    The rule of this game (if you can call it that) is simple - just state your favourite of any category of your choice! There's no limit to the number of categories you include, but just don't go mental and post 50 categories! Anyway, as an example, here's my lineup: Theme Park: Busch Gardens Tampa Bay Coaster: SheiKra Country: Spain Band: Oasis Song: 'In The Heat Of The Moment' by Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds Movie: 'Guardians of the Galaxy' TV Show: Friends Book (by series): 'Gone' by Michael Grant UK city: Portsmouth Ice Cream (by brand): Ben and Jerry's Restaurant: Nando's Article(s) of Clothing: Hoodie/Sunglasses (you don't say) That should be enough!

  2. Welcome to the 83 game The 83 game is a simple and fun game, (also an interesting one). All you have to do is comment on what the number 83 resembles in your life, from your house door number to even the amount of pets you have (very unlucky). Nothing more to be said really, so get thinking how 83 has affected your life!

    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…

    So guys, Legend has it that the Smiler has become a bit of an operational nightmare. Stalling, breaking down at the bottom of lift hills etc etc. The aim of this game is to become the winner and to do that you need to score the most points. Heres the criteria:- 1) Guess correctly if the Smiler was open on a chosen day. 100 points will be awarded for correct guesses. The only rule is is that The Smiler doesn't have to be open all day, it can open for part of a day. Minimum of an hour of opening. If The Smiler is closed all day then the next two criteria are void and no points will be awarded 2) If you can guess the maximum queue time on any particular day at any particu…

  16. Hi all, I've thought of this new game called Movie/Tv star TPM game. The game will work in a similar way to the banning game but instead of a member saying the last one to post is banned for a specific reason will instead post a TV or film character name and/or photo that they believe the above member reminds them of. These could vary from Gandalf in Lord of the Rings to Shrek from, well Shrek. Here goes.

    Hi Everyone, For those of you who don't know the incredibly talented Nick Hutson has been working on developing his renowned track, Theme Park Fan, into a full blown musical! The musical has been created with contributions from notable UK enthusiasts, including myself. John Wardley is also involved 😉 We are also raising money for the charity CALM (Campaign Against Living Miserably), you can donate here if you wish. Finally, we have teamed up with AromaPrime Scents to create an original scent that compliments the show. It'll be premiering on Saturday 6th February 2021 on YouTube, so do check it out!

    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. ** *** **** ** *** **…
