  1. Icon and Helix didn't open with seat belts either. I hope against hope that Hyperia doesn't get them at any point.. Trains look gorgeous. Can't wait.
  2. Thank god we were spared the higher capacity crowd pleasing B&M hyper ey
  3. With ride reliability being as bad as it is at the moment, it means every day at Chessington is kinda gonna suck this year. I personally think it's unacceptable for any major ride to be closed if it's actually mechanically fit to open. It tells of a failing theme park.
  4. Probably because the majority of Merlin rides do hit their target opening dates. Whether they are ready to go is questionable but actually, they generally have the ride open.
  5. I love it when Jack comes back every year or so to complain about Fastrack at Thorpe. It's like when Steve posts every now and then to tell us how **** Merlin are. It's like a comfort blanket.
  6. The park need to decide whether they prioritise the main season or the winter season. If they want to do both, the engineering team need to be expanded. They also said a week or so ago that some rides like Rattlesnake and Griffons Galleon will not be open on off-peak days. Poor decision as Rattlesnake seemed to be one of the few rides that was running well over the weekend. Merlin theme parks really test my patience at times. The general expectation at a theme park is to go and rides will be running. At Merlin it's currently a gamble if anything is open on time or for at least half the day.

    Word on the grape vine is that there's been enough comments about 'vibrations' on one train in particular for them to be taking precautions. The 'vibration' is worse the further back you go. I personally can't help people are being over sensitive though. Aside from the last corner where the train oddly shuffles, the rest of the ride is graceful, intense and smooth. It seems a bit over the top to me but maybe Towers are just being cautious and doing any work they can now before the Easter holidays.

    That's pretty much all the eye does. It's given life by the claws around the eye moving up and down like its in anger. There was already some dead pixels so hopefully its an easyish fix. I was very excited for the return of Nemesis and I'm very happy that it's already running incredibly well, pretty much picking up where the old OG left off. I was concerned it might run slow but it isn't. I think it's a success and the energy around Nemesis was electrifying. Managed 6 rides including a front row and a back row and I'm happy.
  9. Either The Swarm or Dragons Fury for me

    OH WE ARE SO BACK.
  11. I quite liked 2001, the park felt full of energy, at the start of its development cycle. Such an exciting time to visit.
  12. It's really not that deep.

    I think I made a logo like that for my A level graphic design project in 2008.
  14. I don't think anyone on this forum cares to be honest.
  15. But what if it were to return?
  16. I'd say reporting posts you don't like should see a result such as that members spam but...
  17. I blame Taron for all this anti trim behaviour.
  18. The Smiler air time hills hate you right now.

    They'll call it Nemesis Inferno Reborn Vengeance just to really screw with us.
  20. Mark9 replied to Dan9's topic in UK Attractions
    I'll be calling it Reborn just like how I call Nemesis Inferno, Inferno.
  21. I'd rather it opened later in the season and not rushed for opening day.
  22. Ooh that's good, it's been a major bug bear of mine for years.
  23. Hyperias will be more a sea of vloggers and people talking about lateral G's and whip.
