Rich Posted March 12, 2009 Report Posted March 12, 2009 They are trying to get it running for tomorrow but I guess you will just have to watch this space. Quote
subculturehero Posted March 12, 2009 Report Posted March 12, 2009 I felt I had to comment on that Daily Mail site as well - the stupidity of some people really gets to me! ARGH Quote
TimR Posted March 12, 2009 Report Posted March 12, 2009 Not sure if this has been posted but there are some spoilers in there so don't read if you dont want to know http://news.sky.com/skynews/Home/UK-News/N...200903215239482EDIT: If you click on the 1min 32sec video it shows the Zero G Roll Quote
Alex Posted March 12, 2009 Report Posted March 12, 2009 For the 5th time... The park does plan to open Saw for tomorrow. If anybody asks the same question again I request a warn level on them.Fair enough... but will it be open? Quote
Will Posted March 12, 2009 Report Posted March 12, 2009 WOW this topic is getting 15 members at once (19:26) and it's good that it's happening. This coaster should be up and running because IMO, I don't think the ride is as complicated as Stealth. If it is a minor problem, it should be up and running for Saturday at the last. Quote
Alex Posted March 12, 2009 Report Posted March 12, 2009 It's more complicated than Stealth. Multiple block sections, vertical lift hill.Anyways, by your logic, if Fungle Safari was to explode and Saw was to lose a bolt, Fungle Safari would reopen earlier because it's less complicated. Quote
Aarron P Posted March 12, 2009 Report Posted March 12, 2009 It Says on the website on the part that says rides currently unavailable stealth and slammer so saw might be open or might not be open. Lets just see what tommorow brings. Quote
alexandercameron Posted March 12, 2009 Report Posted March 12, 2009 The actual ride system isn't, it's relatively primitive compared to stealth and all of its hydraulic machinery. However Saw's themeing and all the systems which synchronize everything may make it overall more complicated.So you certainly could be correct there (Completely irrelevant, but does anyone think John Wardley looks like Jasper Carrot?)

Jake C Posted March 12, 2009 Report Posted March 12, 2009 NOOO, not slammer aswell thats my 2nd faverout flat ride. Quote
TimR Posted March 12, 2009 Report Posted March 12, 2009 Well they haven't put SAW on the list yet so there is still hope. Quote
Mark9 Posted March 12, 2009 Report Posted March 12, 2009 Just a point to be made. if Chantelle Houghton was scared of the G-Force affecting her boobs then why did she accept an invite to a theme park to ride a new rollercoaster.Onto Saw, well yeah it was a bit disappointing not being able to ride it especially as some had come an incredibly long way to be there. They did open up Colossus and Rush (on 2 swings ) to ease the blow. One thing I will say though is that the area outside Saw is a bit.. empty. I hope to god that inside queue-line is fan-bloody-fastic because the outside is somewhat lacking. The shop does look like it was just dropped out of the heavens on the area. Nonetheless the ride looks good and here is hoping for tomorrow. Quote
Jake C Posted March 12, 2009 Report Posted March 12, 2009 did you get to go into the shop also did you get to go on to the island? Quote
Mark9 Posted March 12, 2009 Report Posted March 12, 2009 The shop wasn't open no. We were allowed onto the island and next to Saw's first drop. Another thing to note is that Samurai has had more queueline added. It's just more cattle-penning and doubles the length of the existing queueline. That is gonna be hell come summer! Quote
TimR Posted March 12, 2009 Report Posted March 12, 2009 Mark is there going to be any sort of update of the SAW construction site?I agree with you about the store, and I think I posted a link a few post back that explains what the inside is like a bit, thats if you want to know. Quote

Whiteknuckle Posted March 12, 2009 Report Posted March 12, 2009 Twynersh!! :DThorpe staff's local And a nice pub it is too Quote
TimR Posted March 12, 2009 Report Posted March 12, 2009 Aparently when you enter the building there will be a message writen on the wall in (fake) blood saying Let the Game Begin. Quote

Martin Posted March 12, 2009 Report Posted March 12, 2009 Here's a close-up of the ride sign board. More pics will be released in the update coming very soon. Quote
Ryan Posted March 12, 2009 Report Posted March 12, 2009 That says 12pm opens. Does this mean that the ride won't be open with the rest of the park at 10am. Quote
Kevin Posted March 12, 2009 Report Posted March 12, 2009 Well, as the sign says, it will be open at 12pm. Quote
Ryan Posted March 12, 2009 Report Posted March 12, 2009 Or would that be for the event tomorrow? Quote
Kevin Posted March 12, 2009 Report Posted March 12, 2009 Or would that be for the event tomorrow?It means that the ride will be open at 12pm. Quote
Martin Posted March 12, 2009 Report Posted March 12, 2009 12pm is when the ride opens to competition winners. they may change it after tomorrow. Quote
