MattyMoo Posted Saturday at 09:07 AM Report Share Posted Saturday at 09:07 AM Think they need to update the ride availability page on the website as that's a week now... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jax Posted Saturday at 10:00 AM Report Share Posted Saturday at 10:00 AM Think they stopped using that now lol....hopefully it's back up and running again soon (the ride, not the page) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cal Posted Saturday at 12:03 PM Report Share Posted Saturday at 12:03 PM Seems to have some issues causing rollbacks at the moment. Hopefully just waiting on a part and will be back open soon 🤞 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoasterCat Posted Saturday at 12:36 PM Report Share Posted Saturday at 12:36 PM I heard that Intamin don't make the parts anymore and that they have to be made custom (which is a long process) and very expensive. I saw people in the launch bunker with the door open a few days ago so it's probably a launch issue (not getting enough power etc) I'm sure it'll be back up again soon, seeing as it made it through the summer 2019 incident.

Interesting, not something I've really heard before. Whilst Intamin don't make Accelerators any more, I'd be surprised if they completely stopped making parts - or at the very least having an active role in their production. There's still multiple out there which certainly aren't near their end of life, so it would make sense for them to still provide for the parks that operate them. Regarding the current closure, I believe Thorpe are in contact with Intamin to find a solution to whatever the issue is. Seems to be a new issue which just has rubbish timing of happening at the start of the season Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't think they'd stop making parts for them seeing as it'd be a bit daft if they didn't. It's good to see Thorpe in contact with Intamin. Let's hope it's back up again soon. The downtime may signify that part may be on it's way but who knows. We can only hope I guess lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MattyMoo Posted Sunday at 03:10 PM Report Share Posted Sunday at 03:10 PM By the way, bit naughty that the app allows you to buy a one shot fasttrack for Stealth still, and has done all week 🙃 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoshC. Posted Sunday at 07:54 PM Report Share Posted Sunday at 07:54 PM I wonder if with the cuts / redundancies, the people who would usually be responsible for things like that (ie app / website updates) have been let go / had their job modified and people there just haven't joined up the dots for what needs to be done?

Wouldn't surprise me. I've definitely noticed the app hasn't been updated as much since the days of the passholder group, where they were regularly asking for feedback and making changes. The single rider page on the info section still hasn't been updated to include Hyperia for example... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inferno Posted Sunday at 10:08 PM Report Share Posted Sunday at 10:08 PM It’s a shame because barely 12 months ago, with great fanfare, the new brand was launched which was based on being open and transparent - things like this were championed as the new way forward… The annual new season videos were also missing this spring.

Was testing in the afternoon yes, and wasn't rolling back which is a good sign 🤞 Hopefully the issue is resolved and it'll be open in the next couple days.

Parm Pap Posted 4 hours ago Report Share Posted 4 hours ago ask me why, you say it's most unusual, how can I, even try, to explain, why today, it feels like breaking, rolling back like Asda, when it wouldn't normally do this kind of thing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
