The Swarm
Ooooo I'd laugh but then cry if they said all the rides were going backwards. But Ciall Kennett is probably referring to X. Upgrading rides is probably best for thorpe no planning permission unless they intend they intend to put new track down unlikely in the swarms case but X will probs be having a refurb. And Benin I find raptor crap compared to Swarm and the theming isn't as out there as swarm end of!!

The Smiler
I might of been a tad extreme with what I said about the name last night. I suppose I'm reversing my decision on the name. With the poster and all it fits quite well, I'm still abit unsure but I'm sure it will grow on me. As for the spider I love that they are including it. It will be awesome to weave through it . As for "The Inoculator" could it possibly be a renaming for Enterprise or Submission or the name for the spider or even the secret element.

The Smiler
I hate the name. I want something that sounds terrifying !!!!!!! Inoculator although I doubt is the name sounded better !
-
The Smiler
It's not as bad as "The Smiler"

The Smiler
If "The Inoculator" is the name then it's a name nobody guessed again and I for one, quite like it

2013 Changes
For me I just hope that its an X refurb or retheme. Turning the 2 back rows of swarm backwards is like making a beautiful sponge cake but for the filling the person uses vindaloo curry... its just going to tits up if they do that. If they want to add to swarm in any way I would want extra themeing on the island or with trains do it 4D like X2 or Eejanaika, only then id be happy with any Swarm changes. I'm just praying to the universe it is X cos it needs the love!!

Next Big Thing - 2016 Development ?
Why would they build that when they have Stealth which is a LAUNCHED coaster. That would be abit stupid but with the B&M and the woodie that would be better, with the unstable ground for the woodie, that was on the SAW: the ride site, it could be fine in other parts of the park.

Next Big Thing - 2016 Development ?
Maybe a duelling wooden coaster. It's gimmicky if that's what the general public want cos your racing another train. But you could have unique high airtime layouts. That could do really well for Thorpe I think.

Next Big Thing - 2016 Development ?
I would love a woodie me seeming the only woodies in the UK at the mo is megafobia and the one's in Blackpool from what I can remember. This is just an example of a GCI Woodie.

That was the year it opened so yes it's definitely working better. The disk was taken off for ease of maintenance which is sad but oh well.
