  1. Closed.Finally.

    You love it really. :P

    Buccaneer is amazing though... Seastorm is fun but for errr... interesting reasons.Wonder why kevin said finally though? Always nice to have a theme park open! Poor old chessie is first to close, not surprised though!

    Seastorm is maybe fun to see certain members of staff at their happiest point? :P
  2. That's simply because people do not know whats best for them, either that or they're lazy.Get any of you lot up to towers, and you would die.

    Thank you for that. I know where to go now if I get bored during my shift... :)
  3. Happy National Coming Out Day (today in the US and tomorrow in the UK) :)

    I can understand why people have these sort of 'events' but surely the whole idea is to be equal.Yeah - I am gay. I can still go for any job any straight person can... So why need a coming out day?
  4. Or - just allow people with brains into the station and let them queue where they want after queuing probably a large queue and be done with it? If there are any empty rows - which only really happens in Row Two then the front onloader will get 2. Done.

  5. Fire regulations say we should cramp everyone into one small area rather than keep it empty? Colour me confused dot com...If done CORRECTLY, Vampire can excessively benefit from row batching, just need to get the staff trained up to a decent level, which is what also should be happening to even the most average of staff... If they're average, why is this? The trainers are as much at fault for poor platformers as the people are themselves...

    The only problem with batching is a lot of people will move. And a lot of Adventurers that actually don't leave their brain at home can see there is only 2 people per gate, per train.So I don't think you need a batching system on Vampire.You don't need one on Colossus or Nemesis Inferno. So why Vampire?Also - why on the topic of Vampire - Vampire will not be on 3 trains during Halloween I heard... F**king fantastic...

  7. Could someone please outline basically the Young Worker's Policy. Basically, I am 17 and I am told that I have to stay until 7pm to close down rides etc (from a 9am start). Can I refuse to do this and leave at 6?

    I've always known it now as it being compulsary that anyone under 18 has to leave no later than 6pm... It is good, if you look at it money wise, as every hour can count! :angry:
  8. Went today for 4 hours. Vampire sooooo needs the third train added on.Park was busy - hence why I left.Managed to get on:Vampire x2Bubbleworks x2Safari Skyway x2Tomb BlasterDragon FallsAlso tried out the Adventurer's Chicken Shack for the first time this year. Unlike the Fried Chicken Co - I really liked it. Just need some spicier sauces... :)Vampire - amazing as always. *biased*Bubbleworks - won't even bother ;)Safari Skyway - nice and relaxing for chilled day.Tomb Blaster and Dragon Falls - something about these two rides I really enjoy.Not my worst trip - but not my best. :PVampire - 80 minsRattlesnake - 60 minsKOBRA - 70 minsDragon Falls - 40 minsTomb Blaster - 20 minsDragon's Fury - 60 mins

  9. Nemesis 5/5 - An iconic ride. Favourite ride after Vampire.Air - 2/5 - Boring. Oblivion 5/5 - Still go on it nervous. -_- Thirteen - 2/5 - Soo not worth queuing for.Rita 3/5 - Considering only been on once and crapped my pants. Was alright. Never again though... -_-
