I never backtracked on SFMM having a lot of mediocre rides. They have lots of diversity in their coaster line-up, but that doesn't mean they're all that great. I enjoy the park for what is is but I still think it has a lot of mediocre rides compared to CP. I love how you keep saying, "CP fanboys don't take criticism well" when I criticize SFMM's coaster collection against CP and you don't seem to take it well either.

So what if I think SFMM's coaster are mediocre compared to CP. Is that a bad thing? So what if someone thinks MK is better than DL? I would disagree with him, but I have bigger things to worry about in life.

Alright chief. Let's just agree to disagree. Though I'm going say that you're wasting your time on these boards. I think SFMM has some badass coasters. Again, why waste your time on here if you think SFMM has mediocre coasters. You're on the wrong boards dude.

Would you like some pepper with that salt? :)

Anyone think Maxx Force is going to stay in the De’Ja’Vu spot or go around the area?

Cedar Point and Magic Mountain are not competitors. They are just regional parks located in Ohio and California respectively. They aren’t even competing on a national scale.

Apologies, admit mine was unwarranted by the crowd and more self reward. I am done and do apologize for an unneeded post.

Yes, of course. I was just trying to be helpful by providing a relevant link.

Not gonna lie. That expression went completely over my head. I tried googling it, but found nothing. Lol

If I were a betting man, I would say that Maxxxx Force expands into the area. This coaster will have a large footprint since it will be the 20th. Personally, I'm hoping they don't get rid of Roaring Rapids, though it's a possibility. We'll see.

Not so sure dude. There's been an arms race between the 2 parks for years now to be the top dog as the coaster capital.

Literally the only people who think the parks are competing are enthusiasts. The general public does not care. Cedar Point getting media coverage does not take away from Magic Mountain’s attendance, because the average visitor to each park likely has no idea that the other exists. They’re separated by two time zones and thousands of miles.

Besides, Cedar Point’s whole schtick is having the biggest and baddest coasters of their kind, not having the most. That’s why all of their new coasters in the recent past have broken records for their respective types. They aren’t worried about Magic Mountain, and vice versa.

Can't wait for the announcement of the world's largest Larson Loop!

I'm having Deja-vu. I feel like we've had this conversation many times before.

You just contradicted yourself though. If CP's schtick is to have the biggest & baddest coasters, that means they are keeping an eye on what Magic Mountain is doing since they also want the biggest and the baddest.

CP management saw the ride stats for TC & made a conscious effort to one up the coaster with SV. That's how they got the tallest, fastest, steepest Hybrid. I don't know why you're disagreeing with this. Yes, they are not direct competitors since they serve a different market, but they are definitely trying to outdo each other in the coaster department. Do you really think SV was a coincidence after the success of TC? If we do end up getting a MACK spinner, I promise you that it won't be too long that CP gets one & it will be the "tallest, fastest, and steepest" spinner.

Magic Mountain is not the only park that has ever built a hybrid coaster, and the only record it held (as far as the RMC's are concerned) was length. Rattler and Giant were taller, faster, steeper, etc. And Cedar Point wanted top outdo them all. Just because Magic Mountain and Cedar Point have a lot of coaster doesn't mean their investments are direct responses to each other.

Believe it or not, CP's additions have historically been more in response to SF Great America's, not MM's.

I’m pretty sure the majority of guests that visit SFMM don’t even know what Cedar Point is.

I'm trying to find where I said that SFMM has the only hybrid coaster. Wait I can't because I never said it.

I think you're intentionally missing my point so I'll just stop here.

Exactly. It's management who are keeping an eye on these things, not the GP. Good call.

That’s a shame. They have no idea what good roller coasters are.

Although I did hear one person at SFMM say that there’s a Six Flags Cedar Point in Ohio.

Haha. SFMM looks really fun and I would like to visit it someday but I'll never forgive the company for what they did to "The Cave" in SFOT.
The Gold River Adventure is boring in comparison IMO.
