Alton Towers Trip Reports
That happened at Thorpe on the 7th. We had to queue up to get to the dryer and spent about 20 minutes under there. There was some Fat guy (no offense, but he was) in from of me who took his shirt of and got pushed back onto me with it off which was quite disturbing (he nearly crushed me ).Anyway, I actually love the video. And 2 and half hours isnt that bad, Especially if it went really fast.

Yeah ill go. So Seb are you definately going that day, becasue I'm dragging my friend down to thorpe either at the weekend or the week after (the 9th), so I do want to know if anyones coming, so we can arrnange that date, as he does not have an annual pass or anything. Meetup anyone? Maybe not an official tpm one, but anyone want to come, as theres an extremely good chance ill be there .

Your Thorpe Park
Tis ok, Your forgiven. Now go and have fun, and remember this topic is about YOUR ideas, so dont let anyone else make you get rid of them.

Your Thorpe Park
You dont need to get rid of it or edited it just because someone told you to, as they didnt like it. If you were making a theme park for example, and showed people. You cant have brilliant replies all the time. You wont get anyone telling you your hopeless. They just try to tell you that there are places were you could improve on. They just try to help. So keep your ideas as the title of the topic is, your Thorpe Park, we are just pointing out things.

Closed Rides
Most reliable ride: Depth Charge. Dont think its ever been broken, not from what ive seen anyway.When I say ive seen Slammer open for 2 months straight, for a ride as complicated as Slammer (I'm gonna get hell from people for saying this), 2 months is very good as it one of the most complicated in the park (I know what a lot of people are going to say that other rides are more complicated and blah, blah, blah, but I'm just making a point that it is complicated). Yes others are more complicated then Slammer ( ), and have probably had better reliability, but that could have just been plain luck for all we know!So yes 2 months, so what, it could have better reliability, but what I'm saying, is that Thorpe have still done fairly well with Slammer and reliability cant change the ride experience itself.

Wish a Member a Happy Birthday!
And I was hyper for both of em . Yeah thanks to everyone, and everyone who has said it but not posted it *points at Marc*. I'm probably heading down to Chesie later or earlier, and maybe a few hours of thorpe after. So it was a good birthday, although I dont feel any older it was still fun while it lasted and cheers to everyone .

Your Thorpe Park
Also I think all of that would cost too much money, as youve like put a new ride in every single year. Still ok ideas though, and welcome to Thorpe Park Mania!

Closed Rides
Slammer isnt like that. Thorpe never mean or expect or want a ride to close. Slammer is just very complicated. Last year it was open for 2 months without closing.

Football
I'm now only mildly intrested in Football. It was cool, now its got boring. I mean all they do is pass back, go forward, waste a chance and pass back. Footywoods, you must love football too much to say that, I mean, everyone is intitled to their own opinions on things.

Closed Rides
Master Isk, it is true, the website does not actually get updated quickly and Rush is avialable. Well its what I heard from my friend who went yesterday. Dunno about it now, but it seems to be ok.

WWTP Radio
Seb tbh, youve beaten me to making this topic. I thought a few minutes ago I should make a wwtp topic.Anyway, most of you *points at james* will know I'm a wwtp fanboy. Listen to it all the time and steal every ad from james . It kinda sucked when it didnt play last season for a while and when I heard it was back, I went crazy, and I mean the good kind off crazy. I'm gonna go listen to it some more .

Thorpe Park Trip Reports
Yesterday I'm happy I just spotted something joe didnt . Which was tidal getting stuck at the top of the lifthill when it was pouring down with rain. . Stealth and inferno were running 2 trains, and I'm not sure with Colossus as it the queue was like 90 mins or more the whole day even when like half the people in the park left due to the rain.Seb, I dont know if you saw me looking at you in the inferno queue? Well I met up with joe a few times which was good so I wasnt on my own teh whole time which was good.But anyway it was a good day today. The queues werent at all as bad as everyone said they would be especially after the rain!Ride count:Stealth x5Nemesis x1Vortex x1Rush x4Detty x2Slammer x1Samurai x1RR x1Depth Charge x1When uploading pics they got the wrong way round so the last ones are at the front and thr fisrt ones on page 4 at the back so if you really wanna start at the back do so, otherwise you could get confused as to why 'stealth20' is at the front.Anyway Pics!

Fastrack
I actually dont believe that. NO park would have free fastrack.
