  1. SAW failed to open until lunch time today. During tests at the beginning of the day, it climbed at the lift hill VERY slowly, even getting stuck a couple of times. The MCBR didn't seem to help much either...

    SAW - The Films

    The Billy Puppet is £34.99. There is also a Headknocker for £17.99. There is other stuff which ranges from £1.50 (syringe pens) to £6.99 (a talking Billy Puppet keychain, hats, bags, etc.) The smaller prices do vary day to day.

    I guess that this riddle was in some ways corrupt, as there were many different solutions that I hadn't thought of. For that, I apoligize.The answer I had thought of was a queue line (you go in and start and your at the end of queue and you finish at the front).

    Although I am not an admin or anything, I'm preety sure everyone is sick of all this arguing so can it just stop. Please.As for the MTDP and future, etc. I've been doing some thinking and I'd say that something like AT's Project Giant Gurgle would fit in nicely to OG / Ranger's County. You could just imagine it... a roller coaster for babies. "Start their Thill Seeker-ness by putting your baby on a roller coaster."

    Again, could be considered correct. However, it is not what I'm looking for...
  6. The ride had temporarily stopped on the indoor MCBR due to the amount of cars of the track.Also, in SAW II, there was a trap where someone had to go into a pit of syringes, looking for a key. It was referred to as 'Finding a Needle in a Haystack'.Look, whatever they are, they give the exact same boring effect.
  7. Without trying to sound rude or anything, it is your own fault that you've cut yourself. There's 'barbed wire', so you touch it?Anyway, I doubt TP would make it remotely dangerous as there will be many stupid people trying to touch it... (plus there will be actors using that to their advantage during FN).

    Not correct.Answer will be revealed tomorrow if no one gets it right...
  9. If you look, they are syringes. Look backwards when you're on the ride, they look like syringes. However, many people may see it either way and it still gives the exact same effect. Anyway, it is the worst part of the ride, so much more potential there...(Also, thanks for the info on the crossbow thing, I thought it was strange that people were saying crossbows were being fired in front of them. )

    Not the answer looking for, but it could be considered as right...
  11. SRQ did seem preety bad. Luckily, I went on really early and was the first SR of the day. That's how I got on SAW twice.I know this is a odd question, but on the indoor MCBR, are crossbows meant to be fired in front of you as well as the blasts of air?

    What starts at the end and finishes at the front?
  13. Simple answer... No. I doubt there will be any actors in until Easter Weekend now...
  14. That video is very good, yes. However, I doubt it would be feasible.The talking at the beginning is good. However, I do prefer TP's SAW dialouge. Bit more orginal and can be used for a great storyline.I much prefer the swinging blades to the nails. Much scarier, then the nails underneath is so much better.As for that MCBR, it is very slow, which reduces capacity, etc. Yes, it could be sped up, but then it would take away the feel of it. The spinning blades would have to be so far away that it would be pointless (or have them made out of rubber and ruin the effect).The lift hill is a great idea. The whole emerging from the building is good.Also, I guess the sounds you would hear from the building would be loud (like with real SAW), which would still spoil everything.As for the 'dip' in the dive loop, I guess nothing can be filled in there because of close proximity to CCR amogst other reasons?

    Look, everyone, just lay off Theme Park bloke. He has made a mistake and yes, he does sometimes do stupid posts. Just get over it. Perhaps being more polite and giving more hints on what to do to avoid stupid posts rather than just having a go at him all the time is a better thing...Anyway, I don't want a Tomb Blaster style ride at Thorpe. It doesn't fit in with the park's target audience and the space required for it could be put to much better use. I just really want a decent dark ride for the park. (In some ways, I find it a shame that we've got SAW now. I would have much prefered a bigger pyramid for X and just have a SAW themed ride totally indoors (like a long version of th indoor section). Anyway, I guess I shouldn't moan about SAW too much...)
  16. I don't think they are stickers on the back, they felt much more like a sign.
  17. The body still shoots very little water. What happened today at the bottom of the lift hill was there was the "Game Over" bit, then another countdown from 5 to 0, then you go up.Another spoilt effect was the timer as you pass Billy only saying 0, not 00:00:00:00.
  18. Saw opened just after 10. It reached a maximum of 2h 30min. Stealth reahed just over an hour, Inferno looked a good 60-70 minutes, Colossus was nearly full, major flats were recahing 45 minutes to an hour. Today's Ride CountSAW x2Loggers x1Teacups x1Rumba x1Fish x2Quantum x1Slammer x1Stealth x1
  19. I didn't see twos let on through SRQ. I honestly much prefer it to Fastrack.SRQ = WinFastrack = Fail
  20. I don't want CC to be developed much further. The park have said themselves have said they aren't focusing on themed areas that much, so developing the area would surely mean there would hardly be any 'Canadian' feel to it. Okay, the park might want to focus of theming more, but not area theming. Anything added to CC would more be a bad thing to a good thing, unless the park make it have a Canada type feeling or change the theme all together (which I don't want to happen). I could see the Fungle spot being taken over be CC, but I'd much rather that be taken over by a new land all together.
  21. Heard of a ride called Air?
  22. If you seriously thought SAW was going to be the world's scariest coaster, then you must have brain damage...
  23. What if we put it next to SAW? :P
  24. Actors will be in the queue line at their best (thorughout the entire queue in and outside) at summer and FN. There may also be some sort of acting presence inside during Easter and Bank Holidays. Honestly, I find the squeaking adds to the ride. When going to the ride area, seeing the spinning blades and hearing the car squeak as it goes down just scares people to death.
