I'll be visiting on the 26th if I remember correctly, and then possibly again a few days later, although I'm hoping to go to Alton's Scarefest that 2nd day as that was brilliant last year.Fingers crossed the queue's will be like the first times you reported Keith
-
Awesome, I'm going for the first time since 2003 this year and I've decided to go to this after giving up on Fright Nights. In my opinion, it is TOO busy to have a good time.And also Chessington's just better anyway

Ha, that day was one of the best of my life If only I could do it again! Wicked , did you see me walking around on that day? If so you should have said hello! :PActually then again you would have been working and probably would've gotten in trouble.

I hate queueing for Stealth in the main queue when fastrack is busy, Once they were doing almost one train of fastrack then one train main queue, it was diabolical.Edit: Sorry just realised how off-topic that was.I really can not wait to see how they jazz up Saw for Fright Nights
-
I would guess they'll be very very similar in terms of queue times etc.The only time throughout the whole of Fright Nights where the queue length will change is during half term where it will be even busier, that's what I would guess.

This looks fantastic and a huge well done to Ewan. He has made Nemesis Inferno a much better ride, a huge well done and thank you to him.Lets hope things like that pipe being fixed are done over the closed season and so it can be a more reliable affect next year!

Hey TPman, I see your getting a bit of a hard time at the moment. Some tips as I hate seeing newbies getting pulverised. Before you press that post button, check and then check again, spelling and that it makes sense! :-) Also something I think a lot of newbies should do, is just watch the forum for a few days to see how it works. Please contact me if you want any more tips etc, James

It is likely to have a similar layout as both the 8 and 10 looping models have the same basic layout, But as a layout view isn't on the site, until a park builds one, we won't know.

It still hasn't been confirmed that "Surrender" is it's name. If it is I will be dissapointed, I don't feel it has the impact it should like, Oblivion or Nemesis.Also, one spelt "won"... Are you kidding me?
-
No I find it very very unlikely that it'll become themed to a film.They've created, already, in my opinion too strong a unique feel around it. With the "Welcome to the Unkown" Posters and Leaflets. And now the "Surrender in March 2010"This is already making me more excited than the build up to Saw ever did. I can't wait to see what little tid-bit Alton release next!
-
I always remember Stealth at the Fright Nights 2005 and the track had a sort of running lights around the track and it looked unbelievable. I've always wondered why they changed it.
-
This is so exciting :oThat is some awesome concept art
-
I would much MUCH prefer Intamin anyway. B&M's do get very samey or are just very average rides. There "good" but that's it, nothing particularly unique or special about them.

I'm struggling with GCSE Spanish, they've decided to give my class, the top languages class in the year, a brand new teacher, as in this is her first year of teaching and she doesn't really have a clue. You would think they'd give us one of the experienced teachers instead of the year 7/8's!

Hmmm Iphone :PHalloween Hocus Pocus or THORPE PARK Fright Nights
-
Not a lot of operating, it was more of a see how the park is run.The operating of Fury was more for Video-ing purposes
-
Cereal100 minutes or 100 texts

Tea :POn Slammer, Starting going forwards or backwards?
-
I felt like I did!
-
The lap bar is similar to that on The Blade for example, there just there to stop you mucking around and don't really serve any purpose. It does also increase the realistic-ness for first timers who think that it must be real if they've got a lap bar.
-
Facebook, any day of the week!On Dragon's Fury or Spinball Whizzer, Start facing backwards or forwards?
-
It's the best non coaster ride in the park.It's got Excellent theming but I do wish the effects were maintained better as sometimes, you do get a disappointing ride, but it is absolutely brilliant and, after Oblivion it's my favourite ride to go on with first timers.
-
That's great to hear Sheepie, And I agree completely about the operator having to do announcements, some eery pre-recorded ones would be great and stop the awesome atmosphere being broken every time people have to load/unload.
