  1. SAW: The Ride

    in General Discussion

    Posted

    No in april the fastrack queues were small 5-20 mins (I went in fastrack enough times !! ultimate) so I would expect something like 15-30 mins fastrack for fright nights

    The Fastrack queue for Stealth last year at Fright Nights was coming out of the Fastrack entrance.

    It is, hence the name 'Disco Coaster'. Back on topic: I haven't been to Chessington & Zoos for about 2 or 3 years so I vagely remember the staff.

    First of all its Disko and again not a coaster, its a flat ride, I remeber alot of people saying this to you and I think I can get alot of people to back me up on that.

    Zamperla are also a major manufacturer of flat rides with such names as: Balloon Race, Bumper cars, Disk-O, Ferris wheel, Water Flume Ride, Galleon/Swinging Ship, Sky Drop, Discovery, Windshear, Tornado, Energy Storm, Z-Force, Mixer, Rotoshake, Turbo Force, and Power Surge.

    Zamperla also builds roller coasters, like the powered Dragon Coaster, Mini Mouse, Zig Zag, and Tomb Raider: The Ride. In 2006, Zamperla announced Motocoaster, a motorcycle-themed roller coaster.

    Today I went to Thorpe Park with Jack (Jack the sack on here) and two of my college friends.We had a really great day today. The ques were very short from 0-15 mins, so we managed to get on quite a lot of them. Stealth and Tidal Wave were closed today, I wasn't happy about Stealth being closed though since I wanted to go on that before I left.For the ride count for today...not very good, but I'll put it down haha.Nemesis Inferno - 2Colossus - 1SAW - 1 =/Rush - 3Detonator - 2 (first time)Samurai - 1 (first time)Vortex - 1Slammer - 1 (first time)X:\ No way out - 1Quantum - 1 (first time)Logger's leap - 1 (Would of be 2, but we didn't have enough time)Mr Monkeys Banana ride - 1Rumba Rapids - 1

    Glad you had a good day Chantelle, shame about Stealth though.

    I have the radio on quite a bit; And whether I am in the car, common room at college, or my house, I can still hear that bloody voice shouting 'Green Army'.It is like, Who has some spare sellotape to put over his mouth! :blink:

    I have just seen a new Go Compare advert, still with the same annoying man.

    That totally deserves a positive plus for your post :P'Go Compare' and 'Green Army' should never beallowed to be put together again! :blink:I don't hear the 'Go Compare' one often, but the 'Green Army' is on the TV and Radio.I don't watch much TV, But I can guarantee seeing / hearing it a million times!

    I don't listen to the radio much, but that advert is so annoying, but yeah, they made such an awful joke at the end of the advert.Both your posts deserve a plus one! :blink:

    Is it not a TV programme, but a TV advert.I literally feel like tearing my hair out everytime I see that "Green Army" advert.I am sorry, but if I ever met that guy, I am afraid I will have to strangle him! :blink:

    I completley agree, I also hate that Go Compare advert, its so annoying.

  16. Queue Times

    You do realsie how big the fastrack queues are at Fright Nights?, your right Mark, last year people started queuing for the Asylum at 3-3:15, the longest I have ever waited for Hellgate is 1.5 hours. Ghandi you can get Ultimate Fastrack for the mazes and rides but it is £75 rarther than £60.

    are you sure he wasnt pulling your leg? he would go to guest services to complain not an office.

    If you go around the back there is an office there, I went there when we had chav problems (11th August 2009) and sercurity came out to talk to us but I didn't see any blueprints, but then again, I wasn't really concentrating on that sort of stuff.

    Also Stealth888, the batcher that is NOT on the stairs but in the main platform has enough to worry about with the main queueline, this is because you can get a lot of people in the loading docks, he needs to batch the correct number of guests in each dock give or take, its not easy for them they have to be on the ball at all times or will just be a complete disaster.If the batcher cocks up on his numbers, they then have a frantic rush to get the single rider on the ride, and like has been said if they have baggage it will then delay even further.

    There is always some people who don't go in the row they are put in, this happened when I went at the start of September, the car was delayed about 20secs going out becuase a group of 4 chavs wouldn't go in row 2.
