I did have a terrifying experience on Rumba a few years back in the pouring rain in the dark... Couldn't see a thing and all it was around me and the rest of the boat was water... It's probably to do with that, akin to Towers closing the Flume at dusk due to not easily seeing a lot of the ride area...

Rocky Express not staying open till close? Not going now...

It's a shame no-one cares enough about the other Eurofighters to create a Smiler-esque Wiki list of all it's breakdowns... Or maybe just none of the other Eurofighters spend forever dead... To get a fuller picture we'd need to look at all of them, especially Mystery Mine due to it's complex nature of two lifts and a holding brake (and Fluch, though I dunno how that runs in busier seasons, I would assume more than 3 cars) as some examples... It is clear though that the Merlin ones have ground issues in common...

A decent exit system like it used to have? The excuses behind Vampire's loading/unloading policies are daft, since a few years back it never had such issues...

A family park can have thrill rides, look at Towers...

Is there ACTUALLY a difference between the term of "live action horror maze" and "scare maze"? They are one and the same...

I do find sepia filters terrifying...

Excuse me for finding it weird that they have a 'queueline checker' staffing role then ask guests to do that role for them... Or is this a PR style role in the same way that Chessie recently had a "animal sex advisor"? Why should I as a figurative guest on my day off work do someone else's job for them is my main question towards this... I do like the assumption that the other parks are completely ignoring incorrect queuetimes though because they don't have something like this... I just reckon it'll be used as much as the old anti-social behaviour hotline was quite simply... And as Mark said, the fickle nature of queues is such that flucuations need to be taken into account... If only they had a staff role suited for such a situation...

By making customers do their job for them?

The Danish Top 3 Lack of Lynet though

#hardcorephysics

Can't blame them with the culture over there, any form of touching would probably result in a lawsuit... Although not scary? Yeah right, plenty of jump scares in that, sometimes that's all you need... Though a lack of merman/unicorn is disappointing...

It is indeed on a slope... The only reason it stops is because Vekoma... For some reason so many of their rides do the constant stopping into the station, even Space Mountain does it...

Are enthusiasts the only ones who complain about it? Of course enthusiasts are the only ones to notice the knock-on effect poorly managed Fastrack can bring to the table, what a silly comment to make Marc...

A broken pixel at the BBC Salford Centre leads to amusing results...

According to some, nothing's going to happen coaster wise until 2015, mainly due to the park focusing on paying back on the hotel... Since that's done we should see the park begin to invest back in... So more Thomas Land!

I think the morning is the most active time only counts for Florida because HEAT... Hotel people I think do get a chance to ride Zufari out of park hours as well already... Can't remember tbh... They need a better ending mind... The Waterfall escape can stay but just have an evil voice or something in the cave... It makes zero sense... They can't expand it much further than they did though, goes up to the park boundary already... No hope of extension there...

This is hilarious, and equally, a big part of the problem across the parks... If something goes wrong, you usually get given Fastrack as a result... This doesn't help the situation any better, especially when you've literally just complained about Fastrack... There have to be better solutions to complaints than Fastrack...

What would actually have to be closed to access RMT? The Children's Zoo? Rattlesnake? Jumbos? Considering it's right on the access road you'd think it wouldn't be too difficult to access... Merlin hotels have some of the best themed accommodation? Not really, they're really kind of plain, especially the Holiday Inn, unless they're aiming to build a mass of themed rooms akin to Towers' Space Voyage stuff... Even so, I would personally prefer them focus on building up the park itself and give it an appropriate infrastructure worthy of an extended hotel... The Zoo is the main reason the park exists after alll...

Mack did a presentation recently at an enthusiast convention at the park, not saying it will be this, but it's possible to be a water coaster prototype... It'd be really crap if they said that a Splash Battle would be an unimaginable experience...

Chiapas is an Intamin therefore is discounted from being used in ride construction delay arguements for obvious reasons

I think if anyone rode this we'd have a winner...

Bet Lorikeet Lagoon/Monkey Walkthrough were both closed for lunch as well as they are every day... The Zoo portion is actually more for renovating two enclosures which isn't exactly something to ruin the day... Dunno what they're doing to RMT though, it's hard to judge since they've hidden it from view, but they've certainly repainted the track at some point... I get the feeling they're waiting till end of season for the real work to begin to be able to access the site with large vehicles more readily... Same no doubt for Falls... Clearly it's not all bad, when I went into the Lorikeets I was about to purchase some nectar and told by the staff member it was pointless to do so and save my money... Surely the sign of a person who is focused on not short-changing the guests... Difference to Legoland is that it didn't have years of Tussauds neglect to contend with, although they could do with renewing the entirity of Miniland to make it all work and look decent again... All the other complaints are across the board with Merlin really... All the parks have mention of letting too many people in and being too expensive and over-selling Fastrack, but in order to actually provide the parks a reason to reduce it, people need to stop the spending on these things to do so... As any business would do, find that max limit people will spend and then stay there... Though of course, only Chessie sell Fastrack for things like Seastorm and Tiny Truckers, so they need a slap around the face for that... I still think the hotel extension is pointless though when they could just return to that refurb plan from 2011 for that area... I want the giant aviary dammit!

You mean like DLP offering kids go free and increasing the adult prices? Dunno how these people are getting charged more though... That sounds rather dodgy...
