  1. ^^ I would mind, I would much rather them at least try something new rather than get a ride that would give an experience in between Colossus and Nemesis Inferno, it'd be pointless beyond belief. Not only that, they just don't add much to the experience whatsoever. There good rides of course, 99% of B&M's are, just that the floorless concept adds nothing more. (In my opinion at least.)With Saw, I wish they had done the whole ride like the first dark ride section, with basically a big ghost train kind of set up. Not particularly fast or tall, just a fast/twisty ghost train kind of thing running in to various traps and escaping by various methods.
  2. Ha Really does sound like you guys had a fantastic day
  3. Ah ha Thanks Benin, sounds like my trip a few weeks ago. They were doing that loading procedure then but I assumed it was down to it being quiet, maybe not.It really was hot today and I bet those AP refills are amazing when it's like that
  4. Queue's, ride count etc ?And do you mean the Jeep around the Explorers Gate? If so that's been there since the start of the season when the entrance was re-done
  5. Yeah I remember it being more "bumpy" when it opened, is it rough as in you bang your head now or... ?
  6. To be honest it was rough when it opened, to the point where a lot of people I've been with refuse to ride it. I can only imagine what it's like now if it's worse. To be honest, something needs to be done if it really is as rough as everyone is talking about.

    You can even see details such as the themed lanterns throughout the queue
  8. James6 replied to Skunky's topic in UK Attractions
    These aren't from Runaway Train, these are from the back of Ramases.Control BoxAnd the horse that used to be the centre piece of the ride.In both you can see the queueline is in good condition. Actually looks like a "good" queue as it wrapped around the ride in a lot of greenery as well as a decent view of other rides, would have loved to at least have tried Rodeo. Much clearer view of the area from on-board RT but never taken pictures of it.
  9. Ah, great tips, thanks ;)Looks like it's an absolute must to get to Crush's first

    I have a school project at the moment where I have to make a video around a poem but it only has to be linked very loosely, I was wondering if anyone had any reccomendations for a good, free music and/or video editing software ? Planning on using a lil' park music

    Ugh... they need to realise there is a limit between when something is unsafe and just guest stupidity/lack of common sense.
  12. James6 replied to Sheepie's topic in UK Attractions
    Are there any copies of the previous announcements? And why were they changed ?
  13. Thanks for everyone responses, :oVery interesting
  14. James6 replied to Dan9's topic in UK Attractions
    I must say on my last trip just over a week ago, sadly I heard no area music or tunnel effects. :oHopefully next time At least there re-adding all these great little atmospheric touches back to the areas.
  15. Thought this for ages, but only now remembered to ask :oWhy does Nemesis Inferno have 7 rows? Seems that adding just one more row would have been such an easy way to improve capacity.Is there an actual explanation ?
  16. See I like Mexicana, I think the Wild West theme itself should definitely be kept, just a spruce up and a new name :oI would also put Transylvania into this mix, and Pirates Cove... and LoTD if we're going by areas that don't fit the parks brand. To be honest a lot of the park needs decent sized spruce ups.
  17. James6 replied to Phill's topic in Nonsense
    Ugh... that is all.
  18. Extremely interesting mix of documentary/interviews here on the new Wild Asia. Really interesting, reccomend a watch http://www.coasterforce.com/index.php?categoryid=66&p13_sectionid=12&p13_fileid=645What do we think the lands that are being talked about are ?
  19. Just realised the Runaway Train music is used in the current Mcdonalds advert

    Indeed, had a 2 hour humanities exam today, and done so much revision for that, so tired of revision yet got a biology exam on Friday!
  21. James6 replied to Phill's topic in Nonsense
    Ahh that's what I should be doing

    *James6 dislikes how quiet the forum is tonight*
  23. Would love to join but unlikely, at least at the moment :(Have fun at Blackgang Chine, been there before It's unique to say the least :oHave a great trip.
  24. I'm afraid, pineapple on Pizza is where it's at
  25. James6 replied to AltonThorpe's topic in UK Attractions
    Especially if the queue's were worse than Thorpe's...But anyway, lets say the park is open 10-6 which is common in the summer. There's 8 hours, I find it hard to believe that the queue's were THAT bad.
