I talked up the zoo side of the park to for what ever good it does.
New Rides Survey
- Thread starter GrandpaD
- Start date
So spamming them with irrelevant answers is going to prove that they need to reconsider how they treat members of this site?
I also feel that while well intentioned that posting comments like that might cause them to pay less attention to the surveys as a whole.
I would like to say that I agree with all of the above. I took the screenshot of the form as 'what I wanted to say' but that is not the actual survey I submitted. Perhaps I should have been more clear about that.
Just remember to try to take this survey seriously. as much as everyone wants to have crazy coasters and such, we should also want the parks to be around more than a couple of years.
Oh I think the parks aren't going anywhere anytime soon regardless of if they continue on a coaster building spree or not.
I think the general sentiment is that we should be constructively indicating they need to bring a focus back to the other parts including animals, flats, kiddie rides, and/or theming.
Did it bother anyone else that one of the sliders was a preference between height and speed?
Doesn't height imply speed and speed implies some sort of height to burn off said speed.
Why was that a thing?

I'm guessing the difference between a launch and a traditional lift - VB goes relatively fast but it's still fairly low to the ground, AC goes a bit faster but is much taller.
I left my answers mostly neutral on that page - I think about it as each extreme wasn't really a polar opposite and they can each bring something to the table.
Of course, as someone who helps shape and interprets online survey data myself, neutral answers usually only help with blunting the impact of low scores.

Agree with all of the above, now that I've actually read it. Height vs. speed is a terribly worded forced choice for anyone who likes tall conventional roller coasters.
Survey design makes or breaks opinion gathering initiatives...

I did not do coaster and didn't have those questions. I was asked about heights for family attractions.
I did (truly) plug BGWFans in my comments. I recommended the park look at an interactive dark ride and some "family oriented attractions" in that I learned from BGWFans that the park was adding 2 new coasters the next 2 years.
I’m fairly certain they will just ignore any feedback that mentions BGWFans.
I did. I pushed for the zoo side to get something new and mentioned how the animal ride side was ueneak to BG parks and to replicated any where else locally.
Pretty sure, after a ton of surveys received from areas where they didn't email it, that they might just toss the whole thing.
