All rides running!

I asked about the water park being closed because it is June. Jeez.

Yeah, but dude... Every other day you start something new about something you saw on a cam or whatever. I'm trying to be kind, but what you're doing is posting about trivial stuff on a site that's already about a trivial subject, and it's not adding anything to the conversation. As I tell my kid, it's great to be curious and observe things, but not everything in your head has to make it out into the world.

Ride availability seemed pretty good on Monday, June 15. MaxAir was still down I believe and Mine Ride was closed because it looked like a tree fell on it during the storms the previous day. Went in for early entry and did Siren's Curse and Millennium Force, both of which were ready at 9AM and made my way to the back. Steel Vengeance and Maverick both opened at 10. SV was running all three trains and the crew seemed to be doing very well as I got a fly by with the train coming down the lift as mine was on the finishing bunny hops. Also noticed Dragster's black train had finally made an appearance on the transfer track and Magnum's black train was sitting down below the storage track and looked like it was about to go back on. Skyhawk went down briefly after we sat down in the seat, but it reopened pretty quickly and we rode it after eating at Farmhouse.

The only negative I experienced in my six or so hour visit was at Maverick, the girl at crowd was letting like five Fastlane people in for every one regular. It was ridiculous. Also, the ride went down for a puker and they didn't bother to close off the Fastlane entrance. I cut them some slack for trying to clear some of that line, but even after they cleared it, she kept putting everyone that walked up the Fastlane stairs on immediately. Of course, when I used my single use Fastlane later on at TT2, it was nothing like this and I waited about 25 minutes and the ratio seemed to be about 50-50.

Maxair has been down all season. We have never had an "all rides running" moment this season.

I wonder if that is going to have to be retired as well, considering parts limitations.

Siren's Curse was off and on Monday, but I got a ride in early. Rougarou was down for most of Monday, but fine on Tuesday.

I noticed that lines were unusually long Monday for rides like Gemini and Magnum, which tend to be shorter most of the time.


Unofficial Rule of Ride Removals

You must announce removals in advance so people can get their last rides in, unless a major incident or malfunction prevents the ride from doing so.

This applies to roller coasters, flat rides, water rides, and so on.

Exceptions to this rule include upcharge attractions, waterpark rides, and rides that are effectively redundant within a park.

^A New Point of View, I haven't been there in a couple weeks but on my 3 previous visits SkyHawk was only 1/2 operating. Is it still like that, or fully swingin'?

Skyhawk was running with both arms on Monday.

Why is the mine train coaster closed for a few days now?

Did you plan on riding the Cedar Creek Mine Ride in the next few days? If you didn't, why would you care? By the way, when was the last time you were even in the park?

There was damage from a storm.
I haven’t been either, but I got that from reading here.

I care because I care about the children.

I haven't been to the park for a few years. I have vertigo and motion sickness and there are about 4 rides that I can enjoy now because everything is being removed and not replaced.
