Technically I would prefer mostly level ground for a park,although,knowing what I know now,having a hilly site can be a good thing:just look at BGW's placement of LNM & BBW(now Verbolten).

Im going to say mostly level ground. While BGW does have some pros with their hills. SFOGs hills are major pain. Having to walk over them to get to certain rides gets annoying.

Level. Anyone who has been to SFMM can agree that walking around that mountain is exhausting.

I'd say a bit more hilly so we would be able to have some terrain coasters. I got to ride The Beast at Kings Island (a terrain woodie), and it's one of their best coasters, especially at night!

 

However, I wouldn't want it to be so hilly that it's hard to get around the park.

How about a place like SFSt.L?-a mostly open spot that's got a ravine "in back" (where their first woodie dives into)?

The park itself should be on leveled ground. It's tiring walking up hills like Hershey Park. Terrain coasters are great and are unique to the parks they're at. Like Phantom's Revenge at Kennywood.

People are so out of shape now days, the Magic Kingdom has too many hills for guests. The flatter the better for most people, although I prefer the hilly terrain of Hershey Park, Six Flags Over Georgia and Busch Gardens.

I don't mind hills except on very hot days. Hershey also has blacktop walkways that get much hotter than concrete walkways like Dorney has.

I voted for level ground. I don't always mind the hills at other parks but the large hill Dorney is on can get annoying at the end of a long day after spending hours in the waterpark and climbing hundreds of stairs and then leaving the ride side of the park and walking up that hill.
