Woodrow Posted December 13, 2008 Report Share Posted December 13, 2008 Why is there random bits of amity cove splattered over that map?And how do they expect to accurately place rides, when there's only a tiny dot.What a crap map. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sidders Posted December 13, 2008 Report Share Posted December 13, 2008 And Tidal Wave look completely out of proportion to Stealth! But Woodrow, there's a bunch of grey blobs all over the map, but Amity Cove is the paler blue colour, so they aren't Amity Cove's blobs... And they've spelt Colossuswrong, so how can we be sure this is a trustable source?And yes, Theme Park bloke, we realise that Samurai is blocking off SAW. But, whether Thorpe realise... hmmmm.

Sorry for any offence. To be honest mate, I didn't really notice that Samurai really is cutting off SAW earlier when I posted, but now I see what you mean.And yes, you've offended me.

D4n Posted December 13, 2008 Report Share Posted December 13, 2008 I think t's an OK map, I shows exactly which area all the rdes are in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoshC. Posted December 13, 2008 Report Share Posted December 13, 2008 Considering it has been made for Wikipedia, the map is okay. It gives a rough guess where the rides are.Anyway, as for CC future, all I can say is: overload of chavs, loud, probably another new ride coming in in the next couple of years and no rethemed Samurai. (It is still sitting at the park.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sidders Posted December 14, 2008 Report Share Posted December 14, 2008 Doesn't mean it isn't going to leave. Samurai, when it was moving to Thorpe, left Chessington with just over a month of closed season left. It could be that Mondial are coming over here and tweaking it at the park, or it could be that Thorpe havn't sent it on it's way yet. Colossus and Slammer are under major maintainence atm and so maybe it isn't a priority yet.Sorry for offence caused, I'm in a mood atm. < See, I still care.

Mark9 Posted December 14, 2008 Report Share Posted December 14, 2008 Sorry Mr Hicks, that is WRONG.According to Sp's Samurai archive, it was finally removed from Chessington on the 12th November.Samurai Archive Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ste193 Posted March 12, 2009 Report Share Posted March 12, 2009 Will said: Lost City is actually a Greek themed zone, than opposed to people thinking it as some mayan/aztec zone.My friend works in Greek Hotdogs, a unit in Lost City. I asked him what has Greek got to do with the theme of LC and he said because LC is supposed to be a Ancient Greek/Atlantean City. Many thorpe park websites state LC to be an atlantean civilisation. My reasons are:1) Vortex has the roman/greek numbers2)Zodiac used to have the roman/greek letters3)Colossus was based after the definition: Something/someone of massive proportion I.e. Colossus Statue also a roman/greek word. Also has many greek references I.e medusa fountain and arcitecture.Most people probably think it's a mayan zone because when I looekd up on several websites they all stated the zone to have a mayan theme.

Will Posted April 2, 2009 Report Share Posted April 2, 2009 I think Canada Creek will be very well developed over the course of the next 5-10 years. We have:SlammerLogger's LeapRocky ExpressSamurai which is a bit of an odd-ride looking at it's location. I (imo) would like to see it fit in somewhere and I think that Thorpe ties up all the loose ends they have. Moving forward is not all about building new rides and coasters but it's also about updating exisiting ones.SAW is themed as an abandoned warehouse and does fit into Canada Creek, even though it is on its own island. Think about what will happen when the license does run out after the 10-year? period. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoshC. Posted April 2, 2009 Report Share Posted April 2, 2009 I don't want CC to be developed much further. The park have said themselves have said they aren't focusing on themed areas that much, so developing the area would surely mean there would hardly be any 'Canadian' feel to it. Okay, the park might want to focus of theming more, but not area theming. Anything added to CC would more be a bad thing to a good thing, unless the park make it have a Canada type feeling or change the theme all together (which I don't want to happen). I could see the Fungle spot being taken over be CC, but I'd much rather that be taken over by a new land all together. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whiteknuckle Posted April 2, 2009 Report Share Posted April 2, 2009 I don't mind what the future of CC is, although I do like it as it is. I find it's one of the quieter areas of the park, although now with Saw in the area it could get busier with people heading there from Calypso Quay, Amity ect.

FrightNights04 Posted August 29, 2013 Report Share Posted August 29, 2013 I think they should try and bring back the themed areas but re theme some of them! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
