Samurai
The scaffolding just makes it nice and easy to access. Samurai should be back open soon.

Park Music
Ive been there many days when its all been working. I cant think of a ride without audio regularly either, and when things do go wrong, its fixed quickly. And your point regarding the whole system going wrong, that is what happens when fibre optic cables are cut though, it could happen to any park with anything, but thanks to its design, we had some music on park instead of the place being in complete silence.

Park Music
Thorpes audio system is a hell of a lot more complex than any other merlin parks setup. Generally it works pretty well.

Thorpe Park Trip Reports
Fridays have allways been a busy day for TP. I went on Tuesday, Saw opened late (around 12/1) Before then rides were pretty busy, inferno required the second train to be put on etc, but once saw opened (with an external q!) the rest of the park pretty much died.

Stealth
Its hardly bad, its has a few posters and stickers on the cars (Some very comical! I can think of worse!

Rant
I thought it was him too...

Chessington General Discussion
Rush runs in the rain fine..Only rides effected by rain at Thorpe is Inferno, and some times Stealth will have a couple of rollbacks. Apart from that the rides will run, but you will be warned they may be uncomfortable in such weather. If it starts to storm, all rides will shutdown, just like they will at Cwoa etc.

Stealth
^Thats correct, it was bought down and reopened later that day.

SAW: The Ride
Thorpe will be working hard with Gerstlauer to get Saw running both reliably and to full capacity. The rides still pretty new to the park and the staff. Once the main teething problems are out the way, and the park get more and more used to the ride I'm sure we will see a huge difference in the rides reliability and queue times.

SAW: The Ride
From today a single rider queue was being trialled on Saw.

Saw- Construction Thread
It never will be. I dont see why your complaining, winners ride it before the park and ride is open to the public, there's nothing to complain about.

Stealth

SAW - THE RIDE - Open Day Meetup.
OK, ill make 2 lists, one for Saturday one for Sunday, Pm me as before to be added to either.
-
Stealth
Believe it or not, the park will want Stealth open much more than you do. They will be working as hard as they can to try and get all the rides open ready for main season start.

If the demand is there, I'm willing to try somthing new for this meet up and have it over 2 days, so those who are unable to attend on the Saturday, can do so on the Sunday. Thoughts anyone? =]
