Despite the fact there are 6 videos older than it.. I agree with you, however, it isn't really what most people would call a TV ad. And flipping RCT screams...

Bradley's death was quite funny. If anyone started to watch the aftermath on BBC3, you would have seen the blood dripping of his face when he did an interview. Very funny.However, Stacey? Na, don't like it. "Oh, you raped me - I'll kill you." angle isn't what I was hoping for. Something a little for far-fetch and abnormal is what I wanted and expected; after all, it is EastEnders. But oh well, life carries on. Well, except for Bradley of course...

Are those posters advertising Thirteen? If so, what do they say - I can't read it; too blurry.
-
So, tonight EastEnders fans finally find out who murder Archie Mitchell. But, with about an hour before we find out (we're bound to be told at the end), who do you think done it?My money is one Ben or Jay.

1) Not too sure, but for a peak day, I'd guess somewhere between 13,000-16,000. However, I'm not too sure.2) All Merlin attractions no idea. However, I know TP was 2.1 million (their highest ever). I think AT was around about the 3 million mark, but again, I'm not too sure.(Oh, and Welsh Boy, sorry, I didn't know - but I thought I'd probably be wrong. )

Occasionally, but I tend to forget about it. :PAnd no. I don't think anyone on here has OCD, but hey, I may be wrong. However, my friend does have mild OCD.

I do. I wear them practically all the time; in and out of school - however, I can still see without them. The only time I don't wear them is whilst I'm doing exercise or going to theme parks.
-
Cheers for the advice, hopefully when someone tries to use me again, I'll have to the confidence to stand up for myself.

I'm sick of constantly being used. All I ever get out of people is "Can you tell me what the whatever homework?" "Can you help me with my homework?" "Can you tell me what to do?" "Can you do this for me?" "Can you do that for me?" I'm a kind person, so try and help people out, yet I still get treated as if I do nothing for nobody. Half the people who add me on MSN just ignore me when I speak to them, and only talk to me when they need help with school work or just general stuff. It gets so annoying when it feels all I do is help people, yet get nothing in return. In the past, whenever I've said "NO, stuff off!", it's caused nothing but trouble, causing them to hate me, and then more people to hate me in turn, hence the reason why I've been pretty much a social outcast for most of my ife. As much as I would just like to say no, I just can't, because in the end, the last thing I need is more people disliking me, especially when I've just begun to get more socially excepted.Argh!

I've just aimlessly read through 50-odd pages of this topic. Yes, I have nothing to do (well, except start some IT coursework, talk to friends, research Greek Mythology, tidy my room...)

But it's not only a maze; it's a SAW maze! Therefore, there's more of a chance you'll get a few SAW enthusiasts from America (where SAW is much more popular) so they can say they've done a SAW maze (or maybe even 2) as well as a SAW roller coaster. If it was just a maze, yeah, I'd completely agree with you. But because it's SAW, you can't predict how much of an increase the park will get.
-
Well, it really does depend on how much publicity they put behind it. They of course know how much of an advertising campaign they are going to do, and in the end, that is one of the main ways they get gate figures to rise. If they don't advertise it that much, then of course there won't be a significant rise. I still however feel there will be a lot of guest there. In the end, it is new, and the public try to go for new rides first. Then of course you've got the ride itself, which will still be very popular.
-
True. Hopefully it will work out like this, but only time will tell.

The only reason I'm going on SAW Alive is for the sake of saying I've done it. I have low expectations for the experience of it and will probably do it once or twice and be done with it. Thing is, with Thorpe's horror mazes (I haven't been in horror mazes elsewhere, so don't want to generalize), the actors only pick on the ones who look scared. Like last FN, the actors just tried to scare the person at the front (because that's who they saw first) and then my cousins (who are small, 12 year old girls) and occasionally the one at the back. Because I was just floating somewhere near the front or back and I didn't look scared, none of the actors interacted with me (sorry, one did) which made them extremely boring. I'm just hoping for more re-rides on Inferno and Detonator at the beginning of the day. Wild Asia is something I'm looking forward to. Hopefully, I'll be able to get to Cheesie a couple more times this season as I unfortunately never got the chance to go last year. Thirteen. It's a ride I'm on the fence about. It seems good one minute and bad the next. Nonetheless, I'm going to AT this year. Thinking of going for 3 days, but it'll probably only end up being 2. Haven't been since 2006 and probably won't again for a while. And I'm trying and trying and trying to organise a trip to Flamingo Land. My mum and nan really want to go as well, but it's just getting there that's the problem. I'm just pleading and pleading and pleading, but it is unlikely to happen. However, I'm trying to get my uncle to take me to BPB with him in the summer - if he goes. He goes once a year, but he keeps saying he probably won't go this year because he's short of money. I understand that and all, but I'm still trying to persuade him - it'll probably be to no avail, not oh well, no harm in trying.

Hey everyone,Basically, I'm stopping the Quiz for a while. For whatever reason, there's been great dis-interest in it, as has there in James' Challenge. I'm planning on stopping it till TP opens again, when hopefully the forum will be buzzing a bit more and the Quiz will get more interest. Thanks to everyone who entered this week and last. However, I'm not going to give out this week's answers yet, as I may use it as one to ease into the Quiz when it restarts. I may rethink the whole idea of the quiz, including how to enter and the actual layout and so forth. If anyone has any ideas, please PM me. Many thanks,Josh

The track HAS to shack. If it didn't, it would snap - then the ride would collapse. All coasters do it, however, I would say it is shaking much more than I've seen some others. It's probably because it is test runs and the track itself is only bi-rail. Some may say it is even the world first element - shaking track. But I won't go there...
-
Woo - Surrey rules! Hey, you're lucky - I'm lucky even to go to AT - I've only been once - that was in 2006. :DWelcome to the forums though.

^ That tin shed NEEDS sorting out!
-
Adam_Thorpe is who I more or less knew it was. XD It's half hilarious and half embarrassing. Thing is, my mum and nan are like that more or less all the time. It's fun most of the time, the rest of the time, I'm as red as a tomato.

If it's who I think it is, I'm surprised you didn't already know about him. I don't feel entirely the same way. I mean, on forums, I'm fine - the reason why people go on here is to talk to the like-minded. But if, like in Dan's position, there were 2 fanboys at my school, I wouldn't like it. In the end, every school has the 'know-it-all' in something - be it roller coasters, Harry Potter, London Underground or whatever (just a couple of examples from my school ). But 2 in the same school? Too much of a clash for me personally. In the end, school is where I can talk about bi-railed track and have everyone think I'm talking about a bisexual roller coaster - the forums are where I can talk about bi-railed track and sound normal. (Then again, I might have felt differently if there was another fanboy at my school - oh well, there's always college...) My nan is 70, yet whenever she's in a car and sees a cyclist she talks about how nice of a bum they have. She's now even got into the habit of opening the window and saying "cheeky". I don't think there is anything for you to be worried about. XD

Costing me precious votes!!! :(My vote is going to dummiguy. The only reason why is because I hate the idea of making Nemesis being made into a Valentine's Day ride. In the end, it is a monster, your 'Nemesis' - not a lovey dovey sweet ride. The two just don't mix for me. Don't get me wrong, it's a nice design and all (not to mention corny), but I just don't like the idea of it.
-
Could you explain how? When writing about the rides, I've been trying to do it in my own, personal style. I've just compared some ride articles, and I see little to how they can be seen as similar. Thanks.
-
A bit of a bump really, but oh well.Over the past couple of weeks, I've put in loads of info about the most of the rides. Bare in mind that I'm doing this in my spare time (which I don't have a lot of at the moment with GCSEs ), so I can't get it all done at once. I've got photos in the pipeline - however, if anyone has any photos they would be willing to donate, it would be greatly appreciated (of course, you'll get credit and all that). http://thorpeparkinformer.webs.com/Any comments, suggestions, etc. are welcome and greatly appreciated.

But what if the pizzeria is a really bad one where the most confusing pizza there is a ham and pineapple? Or if they are al just pre-made and just need to be thrown in the oven. I can go on just as long as you can...
