BWAHAHAHAHA
There is no need for anykind of stratagy for a visit for Knoebels, just go and enjoy the park. Make sure you explore it well too, there are a lot of hidden places in the park, and some rides are hard to find.
Besides the Phoenix and the Twister, make sure you hit the High Speed Thrill Coaster, a kiddie coaster on crack, the Flyers, best snapping flying skooters anywhere, the Skooters, possibly the best bumpercars on the planet (and they have a perfect ten on this site), and of course the Grand Carousel, one of the few where you can still catch the brass ring.
Have a good time and soak in the great atmosphere of the park, the people are great, as is the abundant, inexpensive food. Pack a lunch, they have picnic space for 15,000 (yup, that many), and with free admission, the park is a great place to take the whole family, even those that don't ride. You will love the park.

True, you just go there to relax and have a leisurely day at the park. Some more little tips are:
Don't forget The Haunted Mansion!! You have to try it out, its such a great experince. Try not to miss flats like Power Surge or Downdraft. Some other rides are The Pioneer for some great views of Twister and just generally a great ride through the surrounding areas of the park, and of course, Scenic Skyway, which gives an incredible view of the entire park.
A few of the best places to eat...well, thats to hard cause you could literally eat your way through the park lol, just pick out of whim as said already, lol. My first choice would either be The International Food Courte, or The Warf. The Alamo is also nice if you preffere sit down. Also, you have to get something at The Old Mill, they have some great, and HUGE sundeas for under $4!(if you can eat it all). Other places such as the smaller stands or Stony gables have stuff to munch on while there.
Some other notable "attractions to do are: the shops like The General Store and The Chalet, whoch provide just about any type of souvinier you could ever want. There are also 3 museums there which are pretty cool to browse around at (Knoebels Museum, Anthracite Museum, and The Carousel Museum) Plus the pool with the new slides if you have the time for it looks pretty decent.
Otherwise, its basically spontaneous when you get to Knoebels, theres alot to see and do. Have a great time and make sure to grab some pics if you can!

Here's a tip: Go to Knoebels for 2 days. The first day you should ride everything you want, and the second day you can ride Twister and Phoenix all day.
