    Apple products are generally crap...Just thought I'd throw that out there...
  2. Benin replied to Dan9's topic in UK Attractions
    HAH!Sorry... But no... Very few rides can even be placed near Nemesis, and Thirteen is NOT one of them... A good family coaster, but nothing special...Yeah, don't be like Keith...

    ^Queueline wise, it used to have the rotating tunnel, and the lifts...Aside from that, all I can remember really... Like many things, it had a budget crisis, and hence did not become the thing RMC wanted it to be...
  4. How 'entertaining'...Yeah, I didn't find it amusing in any way, shape or form... So yeah...You're a bit of a pillock aren't you... Know I wouldn't be happy if a complete stranger came over to me and sprayed me with crap...And saying your video on youtube has a high number of hits means nothing, since the average IQ level of youtubers is pretty low...

    Different people have different tastes? Who knew...I can easily tune out music (and indeed, could easily put on some of my own music and easily win the battle) but when it's being played at such a volume that the walls of my house are physically vibrating then it's obviously too loud...

    Hmmmm, neighbours have a very good bass system...Unfortunately, it's being used for r'n'b music, rather than music that's any good... Annoyed times...

    ^Surely it was 5 already considering helicopters were out t'other day?

    Funnily enough I've had the complete opposite, all the times I've ridden it in the dark and it's still boring...
  9. Benin replied to MikeC's topic in The Future
    I bet that it'll follow a train of being excessively over-hyped through a mixture of marketing and enthusiasts bigging it up to be the best thing in the world...Then we get a rough and unreliable ride that breaks down in it's first hour of operation...And it won't be what any enthusiast wanted...
  10. Benin replied to Garyy's topic in General Discussion
    Hot damn... Who'd thought that a water ride would be most popular on sunny days...
  11. Benin replied to MikeC's topic in The Future
    Yes, because EVERY X-car ride looks like Abismo... I only said X-car as a joke...
  12. Benin replied to MikeC's topic in The Future
    ^So it's gonna be an Intamin then?I KNEW there was gonna be something wrong with this... -_-In regards to me not thinking it looks like a 4-D drop, it's mainly my thinking of "Holy crap that's gonna hurt"... It starts with excessive hangtime, followed by half a pretzel loop, which after experiencing one on Tatsu a few years ago, is something I don't particularly want to repeat on a regular basis since it tried to rip my legs off... One hopes that the final design resembles at most 0% of that image...Just my two pence really...
  13. Benin replied to MikeC's topic in The Future
    Erm... 4-D drop that is not... In fact I see that and instantly see a Mauer Sohne X-Car drop... -_-Though granted because I cannot seem to enlarge the images it's hard for me to actually tell...

    Next time you go hand out the stuff you were on so we can all enjoy your experience on this piece of faeces...

    Ruthless German efficiency strikes again...
  16. Benin replied to MikeC's topic in The Future
    Since whenever a new coaster is planned Aquatrax is ALWAYS mentioned...
  17. Benin replied to MikeC's topic in The Future
    Intamin Aquatrax coaster will be the second one coming in...Simples...
  18. Benin replied to Sheepie's topic in UK Attractions
    Double post...Good news first, the snake is fine again... Horray...Now the bad news... And it's very bad... Possibly worse than the loading procedure going on atm...Basically it seems that the building has not been doing well with our current heat-wave, so they've been attempting to improve the situation, by ripping out the roof in certain sections and adding new fans... This causes epic problems to the atmosphere as it let's in massive amounts of sunlight into the building in 3 areas, top of boulder lift, start of mummy room and then mummy corridor... It's really obvious and quite bad... I can only hope that it's just something that's in the process of being sorted, since it looks horrendous in the areas...

    Yet... Did see a truck load of wood going through security gate in the morning

  21. Bloody boiling hot day today...Went with peep who was doing some filming so did no rides until about 1/2, but still managed to get on everything bar Kobra, which although now open again, is rather unshaded and this was NOT the weather to not be in the shade 90% of the time...Also held Charlie the 4 month old hand-reared meerkat <3Queues probs peaked slightly around 20 minutes, but god knows since the filming took up the entire morning...Ride Count Lorikeet Lagoon x1Falls x1Monkey x1Fury x2Tomb x1Bubbles x1Vamp x2Buccy x1Turmoil x1
  22. Benin replied to themeparkmad's topic in UK Attractions
    It came back up today...And later on got stuck in the other hill, but re-opened again...But it should be ok again... *touch wood*
  23. Benin replied to Sheepie's topic in UK Attractions
    I dunno what happened tbh, but he has two feet now...So yeah, now they just have to fix the entire piece of crap...
  24. Benin replied to Phill's topic in Nonsense
    OMG NO WAYZ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1111

    I do hope I'm not the only one who doesn't understand how Africa will not be in Africa tomorrow...
