Which park got you into rides?
Didney. Visiting legoland used to be an annual event for me and my fam when we were little, but after visiting disney and seeing everything I have wanted to go to theme parks everywhere all the time ever since.

Vortex
The cycles are much more balanced now so most of the time each side will have a couple swings at the top.

Fright Nights 2015
Saw's not going anywhere, its got some fresh new signs outside of its entrance and its pretty much the only permanent maze so they are sort of obliged to use it until the thing sinks or the lionsgate contract runs out.

Best dark ride
I did Maus a couple months after its opening and didnt think anything of it. From what I remember and what I've heard, it's improved dramatically since, all I remember was a nice queue line and screens, but apparently there is ALOT more then that now. Favourite dark ride is X [dont be triggerd]

The Smiler Incident 02/06/2015
Ian, ride operators don't even have access to the areas of the ride controls that are required for this sort of action. It would've been a TL or an engineer. At thorpe the uniforms are all practically the same for all the people who work on rides at all, and it was likely it might've been an engineer. The mistake you explain is just too clumsy to be true. Proximity sensors would've picked up the trains no matter where they are and put up an alert saying it was stuck in a certain section on a little diagram of the layout (normally a bit simplified). All the trains are highlighted on a rides layout if they are being actively used.

Chessington General Discussion
^ or like said above, not open at all. Something that american theme parks do alot. On the subject of vampire queue, the end of the tunnel represents approximately 90 minutes when the queue is fully extended. I wouldn't expect the first couple S bends to make the queue more then 2 hours or so if the queue was coming out of the entrance.

Hey! That sounds alot like my disclaimer. I copyrighted that.- Phantasialand
oooooo exciting stuff! So far there are just overbanks in terms of inversion looking things right? Looking at the layout you would expect it to have inversions but now I would be surprised if it had any!- TV programmes you hate
Impractical jokers is getting on my nerves. I just want to watch a fat guy say 'screw you guys, I'm going home' but I cant without watching 4 weirdos throw bananas at strangers.- New for 2016 - Park-Wide Improvements
The magic carpet has a lid on it and is now called jungle bus though.- Summer Nights
They've stopped doing the free tickets for MAP-P Holders but continue to sell them. Anyone know if this is simply because the 'event' has ended on the booking page or because they are just trying to get the money ones gone now?- TPM Cutest Couple

Can Chessington been thrown in there as an option or nah?- Doctor Oakwood Official Meet 2015
Gah I wish I got the time off work. Looks like the trip was buckets of fun. maybe next year I guess.- Thunder Storms
It's surprisingly common to be honest. Out of the last 3 thunder storms in my local area the water tower by our local hospital has been struck twice and it only stands at 50 ft.- If you could change your username, what would it be?
Some of us have pretty renowned usernames. I don't like to biggit myself up but on every single forum I'm on, I'm toofpikk. And that is crap. So here, I want to hear why you called yourself what you did, and if you could, would you change it, and why? Called myself toofpikk after trying to upload my first RCT3 video to youtube but couldn't think of an original name. I was using a cocktail stick to pick at plaque on my teeth and I thought that toothpick would be cool, but purposefully misspelt it so I knew I could get the username. I was like 10 or something. If I could change it now I'd change my name to noodle or skittles. Noodle because my favourite musician is the gituarist (and general instrument player besides drums and bass) for the gorillaz and her music is super kawaii. Skittles because I am obsessed with them. SO YOU GUYS. WHAT WOULD YOUR NAMES BE.- TPM Cutest Couple
