    This.People on TPM need to chill out a bit. There's constant bickering every single topic I go in these days and it sometimes reads like people are trying to suck the joy out of Tpm, and out of rides and rollercoasters. Which sort of defeats the point as theme parks are about fun. Is that because you're now on it.
  3. 1. Nemesis2. Dragons Fury3. Megafobia4. Grand National5. Oblivion6. Speed: No Limits7. Runaway Mine Train8. Detonator9. Hex10. Nemesis InfernoI found that far harder then I thought it would. Whilst we have a lot of original rides in the UK, I struggled to think of many that I thoroughly enjoy.

    I always find her songs tend to grow on you. I hated Pokerface, Bad Romance and Telephone when I first heard them..

    So with the news that a B&M is to open at Thorpe for 2012, lets discuss a ride that will be celebrating it's tenth birthday next year. Air, B&M's first flying rollercoaster opened in 2002 and is quite unlike any other ride in Europe. Swooping up and over Nemesis and with an emphasis on the thrill of flight does Air inspire you or do you hate it and have been put off flying ever since.For reference, French ride enthusiasts love it. But do you?!

  7. What a beautiful rollercoaster. There's some really note worthy rides opening this year actually, very impressed.As for your Merlin comment Benin, I get the feeling they already know how stupid the UK's GP are, look at fastrack or the countless haunted attractions they seem to have...
  8. And also:-
  9. /\ Agreed. It's not the OSR's on Saw that gives you the headache, its the ride itself.

    Channel 4 in under age drinking shocker!
  11. My most anticipated ride of the year now... and thats saying a lot. Agreed with Benin, it looks far more floaty then I thought it would. More of an Air then a Nemesis.
  12. B&M sleekness. I'm loving the colour of the train as well.
  13. Mark9 replied to Phill's topic in Nonsense
    More importantly, what were you drinking?
  14. I'd hit that...with a shovel.
  15. This could be the most painful ride in existance but it looks so gorgeous I could forgive it.
  16. Simply gorgeous. Loooks fantastic.

    Yes. no one ever noticed my fantastic fence painting at Toadies a couple of years back
  18. First time you made the "we deserve special treatment" comment it was kinda funny, now it just seems smug. And the reasons you listed are exactly the reasons the parks added the ride access pass in the first place. The old system was ridiculous with disabled riders waltzing onto every single ride, getting ride counts into the 40's whilst the guests in the queue line were lucky to get on 5 rides in the whole day because the disabled guests and their carers didn't know when to stop...I do agree however that Zodiac should be taken off the list. Seems an odd choice ride to put on there anyway. What rides are on the card out of interest..

    Pfft, whatever Jack, you are the past and you know it. As the winner of the best admin/mod of 2010 I wish him the best of luck and hope he enjoys the power of the banhammer.

    Fail.

    As the mods/admins don't seem to be able to organize this, shall we have a chat session on Monday evenings at say 7?
  22. I think thats one of your best posts Outfit. Chessington is stupidly under-rated and such a fantastic place to visit.
  23. 14 hours for staff..So assuming the staff can get to work on time and that the rides are all running and ready to go and that the enginners don't mind starting at 2 in the morning, thats a fantabulous idea. I'm sure Merlin wouldn't mind throwing money straight in the bin.
  24. Judging by target audience them, only idiots and traveller teenagers should go to Thorpe.

    Marc really isn't the right person to call on anything these days.
