I will fight to keep outlaw run up there but I will not fight for Fireman's Landing.  I want to remain dedicated to my favorite park but don't care to over-inflate what FL has to offer.

I am with you there. I do not even know why FL is in the poll to begin with, when you have tons of great new attractions nationwide .

^There's some apples to oranges comparisons going on in the poll when you are comparing new thrill coasters to a new kid's area, but IMO Fireman's Landing deserves all the praise it can get. It's beautiful, it's brilliantly designed, it maintains thematic story telling while clustering a bunch of rides in a small area, and it has a little of something for almost everyone. The only thing wrong with it is that there's not more of it.

The trouble with all these silly web polls is it is basically who has the most fanboys. Vote early vote often as the old saying goes. Nobody puts much stock in them anyway. Want to vote more than once a day just open up your phone and tablet and laptop and you get to vote 3 times. Sort of like MLB All star voting.

Also if FL type areas is what we will be seeing more of then I guess I won't be going anymore. I am about over amusement parks anyway so it won't take much to push me completely away.
