Wicker Man
Well given that the ride didn't open when it was meant to, guests are pretty annoyed that some people who do videos on YouTube got to go on it. Just to kinda stem the flow of anger and annoyance because it ended up closed for safety reasons when normal people were allowed to visit. But maybe I'm just considerate.

Towers probably should've put a media embargo on those attending last night as a precaution for the weather issues... But then the YouTubers couldn't show off how amazing they are...

Alton Towers General Discussion
I do feel sorry for them if it doesn't open tomorrow, you can plan for everything but then a late curveball can throw all that effort in the bin... I hope that any goons visiting behave if it is shut all day...

Annual Pass Day - Weather
Watch how it'll be like nothing down South and Towers will be under 10ft of snow now...

To be fair, Billund just hid the warehouse in such a location that was hidden from pathways, it's not technically themed all the way around (and the queue is awful)...- Legoland
Definitely a Madhouse, LOOK AT THE PLANS! Good shout, will be the highest throughput in the park too... Do wish the warehouse wasn't so bloody obvious though and there was at least some looking into how better to hide it through location, rather than a simple plonk in the middle of the park...- Silver Dollar City
What a weird cred...- Hyperia Speculation and Construction Thread
Thorpe darlings, since you will be reading this, if you're going to get a RMC, please get a proper one; the one track variant whilst looks cool, think of the horrible throughputs given the SINGLE SEATER CARS...- The Smiler
Most Towers platform staff (well, Blivvy mostly) seem to at least assist with grabbing bags in order to speed things up a bit, I'd be surprised if Smiler wasn't the same...- Blackpool Pleasure Beach
What a mess of track, j'adore!- The Smiler
Depends if they've got the third train running this year...- Efteling
The Python retrack is done! I love their themed hi-vis jackets- Liseberg
Continuing the trend of curvy creds:- Energylandia

Swarm's bag drop was one of the most awful park experiences ever...- Tomb Blaster
I think it's sad that park staff feel like they have to make a ride so awful just so it can actually be fixed up... Like, that's no way to run a park...- The Smiler
It's never gonna be running 5 ever again, we'll be lucky if it ever runs 4 on most days...- Wicker Man

To be fair, it does look great as an overall product; lessons seemingly learnt from previous projects going utterly tits up is a positive... Saying it's as good as Megaphobia is however, not particularly so... But think everyone knew that the layout in of itself was going to be bang average and a waste of potential...- Wicker Man
- Merlin Entertainments
Wonder how many Japanese Spider crabs contributed to that total...- The Walking Dead: The Ride - Speculation and 'Construction'
Knightmare is more fun to ride than half the stuff at Thorpe too...- Wicker Man
We're still waiting for that surely? Also that's not the ride entrance for Wodan, since the queue starts in a random wooden shack... All for Merlin bashing, but let's do that when they actually deserve it...- The Walking Dead: The Ride - Speculation and 'Construction'
Jordan works for Thorpe anyway, you see her name crop up a lot in the Trip Advisor responses... Think she's been learning PR off that Morwenna lass who used to work at Towers (remember THOSE stunts?) - Legoland
