  1. Won't take two weeks to do... Will take a tad longer than that...
  2. Euro Montu of JOY!
  3. Nick Varney after the press release...
  4. Going East now it seems... Rather unmined resources atm so potential is around... Source
  5. Agree on the vile tent sentiment... Even if they bodged together a story to make it fit into the maze's theme... But even Universal use tents in some of their mazes, so it's not the be all or end all...
  6. MOVE OUT THE WAY! IT'S THE MOTHER FUDGING BIRTHDAY BOAT!
  7. Any MS Spinner is good with two people though...When it's battering me about, I couldn't care less how much it spins... Awful ride... I hope it burns...

    Nah, there's a massive difference between Tonnerre/Megaphobia/Beast/Thunderhead and a few others and Colossus...Mean Streak is the only wooden coaster worst than Colossus for roughness...Nothing wrong with a bit of rough, but Colossus goes over the line if you have any height on you...
  9. Benin replied to Adam J's topic in General Discussion
    Under-rated?It's rough as hell, you have to sit in specific seats to not have your legs crushed (if you're tall), it's aged poorly, the train design is terrible, the bars are perhaps the heaviest ones I've ever encountered...Last time I rode it I had a massive headache as a reward... Just have complete contempt towards that ride... I do to any ride where I have to sit in any particular row or seat to get a 'good' ride... That's not the mark of a good ride at all...It WAS good 9 years ago, but now, whilst not my least favourite coaster, it's certainly in the bottom half of my list...

    INCOMING!
  11. Aside from the Spider Crabs replacing the Rays this year.Worst decision ever in my opinion.

    Life is easier said than done though.And sometimes your friends can be your worst enemies... Food for thought.@Will, people are just strange. Especially ones who say you are friends but often it doesn't feel that way. Hard to say what to do because all I do is have unrequited rage or confusion over the whole deal.
  13. Thorpe need to do more groundwork than other parks anyway, otherwise the thing would sink and then what?It'll be open (for 5 minutes) in March as it's meant to... No need for twisted knickers...
  14. ^Pfft, last time I went, Augustus, Violet AND Veruca were all broken...It's kinda harmless, but it just looks worse and worse every time I go on it...

  16. I was just telling you why the height thing is slightly all over the place. Hills and valleys are everywhere in Dollywood. Hilliest park in the world it is.It does indeed share similarities with B&M Sit-Downs, but I'ven ever met one of them I didn't like. And for Dollywood it's hard to judge how much the ride will be hidden by trees until it gets built.It's all rather exciting for B&M this year. Great to see a ride type of their's become really popular in only two years of it's existence. And each one seems to bring it's own individual thing to the table. Brilliant.
  17. Dollywood and the surrounding area is like that... Imagine Towers, but bigger... And that's the thing...Height doesn't matter though in my eyes with this type though, so....
  18. Think the park have done similar before with Bluetooth... And with the Bar Reader apps on phones now, they could do anything really...
  19. If we go by announcements, it's not even the 1st B&M one... Six Flags properly trolled Dollywood here :PLooks AWESOME though... Dollywood is a beautiful park with a fantastic atmosphere, I can only imagine the sort of landscaping that will go with this ride... And the rustic theming to boot...More pics!Poor Thorpe
  20. I think you'll find that you do go upside down on Norwegien Loops...
  21. Colossus is gonna lose it's record...http://www.parkworld.be/en/seizoen-2012/hopi-hari-gaat-voor-inversie-record

    And then you realise you're listening to MCR...
  23. By 2015?So we get 3 years of a crap dead-end situation?Bad enough with Saw on it's opening year... Remind me to go on a dead day next year ok?N.B. Archive isn't new people, he's been here before
