On your first day at the park next season, will you head to Millenium Force first? I think im going to head to Magnum, which i hope will barely have any lines, because the General Public is SO EXCITED over that HUGE coaster being built..So they will all probabally head of to MF..Than, at night, ill go and ride Millenium Force last! This way i can do all the rides all day and than wait in the long line at the end of the day!

MF, for sure. You should be able to get on it at least once with a minimal wait. After that, all bets are off.

That will be opening day!
I allways ride Blue Streak first. But if the line for MF is short first thing in the morning, I'll have to go for it!

I never pass a chance on riding the Raptor in the morning because of the smaller lines and it is cooler in the morning so I don't having to stand in line having the sun beat down on me. But this year I will make an exception. I'm definitely running to Millennium Force first.

Uhh, uhhh, damn. Do you stay with the old girlfriend or do you give the new girl in town a ride first? Life is so stressful when its filled with such difficult choices! :)

I am just to excited to ride MF, I'll go to it first. I don't care if I wait in line two hours! I want to get to the park before it opens and run to it like a little kid when the gates open.

Most def I am going on Milly Force because in the mid day the lines will be very long. I want to ride it in the morning so if I want to ride it again I can. If I ride it at night when I am about to leave them I can't ride it again until a few months later. Pika pika pikachu

I may wait until later in the season (i.e. September) because:
1.I have a season pass, and can go when ever I like.
2.I rather let all of you be my "gunna pigs" to see what you guys are saying about it first.
3.I rather wait until the ride has been run many, many times so it will be broken into.
4.I simply just don't care. This ride could be 1000' tall, for me no coaster is worth waiting 2-3 hours or more for.

only certain rides are TRULY worthy of longer than 3 hours...MAGNUM, RAPTOR, MANTIS, MF, and even RAGING BULL...but i don't care. i'll wait as long as it takes....

Hey, I've got an idea: Instead of going on opening day and waiting 3 hours, go on the following Monday and ride all you want. (Of course, this is coming from a guy who has 18 days of vacation in May). :)

Weekdays durring the first week of Sept. are always the best. No crowds, no lines. This when I will christen MF personally.
For some reason MF doesn't excite me much. Maybe it's because I was hoping on other things to be built first before another hyper. There is still a few types of coasters that CP needs and still doesn't have that I feel are more important then what we are getting.

God knows that getting the tallest and fastest coaster on the planet is a real disappointment. You of all people, with that flashy signature, should be in to this.
Look at it this way... what other coaster could they have possibly built that would have set a new precedent like this one? Not a single thing comes to mind. And if you're one of these loop fans (I'm not on sit-down tall coasters), rest easy knowing that while this coaster doesn't technically have loops, it's pretty darn close, sans the OTSR's.

i do not cast stones, tohot2se...i only speak the truth. i once waited FOUR HOURS for Batman at SFGAm and it was NOT worth it. until 2 years later when you could get on the front and really experience it. i will wait as long as it takes for the rides i mentioned....and i can't decide between Magnum and MF for my first ride. so far it's always been Magnum..we go in that entrance and it's right there. it was the FIRST ride i EVER went on at CP and we were gonna save it for last...glad we didn't as it was closed on our last day for some reason.

I've always gone to whatever new thrill ride appeared at the Point as soon as I've entered the park on opening day. With MF I'll even do one better. I'll get my ass out of bed really early (for me) so I can be at the gate by about 8:45am. For me to do that is about the highest form of praise I can give something!

On opening day, i bet the parking lot will be full by 8:45 am. If I were you, I would get there like at 7:00am and tailgate.
