Should they have announced it? Nothing has ever been confirmed as to whether or not there will be at least anything new next year, let alone a flat... Besides, considering how the flat ride line up already exists at the park, it's something that they really don't need to improve upon that much... Aside from a Huss Top Spin of course...

Money has been no object? Someone needs to mention this to Towers so those ingenious people who have improved it so much this year can do whatever the hell they want to the finale... Although the cynic in me sees 'improvement' as 'refurb the broken effects'...

INVERT ALL THE RIDES! Of course, being pedantic (as per usual) the only reason it can have inversions is cos it's not a 'true' wooden coaster... Bloody hybrids, I'd sooooo much rather a GCI (or several) turn up over here before one of these... Especially as this will not help the "Wooden coasters look unsafe" viewpoint...

And kids can then climb all over the netting instead...

If they did, they would've given me a smooth ride...

The bolded section is the main reason here... What makes more sense to the park? Fulfilling the basic H&S requirements that are a result of the investigations from both the park and the executive is of course the first priority, but do they desperately need to theme it right now, or reopen the ride considering the 'summer' period has turned up... Whilst I don't hold my breath that it will later be rethemed, at least it looks better than Saw's god-awful random chainlink prison queueline... More Punjabi prison than Guantanamo Bay... The park priorities change these days... Aesthetics cost a lot and would take longer to install... Is that worth keeping a popular ride shut for even longer over summer? Safety SHOULD be the priority over everything else, otherwise who would want to go to an unsafe park? Especially a family based park... It doesn't look great, but it's a necessary evil for the park to operate the ride... And knowing enthusiasts if they were spending longer to sort this out we'd be complaining that the ride isn't open...

Pfft, terrible excuses really, call yourself an enthusiast? etc, etc...

ENNIS!

Distinct lack of Krake and Raptor bears though... And a Nemesis bear... Must try harder...

MIND... BLOWN...

Would be better going off when the riders are going through the helix bit tbh... MUST TRY HARDER THORPE!!! Yes I'm being sarcastic, in a way, I do think it would work better potentially going off through the helix, but I doubt H&S would agree with me... Just hope they can keep it operational with the rest of the effects..

Probably only to block off Sunken Garden, otherwise it doesn't need one...

Excited that Amy and Rory are gonna be gone for good... Seriously, that'll be the series high point...

I'd go with the Rita thing, a la Fury/Spinball when they attempt to maim guests...

2 golds in 2 minutes Support Gibbons in the Judo as well! EDIT - DAT CYCLING! Shame about the DQ for the girls but the lads showed everyone how it's done with a world record gold... Been a good day overall..

So Ted It's quite good, fairly amusing without going toooooooooooooooo far down the line of awfulness (something which Seth MacFarlane's shows are guilty of on a regular basis)... Decent cameos abounded and was a decent overall film, with heart behind the weed smoking...

It could (and has) happened on ANY Intamin Accelerator... However, this incidents are EXTREMELY RARE OCCURANCES and as such do not require constant fretting as the parks will naturally move to prevent these incidents from happening/preventing guest harm as much as possible...

Probably due to Saw's headbanging...

It's steel track, a hybrid if you will... There's pics of it earlier in the topic...

Confirmation of the layout including the DOUBLE BARREL ROLL FINALE! Sure it'll get some people uber excited...

To be fair to them though, the judges gave the Ukraines a failed dismount (or whatever it was), so it would've been unfair on Japan to lose out for the same thing... Unlucky for us to have lost out a silver, but oh wells...

Problem is that for me, it's too similar to Zafari, granted that's not technically on park, but surely there's a plethora of other potential names? It doesn't have to be short or quirky really, and this name to me just doesn't sound good... Hell just put Safari or Rally in it and then think up something... This is almost Cedar Fair naming style territory it's that bad imo...
