  1. Compared to other smells on rides such as Bubbleworks+, Tomb Blaster+, Dragon Falls*... SAW: The Ride+ is not as good in my opinion.+ Station.* General smell of the water.

    I can only emphasise what Mikey has wrote to be honest.Without the people who created Mania Hub, there wouldn't be one!I am excited to start this challenge and hopefully produce a good final product with the lovely Mikey! :DIt is also a shame to see Mark go and hope that he still stays around!
  3. Thank god for that!Out of all the names, that was the one I found the weakest!Well done CWoA & Zoo!
  4. I would guess that Monkey Swinger and Tuk Tuk Turmoil will be on the Ultimate Express Pass as well.Regarding Kobra - I personally think that it will be available on the Express Shot for £4 and the Ultimate Express Pass. However, not on the usual Express Pass for £7.I am also emphasising that I feel that Kobra will be being introdued to an Express Pass Queue Line.
  5. Agreeing with signs up.I don't think you should put it as a kiddies ride though. More the fact "a ride for everyone". (Within reason obviously )The Merlin Entertainments Group might even do a cool audio piece to put above the sign as it could be "beachy" due to Neptunes Beach behind it! :DMaybe something like..."Hey dudes! Oh and dudettes! Have you felt the waves yet? You haven't?! Well why not come over and ride the groovy Fish that Flies!"Then you might even want to add something at the end like..."You only have to be 0.9m to ride the Flying Fish, so that is pretty much all dudes and dudettes, so are you cool enough to feel the waves?"Just ideas obviously! :D
  6. Obviously Rodger the Dodger's Dodgems and Billy's Whizzer were on the Ultimate Express Pass...1. Will Monkey Swinger and Tuk Tuk Turmoil be on the Ultimate Express Pass?2. Will we see Kobra getting a Express Pass queue and being available on selected/all Express Passes?
  7. I agree!And I always have felt that you are never too old to ride a good old Runaway Train style coaster. (In our case, a good old ride on a Fish! )

    As James stated, Unfortunately the parks fellow neighbours aren't a big lover of noise, despite living by a theme park.I mean, why choose to live near a theme park then if you don't want noise? (Good old Vampire for winding them up. Yet another reason to love it! )Anyways...I agree fully with the idea of an attraction like Kilamanjaro Safari. I personally found this to be great when I rode on it for animal and human interaction.Even though the park has Safari Skyway, which is amazing; They could also add an attraction that is especially designed to go very close to the animals. (E.g. Tram, Monorail, Train etc...)As long as it is reletively noise free, then it should be a great addition, with hopefully limited complaints from neighbours! :DAlso, it would be nice to see a bit more theming going on as, I think we can all agree, it isn't exactly spot on perfect.
  9. I think the Waithes do look scary! :DSeems like amazing theming so far!
  10. Regular visitors feel the "pinch" this time of year, so it should be more popular! :rolleyes:EDIT - Damn you Sheepie!
  11. Oh My God!Look at it swing in all of its sexiness!!!James - I don't care that I can't vote for you - JAMES TO WIN!
  12. Dragon Falls. "Oi! You keep your booty in the boaty!" :PEDIT - Due to 2 pictures being allowed now...Had to be a Vampire one didn't it!
  13. There is a positive any negative for this point...Negative - You are right Neilfever, it is barely noticable and is not as popular as it could be.Positive - You can usually guarantee a ride on the Flying Fish with mimimum queuing! :rolleyes:If it was to bother a lot of guests, then I would imagine that THORPE PARK would put a sign just before you turn left (if facing the Dome) to go to Flying Fish.

    I agree with that completely Sheepie.I feel so sorry for the lions and tigers when I see them on Safari Skyway.They always look bored and are always sleeping.It would be nice to give them a bigger enclosure in the future and definately some more entertainment so the brain is still being stimulated.
  15. I think it was due to the construction of Stealth that some underground works had to be shut off for the creation of Stealth.I know this is correct for the fire effect as the gas line had to be closed off.I am unsure whether something, along those lines, applied for the water effect as well.
  16. I came off the Flying Fish all hyped up too! (Except I am 17 )

    I usually just ask a friend to send it over MSN if they have what I want
  18. As legendary as the Corkscrew was, we can all agree that it wasn't exactly a popular ride for the park.I have been to Alton when all the major rides were near on 60/90 mins and Corkscrew was 10 mins.You can argue that it is at the back of the park, but that didn't stop its past partner - Rita: Queen of Speed.I really am going to make the effort this year to visit to see what Thirteen is all about!

    Don't get too carried away. It wern't that frightning :rolleyes:And small things amuse small minds I suppose.....
  20. themeparkmad replied to Phill's topic in Nonsense
    Awwwww!You actually made me a bit paranoid after your text.Mainly because I woke up and thought I saw something above my bed :rolleyes:You ba**ard! :PI laughed after it happened though. Unlike you with the snow I imagine
  21. themeparkmad replied to Phill's topic in Nonsense
    Ahhhh you told me this last night!Revenge will be sweet! :lol:I am sure you slept so peacefully after that text I sent you...
  22. themeparkmad replied to Phill's topic in Nonsense
    A what??!
  23. I like going to THORPE PARK quite a bit.However, I don't think I have the enthusiasm to work there compared to another Merlin attraction.
  24. themeparkmad replied to Sam P's topic in UK Attractions
    I wonder if this will be a new development for 2011, or maybe 2010!Thank you for the link Will
  25. OH DEAR TPKABZ!!!!!!!And Holly - I am here if you need me babe
