0 Marc Posted October 18, 2013 Report Share Posted October 18, 2013 Shows how quickly they start on Closed Season work, only 3 days after it closes! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 TPJames Posted October 18, 2013 Report Share Posted October 18, 2013 Is it cheaper than usual with only two rides then? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Matt 236 Posted October 18, 2013 Report Share Posted October 18, 2013 I don't think the price will change in terms of this event, however I hope Saw is on 8 cars all night and both rides are open all the time. Maybe they'll open the club earlier due to the lack of rides that night. I knew there would be a reduced lineup, but not like this, I expected X,swarm and stealth open if any rides would be open, but oh well. At least this means extensive closed season work will hopefully take place if the lineup this night is limited. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 Matt 236 Posted October 19, 2013 Report Share Posted October 19, 2013 Extensive to the degree of rides being stripped down (or their main components) and/or the urgency to receive an annual operating inspection, making sure the ride is safe enough for operations next year.

That happens every closed season anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Cal Posted October 21, 2013 Report Share Posted October 21, 2013 I don't understand how they are all of the other rides are unavailable within 3 days+Saw and Vortex have both had alot of downtime this year so don't understand why it's these 2 rides? Realistically they should have at least 5 things open. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Marc Posted October 21, 2013 Report Share Posted October 21, 2013 The majority of the people will be going for the club night rather than the rides so I can't see it being that much of an issue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Mitchada04 Posted October 21, 2013 Report Share Posted October 21, 2013 It'll also have to do with staffing the rides for just 3 hours. Saw and Vortex are on the same ride team (I think) so it's probably easier to get a bunch of staff in from that one team than a few from each.

0 pluk Posted October 21, 2013 Report Share Posted October 21, 2013 I'm not sure I think it's worth my while going all that way for what so few rides, even if I thought the club night was great. If the club night is as popular as it has been those two rides will have substantial queues. But then I live a long way away so I'm probably in the minority.

0 Matt 236 Posted October 21, 2013 Report Share Posted October 21, 2013 I live 30 minutes away from the park and currently don't see my worthwhile there based on what's there currently, but that's ok as I'm at a party on that night anyway.

0 Dodge2002 Posted October 24, 2013 Report Share Posted October 24, 2013 Why on earth would anyone in their right mind pay £15 to enter a club with a second rate sound system and lighting rig, pay £4.50 for drinks (and that is NOT an exaggeration) and no local amenities if there were no rides working too? If people really are going for the club night alone, they need to get out more... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
