    It has had the odd it of downtime (which is normal) but it hasn't had its epic breakdown that it inevitably has at some point in the season.

    The Smiler

    People aren't excited for an inversion record.. you have seen how mental this ride looks right? Surely thats enough if a record doesn't whet your appetite.
  3. It's motor just won't start is all. The ride would be able to make it fine as it's pretty fast ride and not very trimmed.
  4. Every ride is different. Sonic Spinball was going in the snow and yet Fury was closed in just cold temperatures.
  5. Inferno is like the coaster equivalent of a best friend. Sure it has its faults but its always there, open and ready to go (aside from when its cold and it's forgotten its winter jacket) Inferno
  6. You'll have to use my exclusive knowledge or the fact it ran on the 4th April for Annual Pass holders for an AP day to get to the conclusion that the 4th is its official birthday
  7. Anyway... Happy 10th Birthday to Nemesis Inferno today.
  8. It's okay, you have over 900 days to get to grips with that. I have faith in Pixar
  9. You've got the next 20 years to get on the thing, I'm not bothered about a 2 month further wait when Nemesis and Oblivion are still roaring away in all their brilliance.
  10. Might go just for Wallace and Gromit tbh. Good old British sense of humour.
  11. Once cleared up some sick that looked like an egg. Another time this little lad had obviously had a good amount of chocolate, took a spin on Fury and well... the car was more brown then yellow when it returned.

    So lame that you had to ask Ryan to explain what he meant.
  13. Even if Thorpe did get this, it would be run so badly we'd all hate it. Like Vortex, Quantum, Zodiac and Samurai it would be completely neutered and would completely miss the point of the ride.

    Shame really, Colgate would really fit with the Smiler

    It's good to be sleep deprived?
  16. Hotel guests get ERT but normal guests do not. I believe its on rides like Vampire and Rattlesnake.
  17. So I've a few more thoughts here.. Find TPM pathetic? Setting examples? Thing is like you've said before, we aren't at school. When we have responded to requests you've had a go at us saying we aren't any fun and we treat you all like kids. It's like as long as you're aren't personally offended (or feel like you are being attacked) by something then its okay and fair game. I'd also like to know what other members bang on about Mer, I'd be intrigued by this. It can't be about Thorpe because obviously, being a Thorpe Park forum thats the logical thing that would be spoken about and it can't be about other members on the forum either. Funnily enough Mer, you haven't messaged me about anything thats going on. No-one has messaged me sparking outrage that Disney is now Thorpe Park. All this agreeing with you has amounted to nothing because no one is contacting us or reporting posts. If we live in a world of democracy, fairness, setting examples then why aren't people messaging the admins and mods about it. Or is it a case that you only talk to the ones you personally get on with because they are the ones more likely to agree with you.
  18. Mine was more of an observation then critique of members.
  19. Thats the third "Oh Merlin" I've read on the forums this morning.
  20. Skyway did indeed, it opened in 1986. Even when I operated Skyway in 2007 it was clearly on its last legs. How they can have a Safari skyway that avoids seeing a lot of the Zoo is beyond me. Mack can quite clearly extend it as they have done at Europa Park so really, the only thing stopping Chessington, is Chessington itself.

    X

    Replace X with four top spins.
  22. Families totally got confused there then if they are staying in a shed next to Thorpe.
  23. I've now apparently visited Thorpe Park Hollywood Studios, Thorpe Park Animal Kingdom and the Thorpe Park World resort Florida and yet you're the one that feels targeted. Where's the thought for me ey Mer, where's the thought for me at this difficult time? Take it as the joke that it is, nothing malicious in its intent, :-)
  24. See you say that but with Khan, you walk the perfect line of a thrilling roller coaster that has a bite to it. Baco for all intents and purposes is practically unridable.

    X

    I'm not really surprised that X isn't a totally different rude now. Anyone that thought it would transform the ride experience that much really had too high expectations.
