might want to look at a sky sot it's not that big of an area.
Plus you then open up the question, where do the employees g?.
Now I do think they can push the picnic grove back but anything
added there will be a pretty bad dead end. Now you could set up
a picnic grove behind the nightmare building. The walk around
the building would be a bit dull but it's no further out of the
way then LC's picnic grove and I think it might still be close
to the park area then SFOG.

Yeah I’m not gonna pretend I’m great at this, these were just my
ideas. Employee parking could be moved somewhere else, maybe in
the same area just closer to like the staff building and first
aid? I’m not 100% sure but I’m sure they could figure something
out.

The first this is to have the ideas to start with. then you work
out the details. So far you're doing a good. job.
When the park had Mindbender on the 2 SFNE online back and on
the Great Escape central forums We toyed with a number of ways
to shift the picnic grove around because many of us figured it
would be the only practica place for the SLC along with a few
small rides to make a Gotham city attraction. Before the Looney
Tunes came an went.

I’ve toyed with the idea of DC themed area at the park for a
long time and I’m still very torn.
On one hand, it’s cool and all. Problem is Six Flags beats it
to death.
I think if they took the picnic area and made that the DC area
as long as it doesn’t spill into the other sections of the park.
I think a family level to moderate thrill ride collection would
be TGE’s best option. These can be changed around, but my mock
up would be-
Superman: Ultimate Flight- Zamperla Giant Sky Chaser
(

Batman: Batarang- Mondial Heart Breaker
(

Wonder Woman: Lasso of Truth- S&S Screamin’ Swing
(

Joker: Carnival of Chaos- Fabbri Spider
(

Harley Quinn: Spinsanity- Mondial Swinger
(

I'd also consider moving Pandemonium (would be called Cyborg and
be like SFNE's) and Extreme Supernova (Riddler? not sure) so I
can give these attractions a cooler theme and bring some more
family rides to a more thrilling area that would stick out like
a sore thumb at a family park.

Interestingly in your entire DC area, you don't have one
coaster. Some interesting ideas. very creative. Not sure if you
want to put in that many foreign rides in one addition at one
time. these are not well-suported attractions in the use and if
they start going down around the same time it will be difficult
to get then up and running again.
When we were talking about a DC area this was before and
slightly after the looney toons came to the park in the National
Park area. It was a very different time and with the chain
possibly expanding more with its branding ti was questioned on
if the park would be flagged. When The African area got
converted to Looney transnational park this grew but everyone
figures that a flagging would come with at least a new area and
the DC property. The general trend was a flagging came with a
moderate to large expansion.

I still think we could get flagged at some point, especially
with our new additions in recent history.
I heard somewhere that we were originally going to be flagged
and called “Six Flags Over the Adirondacks.” That would’ve been
really cool.

The over was hardly used in the later flagging really only
happened with Riverside to connect to the region as Six Flags
New England. Most of the flagged parks retained their original
names. America, Elitch gardens. Darina Lake etc.
So That name seems extremely far fetched. it's also, at least in
my mind, not that good.
Even if they got flagged Who knows what we would see.
Shoehorning a DC area doesn't help and when it came to the old
Loony Tunes national park more people cared about he costumed
characters then the area itself.

I personally don’t see IP’s working here. We’re unique and I
appreciate the name “Adirondack Outlaw” way more than “Harley
Quinn Spinsanity.”
In terms of us getting flagged, we kinda have. In promotional
stuff we’re referred to as “Six Flags Great Escape Resort,” but
a lot of stuff still simply says “Great Escape: A Six Flags
Property.”

That more branding than a full flagging. Sadly in many cased
FLaggign came with a big of lost identity. but it also came
with large influx of major additions. not uere home much either
works for TGE. Yes they did bigger investments. but the right
invstments.

I mean Hurricane Harbor and Adirondack Outlaw are great signs
for the park.
2019 and 2020 have been our best investments since we started
the “new year new ride” philosophy at the beginning of the
decade.
