    Hi all, With it being Halloween and all, a lot of the topics have turned to the scary theme. With things like mckamey manor being discussed as well as fright nights and other events, I thought I would bring up this TV show. It's called release the hounds and it's where British contestants take part in a series of challenges in order to collect keys which then unlock chests containing cash. At the end of the show, the person with the furthest head start against the hounds will take on the run and have to try and escape the dogs, who ovbiously attack you if they catch you. The show is about teamwork and working together however has a Halloween theme, meaning that all the …

    Title says it all. Reading/writing is a huge passion of mine that only seems to grow at a continuous rate. This thread is for likeminded people who'd like to state their opinions on books, poetry, plays, as well as share their own mini-masterpieces! I doubt many people will, but enjoy[emoji14].

    If you are like me, You have gone out and bought a reasonable camera, and then pointed it at your coaster of choice and produced a rubbish photo. For me, it's always when the weather isn't sunny. I got to the stage of being really dejected during the last Live feed that all of my night shots were.. dire. Then Mark (head of the Nerds) said "Do you know about the manual mode?".. My response was Urmm. Anyway. He did some bits and bobs to my camera and I managed to take : Did I really understand what he did? I have to admit Nope. I know he changed the ISO to a low number and then had me jiggle a dial but I hadn't a clue why. Well not till this lunch time when I found t…

  4. Not sure if you knew, but the drummer from Motley Crue is a bit of a rollercoaster enthuiast. So much so that they built one for this years tour. Well being technology, it broke down during the New Years Eve concert (last of the tour). Video from the event below.

    If you've not come across Pentatonix, they are a fabulous American group who sing almost entirely A Capella, or Accappella, depending which dictionary one uses. Absolutely outstanding......http://pentatonix.org/ and I'll be catching up with them in Oxford on Thursday - which will be entirely different from having seen Rick Wakeman last week giving a live performance of "Journey to the Centre of the Earth" at the Royal Albert Hall.

    If you have made or bought any ride models share them in this topic below! I'll get us started; this is my recently constructed KMG Inversion ride model. Made fully out of K'NEX it uses both hand and motor power to provide the most accurate representation of the real ride possible. It took me around a week of hard work to design and construct this scale model! I know we have a fair few fans of Rock Rage on this forum(GladiatorfanKyle, DeanGaryCox to name a couple) so any constructive feedback and comments from anyone on here would be really appreciated so I can take advice for any future ride models I plan to construct.

    Its in the title. Oh and why does everyone hate a thousand suns? Its their second best album, the best being either reanimation or collision course. -_-Thats my opinion. They are my faviroute band / artists of all time, I love all their songs and they wont go down. They are almighty, they get better and better... There will be no end to their glory.

    Everyone needs a little photo fun in their life! So post your bizarre edits here! This is one I did in Paint - simply by stitching a photo of Nemesis together and have them mirrored to make it appear like a cobra roll sort of thing. The perfect symmetry of the tree in the background (symme-tree. *ba-dum-tss* ) makes it look completely innocent.

    I wouldn't usually post this on here, but promo is promo and the more places I put it, the more feedback I'm likely to get I don't know if this is the right section so apologies if it isn't. Maybe every time I have something new, I'll just update this thread, any constructive feedback is appreciated, and this particular song I wrote after watching a movie yesterday, lyrics first, and the music today so it is really rough and still a work in progress.

    Figured this could be a good thread idea so thought I'd plug this. You could be a gamer. You could be an eagle-eyed photographer. What if you were both? Well if that is the answer and you just happen to be a PC gamer, just how many times have you mashed the F12 key immediately after witnessing an awesome view? If you have any screenshots that are worth seeing, post it here! ...and you can almost guarantee that the majority of screenshots might be from Planet Coaster. That game is beautiful in every way. I have the proof and honestly my first thoughts when I saw this were very simply "How hadn't I seen this before??":
