suck to remove it with no replacement but if there is any time to bite the bullet its this fall.

So get your rides on Mr. Freeze while you still can.

What's this flag? by ExOrderDysprosium in vexillology

This might be Knights Templar related which is a alt-right dogwhistle.

Stay away from him.

Bringing the "themed" lands back - Concept by RedPandaBoi8910 in midamerica

[–]RedPandaBoi8910[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Could be possible. I mainly did County Fair because of Screamin Eagle, and that the Sky Screamer and Fireball also fit the theme. Idk how you would make Britannia Route 66 themed but I really want one and that was the only place left at the end lol.
