  1. Where did this middle rows rule come from originally though? Never used before...
  2. Any park ruling that requires a platformer to have to ride in certain cases is STUPID...There's only one exception to this rule in Kennywood as the ride in question is so forceful you need that other person to cushion you... On a pirate ship? No...
  3. It's actually the worst park decision I've seen...I can take on the lack of air gates, but not allowing ACCOMPANIED children anywhere else on the boat bar the middle is ridiculous in every single level...Especially when I've seen numerous 0.9m kids sit in the back row and love every minute of it...
  4. That was even a rule?Lol...
  5. With THOSE sombreros? We highly doubted that we would be approved of...And yes, was an awesome day... Especially the gothic people we met <3

    Queues were... manageable, top was 80 for Kobra (though it didn't look it) and apparently that was the highest...Dunno for Vamp cos once did it in the morning that was it...
  7. Benin replied to Dan9's topic in UK Attractions
    Though first thing in the morning you should fill up the station a bit more just to get the queue moving...Just sommat I've noticed over the past few times...

    What does that have to do with Dragon Falls?Please start thinking about what you actually post and see if it makes actual relevance... Comparing a wait in a ride line and in a hospital is STUPID... They are completely different in every single way... On a plus note, the Falls queue now has lots of little proverb things... Only they're very, very amusing... I took a few pics of them today so can put them up here...
  9. Hehe, and I wonder what their reaction would be if they all had to stand behind the turnstiles at the gates causing a massive crush as the park opened...
  10. Did "we"...I think the past 3 years of operation care to disagree with your viewpoint...And breaking airgates is not the most idiotic thing staff at Chessie have done...
  11. Benin replied to Dan9's topic in UK Attractions
    No, it does NOT "need" to go... Why Chessie would get rid of their signature ride god knows... Stop being silly... And before you try using Corkscrew again to argue against that, it stopped being a signature ride in 1994...
  12. Because Tussauds are cheap and realised that the replacements for Samurai back then were awful and they thought any cheap ride they could get would be an improvement...Alas, Fabbri are USELESS...
  13. *Stretches out arms as wide as possible whilst saying "Thiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiis big..."*It varies each day depending on how busy guests think the park is and how much the park pushes the passes... Last Sunday the queues weren't too bad really for example Express Pass wise...

    I loved doing Karaoke yesterday for my birthday last night at the Croydon Reflex <3Now I get to look forward to Saturday's epic jaunt to Chessie... <3Life is loving it right now... Great week <3
  15. ^Cheers Mikey! This is where it all goes downhill now though
  16. Benin replied to Phill's topic in Nonsense
    Unexpected happy times love life <3
  17. Benin replied to Sheepie's topic in UK Attractions
    No, but it is above the Vamp station...
  18. Benin replied to Dan9's topic in UK Attractions
    Even the best dispatching in the world cannot prevent a 70 minute queue it seems on Sunday... Dread to think what it would be like on a busy day (15k+), but I don't blame the staff (unless a staff member broke the third train, in which case I do)...
  19. Benin replied to Phyciodes's topic in UK Attractions
    Peep's photo...
  20. Benin replied to Phyciodes's topic in UK Attractions
    Some Pop Candy dealie... Sommat like Dib-Dabs... Peep took a picture of it so hopefully he'll put that up when he can...
  21. Benin replied to Phyciodes's topic in UK Attractions
    Dragon Falls has new awesome looking signage...But it has a sponsor now, dunno how much it's thrown at you on the actual ride though...Shall have to see next time...
  22. Never? Even if the queue was like, 20 people?There's a definite cut-off point for it... If the queue reached the cave that's when I would make people come through regardless... Though it also depending on how I felt that day... Meh...
  23. Benin replied to Dan9's topic in UK Attractions
    1 - PR stunt, as it was Friday the 13th yesterday, a few weeks ago they announced Thirteen would not be open... Then on Thursday they said it would be renamed for the day...2 - See above...3 - Yes, yes the PR stunts are pathetic...
  24. Benin replied to Dan9's topic in UK Attractions
    OMG, THIRTEEN WON'T BE OPENING TOMORROW, BUT FOURTEEN WILL BE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!111
