Coaster

It's weird that it's all gone quiet, if they were getting anything worthwhile then surely they'd be shouting about it?

Are we not getting anything else then? Teacups replacing Brer Rabbit -

Agreed, there were lots of touch ups and things having been cleaned that surprised me.

In my opinion, lecturers should be sympathetic and helpful as a standard part of their job - it's their job to help students etc, if they aren't prepared to do that then they shouldn't have that job.

New trains with lapbars would be amazing! The current trains are terrible, worst coaster trains I've seen I think.

Any chance of last year's music back?

Yeah it makes quite a loud rattle as the train leaves it.

Calypso BBQ was really good yesterday, the burgers were bigger and of a better quality than usual. No Canada Creek music playlist though!

That looks amazing, why did they have to ruin it?

I saw a few of you on park today, wussed out of saying hi though. :/

Yeah, but at least that's not in the same country.

One thing I thought about today - oh, what a difference not selling fastrack makes! Even on one train, the queues actually moved today! The park would be a much better place without that godforsaken system!

It'll probably save more disappointment if it's closed, it ran appallingly last season.

Possibly, they'd have to be careful not to copy Valhalla though.

We don't want another disaster/horror themed coaster, we've had two in a row now and it would be nice for them to use a different approach to their next coaster. A B&M hyper would be good in my opinion, I'd rather have a woodie though!

It wasn't busy at all today, if all rides had been open and on full capacity I doubt there would have been many queues at all.

Much better than I was expecting (from what I've seen, haven't seen it in person yet). It's a shame that they didn't rebuild the rockwork but I'm pleased with what we have got.

False advertising seems to happen in all UK parks, not really sure why.

Annual Pass Day - Saturday 15th March 2014 Time in Park: 12:00 - 5:00pm Rides Closed (all day): Slammer, Samurai, Zodiac. RIDECOUNT: The Swarm x5 Nemesis Inferno x4 Stealth x1 Colossus x1 X x1 (Love the changes!) Saw x1 Rumba Rapids x1 Very good day, there were a few issues but it's to be expected on the first day of the season. I avoided the flats as they were either running poorly or closed, Rush in particular looked rubbish. We experienced a hilarious breakdown on The Swarm, on the first break run it virtually ground to a halt and we were left hanging off the last corner (we were in row 2), it was quite funny! Saw was running absolutely dire, no better than it was at the end of last season. The park seemed to have a really good, relaxed atmosphere today. Music wise it could have been better though - I was rather hoping for the entrance music back! Also, the Canada Creek playlist wasn't playing (playing some random jungle sounds instead) so that area lacked the feel it usually has. WTTP radio also seemed to be less songs, more adverts so I'm not sure if they are being a bit stingy with the royalties? Overall it was a brilliant day even with the flaws, the park wasn't very busy and I was very impressed that they extended to 5pm.

Loved the changes in X! The lift hill laser and the laser tunnel were brilliant. I much preferred last year's music though, I hope they revert back to that.

Slammer was closed all day today. (Samurai and Zodiac were as well).

Why though when they already have their own themes?

Doh, I liked last year's music! (Only joking, it's great to see them keeping it up to date!)

I think that The Noise should only play where there otherwise wouldn't be any audio apart from special events.

Maybe it isn't always the case, I don't often queue for Colossus due to how slow it seems to move (even when it's running two trains). I do recall hearing the theme music at a high pitch though.
