  1. When Gerstlauer came over to do up the ride a month or two back, all the effects went out of sync and they are not sure why. (only by what iv been told, my guess is they were not re-synced back to the ride when the computers sped up dispatch)

    I will take this time and conclude your talking about Stealth. They were trying their upmost hardest to get it open and is scheduled to open today, tomorrow or monday. they had about 3/4 lorries around the winch room! You cant conclude this and that about THORPE PARK!
  3. Tim its not really a zero G roll, A) you can feel yourself pulling G's and zero G's go up into the G roll.Its a barrel roll!
  4. I think the LED board note was a great touch to SAW - the ride today! "Sorry for any delays we are nursing SAW - the ride because of the temperature change in the autumn " ( or something along those lines"

    Yes its about 10 degrees out and people will WANT to go on Tidal Wave?
  6. Ricky replied to treeis's topic in General Discussion
    Text my mate Carl earlier, SAW - the ride's queue was apparently 150 minutes ( 2 and a half hours) I do hope it isn't like that tomorrow!
  7. The smoke being discussed can't get you wet, the mist in the tunnel can but you can see that from outside
  8. I was thinking that myself! Yes, SAW is "good" this year and this year only!
  9. Rich it is used EVERYDAY at 4.
  10. Its around 5ish everyday
  11. I haven't a clue if anybody has heard it yet, but its a park wide announcement, its Billy the puppet basically announcing THORPE PARK FRIGHT NIGHTS, I don't remember the whole thing but the ending is " welcome to THORPE PARK FRIGHT NIGHTS...."
  12. The best feature, through my eyes, is the loop, as it now has smoke puffing out underneath it, and when it swoops through the loop takes it all with it and it looks just sexy!
  13. Allegedly, they wont do any REAL changes until peak times, at this point I believe police officers and other types of actors will be running around the plaza/queue just like on the John Lewis night.Apparently there is even going to be an actor acting like John Kramer!
  14. I hate to say you may very well be wrong there Paul, Ewan is taking extra priority in inferno and I think he will make sure its consistent and running too its full potential.
  15. I have done some asking about and apparently it was just not busy enough to bother, with the queue being averaged 30 seconds to a minute people are not paying attention long enough.
  16. Ricky replied to Dan_Rush's topic in General Discussion
    There isnt much, the bag room and control box is the only themed bits.
  17. Here you go, no fire in this one I'm afraid!
  18. Can I be a w!@$%£ and ask that I have a different text for my name I want to stand out... even though 99% of the time you wont see the badge
  19. Ricky replied to Phill's topic in Nonsense
    Does anyone think La Roux knows she looks like a man?
  20. Not at the moment, I think they are going to be there at the end of the month, during half term etc when its at peak of FRIGHT NIGHTS
  21. It seriously ruined my day! the fact yesterday there was fire and smoke everywhere and today was just like, nothing.
  22. When they advertise SAW - the ride comes alive they should MAKE IT COME ALIVE! They cant just stop it because its dead! if this was the case I would certainly march on up to guest services and complain SAW- their ride comes alive is a big pile of S*@!
  23. Obviously Ewan had help from the engineers! no way in hell could he do all this in about 2 days worth of work on his own that pipe is about 25+ meters long!
  24. Ricky replied to treeis's topic in General Discussion
    Yeh, SAW - the ride was walk on nearly all day, and from when I got there there was no queue! Everything was walk-on I love early days in FN, could you imagine if it was prebook only!? do you think that would put numbers even lower? As some people wouldn't know and be rejected
  25. today was abysmal!, 2 actors which were gone by 6! smoke off, flames off, the ride just lost its coming alive event completely, I'm not sure what went wrong! Maybe it wasn't busy enough??
