  1. I'd take the queue times with a pinch of salt at the moment. They are still displaying X and FN mazes. Ask a member of staff.
  2. Guess they thought it worked well for DBGTROTD, so would do it again. Really, they should have come up with something new. As you said, what did happen to her? bit late to carry that on now as the ride has been announced. They do need to work on better marketing, the audio on the video was horrid
  3. Well it definitely comes across like that. It's very "Jordan jordan jordan" rather than "thorpe park thorpe park thorpe park". Using business news for personal gain. Thorpe park mentions: 2 Jordan mentions: 8 Possibly the worst marketing campaign ever and turned it into as you said, a press relase about a job promotion as some excellence manager... And what seems to be false advertising going by what people have been told to say. Like this ride is operational now....
  4. That'll be one problem they haven't thought of yet. If everyone has visited during the summer and done two mazes, whos going to pay the extra on FN days to do 3 attractions, compare to the previous year of 5. I feel like Thorpe have boarded the Walking Dead train a few years too late. re-theming an attraction on a dying IP that needs to be around for 5 years easy, is a bold move. Yeah, it'll be alright, people will like it, but feels like the park's direction has no GPS signal. The money could have been better used on a new flat to replace the lost attraction count when slammer went, and 60-70k or so spent on making X a better experience of 'light and sound'. No IP costs, actual identity for X and new ride instead of a re-theme. Of course, this is all subject to how much money there is to spend, but I think it's got to be around the "I'm a celeb" mark?
  5. Pop singers don't release 30min songs, so a very invalid comparison . Seeing as you can only get 74 mins of audio per CD, adding the full length tracks would be costly and lots of CDs. There are a few tracks that are from the same area, like the dome, so you won't be far off the full length track. If you want to hear the full length tracks, head to the park. As that is where they're intended to be heard.
  6. The extreme sounds more like they are going to be using actors that are able to scare people. As a maze, be it finished or not, won't make someone scare.
  7. Buggered? like drivers gone, amp, cabling or they just don't produce any sound? I'm sure they'll be able to work out which ones work and don't anyway... I mean, just because 5 speakers don't work doesn't mean they are all broken
  8. Theres actually currently 4 black speakers as well as the 4 Bose Freespace 360 mkll speakers. From what I remember, only 1 of the 4 black speakers don't work by the bunker. Never know, the subs could return...
  9. I wouldn't say the whole of the plaza is broken... and as for the dome audio level. That fluctuates daily, usually down to who's deciding what level is loud and quiet, as that can differ between people easily.
  10. If there is one thing you could change or add to a maze, what would it be?
  11. All you need now is the maze.
  12. you clearly didn't look at anything in the maze apart from the tunnel then Exactly. WDLN, Big Top and P15 just shows what Thorpe can do with the right people.
  13. genuine. True, unless you didn't look at the detail in cabin, you wouldnt have noticed.
  14. How did nobody spot the Cabin in the Woods Easter Eggs in Platform 15 O_o
  15. then quickly removed it's on the CD
  16. you should think about investing it into something, rather than burning it... Inferno's exists still
  17. The two things are completely different projects, and in no way would AMC or Loggers affect each other's future
  18. I would, you are just going by rumours and hearsay from people who think they know, or what their freind told them who knows someone who makes the decision on what IP's are used for Fright nights.. blah blah blah
  19. The Re-Imagened Re-Imagened Re-Imagened BigTop
  20. and the "agreements" also being rumors, creating those rumors
  21. The difference between Tulleys and FN is the multimillion pound company. Operations and Health and Safety are completely different between the two events, a lot of things that Tulley's do, Thorpe just couldn't do or get away with. E-stops are annoying, but some of the e-stops are for very valid reasons.
  22. Poor, fine. But the E-stops clearly we not operational reasons, but more guest related... something no one can stop. Big Top has this year gone 2 days without one e-stop. So, operational wise, its the best its been in the 3 years.
  23. I wouldnt say the three e-stops on big top in an hour would be bad operations. They could have all been for valid reasons, like guest action, security, first aid, which would be out of anyones control. 2015 Big Tops e-stops on the other hand, would have been classes as bad operations
