  1. Thank you for repeating what I said a few posts back.
  2. I think those pictures on the Thorpe Park site are staff.

    Basically because of the flying position and the way the body is restrained, doing an inversion such as a dive-loop or a Vertical loop would probably kill all its riders. I've never done a pretzel loop but I have heard from a lot of people that they are very forceful elements.. and actually quite painful to go through.

    Is the answer, he cuts off one of his arms and some of his body fat.

    This is in relation to no ones ideas but it makes me so glad enthusiasts aren't in charge of Thorpe. Some of the ideas are just way to out there. But I like the imagination of some peoples thoughts.
  6. Your wish is our command, god you lot are fussy

    I'd say theres either someone (or a group of people) having a blatant joke at Thorpe Park fans expense or just a case of Chinese Whispers. Lest we forget the news that Samurai being rethemed for 2009 came from a well respected member and nothing came of that.

    It didn't happen. I belief Stealth has a lot of issues at the moment, however at this point just relax and prepare for a pleasurable experience, there is no cause for concern.As for the Stealth ride take-over, I presume if it's not open you guys will just do it on something else.

  11. Hey limecrusha1, welcome to our humble forums.(On a side note I added so many Colossus variants to the word filter and yet there's still ways that can be done of spelling it wrong )
  12. Here
  13. You can organize a meet on Sunday if you want but it won't be with the TPM admins (apart from Marc, he'll be there all week...).

    I'm here to make the first emotional post (lol)Rodeo was fantastic. I first rode it August 1999 and it instantly became a favourite. Dynamo and Breakdance No.1 were/are far better but Rodeo was always a special ride for me. Alex, me and several others got the last ride on it in 2004 and it's a ride I really miss. What really annoyed me about its removal is the way it wasn't really removed for ages, just left to rot on site and behind Mexciana. A bad end to one of Chessington's original rides. And one of the best rides it ever had. 2004 may have seen the addition of one of the UK's best rollercoasters but it also saw the removal of one of its best rides.
  19. Well I mentioned on SP, but you know whatever !
  20. That STOP sign was waiting to be put up on a wall/fence etc
  21. If you wanted to be majorly pedantic you could say they are riding it a maximum of 20 hours before everyone else gets the chance. I'd rather go when everything else (should) be open because otherwise its a waste of petrol for me
  22. Mark9 replied to Cringle's topic in The Forums
    Questions to Thorpe Park should start again after all the buzz around Saw has died down.We'd like to welcome back Cringle to TPM as admin. King Cringle, as he is otherwise known.
  23. FEAR THE CHAVS. THEY ARE EVERYWHERE!

    I think anyone who comes out at school is very very brave. I could never have said "oh by the way I don't just choose vanilla, I also want mint choc chip every now and then" because its something about the school environment that makes the whole coming out thing so hostile.I'd forgotten that this sort of thing still happens to be honest as every year at work and in social situations, whenever someone has asked me what I am, I tell them the truth and theres absolutely no problems at all. I even had a mini-scandal (ooh-err ) three years ago and the issue was never my sexuality, it was the people involved in it. So yeah, from experience, as people grow up they become more accepting of homosexuality. Unless your a right-winged, Daily Mail idiot who will never be won over because of their extreme stances....

    Dude that's awful. There's not much that can be said on your part as the damage has been done. There is only one positive now though and that as its all out, people will eventually be bored of that and move onto the next big scandal. And believe it or not, your life will get better from this point onwards.
