Closed Rides
Strange decision to close the signature ride a week before the park closes, not happy as I like to get last train of the year!
-
Drayton Manor
That's fantastic, I'm glad Drayton are doing so well - and that they have the sense to extend when busy!

Fright Nights 2016
140 minutes for a walk in the woods?!

Your Thorpe Park
Fastrack for food stalls, parking and Fastrack?! Here's my 2016 plan: - WC16 opens. - Fastrack abolished.

Derren Brown's Ghost Train: Rise of the Demon
Mixed thoughts on the theme for this, it is an interesting concept but it does seem a little odd to theme a ride on an illusionist - although I'm sure all will become clear. Scruffy Dog seem capable of producing good theming when they are given the right budget/timescale, so lets hope they have.

Derren Brown's Ghost Train: Rise of the Demon
The psychological tagline being used again? It does sound promising though, and Derren Brown... Never saw that coming lol!
-
Air
I seem to remember it being on the ride list a few years ago (back when they categorised them as thrill and family rides rather than by area).
-
Air
Haha, I've always said that everyone is entitled to their own opinion!It is advertised on the map as a thrill ride I think, it is really more of a family ride but the height restriction is too high.

Air
Air as a thrill coaster sends me to sleep, but I don't think I would want a VR headset on it - unless it is optional.

Dreamland Margate
They have released some more photos, and I think it is safe to say that theming on this level has never been done at Thorpe (or any other UK park to be honest); (Pictures from Screamland Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/screamlanduk ) It looks like they have put a lot of effort into this event, really hope it pays off for them!

Fright Nights 2016
I hope they don't go down the route of maze charges, I disagree with any theme park attraction being pay-extra and I can't see it working for Thorpe like it does at Towers.

Fright Nights 2015
Anyone attending the preview evening was allowed to film, but on normal FN dates you are not, however in some ways it's good - for example, I'm glad someone filmed Asylum as provides a memory and people who never experienced it would be able to watch it. With that said, I don't condone filming in attractions without permission but on preview night it was allowed.

Project WC16 - New for 2016
Thorpe accidentally released something and then covered it up with Doctor Who. In all seriousness though, I'm not actually sure what the theme is, that is just my opinion on what happened earlier.

I haven't been, and yet they are still being deleted! Either that or the new attraction really is messing with our minds!

Mine are being deleted as well, not impressed as I don't think I have broken any forum rules.

Did this article ever get posted? Only just come across it: http://airgates.co.uk/2015/08/12/wc16-disappointing-and-offensive-says-thorpe-park-guinea-pig/

Project WC16 - New for 2016
This is such a cover up! Really hope it is Doctor Who though, maybe with the help of a certain someone for some of the effects or illusions? (Scruffy Dog of course...) No, several of my posts have been hidden which haven't been pictures.

I would appreciate some correspondence as to why my most recent posts were deleted without warning, they weren't breaking forum rules as far as I am aware. To be fair, did we have any way of knowing that it wasn't a deliberate publicity stunt? After all, wasn't a good idea to post it on a website accessible by the public if you want to keep it under wraps. This could all be a huge publicity stunt tbh!

Project WC16 - New for 2016
I would like an explanation as to why my posts were deleted, as far as I am aware they didn't break forum rules and I have had no correspondence as to why they have been taken off. Not like I bothered to type them or anything!
-
Project WC16 - New for 2016
They are now that they have seemingly accidentally revealed what the attraction is!
-
Project WC16 - New for 2016
Where have the posts gone? I'm sorry but if Thorpe posted that picture then they can't expect it to stay offline, it is their own fault for posting it.

Fright Nights 2016
It is closed all day. IMO it should be open in the morning, even if just for a couple of hours.
-
Fright Nights 2016
Asylum, Experiment 10, Cabin in the Woods, The Big Top (but hugely improved) and BWP with a new theme. That would be a great lineup IMO!
