Nonsense

Wishing all a merry Christmas.

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)

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...

What 2 themes would you like to see try next? These CAN'T be similar to the ones they currently have. I'm doing a case study on the future of thorpe and would like to know what themes you guys want to see next.

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...

Some of us have pretty renowned usernames. I don't like to biggit myself up but on every single forum I'm on, I'm toofpikk. And that is crap. So here, I want to hear why you called yourself what you did, and if you could, would you change it, and why? Called myself toofpikk after trying to upload my first RCT3 video to youtube but couldn't think of an original name. I was using a cocktail stick to pick at plaque on my teeth and I thought that toothpick would be cool, but purposefully misspelt it so I knew I could get the username. I was like 10 or something. If I could change it now I'd change my name to noodle or skittles. Noodle because my favourite mus…

One for the music lovers! The idea is that one person inserts a line of lyrics to the chorus of a song and the other players have to try and guess which song (and band/singer) it is! However, before the answer can be revealed, at least 3 guesses need to be made and just like in 'Lie to Me', whoever guesses correctly can have their turn! Also, if the name of the song is included in the chorus, then this is censored with asterisks (*****), prior to the number of words in the song name. Right. Without further ado, I shall kick this off with a "fairly" easy one! "The more that you want it, the more that you need it, I know that you’ll be by my side. ** *** **** ** *** **…

So, as I have a lot of free time on my hands at the moment, I've decided to create a 'Thorpe Park Monopoly' for a bit of fun(Alton Towers have their own version; why not Thorpe?! ). It's a work in progress at the moment, but here's the game board as it stands... As you may notice, the template I found is the American one, so the prices are in dollars, but ah well.. It's lacking text at the moment too, and a few pictures and such, because it's just the 'first version', and it looks really bad because the best editing software I have is Microsoft PowerPoint. The plan I have is to create mock ups for the property, Chance and Community Chest cards as well, pretty mu…

Bored so thought id start this off!

We've all had, or heard of a cheeky nando's experience. Notoriously Londoner is the cheekiest of the cheeky when it comes to cheeky nandos, but others of us too have had cheeky nandos every once in a while. I once had a cheeky nandos, I went with a couple friends and we all sat round a half chicken. I ordered it with medium cheeky piri piri sauce on it and I asked for a cheeky extra hot flag in it. As I was given the chicken it grabbed my crotch and went 'oooooh cheeky'. Good chicken. Share your cheeky nandos experiences here!!

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 choons of your choice for one week only. During your week you post a track a day under the following categories: MONDAY - the first record you ever bought (or downloaded if you are a child of the 00's). However embarrassing it may be. TUESDAY - your hottest record in the world right now. It better be good! WEDNESDAY - a guilty pleasure. Because everyone loves a bit of cheese. THURSDAY - anything goes. Something spe…

I couldn't find a topic anywhere for this surprisingly, so I decided to make one. The Simpsons is a long established cartoon television show that's been around now for over 25 years and in its time has been very popular. However today, one of the show's long running voice actors Harry Shearer has apparently decided to quit the show, following some disputes including wanting to do other work. Some of you may not know who he is, but has voiced a big chunk of some of the show's primary & secondary characters including Mr a Burns, Smithers, Principle Skinner, Kent Brockman, Ned Flanders & Reverend love joy.

The rules of this game is someone says a word and you have to say a word relating to that and if someone else says the same word you are out! I shall start with the first word : Slammer

I will start it off here is the picture:

Lets make a nice collection of Gifs, so in that troublesome need when all you can do is post an animated picture, you only have to look here! I'll start.

Closed Season seems to have dragged on for a bit too long this season (and I have a bit too much spare time on my hands this afternoon), leading to fanboys, enthusiasts and anyone who visits these humble forums in general over-analysing black and white drawings of a square posted by Thorpe. But lo! A saviour has cometh! Meet Tucker: Tucker is here to save our closed season, and reveal the new thing for 2015. But what is it? Tucker likes to pull funny faces, so people won't ask what this NEW FOR 2015 thing is: He gets particularly pouty when people keep bugging him about it: So he escapes to Alton Towers occasionally, and gets corrected...…

Everyone loves some good quotations! Someone posts a quotation (from anywhere) and the others just try to guess who and where the quotation comes from! EXAMPLE: "I gotta stop taking my baths during Peter shenanigans!" Correct answer: Cleveland - Family Guy Whoever guesses correctly goes next! (after confirmation). Right. Without further ado, let's begin! ("...and here...we...GO!" < bonus points for guessing this one ) "Almost there! Remember - you're looking for a gun that makes holes! Not bullet holes! But...well, you'll figure it out! Really do hold on this time!"

As started in chat tonight; simply post a link to a video of a song (can be a random song thats not a chart song) that reminds you of a TPM Member (obviously post who they are) So I'll kick it off. _____ - Mer!
