Screens come rolled up, that would be for something that needs removing regularly such as a ride car. A robot arm perhaps.

I love slammer because of the free fall and the weightless sensation you get when its at full speed. Everyone else's reaction on the ride is also great entertainment. By no means is the last of its kind a reason to stay. The reason I think it should stay is because of the ride experience. The only issues its very much a Marmite ride. You either love slammer or hate it.

The manufacture is unknown and at the moment very hard to work. I don't mind it being Simworx. After all I wouldn't mind a RCX RoboCoaster G2.

They have been reused. The episode deep breath the clockwork robots reappeared in Victorian London seeking body parts.

Sundays are always better.

Only ip relation I can think of would be the clock work robots from doctor who which seek body parts. Saying that I don't think it will be doctor who. I think this doesn't have an IP.

They are so uncomfortable if you don't get the seat just right. First time on a stand up was just me trying to stop the pain the whole way round. If it wasn't for there being no queue I wouldnt have bothered with a 2nd go.
I think the future for them is the floorless conversion. Stand ups don't attract people any more and people which do ride them always say that they are uncomfortable.

Interestingly the smiler is not listed under the x sector on the scarefest map.

Slammer has been working fine. It's the best ride there and should stay. Who doesn't enjoy the full throttle rotating freefall experience.

I know what you meant however I think that for rides with inversions they will have restraints like banshee.
A flying coaster with a half loop is an interesting idea however having played with the concept in no limits on multiple occasions it's very hard to get the g-force at the bottom of the loop to be surviveable. It needs a very gradual curve which means it needs more hight which means more speed so a more gradual curve. It is possible just difficult to get right. Then there is the issue of falling objects from the train. It would need a net in a very odd location.

The new inverts keep the vests. No stand up should ever be made again. The fact more than one existed should be shameful for B&M.
-
'The Smiler' and 'Smashing' in the same sentence... that best not be intentional
They are not in the same sentence, there is a full stop before smashing.

Well for the foreseeable future I am happy then. I would quite like to see a server with RnR written on the side of it on fire but for the time being the thought of it not being used is good.
-
Got any evidence to show that RnR is dead?
-
RnR was never using an app, that would have cost them too much money to develop a very simple app for the operating systems of phones. Instead they are just using a website to deal with requests which at the moment is still up.
An app would have been way superior to the system they are currently using.
According to thorpes Twitter RnR is not running over fright nights.

An RMC is family friendly????? They don't look family friendly to me.
-
Stealth doesn't need anything, it's fine how it is and any changes would bring in very few people compared to cost.
A multilaunch could be a good addition if done right. However I don't think it should be there next investment. They really need something which is more family friendly. An airtime machine is what they need. Something with no inversions so youngsters will be willing to ride it.

I'm concerned you rate the flume so highly.

Yes, it's called class.
-
One person not going to Alton would almost halve the number of people in the park.
-
This is unlikely to be a coaster. It's very hard to get track through walls. Also the fact there is no footers for a coaster.
-
Are they replacing the launch system to be B&M's own version hence the new trains or is this quite simply them replacing the trains?

For the record I don't think they are getting a robocoaster.
