  1. This is good - it means I can go to one
  2. Sounds great. I want to go back to Paultons, it was my childhood park and the one that started my obsession me enjoying rides. A shame that it's quite expensive otherwise I would go back - I think I will one day though. Used to love the Cobra!
  3. Oh. That's even worse than with the screens then! Seriously though, they should rethink having that playing around the entire queue. Maybe just a section of it would be better (or just at the ride entrance) as it really does make 30 minutes feel much longer than it should. Generally I like queueline videos but The Swarm's one is so bland and annoying. Plus most other rides don't play the videos throughout the whole queue. On another note, it's a shame as well that the sound effect of The Swarm going through the church is off, as that was very effective when you were in the queue. Oh Thorpe...
  4. This ride is a year old! To have all their effects broken already is very poor. Speaks volumes about Thorpe's upkeep on effects. (Although I won't lie, I hope the TV screens are off tomorrow, they are very annoying and I'm sure most people in the queue would rather they did away with them). As for the other effects, fix them!
  5. Sounds good, I hope to enjoy this tomorrow. What other rides were open later?
  6. Starting a new park today! Can anyone help me out - I think I tampered with the game a few years ago when I didn't know how to add custom scenery and it doesn't save photos onto my computer when I take them on the game. I would love to be able to share some of my rides/parks on here, can anyone help me out? Much appreciated!
  7. Chessington is in a right state at the moment! I'm not talking about Dragon Falls or Runaway Train (although they do add to the equasion), but the whole park is in dire need of a lick of paint as it just looks run down and awful (Wild Asia and Zufari aside). Let's hope they concentrate on this over the next closed season.
  8. I actually thought that Zufari was quite good today - when I rode it in April there were hardly any animals at all!
  9. It's a B&M and they (well most of them) age brilliantly, some actually improve with age.
  10. Is the ride times page accurate? http://www.ridetimes.co.uk/ Seems strange for all the rides to be so quiet and for The Smiler to be at 40 minutes during school holidays.

    This Or That

    Peter Capaldi even though we haven't seen him in anything yet! Merlin (TV series) or Doctor Who?

    This Or That

    Nemesis. Scarefest or Fright Nights?
  13. ^ I agree with your comments about the baggage hold - it does need looking at.
  14. Banned for claiming that you are the God of coasters
  15. If you are talking about the game, you can pick it up for a fiver usually.
  16. Strange because on the opening times page Fright Nights is set to start on the 11th. http://www.thorpepark.com/plan-your-visit/opening-times.aspx I hope it does start a weekend earlier though - less time to wait! EDIT: Oops, double post! Sorry!

    Doctor Who

    I can imagine him being quite like Christopher Eccleston. Quite serious but with a funny side to his character as well.
  18. I know! It's awful, I liked Plane Crazy but won't step near a ride that's called "Tink's Flying School." It's ridiculous and a real shame. It was also noticable that there was hardly anyone going on the ride when I was there - Plane Crazy used to be quite busy.

    Doctor Who

    Good choice, never seen him in anything before but he just looks like a Doctor! (If you know what I mean)
  20. Coaster

    Doctor Who

    New doctor revealed today! Who's watching?
  21. Looks very nice and professional! Tell me though, how did you get the wingrider cars to work on the game? I couldn't get it to work!
  22. Coaster

    This Or That

    Dreamworks. Christopher Eccleston or David Tennant?
  23. I hope they keep Asylum, it's brilliant. If they do remove it, I hope they put it's queueline music to use somewhere else! As for Dead Silence, I have never seen the film but will do if it turns out to be a new maze at Thorpe.

    This Or That

    Vampire pre floorless trains (Never rode it with it's old trains but it looked so much better and I am told by people who did that it was) The Big One or Valhalla?
  25. I wasn't very impressed with it to be fair. Skull rock could have been great, but the indoor section was basically a trip through a warehouse. There were a few scenes, but the lack of fake ceiling or walls was a huge disappointment. I didn't actually ride anything else in the area, so I can't comment on that although it did look of a higher quality than Skull Rock.
