April 20, 201213 yr comment_136632 There was a couple of Pigeons flying in and out of the exit on Wednesday, literally flying right at people including me and my friend. On another note, I have come to the conclusion that the disabled lift is scarier than the actual ride, with the blood all up the walls and the fact it feels like it could give way at any second The member of staff that came down and got us said she hates using it.
April 20, 201213 yr comment_136654 definitely not an actor. the guy was walking with some staff members and the ride was being tested for about 30minsThat literally could be anything but if the ride was testing for 30 minutes and then re-opened after. I've been unfortunate enough to get quite a bad nose bleed mid-ride on Nemesis Inferno once and the ride attendant looked shocked to say the least, even after explaining it is just a nose bleed and I wasn't hurt they do still send it round empty to be sure.
April 26, 201213 yr comment_136871 I built my own version of Saw: The Ride on RCT3 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4oPdyjwycZ0 What do you guys think?
April 26, 201213 yr comment_136872 The track on some of it is the wrong layout. Apart from that it looks good.
April 26, 201213 yr comment_136873 Far better than anything I can do so hats off to you, shame about some of the layout though but it works so no complaints!
April 26, 201213 yr comment_136878 I like it a lot, I think that would have worked much better than what Thorpe went with! And to be fair guys, he did say he built his OWN version of the ride, it didn't say anywhere it is a recreation
April 26, 201213 yr comment_136880 I thought it was a recreation because some of it is like the real saw.

May 30, 201213 yr comment_137780 Anyone else got their arm drenched by the body? I had my hands up on the front left and got a lot of water all over my arm, water was really really warm aswell!
May 30, 201213 yr comment_137782 I don't think I have ever got hit by the body, even with my arms up. I want to though
June 23, 201213 yr comment_138423 Just thought you might be interested, Saw was on 4 cars today, 90 minute queue by 10:30.
June 23, 201213 yr comment_138425 Just thought you might be interested, Saw was on 4 cars today, 90 minute queue by 10:30. It may be running on a reduced capacity for the next few days but hopefully the cars will be brought back on as soon as they are ready
June 23, 201213 yr comment_138426 Saws capacity is bad enough on 8 cars but with only 4 the queue must barely move. Then you factor in fastrack which would have been high with the 20% off deal for pass holders. Anyone know why it's running such a reduced capacity?

Then you factor in fastrack which would have been high with the 20% off deal for pass holders. Anyone know why it's running such a reduced capacity? If it's is on eight cars and the batching team aren't deluded then the queue normally moves at a bareable speed, or at least it used to.
June 24, 201213 yr comment_138442 I think the majority of the team this year on Saw do their jobs well. Most of the time the queue slows down because guests refuse to sit in the row that they were allocated to. 4 of the cars were found to have damage on them and are in the workshop being repaired. As it's essential work, I think Thorpe's thinking is "better to reduce capacity rather than not at all".
June 24, 201213 yr comment_138444 I was told at guest services today that it went up to 6 cars when I went there after lunch.
June 24, 201213 yr comment_138445 4 damaged cars!? How on earth can that happen? :S I understand wear and tear and the occasional mishap occurs, but half the cars needing repairing is surely a pretty big issue?
June 24, 201213 yr comment_138448 When I went on the ride today it seemed slightly slower but a lot smoother and therefore it was much more enjoyable! Maybe they are doing something to the trains (I.e. new wheels?) and have only done 4 so far. I have noticed though that the queue for it has seemed slower ever since they started not letting people queue with the shotguns.
June 24, 201213 yr comment_138452 I believe it's wheel replacement, it should be back up to 7 cars today. I have noticed though that the queue for it has seemed slower ever since they started not letting people queue with the shotguns. I don't know what this means but there isn't any reason why guests can't queue up while the shotguns are going off. As far as I am aware, the building batching is exactly the same as it has always been.

As far as I am aware, the building batching is exactly the same as it has always been. I agree with you. The shotguns are part of the experience therefore you should queue where they are. What I meant really is that the queue seems slower because instead of moving like a normal queue you stop for ages then move up a lot whereas you used to move a bit but a lot more often in my opinion.
June 26, 201213 yr comment_138524 I see what you mean. Unfortunately due to health and safety regulations the amount of people has to be kept to a minimum (the total amount of people in the building cannot exceed 200) so it needs to be kept well below this limit. Staff are advised not to allow they queue go beyond the first set of steps in the station.
