John Smith Posted May 6, 2009 Report Posted May 6, 2009 Slammer has only not been down twice in around 8 or 9 visits this season.Excellent. Quote
Dan9 Posted May 6, 2009 Report Posted May 6, 2009 Slammer has only not been down twice in around 8 or 9 visits this season.Excellent. Since Slammer re-opened for this year (on March 22nd), it's been shut for 9 days (7 of which were in the breakdown it just re-opened from). Did you just go a lot for Thrill Chill or something? Quote
Todge Posted May 6, 2009 Report Posted May 6, 2009 Then CCR.Good to see Slammer back up.then the whole of Canada creek blows up..Mwahahaha!And yes, good to see slammer up. Hopefully I can get to TP in time before its next accident. Quote
Sam P Posted May 6, 2009 Report Posted May 6, 2009 then the whole of Canada creek blows up..Mwahahaha!And yes, good to see slammer up. Hopefully I can get to TP in time before its next accident.Well could happen but I'm 99% sure it wont lol.I think that Slammer will be up for about 3 weeks before it is shut again. ( Just a prediction now I have cursed it ) Quote
Todge Posted May 6, 2009 Report Posted May 6, 2009 I think I speak for everyone when I post this (Dont hate on me, I was just bored) Quote
Garry Williams Posted May 6, 2009 Report Posted May 6, 2009 I didnt get on slammer in the end because I only managed to get on about half of the rides:(I think its because I decided to go on Saw twice which took up three hours of the day lol but it was worth it tbh Quote
sam 795 Posted May 6, 2009 Report Posted May 6, 2009 then the whole of Canada creek blows up..Mwahahaha!And yes, good to see slammer up. Hopefully I can get to TP in time before its next accident.no way,that would include saw-I dont want that blown to pieces!!!and what if samurai gets a retheme to cc-do you want that blown up too?

TimR Posted May 7, 2009 Report Posted May 7, 2009 no way,that would include saw-I dont want that blown to pieces!!!and what if samurai gets a retheme to cc-do you want that blown up too?Sam I think he was joking and SAW isn't actually in Canada Creek... Quote
John Smith Posted May 8, 2009 Report Posted May 8, 2009 Since Slammer re-opened for this year (on March 22nd), it's been shut for 9 days (7 of which were in the breakdown it just re-opened from). Did you just go a lot for Thrill Chill or something? It was closed for the first 10 days of the main season too was it not? Stealth and Slammer both failed to open until mid to late March. As well as this it has been closed for large parts of several days.And I visited Thrill Chill twice and that was enough for me! Quote

Todge Posted May 8, 2009 Report Posted May 8, 2009 Probably the most uncomfortable ride ive been on. Quote
sam 795 Posted May 8, 2009 Report Posted May 8, 2009 Sam I think he was joking and SAW isn't actually in Canada Creek...I was being sarcastic-the idea is in canada creek,a warhouse in the woods of canada where it is hard to be found.it is in canada creek-look on any website or info page Quote
Todge Posted May 8, 2009 Report Posted May 8, 2009 SAW is in Canada Creek, what you on about tim? Quote
TimR Posted May 9, 2009 Report Posted May 9, 2009 SAW – The Ride is referred to as being in Canada Creek in order for us to easily reference whereabouts in the Park it is. However, the ride itself is situated on an island and will exist as its own entity. The IP (Intellectual Property) has too strong a brand identity and recognition for us to either try and ‘shoe-horn’ it into another area or vice versa. The zones in essence haven’t been removed, only we changed the style and classification of the rides on the map to highlight their thrilling nature to fit in with THORPE PARK’s brand of the UK’s most thrilling theme park.Thorpe said this themselves.

themeparkmad Posted May 11, 2009 Report Posted May 11, 2009 According to THORPE PARK's website, Slammer is currently unavailable! Quote
Paul Posted May 11, 2009 Report Posted May 11, 2009 According to THORPE PARK's website, Slammer is currently unavailable! There's a surprise!I am getting absolutely sick of Slammer's poor reliability. Every time it becomes available again, it's just a case of counting the days until it's unavailable again; which I can do with one hand. I would be far happier if Thorpe Park just ripped it down and replaced it with anything else. It could be a carousel for all I care, just anything more reliable. Quote
TimR Posted May 11, 2009 Report Posted May 11, 2009 I know its up for about two days and now its down again, heck its had more downtime than Rush! (excluding the accident 2008). Quote

stealthtp Posted May 11, 2009 Report Posted May 11, 2009 Slammer's a good ride, but the reliability is a joke.It is getting to the point now, where the park (I think) should be thinking of replacing it. Quote
