Blame being put on the introduction of the $99 gold pass. I hope they have it in there T&C's as an event for next year with an add on fee. $99 does also seem very cheap for a park with this many roller-coasters.

Bad day for this park today, turning prebooks away, hopefully they have a good guest services.

Ah yes the life of an enthusiast, complains when a ride gets delayed and complains when the ride is not 100% finished.

Do you not think the park have health and safety teams?

And they do, but do you really think its sustainable to have a health and safety executive sit by the tunnel after every run through and deem it safe or unsafe. This argument getting stupid. If its annoyed you that much, go to Thorpe and get them to sort it.

But every day at every park someone somewhere is highly likely to get injured and need a trip to first aid, hence why the parks have medical teams. I would suggest if the unreported nail was such a big problem for your day, that you go to Guest services and report it they may even give you as a gift as a thankyou. Rest assured Merlin's number 1 priority is the health and safety of guests. If you don't think a Merlin themepark is a safe environment and would rather moan about it online than going to report it I would recommend not going. Perhaps next year we won't be able to go in a maze without first putting on a suit of cushions.

Looking forward to this!

I think the idea was to have a small skit every 20mins

Is the drop tower not a real investment. Looks heavily themed to me and perfect for Chessington bar capacity issues. Just because Chessington isn't getting an RMC anytime soon doesn't mean that they arn't going for a REAL investment.

People just always love o complain. Perhaps tie your shoelace next time with a double knot.

https://blooloop.com/features/roland-mack-70th-birthday-europa-park/ A great article on the Mack family, containing some interesting points as well: Themeparks are moving evermore into resorts with the opening of second gate attractions, if Rulantica works well expect more theme parks to follow Liseberg is going to build a hotel and a second park within the next few years. I assume a waterpark? “One ride I think would be a really perfect fit for us is the Time Traveler [Xtreme Spinning Coaster], which we sold to Silver Dollar City. It’s a fast ride, but I think it’s still a family ride. It has wonderful cars and a perfect track layout. In general, I would really like to have a ride like this in our park, but the waterpark was a big investment.” - Next rollercoaster for Europe perhaps or an update to Blue fire? Depending on the success of Rulantica which I'm sure will be fine. A direct train to the park at some point in the future.

Was good on Thursday night. Never done so many intense flips.

Will pop down in the afternoon

Myself and @Marc were on park last night. We didn't have any complaints of clientele. Was much busier for a Thursday with 1 train ops.

Going on Thursday, to have my Tulley's virginity taken, I hear there's some nurses who will be able too do that for me. Few questions: Will I be able to do all the mazes in the one night? Is there a best order for doing the mazes? Last year there were mentions of bounce back passes, how much are these? Is there a guest services so that I can get some compensation which I am entitled too if the ending for the new maze is not ready on my visit? I look forward to it.

Where is the e-stop hopefully the Disney employee responsible will be sanctioned.

But then what qualifies the maze as Intense... is it the fact that it has the most chainsaws ever seen in a Thorpe maze, combined with a crawl section. I saw multiple panic attacks happen on Sunday night + a man run back out the entrance door. Seems like it that's a fair evaluation of intense. But maybe perhaps not for you, maybe you shouldn't read in to Thorpe's marketing so much as remember saying a maze themed to Hill-Billies with chainsaws isn't going to sell as many tickets as Our most intense maze ever. So yeah just remember intensity can be measured in different ways and perhaps if Creek freak was around in the days of EX10 and Asylum you may of had a different opinion as age and exposure to scare attractions all play different roles.

Bit of both depending on group sizing. In the first room if the group is massive some will be sent down the tunnel straight away. However its very easy to be picked on during this maze, put in a corner and left for the rest of the group to go to leave you to do the maze single handed. I had 4 actors on me at one point shoving hair into my face etc.

You can't even be bothered to post in the fright nights spoilers thread and you already want a 2020 thread.

Opening day is going to be real cringe on this one when enthusiasts flock to the park to get a plus 1 credit. Hopefully it will have a rule that you need a child for use so its only for the right crowd.

For me it's the Brits.

Edited. Comment removed, not necessarily there are other previously banned forum members, who were users who are using it constantly.

Fright nights was much better tonight than on previews Friday. Creek freak was intense being split off and made to do the maze alone, which involved actors all over me and hair in my mouth. Also got my first kill operating the saw in the middle that was a cool interaction. I also saw a guy in a headlock, @Platform15fan this is why I guess they tell you not to film as well your phone could break! And I imagine your mates Iphone 3 must be worth a bit of top dollar nowadays so I would not recommend. People were running out and panic attacks were occurring so its clearly doing its job. Blair witch was vastly improved, its just a shame it took them 6 years to bring it too potential. Living nightmare is meh and weak with cool themeing. Boring same old same old. Last niggle is group sizing's, the queue is 10 mins, why not double the queue length and halve the group size to 10 so those in the group actually get a good experience, it shouldn't be a squash to get in Creeks door. Overall this years event is highly recommended on an off peak night.

Well it has to make back its investment
