    ^Nah, that top picture is a lot older than this year... And please... X-Sector's theme barely exists anymore, it's a very run-down area and needs refreshing, but not this way of course....

    Colossus isn't ratchet... Same thing for the other Eurofighters, Stealth and Vampire, which also use the hydraulic method...And quite frankly if anyone is stupid enough to even think of undoing the seatbelt mid-ride should anything in the unlikely happen, they deserve to perish...
  3. Well, at least the music is quite awesome....http://www.imascore.com/en/offizieller-krake-soundtrackSigh... A trick... Missed... It's actually rather depressing and considering how much 'worse' I find SheiKra and Griffon in comparison to Oblivion in terms of the actual dropping... It doesn't bode well...Even if they fix it later on in the year (like I've heard), that doesn't excuse them messing it up for opening... Especially as any fixing won't happen till close season...

    ^Keep winning please...Urgh... yesterday was dire... If Palace play like that for the last 4 games we'll be down... Simple as... No fight, no desire, and not helped by a ref who allowed the players to be bullied to sin...

    Well since I haven't signed one I can moan about it then :)Besides, surely with heights being checked at the entrance and batch this shouldn't be a problem? Why a kid should have to have their height checked 3 times (even with a bloody wristband) in a queue is rather stupid...Also yeah, 3 trains... OMFG!

    Hydraulics are redundant? Erm... No...And no, when re-checks occur, they are not focusing on the belts... What a silly notion that is... Re-checks are for when the restraints themselves may not be down enough to be 'locked' according to the ride system, the seat-belts are just an extra feature...And some lap bars DO feature seat-belts... Many of the Intamin hypers, gigas and early Acceleratos ALL feature seat-belts are part of added safety features due to accidents occurring on them... So often they are a necessity and not a stupid thing...It's generally a massive case of "What If?"... I would rather parks be safety minded... Seat-belts do indeed affect dispatch times, but really, for the sake of guest safety (as a whole), they are quite frankly warranted...
  10. There's a massive cage turnstyle thing along the walk... And is usually manned at the start of the day to allow people in...
  11. It's unfinished...
  12. Who cares about condoms, where are the bears?!!!!!!!!

    The RoomSPOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOON!10/10An actual review will appear tomorrow sometime... Bear with please...
  14. Benin replied to Mark9's topic in Nonsense
  15. That's another £13 (ish, dunno what they are in Euros), Merlin will get out of me...
  16. Benin replied to Dan_Rush's topic in General Discussion
    Yeah, I'm gonna pay £2 for a normal Durex just because I'm cool...Oh wait... (This isn't just for Thorpe here, Towers' ones as well... Surely this would be high up on the "How to make girls/guys go away in 5 seconds" list?)
  17. I love all the theming around the drop...Apart from the mouth... Just... I wanna know WHY it's not surrounding the track... Because that was the main feature of each and every piece of advertisement from the start, and now... Cast to the side like unwanted ham... :)Still looking forward to it mind, but just... That's a real annoying niggle...
  18. :)All this for a kiddie coaster <3

    Rich is letting his team down I tell ya...
  20. Benin replied to Rich's topic in UK Attractions
    Why has NO-ONE mentioned that Paultons got a gate figure of 11'000 the other week?!!!!!!!AMAZING for the park... Well done...
  21. No idea, since I've only been once, in June...Easter holidays could well have a say in the matter though... But as Chessie wasn't busy, asking the opinion of anyone on here isn't definitely not accurate...
  22. HOLY CRAP! That wave is.... HIGH! :)But the mouth... It so blatently is meant to be in the way of the track... WHY is it not Heide? WHY?!!!!
  23. I hope it hasn't been, otherwise major negative points go to Heide for failing...
  24. Zeus is by far the busiest, but also the Log Flume, Grand Splatch, Transdemonium and of course Oxygenarium can all receive long queues of doom...Aside from that, only other major ride is Goudrix... But I'd aim for Zeus first before anything else...Take in the awesome shows and Madhouse as well... Well worth it...
