    I'm just looking forward to opening day when there are no new rides. I'm suddenly keen to find out what has become of the loggers tunnel.
  11. Yes, the 'house rules' were covered up by black sheets and you just got a bit of spiel about a haunted room that you were in, but then you just walked through the corridor to the next room.
  12. We're all far too keen.

    He was too focused on correcting you to understand the 'dream' of your post. Classic TPM.

    Saw with Saw. Ha. This was funny 4/5 years ago.
  17. Glad you're happy Fred!
  18. Well it can't be ANYTHING unless it's a new ride or a refurb of X so VENGEANCE IS DEFINITELY MOVING TO THORPE and being themed to THE SWARM. No. No. No. No. No. In my opinion anyway.
  19. Yes, it may be our job to get as many people as possible excited for the meet but we don't operate a wake up call system. If you arrange to go to the cinema with someone you can't expect them to phone you up an hour early to remind you to go, we shouldn't need to spoon feed you because you are an adult and can look after yourself.

    Yes that's very true! I hope Zierer like your idea.

    THORPE PARK is not getting a new ride for the 2013 season. I mean variations of rides are a possibility eg X turning forwards Swarm turning backwards. ;-)

    The capacity may be doubled but the throughput would not as it would take a long time loading both ends like on a booster. Basically, no.
  23. There was an announcement above all sections of the forum since the date was decided, this is pretty similar to a 'meet box'. Frankly we have a meet topic and if you're truly interested in coming then you should check those pages on the forum, there is no need to clog up the forum with more boxes. Those who were confirmed as coming were sent a personal reminder over PM with contact details and more. We opted to do the trip backwards because we were most looking forward to the dungeons at the end of the day, that's why you didn't see us.

    Intensity is nothing to do with height, as many members prefer Detonator to rides like Apocalypse or maybe Hurakan Condor in PortAventura which is over twice the height. It's all down to the manufacturer. Detonator is manufactured by Fabbri and instead of falling under gravity, it is forced downwards by 4 pistony type things at the top (pneumatics I think), whlilst Intamin drop towers just fall under gravity. Extremis is manufactured by ABC who have very little information on their website regarding how the ride works, but in short the intensity you feel has nothing to do with height.
  25. I can see your point, however I don' t see why you couldn't have set yourself a reminder? It has been in my calendar ever since I knew I could come so that way I didn't make other plans. This is lazieness on your part I'm afraid, there have been more reminders than previous years and I think the PM was the best form of reminder possible. Edit: The posts about there not being enough publicity for the meet have been moved to the dedicated topic here as suggested by Mer.
