    Following on from the success of Sidders TPM Quiz how about another, less themeparky, one? Broadly a pub style music quiz but also taking in film, TV, word play and of course theme parks, it's just for a bit of fun. Questions like: Name the band or artist from the clue (First man sliding down a mountain) Name the song from the intro Name the song playing backwards Name the ride from the soundtrack Name the film from the theme I'm hoping to do it live in chat only, so if you'd be interested please answer the poll and if we get some takers I'll do it in a couple of weeks time, and if it goes well maybe turn it into a once a month sort of thing.

    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!)

    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…

  11. 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.

    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.

  13. Firstly, hello, my name's Connor and I'm new here. I've mainly joined to ask what I'm about to ask, but I'm also a big fan of Thorpe Park in general. Anyway, to the question.... As part of my BTEC diploma in Media we were tasked to create an advertisement, I decided to make one on Thorpe Park. Also as part of the course we need to get feedback from the clients and the audience, you guys. So, basically, I will post a link at the bottom of this post and if possible could you reply to this thread with answers on: 1) What you like? 2) What you dislike? 3) If it makes you want to visit the park (does it work as an advertisement)? 4) Anything else you wish to comment …

    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)

    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!"

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.

    If you haven't already heard, this year's TPM Awards were the tightest yet, and two categories had a six way tie. The only way to decide who the real winners are is a fight to the dea-I mean, an orderly public vote. Vote for whoever you like. No one will be able to see who you have voted for, but you can see who has how many votes. Nominees - please don't vote for yourself! The vote closes this Thursday, at 23.59!
