    X:\NWO still very much does get queues, and at FN last year it was 2 hours long for some days.
  2. Why would it be good that it's more expensive than Stealth =\.
  3. He's kind of asking for your opinion on the museum, not for you to have another good old moan about some things being closed.

    Well does robot mean battery?
  5. You don't like it? =\The Samurai music is now fantastic it's got all of its older music back!
  6. Well what else would you be doing for 5 hours?

    (According to Mr.Hicks)...OMFG X:\NWO IS BEING BOARDED, COULD IT BE LEAVING!!1111 *posts rumours over all forums and pissing off everyone on there*
  8. Well tbh according to him, he can't go round Ranger County either because he'll be swamped with small rides.
  9. You think you can't win? Lets try putting ourselves in the shoes of the families with small children? Bar Octopus Gardens, there is next to nothing to choose from. In order to get to Ranger County and Canada Creek, you either have the lovely choice of going through all of Lost City, including Rush, Colossus, X:\NWO, Samurai and Slammer. Or Nemesis, Detonator, or Tidal Wave. Along with the fact you can see Stealth from practically everywhere? And now your complaining because one small area of the park where small kids can enjoy themselves you have to walk past? Well Boo Hoo...I'd also like to ask why your getting pissed about seeing Octupus Gardens sometimes, when you earlier said in the topic who cares if they see a flying coaster as soon as they step out of the dome. I can name quite a lot of people, just go to chessington and find out who.You don't have to walk into it do you? Well all the families do have to walk into the thrill ride areas if they want to get to the other side of the park. Stop complaining over something so small and insignificant.

    Computers

    We have a big room full of macs at school anyway, so I try to spend as much time there as I can .

    Football

    Thats what Chelsea fans said the last 4 seasons...and you've always failed. Miserably.

    Slammer

    I don't get this obsession with Thorpe getting a Top Spin? BECAUSE ALTON AND CHESSINGTON HAVE ONE SO THORPE MUST GET ONE!!!!!!111
  14. Very quick TR from yesterday...I still couldn't get on Rush, for one reason or another, meaning I'm still yet to ride it this year! >_>Got plenty of Stealth and Nemesis in the morning, X:\NWO has gone from randomely fun, to more of a 'WTF' type of fun. Really, different music playing down each corridor and then in the exit I thought I heard Rocky Express 2005?Slammer finally re-gained my trust, Loggers was OW when it brokedown (stacking logs right round the end bends).I love the fact that Detonator always has shorter queues than everything else.Yess, you may not have understood much I just said, but that's what happened anyway .
  15. WAAAAY WAAAAY WAAAAY WAAAY WAAAY....;)I've never been stopped from going in, and I always see people who look way over 6ft going in, so I'm pretty sure that either they don't enforce that rule, or it's what James said, and it's to attract younger kids in. Mirror Mazes are fit.
  16. 1. Quite a lot of people. Neptunes Kingdom I find is quite a peacuful place.2. You don't... ;)And I'm quite sure a lot of people are sick of seeing thrill rides facing you in every direction. At least you dont have to look at Octupus Gardens all the time, only when your near it.

    Or you could just ride it first thing in the morning?
  18. I fully agree with Mark, as I am a Thorpe fanboy, no denying it...yet I think the time has come to invest a little more in Family rides.The reason for this is that even if Thorpe don't know it, it would be a huge boost to their attendance figures. The park is currentely attracting thrill seekers left, right and centre. Sure it's good for the park, as it's their target market now, but the families are disappearing rapidly, which may explain why Chessington has been half the time getting higher attendances than Thorpe, especially in the Easter Period.What I think, is that one or two family friendly rides, enjoyable for all ages (very much like Battle Galleons), would make such a massive difference. Next Years coaster, which would cost much more than a family ride, isn't really going to attract extra thousands all the time next year, as most thrill seekers already go there, and this coaster isn't going to make a huge difference to attendances, just a little one. However two family rides, and families would start spilling into Thorpe once more like they used to, what with much more on offer.So what with all of Thorpe Park's thrill rides attracting in the thrill seekers, and then those family friendly rides attracting in the families once more, we would be making more of an even split of who is coming to Thorpe, which would be making a huge difference, and what would be bring in the extra thousands, rather than just thrill ride after thrill ride after thrill ride. And to back up my point? Noticed how at Chessington more chavs have come this year? I think personally, they've become bored of thorpe's current line-up, and yes next years coaster is something new, but that one ride cannot make a person visit just for that, like Stealth was doing back in 2006. Just what I came to imagine anyway.
  19. The 13th. Though no one really knows whats happening on that day.
  20. I'm pretty sure its been open every day this year...someone correct me if I'm wrong. It was closed last year between July and November due to it needing a new part!So yes it should be open for tomorrow .
  21. But that was yesterday...and this is today .
  22. So you *accidentely* managed to click delete on photobucket and then *accidentely* do it again on your My Photos?
