^ Sounds fair. I think it's a good idea, but not until it's executed properly without confusion. I won't be using it until then, which is fine

^ ... What? I don't understand your post.

Remember that if we do have another 3 or so years, we could have new coaster types on our doorstep! Although I somewhat agree, I think we have to put up with the fact that technology is changing, and if looping woodies are what come from it, I guess that's the way it goes

Shall we settle the family debate by simply saying we'll just have to wait and see?

^ My bet is that they will be free! You've just spend tonne on the Annual Pass, it would be criminal to charge you for mazes. But this is Merlin

Ah thank god. I got that link from ScreamScape, so they are to blame!

If they get a woodie, I guess they would include inversions. At least one. "Europe's first looping Wooden coaster" or "Most loops on a wooden coaster" ... compared to "The UK's first wooden coaster with really big hills!" Actually the steepest wooden coaster might be fun to market!

http://www.themeparks-uk.com/thorpe-park-guide/events/thorpe-park-fright-nights.html :L Is ThemeParks UK trustworthy? I wouldn't know, but if this is true, I'm sad.

^ Well, it wouldn't... Because of Colossus. The GP will see it and think, "Oh, it's Colossus but with less loops..." I agree, TPJames. My bet is on a RMC Woodie, Custom Intamin Mega coaster or a small B&M Hyper!

^ I guess you retract your point then? Hahaha. Also, I doubt they'd get a coaster like Khan. They have Colossus.

Like I said, evidence for that? Even so, I wouldn't say it has much impact at all, compared to a record-breaking or World's first ride or attraction.

Evidence for that? Why would they want it?

^ What is the point then? How would chasing that record help them? It would be useless to market, and only enthusiasts follow the standings.

^ And how many potential visitors regularly check the standings for that record?

Earlier in the forums? There was a discussion on different opening dates.

Thing is, if they tried to do a Spiderman style dark ride, it would be a budget Spiderman dark ride (compared to the original). Which is why after Sub Terra I doubt they will try to do a dark ride. They also have Hex! I dunno, I just can't imagine it. Saying that, I never imagined something like N:ST popping up there, so...

Bit late, dear. That's been posted a while ago I believe!

^^ They can't build any more islands as of yet, the water level is getting too high. Plus it's SO expensive. Still still have around Loggers Leap, where the Jungle Safari was, the new island next to Swarm, the Crash Pad site and even Neptune's Beach. They don't need to do much lake filling right now haha

Gatekeeper has an airtime hill, but apparently it isn't very effective anyways

How was Krake lazy? :L

Well we'll have to wait and see

I just wet myself... I love how it dives under the shop and it uses the terrain so well!

^ Do you mean the comment by 'Theme Park Media'? If so, that page is probably just a twelve year old being annoying tbh.

How is it like X-Flight? Yes it has the silly dive drop, but this has a pretzel loop thing!

It was announced today
