Closed season is upon us yet again so it's time for the annual ride game yet again (last year's seems like yesterday). Same rules as previous years apply: +1 and -1 each turn. Before you can take another turn, you must wait for three other people to take a turn. Once a ride hits 0 points, it is REMOVED from the list. All other ride scores are RESET to 5. It will use the same list as last year but with Derren Brown's Ghost Train added and Loggers Leap removed. I will start us off by adding a point to Slammer and removing a point from Storm Surge. Angry Birds 4D Experience (5) Colossus (5) DBGT (5) De…

I make this topic as something embarrassingly funny happened to me today and I don't think it fits in confessions. What's the most embarrassing thing that's happened to you, or someone else, in your life? Mine has to be my ringtone going off in History today. Loudly. My ringtone is the Vampire theme song. ? I managed to play it off by saying "that's not my ringtone" and "I have no idea what that was" thankfully it stopped after the first two notes and someone inadvertadly got me out of it by saying "it was probably just a game, like 'count Dracula has given you free something or other" and then my teacher says "or your phone just makes c…

Does anyone have any tips for beating boredom in the queueline? A group of us made an in-queue game for 2 or more players: One person in your group thinks of and states the name of a ride/attraction beginning with A. The next person repeats the first person's answer, adding their own answer for a ride/attraction beginning with B. The next person repeats the first two rides/attractions said by the first two people and gives an answer beginning with C and so on. It's even more fun if you think of a ride with the longest name possible! Haven't really figured out what happens if someone can't think of one of the answers/takes too long/gives a wrong an…

For the love of god start a band and make this your debut album cover. Please

After a series of spam comments in the 'SW8' and 'The One After WC16' threads I am pleased to announce this topic Use this topic to come up with predictable Merlin-esque names for rides Example: 'Galactic Sub-Terra Inferno, the world's first rollerocaster with real molten lava!' This topic is just for fun and will be linked whenever 'name banter' spamming occurs in main topics

You're welcome coaster dude

Since we have a thread for showing off your classy (or not so classy) desktop, I just thought it's necessary to also share your phone wallpapers! Shamelessly, this is mine : (You can screenshot your actual phone screen if you wish. As a Moto E user, I have no idea how to screenshot!)

A brilliant game for the closed season! Hopefully there are some people out there who've played this! Otherwise, I shall explain below: Basically, the aim of the game is to simply come up with the funniest, dirtiest...or just the most ridiculous sentence! Each player is given a series of white cards, each with a random word or minor scenario. However, one player per round is "card czar", meaning they are in possession of a black card containing a sentence, often with a series of blank spaces. The other players must then put forward one or more white cards. The number of white cards to be submitted depends on how many the black card is demanding. For instance, if the s…

Mine goes like this: Wake up kinda early, go into my parents room, open the smaller presents usually found in a Red Christmas stocking (From Chessie, of course) when my sister wakes up then we go downstairs and open the rest. After that my Dad's side of the family either comes round ours, or we go round my aunts or nans (it rotates). That's it really. (Bare in mind I'm not out of hel- sorry, secondary school yet)

Wishing all a merry Christmas.

Well this went quite well last year, closed season dullness is here so lets go again, shall we? Wave your hands in the air like you just don't care... ... it's time to be TPMs resident DJ! For a bit of fun, to share some music you love and maybe some things about yourself, take your turn behind the wheels of steel and spin the choooons of your choice for one week only. During your week you post a track a day under the following all new for 2015 categories: MELLOW MONDAY - Some thing you like to relax to. Ease the stress of the start of the week with something that helps you chill. CHEESY TUESDAY - Something you love, but maybe you shouldn't. We've all got a few. W…

It's closed season...and somehow people have forgotten about this game! Same rules as previous years apply: +1 and -1 each turn. Before you can take another turn, you must wait for three more turns or even 24 hours. Once a ride hits 0 points, it is REMOVED from the list. All other ride scores are RESET to 5. Same list as last year, only with IAC added to the list and Chief Rangers Carousel removed ( ). Slammer will remain on the list, despite its very turbulent end to its season...but will it emerge as a three year winner??? To start with, I'll be adding a point to SAW - The Ride and removing a point from I'm A Celebrity. So without further ado, LET THE GAMES BEGIN! An…

It's closed season. There is an old app that is still popular on many devices Clash of Clans I suggest in this closed season us people here should form together and create our own clan and take over their world mwhahahaha Use this thread to discuss tactics/ help needed Probably won't be popular but I personally think it'll be a laugh...

I have made posts which have been long for example my post about Europa Park plus a few others, I tend to trail on with posts But I was wondering have people made any longer posts? If you see any long posts copy it here. We could find future writers...

This may seem like a pointless thread idea, considering we already have one for rating the above person's avatar...but here, you can be a little more descriptive, while also taking the mick if you want! Fire away!
