You may be my hero for showing me how to deal with CoasterJamie's bizarre posts Just say no

They're not suggesting adding a spinning car to the back of Blue Fire, they're testing the viability and ridability of spinning cars on Mack megacoasters Calm your hatred

We should have a 'SBNO' forum. Lots popping up now-a-days

So I returned yesterday from visiting a friend studying in Dublin, and I dragged her to Tayto. My day was fairly shocking for many reasons but I can't comment on it fully until I give them a chance to redeem themselves by responding to my complaints appropriately So I'll just skip the whole park and talk about the credit: Really enjoyable. If you're looking for an airtime machine or something relentless then you will be disappointed. It's got a fair bit of airtime (especially on the back; you get a lot of air coming off the lift hill ). The overbanked turn, which they define as an 'inversion' on their website, is very forced. It does not require the banking and although there's a little hang time it feels unnecessary and weird; clearly put there just for the Europe's first inverting wooden coaster (?) title. Wodan was the last woodie I rode and I have it in my head that they are all relentless from start to finish ripping round the track; this was a little like that to begin with but has moments of calm and slow on top of hills towards the end which isn't necessarily bad, just a comparison point. Basically it was fun, and talking to a barman in a local pub it was what the park really needed Should you make the trip across the pond just to ride it? Unless you're a credit whoring idiot, no. I do recommend visiting Dublin, I had a wonderful weekend, but do not go across the Irish sea just to go to this park.

Cannot attend sadly

I worked at a historical London visitor attraction over the summer and knew next to nothing about it. I just sold tickets and earned money.

Sometimes you have to realise that getting the last train of the year on Stealth is, in the nicest way possible, a really ridiculous thing to care about even by enthusiast standards.

I cannot re-itterate more what others have said If you're looking to are truly scared then try face it alone or another more 'extreme' event If you want to enjoy your time then it takes some effort from you; don't enter a maze straight faced looking to be 'above' the scares they provide If I went on any ride like that I would not enjoy it at all - I have to get into the mood of having a good time

They filmed a fair bit in Watford and my friends met them at a pub quiz! So I was aware

They knew who you were Therefore not a normal run-through Face it alone shows what Thorpe's actors are capable of however this isn't normal like in Sub-species JordanLuke's point is not valid (usually the case) Lets continue
