No Ricky, evidently we only care about what Marc eats.

Oh trust me, this is unprecedented. McDonalds will now be added to the list. !And due to this admin error you have been awarded ten points.Daniel H - 10 points.

Are you suggesting Marc is slightly predictable?!Doesn't this game suggest that he clearly isn't!

Ok guys, something crazy has happened. As has been confirmed by facebook, tonight Marc was at Frankie and Bennies and the twynersh hungry Horse.If this happens tomorrow only 5 points will be awarded!

Ok guys, heres the deal. For anyone who has Marc on facebook, Marc is at one of four restraunts everyday. So to celebrate Marc's love of restraunts in the Thorpe Park area we're hopefully going to play a little game.On Selected days people can choose what restraunt Marc will visit and for whoever guesses correctly they win ten points. The ultimate winner will win something extra special at the TPM christmas meet.Here are the choices- Toby Carvery- Harvester- Frankie and Bennies- Twnersh 'Hungry Horse'- McDonalds in StainesOr you can go for the wildcard if you wish. This means Marc has left Chertsey and gone *gulp* somewhere else! Choose for tomorrow now.... if you dare!

And apart from the two Monte Makaya clones But we all love Colossus anyway.. don't we

Monte Makaya is defunct!For those not in the know, Monte Makaya is the 8 looping coaster design that Colossus was based on. Obviously, Colossus was slightly modified to fit in the extra two inversions. The park had a fatal accident on a different rollercoaster and the park was closed down. (So no, not Intamin related fluffs )

It's called Starry Night Ripper and surprise surprise, it's in China.http://www.rcdb.com/8983.htm

Something strange is going down at B&M headquarters. For a few years now their designs haven't really pushed the boundaries in the way they used to. Their hypers seemed to follow the same basic set up, the inverters nearly all clones. but for 2011 and into 2012 the rides are becoming something... more. First we have a new type of Dive Machine, probably the most boring of the new rides. Next is Parc Asterix's new addition, a far cry from its generic rides. X-Raptor is definitily something a lot of people are looking forward to. it's looking stunning.The next B&M for 2011 is a flyer. Now you may think that sounds a bit of a non-story but.. well I'll let the pictures do the talking..A vertical loop on a B&M flyer?!Nice to see B&M may have their mojo back...

I see many kids on Rameses these days. Although to be fair most are taller then you Ricky.

I actually adore all of this. It reminds me a lot of the Dragon Coasters entrance at Legoland but only a little bit more inventive. I really like the idea of Fury's second lift hill travelling over the castle wall so to speak, really awesome visual spectacle. I think it would suit a Medieval English village actually, you've already got the dragon and St George idea going through Land of the Dragons at the moment anyway.

It moved when Six Flags Astroworld closed down (named Skyswat.. yes original). It's still has a lot of problems in its new home though.

Edited for truth

As soon as theres violence in whats supposed to be a peaceful protest, your point becomes completely invalid imo.

I want to be a footballer! Oh bugger. Ah well, it's professional hairdresser and personal stylist for me then.

I don't think it's funny being told people find you the most annoying member, or the worst member on a forum. It's more humiliating then anything.As for Fanboy, is there any point, I can name the winners now. Marc would be biggest Thorpe fanboy (close tie with Ricky), Themeparkmad would win biggest Chessington fanboy etc

"May I have your attention please, I know we've only sent one train but Stealth is currently experiencing a technical problem and has ceased operation."*waits 20 minutes*"I'm afraid due to on-going problems, we unfortunately have to evacuate the queue line. Exit passes will be distributed. Don't blame me, blame Intamins incompetence as ride manufacturers"

I'm surprised that gerstlauer even give a toss about Thorpe and Chessington's target audience....

Does PBB get the burst of guests that Thorpe gets? It's been a while since I last went to Blackpool but I'd imagine there's a flow of people going in as opposed to Thorpe which peaks at 10 and very quickly dissipates.

It's not really a Thorpe issue as Rush has had a fantastic season with little to no downtime.Slammer is just one of those rides that doesn't work. The same ride type in America has been dogged with problems ever since it opened in 2003. The fact that Slammer went nearly a whole season without issues is testament to Thorpe's constant work on it. They deserve praise, not criticism.

Another example of B&M superiority me thinks.

Wait a second.... It had a storyline?!As for it being embarrassing. Yeah maybe, but it will develop over time and get better as Thorpe get an idea on what to do with it... If it comes back that is.

I'd actually say it's been one of it's best :-p

Not to sure whats going on with the glut of B&M's at the moment but if this turns out to be true then Europe is about to get its 6th B&M inverter at Parc Asterix.If this turns out to be true this will be the fourth B&M in two years which considering before Monster, the last B&M in Europe was Daemonen six years ago, was quite a long time ago.Still, I love B&M so I feel rather content :excl:In other news..EPIC WOODIE
