  1. Attached. I believe this also still plays in the sea life centre at Chessington Nemesis Inferno - Loading 2007.mp3
  2. When did you go? I visited on the 23rd March and last Friday and the nemesis Inferno theme plays around the whole area (very loud at the entrance to queue) except for the one speaker in the cattle pen area. Surely it hasn't reverted back to the I'm a celeb music again when this was only just changed. The station was also playing dispatch music as well on both visits but with a new announcement over it that is just a mumble and cannot really be heard. I even uploaded a short clip of it playing at the entrance in my post a few posts back.
  3. Goes to show how it can be so different on a day to day basis. They were probably the best team in the park on Friday, even with a short queue mostly dispatching as the other train hit the start of the final set of brakes outside the station.
  4. I wouldn't say that. I came off bone dry on the two rides I had on Friday.
  5. They should just do what Adventure Island do and say something along the lines of closing between 6pm and 8pm, and then decide based on the numbers and weather.
  6. Thanks. I am off to the park Wednesday and it's forecast to be 20mph and westerly which I've heard is the direction that affects it the most.
  7. Does anybody know what maximum wind speed the big one tends to operate in?
  8. I 100% agree with you there. Ah exiting the park to the end of day theme used to be so atmospheric.
  9. Fair enough, just wasn't in use on both my rides and everytime I walked past. Strange how they only used it for a short period, doesn't seem to be much consistency.
  10. April fools jokes only apply until midday!
  11. Nope sorry, had a stream of people behind me. Have a look if you can next time you're at the park the shutter may well be open like today.
  12. May have been mentioned before, but today a shutter to DBGT was open directly opposite the x queueline fire exit, and there was what appeared to be a very thick grey metal track like structure? Any ideas?
  13. I hated the Detonator soundtrack last week (and still do) but annoyingly I started humming it after listening to it for 20 minutes in the queue!! X music extremely low in ride area, but louder in queue. WWTP radio has now been set to play in the Amity beach area and Depth Charge queue, with chart music now just at dome, bridge and entrance (playing alongside the Thorpe Video music - can't call it entrance music as it is only part of it! that plays).
  14. The Inferno fasttrack point has always been in operation for me (except on March school trips - off peak days). Oddly enough for the first time on a peak visit today the merge point wasn't being used. What was great about today was very minimal fasttrack sold and used, made queues move quicker, although there was an excessive number of people using RAP. Only the fast track unit near Depth Charge was open. Inferno two trains, Swarm 2 trains, Colossus obviously just the one train, X on 2 trains, making the queue painfully slow, Saw on 6, Stealth reduced to one half way through the day after an issue. Operations as such not bad today , just Inferno being very slow at loading and dispatching, I was in brake run for almost 2 minutes. Park generally not too busy with longest physical queue being Colossus at just over 40 minutes. Swarm was about a four train wait after 4:30. Saw was 5 minutes after 5:15pm.
  15. It was open the first few weeks. Must be waiting for a part if no work taking place.
  16. It's been like that virtually every peak day this season so far. The place is certainly getting the visitors these days despite having more regular issues.
  17. Sounds like a repeat of last year. Second train wasn't there for the first few months at all.
  18. Wasnt this down for over half of last season, maybe more? When it was fixed it lasted a few weeks before dying again. It was also stripped down completely at one point and again lasted a few days before dying again. Seriously think they need to give up on this particular top scan and think they should either replace it with a new model or a completely new ride.
  19. This video (and part 2) really shows how amazing this game will be, mainly in terms of theming. Take a look at this guys amazing work with buildings and rock work.
  20. Was on park between 10am and 2:30pm and no signs of it testing today.
  21. Well, animal sounds or Nemesis Inferno theme, both beat the painful short loop of the I'm a Celebrity theme thumping out of that speaker. Few seconds of the audio playing nice and loud at the entrance... Inferno Entrance.wmv
  22. I meant to edit my post once I got to the station. Unfortunately no music whatsoever in the station today.
  23. The Nemesis Inferno Music is now blasting out of most of Nemesis Inferno area including the entrance to the ride. Only exception is the speaker in the cattlepen part of queue playing animal sound effects.
