Calum Posted March 3, 2009 Report Share Posted March 3, 2009 They said that to me too. Considering the fuss they seem to be making of it they aren't very well organised.Yeah I agree Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Posted March 3, 2009 Report Share Posted March 3, 2009 Yeah I agreeTo be honest I think that the whole opening a day early (13th March) is just a waste of time. Only opening SAW and a few other rides, I can't see any point in going. Also, regarding tickets, from what I have read, I think that Thorpe Park are very disorganised for this date. It would have been far easier, in my opinion, if Thorpe Park just forgot about this day, and just opened, as first planned - on the 14th.

Paul Posted March 3, 2009 Report Share Posted March 3, 2009 They are very badly organized but me being me I just couldn't turn down the opportunity to go!Same with me. I love Thorpe Park, and would love to go any day that I can, but living around 2 hours away, I really have to choose the days carefully. I can easily get a lift on some days, but I really do think that the early opening is a waste of time. But I suppose, the earlier the better .

bubbly Posted March 3, 2009 Report Share Posted March 3, 2009 Just to let you guys know, I booked tickets online for March 15th which I wanted to print at home but they still haven't come and I booked them on Sunday.I spoke to Thorpe and they said I would have to take the reference number to the advanced booking bit (which has annoyed me a bit because the reason I was printing them at home was so I didn't have to queue)Am pretty sure this won't be the same for you guys as you are meant to have a specific time to go on Saw so thought I'd better let you know so that you can call Thorpe if you don't receive them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whiteknuckle Posted March 3, 2009 Report Share Posted March 3, 2009 I'm not bothering to go anywhen before the RCCGB trip on the 21st. I'm going to be riding Edge at Paultons on the 14th. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bubbly Posted March 3, 2009 Report Share Posted March 3, 2009 That's alright :PI'm hoping I will get them eventually so that I don't have to queue at advanced bookings as I was trying to avoid any queues apart from the queue to get in!

Jamie_Hk Posted March 3, 2009 Report Share Posted March 3, 2009 The fences with the barb wire, is that the queue line? WOW. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freddy Posted March 3, 2009 Report Share Posted March 3, 2009 Hay I think I may have spotted a plasma screen above you just before you enter the lift hill on a pic, maybe of Jigsaw saying something to you, Click Here to see the pic, Think about it and look very hard. Please don't have a go at me for being wrong. Thanks!Yes I knew there was a plasma TV there! Clicky Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamie_Hk Posted March 3, 2009 Report Share Posted March 3, 2009 Just realised that is the queue.And yeah, looks like you was right. I wonder what it'll be used for though :/ hmm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
subculturehero Posted March 3, 2009 Report Share Posted March 3, 2009 People talking about ticket problems - I'm planning on going on the 15th using Tesco Clubcard tickets, d'you reckon that'll end up being problematic? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sheepie Posted March 4, 2009 Report Share Posted March 4, 2009 ^ Lmao!After talking to someone, sounds like this ride isn't going to disappoint. Think immersive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alexandercameron Posted March 4, 2009 Report Share Posted March 4, 2009 Is it actually confirmed Saw: The Ride will be officially labeled as being in Canada Creek?Potentially we could see another area listed on the 09 Map when it's released?

Paul Posted March 4, 2009 Report Share Posted March 4, 2009 Is it actually confirmed Saw: The Ride will be officially labeled as being in Canada Creek?Potentially we could see another area listed on the 09 Map when it's released?I have no idea. I think it would be nice if they created a new area for SAW, and then they could always extend the area over the lake in the future to build more rides. Because SAW it a very substancial ride, I think it would go well in an area of its own. Despite this, I imagine Thorpe Park would class is as part of Canada Creek. I don't know why I think this, just that the theming of the sawmill seems more a Canada Creek style than anything else. Saying this, sitting behind Samurai might class is as Lost City material.

TimR Posted March 4, 2009 Report Share Posted March 4, 2009 They were always calling it the Canada Creek Coaster so I assume that it is in Canada Creek unless thats changed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Posted March 4, 2009 Report Share Posted March 4, 2009 They were always calling it the Canada Creek Coaster so I assume that it is in Canada Creek unless thats changed.Also, to add to that point, I think that Lost City has enough thrill rides to be honest . SAW is just the sort of Thrill Ride that Canada Creek needs - along with Slammer. . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TimR Posted March 4, 2009 Report Share Posted March 4, 2009 Yes and I correct me if I'm wrong Canada Creek is the only place without a coaster (up untill now). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin Posted March 4, 2009 Report Share Posted March 4, 2009 Saw will be in it's own area, not in CC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Posted March 4, 2009 Report Share Posted March 4, 2009 Yes and I correct me if I'm wrong Canada Creek is the only place without a coaster (up untill now).Yes I would agree with that (if you are talking about the main areas), I.e.: Ranger County doesn't and never has had a coaster . It would be nice to even out the park, like you said, and add a coaster to Canada Creek.Saw will be in it's own area, not in CC.Is this confirmed?
