  1. Nemesis Inferno - brilliant ride, B&M, my favourite coaster at Thorpe at the moment. Plus, nice place for the photo9/10
  2. That is true; didn't think of that actually. Though I guess where Swarm is out on the open, and has a much bigger lift hill (as in length, not just height), that will probably going to cause a lot more fear.
  3. I'd say the reason Swarm will look more intimidating than Stealth is because...it's meant to!Look at Stealth's theme. Quite easily it has the most upbeat theme of any major coaster. The Swarm is meant to be imposing, intimidating, 'scary'. Stealth is meant to be big and fast, yet in a way which seems more like a challenge, something to enjoy. And, of course, the colour schemes (and I'd say even the supports) are a contributing factor to this.
  4. I heard that incident was pretty bad from someone who was on-park yesterday. Apparently it was about 150 'travelling guests' who were escorted from the park for causing trouble; which is a very large number of unruly guests when you think about it...
  5. Personally, I'd say no picture can do justice to how great that lift hill looks.

    Thank you! The thing was driving me insane
  7. And he wins a cookie. Though, I believe it was the older one, not the one we currently have on-park. XD
  8. That is indeed the question, isn't it.It's a theme park ride, that was played about with just a little bit on Photoshop when I found a certain warp tool... I'll let everyone guess which one, just to be awkward..
  9. ^ Great ride, great clip, great Avatar. 8.5/10
  10. Thanks for that! :)I must say that Se7en was my favourite maze last year, and has only just been knocked off by Experiment 10 this year. Also seems to have been taken up a notch, with actors taken people from the back of the conga line in the Pride room, sitting them in the dentist chair and keeping them until the next group comes. The girl that came along to the end of my group seemed to 'enjoy' the experience greatly..
  11. ^ha, gotta love Hellgate photos still being there.Quick question: does anyone know the order of what sin is in what room in Se7en? I can work out the obvious ones of Lust and Gluttony, but from there, I'm at a bit of a lost - which is the maze's only down point for me.
  12. thorpeparkjack chilling out with his bottle-twin.
  13. Only ever had to go to school once on my birthday, and that was this year. :( Though it's on Good Friday next year, so all good :P

  14. Well, that tells us one thing - early April is the best time to be born! :P

  15. haha. It makes a nice change for me; I know someone who's a day older than me..and another who's two days older than me. XD

  16. Or that I was more determined to be one day older :P

  17. That second photo Liam posted!
  18. I realised that earlier! Little bit freaky, little bit awesome. :P

    Nice find - shame they've got the watermark plastered right in the middle of the screen in some ways. I get the whole trying to keep all the credit (rightly so too) and all that, but could've done it a bit more subtly.
  20. ^I believe that's the current stage of the lift hill, and it will be completed tomorrow or in the next couple of days.
  21. <3Maths jokes; they tend to the first sine of madness.
  22. The 'height limit' only applies to the core area of the park (ie, all of the park that is currently accessible to the public). Stealth was a special exception to the rule with council talks, etc.The new islands are away from the core section of the park and have carefully positioned high points, which cause minimal impact to the skyline around the area, hence meaning they can go above the general height.
  23. I'm in a bit of a science-y mood this evening:
