They're going for rather safe bets. And I don't blame them, don't wanna take the wrong turn during economic downturn do ya?
I don't mind - Drayton needs to continue being for younger families. Ben10 is their best addition in a while. Keep adding stuff like that!

It was put in during the chessington "LETS GO FOR KIDS" era. It's an awful bloody track. Adds no magic or excitement or build-up to the day.
A call to adventure is just pure amazeballs, particularly when compared to this crap.

My god you love arguing for the sake of arguing.
Go on that page, and click edit on the top right hand corner of any section you want. Then change it to "Bubbleworks was a piece of poo". It'll save.

Now, you see this track in person and my god it's just purely bloody mental. It's very difficult to follow it's direction!
Psychcoaster marketing or not, when people turn up and see this they'll be blown away. There's no chance of disappointment from guests ala thirteen.

Yeah, always link the image source (right click, copy image location) rather than using the URL. That generally sorts it.

Bloody hope not - why would it be? It's just a pre-fab 70s-80s style leisure centre building.

It's fantastic to see them work on it. Is this so they can tick tranny off refreshed/rethemed lands list?
Hopefully we'll see the back of imperial leather branding, at least on the outside of the building. Lazy gits are lazy.

As I said, it may be open every now and then to replace a certain ride. Apart from when it was on valley ERT.
I think I'd know this somehow..
ERT is currently run so everyone is spread out at the beginning of the day - you can choose to go to a certain area of the park, ride the open rides then wait for the other rides to open. Not really run so everyone rides every ERT ride before 10. Though whether it should be run like that is another thing..
Ripsaw and Blade could easily open for ERT, it's just noone would ride them. Rendering it pointless.
-
Spinball was down more than it was open, always being replaced by Rita. Hence rita becoming the ERT option in 2011.

Ahh okay, when I was there all those years ago they didn't offer them on either - even with the proper tills!
EDIT: The website still says excludes carts and stands, so don't expect it just take it as a treat if you do get it! http://www.legoland.co.uk/Plan/annualpass/Passholder-Perks/

It may have been opened on individual dates to cover for rides, unless the valley only ERT existed when air was around. Otherwise it hasn't been opened as it has issues.
Thirteens a weird one to have open, as it needs a minimum of 18 people per train for them to use it. So a lot of waiting around at the beginning of the day.
Duel was removed because it never opened on time, they struggle to get it open at 10 nowadays. Completely agree it's very bare though.
-
Air has never been listed on ERT, ever since it's opened it's not been on it.

Work wants 4 weeks notice.
I give them 2, at a push.

Most of it is the bog standard zamperla stuff isn't it?
Shame. I want pre-06 oakwood back.

Would go, but PBE.. nah.

Vampire has some boss speakers, and they're on the lighting rig on the offload platform.
As Mr Fish says, they're mainly on newer additions. Anything with decent sound systems (which weirdly includes seadragons - which just gets it all.. queue board and all).
-
Looking forward to riding Hex.. nothing but good things have been said about it.
They had Boss in to redo the entire audio system and bring it up to date, which have had certain aspects become much clearer (the witches curse has always been in the vault, just been muffled/quiet). Apparently they had a little bit more to do before march, so hopefully it'll pay off further. Want to go on park purely to ride that thing.
-
Why do they need the P.A announcements though? No other coaster does except maybe for re checks...
They don't need announcements. Literally. It's just an added "benefit" reminding people to brace themselves or whatever, incase injury occurs.
Basically they do it in the name of H&S, of which does not need to exist because it's obvious. To further prove this: Spinball, when changing to sonic, replaced their "heads back, hold tight!" announcement to a plain and simple "Let's get spinning!".
RMT at towers does the announcement purely for interaction.

Topspin, or not topspin?

That'll be it.
The other cycle of Rameses is pretty much the 2nd half of programme 8 of ripsaw, as shown here:
Contrary to what the guy says in the video, this is just one setting. Definitely my favourite cycle of ripsaw. It's rather good.
