Nonsense

Another excuse to share a bit of music I love and play a little game. I'll post a selection of videos which are clues to or associated with another track, you guess what that track is by posting a video of the one you think it is. Get it right and have a go yourself. Or I'll do another one if you can't be arsed. Does that make sense? There should only be one track that fits. So... ... go!

Let's try this again What is Mafia? The basic idea of Mafia is that out of all the people playing, there's a small group of Mafia trying to bring everyone else down. Everyone else is in the Town, otherwise called "villagers" or "innocents" or so forth. The Town's goal is to get rid of all the scum players. They do this by taking a majority vote each game Day for who they want to get rid of. The Mafia's goal is to outlast all of the Townies until they control the majority vote, at which time there's nothing the Town can do to stop the scum from completely taking over. They can do this by avoiding being voted out and killing players during the Night phases followin…

It has got to that time of year again! Same as ever: +1 and -1 each turn you must wait three turns or 24hrs before your next go, whichever is the sooner ride removed on 0 and all others reset to 5 List is the rides that are advertised on the Thorpe Park Website to avoid over lengthy un-fun voting Will be interesting this year to see how the new attractions in Angry Birds Land, match up to the existing attractions and where Chief Rangers Carousel will be placed in it's last season! Will Slammer keep it's title from 2013 as the best ride at Thorpe Park? To start us off I will be doing: +1 Angry Birds 4D Experience -1 Storm In A Teacup (These cups serio…

Listening to music lately, I've really come to notice how ridiculous, odd, and obvious some of the lyrics are. Post some of the stupidest, obvious and misheard music lyrics you've heard here, and let's just see how odd the world of song writing is I'll start: This is a song by Scooter, can't remember the song's name though: It's not a bird, it's not a plane. It must be Dave, who's on the train.

Got any stories about yourself which are particularly spooky? How about paranormal experiences you/friends/relatives have had? It's nearing Halloween and rather then plodding along to a scare attraction we should just scare each other here! (If we can .-. ) I go camping regularly, its just a cheap way of being able to go out with friends that don't necessarily go to college with me every so often. The main stories we tell each other are repeated pretty much annually, and are either: Click Click Slide Inside out Small squares Pins and needles Of course a couple others are thrown in but these ones our are favourites. I got some 12 year old's crying to small squares once…

It's not really a game but a discussion and I didn't know what section of Thorpe Park section, I could create this topic. The 'game' is simple: Imagine Thorpe Park is empty and no coasters or rides are built and you're given permission to build whatever you like within reason 1. No 500.ft + coasters as the planes don't fly over Thorpe Park but take an alternate route 2. The weather isn't as bad as it is most days. 3. All land that's in-filled is set and stable 4. Normal tech issues like Slammer's reliability no longer exist due to improved versions *I haven't figured out all the rules, so we can see how we get along. - 1. B&M, multi-inversion, floorless coas…

"You unlock this door with the key of imagination. Beyond it is another dimension. A dimension of sound. A dimension of sight. A dimension of mind. You’re moving into a land of both shadow and substance, of things and ideas. You've just crossed over into…The Twilight Zone. Tonight’s story on The Twilight Zone is somewhat unique and calls for a different kind of introduction. We invite you, if you dare, to sign up because in this episode you are the star. And this game travels directly to…The Twilight Zone." Hello friends. Improve The Smiler and The Dark Forest were moderate successes. I want to try something different and attempt a game of Mafia.

Thank you guys <3 - Ben

Let it be obvious from the start that this topic is in no way serious; the aim of the topic is simply to come up with fairly ridiculous ways to 'improve' the Dark Forest themed area of the Alton Towers Resort. This topic is 'photoshop' friendly so enjoy the example post: 'I would improve the Dark Forest with... Dragons.' This is supposed to be a bit of fun. Any useful points that contribute to actual discussion should be directed here in the Th13teen topic.

To celebrate the launch of Angry Birds land at THORPE PARK RESORT lets have a sporadic, unofficial, awarded by anyone, TPM Angry Bird Award! To celebrate those amusingly angry posts. In a surprising turn of events the inaugural winner is not Holly... Congratulations Steven Vig. For services to rage and unwarranted aggressive rudeness, you are todays Angry Bird. Feel free to award your own...

In this game, you will be tested on your artistic side, and see how people respond to your fantasmical, splendilious ideas!
