Hey! Thanks for the link! This is just what I was looking for. Typical that the track I like the most is from the infamous motel scene As for the rest of the FN stuff I'll keep my eyes peeled they might turn up somewhere. Oh and my password, I'll be honest, I cheated and signed in via facebook. I thought I knew my login and password but it wouldn't let me in Guess it will serve me right for being offline for so long!

First post in like forever here. Howdy Ya'll Just a quickie. Does anyone know if the Studio 13/ Fright Nights Tracks are available? If anyone has 'em could I possibly have a copy?? Many Thanks B

On the face of it, the whole thing seems a bit senseless. Perhaps if we knew why the park had decided to implement this 'rule' it would make more sense, then again perhaps not....

Well I think that swimming video could be 1 of a catalogue of incidents that has forced the park's hand into implementing this rule. However could it simply be just a temporary measure over Easter in a bid to keep the queueline/trouble to a minimum?

Either that or they had a reason not to remove it any quicker.

You are correct Saw is infact on 8 cars or so says someone that we won't mention

Yes it's terrible that SAW is not open but think about perhaps it simply it isn't ready to handle so many riders currently.Also nobody insult Alfonso! he's the best!!

lol skunky I love your description of the button.Thats exactly how I describe it :)Yeah I don't like the delay however it does help when you're trying to do fancy effects with the fountains when you're showing off/ masking awkward situations.Ripsaw might have better fountains in the sense of they're easier to operate but Rameses always wins overall even if he is a bit temperamental in his old age ;)Like Sheepie says Rameses needs our love.

If Falls had been condemned it wouldn't have been open these last 2 seasons.

yes bumper boats is on topic but breakdance and waltzer isn't anyways moving on :rolleyes:I like the spinning sombreros idea is perfect for mexicana but gives them another one man op ride.ahh rattle, tis a shame like most of the dummies doon't work anymore :oand thanks for the mental image there Baz.

Fair Fair all sounds great to me.Oh dear James we really have too much time on our hands talking about this in such depth.Spongebob, Scooby Doo, Bob the Builder, yes , yes and yes however Same Difference are NOT playing in the arena, they can play a special show for you at Whizzer or something :rolleyes:Yeah bumper boats would be more popular at Chessie and I definitely support most things that would replace Madhouse. I really like your idea about Funfairland however if we get a Breakdance would it not be more prudent to place it where Rodeo used to stand? and I think we've gone slightly off topic since we're no longer discussing Water Rides teeheeBubbleworks and Falls are WIN!

heyy! it doesn't mean I don't know anything at all either! yeah tis true mcdonalds was waayyyy more popular.Thing is you'd have to be careful if you removed that building because a Vampire support runs right through one corner. Would be cool though to have a rapids ride run through there, can be all scaryyy A coaster with an inversion would be great but with the market that the park is directed at I'm not sure it would be such a wise move.Splash Battle for Mystics yes please

Okay yes James does know more about this subject than I since he operates 3 out of 4 water rides at Chessie, however don't forget I also worked in Rides on all 4 water rides infact.

Correct me if I'm wrong but in order to accomodate a rapids ride underneath Vampire would you not have to cut out some of the Q-Line extensions and possibly cut back most of the building housing Burger King?Don't take this as criticism but more of an opinion when I say I would NOT like to see Vampire removed and replaced and also I doubt it would happen not for a good few years.Yeah Splash Battles would probably be very popular at chessie however during the busy periods throughput would be about as good as Fury's...

Well we could always take the roof off Tomb, then you'd have something to look at :oYeah top trough is a bit slow but there's nothing we can do about that unfortunately.You could get out and push but that would cause the ride to be E-Stopped so I don't suggest that for our sake mainly

add any more water rides and you could effectively call it Chessington Water Park.Also if they were to remove Runaway and replace it with another ride it would be something fairly small and of course aimed at the family market still.

Loggers Leap barely has any theming.Most of those bears were installed for the sake of CCR.Falls wins hands down for theming

Only time I've seen Programme 7 being used while guests were on the ride was back in summer after the bars were being a pain and then it code phasing.Guests got 3 cycles to make up for it 6,4,7 :rolleyes:I was like grrr why do I have to be batching? Only time you guys weren't doing programme 6, programme 4 was when we had problems with the brakes and you guys had to keep sending it programme 4, programme 4.More intense ride

He'd do his job well?Not tony then

I personally would like to see family centre, bus and madhouse removed in order to make way for a coaster :unsure:would make things much more interesting.

yesterday was awessommmeeehey anyone rememberALFONSOOOO!!!:Phad to be said

I like Tomb's music thought the DVD gets on my nerves A) it's too loud and you have to put up with it over and over for hours on end.Falls has lovely music you just don't hear it that much coz it's not turned up enough.

I've just come back from Italy and I went to Gardaland.It's alright, got some really good rides. Time Voyagers is waaaaaaaayyyy better there probably coz it's the original.Their topspin is awful, Rameses Revenge cannot be beaten.Magic Mountain, Jungle Rapids and Fuga de Atlantide are all really good rides however Magic Mountain is a bit rough and needs Colossus Restraints as I was literally flying out.Blue Tornado again excellent ride but it hurts quite a bit.S&S Screamin Squirrel (Sequoia) is just weird, weird to watch and weird to ride, slightly uncomfortable but an interesting experience.Mammut which is the rollercoaster that is in your above pictures it reallly good, very thrilling for a family coaster.The biggest problem I have with Gardaland is the staff.What is the point of them having platformers when none of them check your bars/straps etc.I found that to be utterly disgraceful.All in All Gardaland is a good park I do recommend it but I don't rate it higher than any of the merlin parks in the UK, 1) because I'm biased and 2) because in my opinion it simply doesn't beat Chessie, Thorpe or Alton.Oh and haha Peter you do make me laugh thats not sarcasm btw

yeah probably.James is 100% correct what you witnessed was a Code Phase L1/LP happens all the damn time.I hate that people think it's a breakdown though. Because like you said within 5 mins the ride was reset and ready to run.Peter I actually agree with you only because of the things I've seen. Sheepie don't be sarcastic and James don't be such a know it all, leave it to the proffessionals :)jokes.

Well the park is closed tuesday, wednesday and thursday anyway, so there would be no need for vampire to be listed as available.and yeah the staff generally know whats wrong and I'm being rude and sarcy so I'll apologise.yeah as james said lift problems.theres a couple of guys that might give you more details
