It's the map for everywhere. Anyway, a bit confused by some of the more extreme reaction, especially when the flaws of it seem to be pretty much the same as the old one but just... not as bad? Information also seems a lot easier to read.

People said that last year and then... Nemesis (2) Oblivion (2) Oblivion + Nemesis -

Yes it still isn't really a 'map' anymore, but it's far nicer to look at than the old one.

As opposed to what - world's never created? Air (2) Hex (1) Nemesis (3) Oblivion (2) Air + Hex -

Air (3) Hex (2) Nemesis (3) Oblivion (2) Th13teen (0) Hex + Th13teen -

Vampire (1) Rattlesnake (3) Vamp - Rattle +

I was referring only to rides opening on time really since that's what your post was referencing But yes Europa is generally superior to most theme parks. Although surely with that logic, if you don't respect Alton that much there would be less of a reason to get on their backs about The Smiler being late, and for Europa's higher stature it would be considered a more significant issue?

Please describe this track record to me...

BLUE FIRE. Aaand Colossus, Euro Sat, Nemesis, Oblivion, Pirates, The Smiler, Space Mountain, Tower of Terror, X and some other stuff.

"I'm going to go online and have a go at people generalising entire groups of people by generalising an entire group of people myself!" Fantastic moral victory that.

Stole my exact post, my EXACT one.

Rest of the park looks like this though...

'Wow Baco, you aren't THE absolute worst ride in the world, well done!!' It's pretty awful. That's the main point.

All I'll say is... I would rather be trapped on Furious Baco and forced to ride it all day long than go on Time Machine ever again.

Maybe they could even go one further and make a whole theme park themed around Lego!

Rides are fine.

Well that was inevitable.

How has this thread got away with having a lowercase b in its title for so long? Now is the time helpful admin/moderator, please put me out of my frustration.

Look at Fish go! *insert joke about Flying Fish being the only ride able to run in a flood* The lake level is rising, it's pretty much level with Staines Road at the moment. And in the video JoshC posted you can sort of see the lake rising above the grass banks next to the Vortex and Zodiac plaza. Nothing too bad yet though.

The flood situation is being covered well online, always worth checking before you travel at a time like this but the best thing of all to do is just avoid the whole area if you can. You can be walking down one road which is fine, turn a corner and suddenly the rest of it is waist-deep in water. The lake is pretty much level with Staines Road at the moment and you can see rubbish floating on top being lifted up onto the side of the road, but the road itself wasn't flooded as of this afternoon. Still can't get any further than the Thorpe roundabout though.

Not really, it's pretty much right in the city? Way less of a mission to get to than Europa Park.

Ooh I do want to go. Even sounds like it's developing a nice early roar.

Is it at 3:17 in this?

Went on it again a further 3/4 times this weekend... still wasn't rough. But hey, as long as the new restraints still allow some room and imagineering make it look as nice I guess it can't be a bad thing.
