What do you do in the Backstage tour?

It could be so staff could walk through maybe or it simply doesn't work, not too sure though but I've noticed this too.

So the Smiler and Thirteen are currently closed, not a good day for Alton - http://ridetimes.co.uk/

Why would it?

On ride times it says oblivion is closed, guessing they've closed it due to the smiler?

It says on their website But for some reason they seem to be keeping rumba rapids open all night, and rocky express stayed open till about 6:10 as no one was going on it, so the operator was sitting in there doing nothing.

What even are these parts? Just checked ride times, it's closed and probably will be the next couple of days

My review of Sunday the 27th INCLUDES SPOILERS MBV Been both ways now as went on it 2 weeks ago. Thought the tunnel way was allot better, seemed longer plus the air bag thing was quite cool. A lot of actors in there but I don't like how there is no end to it? You just sort of walk out. I suppose they could of also made it a bit longer. The cupboards you got locked in was a good idea to add time. 8.5/10 Cabin in the woods Went on this maze twice, had to fast track it the second time because it had an hour and a half que and had to do other mazes. Didn't find the control room so was a bit disappointed . Was a great maze as there was actors everywhere, there was even 3 in 1 room! The bit that really got me is that 3d room, and an actor like blended in and just came out of no where haha. The second time I went on it though they were letting far to many people in there at once, trying to increase the throughput and there was just people everywhere, spoiled it really. I guess the second time you also know where the actors are going to jump out at you but was keen to find the control room, but I didn't First time=9/10 Seccond time= 6/10 BWP We started queing for this around 5 to 6 and the que want all the way around loggers and we qued from about where rockys express was. They said it was going to about an hour but the que moved really quick and we got on around 20 past 6. Really good the fact that you don't have to que very long. There was about 5 actors in the whole thing including 2 in the shed at the end. It was very predictable where the actors were going to be in my opinion, good for kids I guess but even for them theirs not enough actors! 4/10 Saw Alive First time I've been on this maze since 2011 and it was amazing! Can't really remember the last time I went on it but I think it has much improved, fast tracked this one because it also had a 90 min que but was definitely worth the 5 quid. The actors seemed to be picking on my cousin alot, at the beggining they made her click a button then send her to the back and later on they made her let go of me and she had to go like by herself for abit. It was packed with actors and all the actors were really good! 9.2/10 Asylum Didn't get round to doing it on Sunday, purely because it had a long que and it's not my favorite, did it 2 weeks before though and it was alright I guess. Theirs no like jumps in this maze because you can see them. The only bit I really enjoy is the ending when you get chased out. 7/10 Overall though it was a really good day even though it busy, coasters around an hour and a half but died down when the mazes opened, rides around 30mins, mazes around an hour and a half but what made the day really good was being stuck on loggers leap, that was alot of fun. Got given free fast tracks for that as well.

What's happening with the water on this at the moment, 1 min you look at it it's got no water running down it, the next it does, and the next it's only got a little bit?

Has anyone got the fright nights ride announcements?

It is definitely starting to show its age

Haha I was stuck on that, when a ride breaks and doesn't re open, do the staff get to go home or what?

Were you operating it when it broke down on Sunday?

I have never been to winter wonderland but I'll join the chat

Have fun!P Probably quite busy, it's the holidays

Didn't you get to go in the maze again?

Has the swarm still not had a full day of downtime?

A very serious accident in Disneyland Paris today on the Pirates of the Caribbean ride, he was trapped between a platform and a boat. The child had lost his balance and fallen overboard. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2480448/Boy-5-fighting-life-accident-ride-Disneyland-Paris.html

I personally think that it will be quite busy, but what I can recommend is to get there for when it opens and go straight to Colossus, then saw as allot of people still go the other way. You should be able to get on both of them straight away. Once the mazes open the coaster ques will definitely die down. You will be able to at least do all the rides once.

Ughhhhh that's so annoying! I tried that! But it wouldn't open so I assumed it was a staff door of some sort, thats so annoying!

Really enjoyed Colossus on Sunday. First of all in the morning they were running two trains. Which must have been the first time this year I've seen it running 2 trains in the morning . Next, I rode it twice and both times I found it incredibly smooth, even my friends agreed with me! Maybe they have done some work on one of the trains because it wasn't was on 2 trains the while day 2 weeks before. Anyway I also noticed that in the que line they were playing this song - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QYEC4TZsy-Y Anyone know why?

Yeah it was really dark, but you could still see a little, I didn't really enjoy it, well I don't enjoy it anyway. The effects at the end were turned off and it wasn't the normal rumba music, which made it even more dull.

Oh right fair enough, On Sunday they had torches on them though

Sorry for double post but does anyone know if it re opened yesterday?
