That's mad. I don't even recall RAP being a thing on the Blue Light day I went to.

@Cal that's an incredible bargain, however I'm a fake fan and am MAP-less!

No bargain 2 day stay in non FN's October for me and my pal next year then

Do you reckon they'll bother to finish all the coaster boarding videos for those flash new TV screens they had installed for 2024? Splashdown on Hyperia - it'll be cleaned up and never turned back on (similar to the Tidal flame effect). Their number 1 priority has to be, and surely will be, finishing off the Hyperia plaza. More landscaping and plants, and edge fencing to stop it being a queue jumpers paradise (and also prevent aforementioned plants being trodden all over) As @Inferno said - a rename of Vibes is well overdue. Just don't know what to believe anymore.

If an Easter Egg is a put up in a forest and no one understands it correctly, is it still a Easter Egg?

....and everything open at 10.30, bar Saw The Ride but some could say that's a blessing.

Towers appears to be absolutely shocking today. Glad I haven't bothered to visit this year to be honest...

Selling Fasttrack when the queue is 240 minutes is just turning a problem into an even bigger problem.

Thanks for the in-depth review JoshC Thorpe Park Fan. Have to say.... I don't really feel too bad about not doing Fright Nights this year. I think I did the same thing when Trailers was new and then went the next year when SG was new so the effort and expense was worthwhile I know this is unlikely to change, and keep repeating myself, but the £10 a maze fee I just can't entertain when every FN seems to be busy now as there are purposefully no "quiet days" meaning the likelihood of a "busy" run through in a massive group is always a risk. Plus I still feel burned by paying out for all the mazes last year, and nearly not getting them all done (by mere minutes). Impressed that Lucifer's Lair is evidently so good when it's not an upcharge. Bit of a shame there's no Death's Doors either this year, that was a fun - free - addition.

MCDONALDS VAN. Just watched the Deadbeat POV on TPM Twi....X - hmmmm. Visually it looks very impressive. But.... to me... it's giving Doom Town with a bit of Cellar: Imprisoned at the end. I remember seeing Survival Games on TOWIE Preview Night for the first time and thinking.... yep, can't wait to give that a go, that looks fantastic and intense. Deadbeat... not so much to be honest. Be interesting to see the reviews.

Exactly this - very odd, considering the ride does seem to get faster as the day goes on....? Odd.

2, 3 and 6 are definitely in them.

I feel the fault of this incident lies firmly with @JoshC. as he did not visit Guest Services to air his concerns 2 days ago. Fair play for the prediction Josh, I thought I was good with my not subtle hints back in the day that DBGT was going to be themed around a train way before anyone knew a thing Hideous timing, Press Night coming right up - those who were miffed that Hyperia wasn't completely in the dark will now get their wish as the thing ain't gonna be running for a while. At least they should get a repeat customer discount with the crane. Realistically what do we think? Closed for 3-4 days and then 1 train ops for a while? Nightmare stuff. The park closed dates 14-16th October will be handy. Jokes and nastyness aside - I feel lucky to have ridden the thing 7 times, considering I'm not local (Portsmouth) and the absolute stress-fest that was having June 11th pre-booked and having to decide whether to change the date or not to June 12th for the rumoured Opening Day 2.0. Oh, and in those 7 times - no front row, so forts and prayers xox (Got a Row 10 though, ridiculous). Absolutely love Hyperia, but it shouldn't be this stressful hun. It appears to have valleyed in the same place as before, so didn't make it over the M3 Ejector Loop.

Stealth rolled back yesterday for attention, I saw.

Agreed - can't sing the praises of the Hyperia ride ops enough, the whole team were ON IT when I visited a few weeks ago (as they were on re-opening day when I visited). They will surely have to install proper fencing at the edges at the very least as it's a queue jumper's dream at the moment... I would imagine they'll add some more planting over closed season (Spoiler alert: trees tend to die if you plant them in blistering heat and then don't water them). Not really an excuse, but - what queue IS any good at Thorpe? You could say the Swarm I suppose, but the TVs have been off for ages (and fixed recently, then off again)... Stealth queue is pleasant for the views I guess?! My views on the splashdown - it'll go the same way as the return of the Tidal Wave fire effect...
