TimR Posted March 18, 2009 Report Posted March 18, 2009 Just got an update from sam 795 who is at the park as I speak, he says SAW has broken down and they have evacuated the queue. Quote
subculturehero Posted March 18, 2009 Report Posted March 18, 2009 So if we only count main season opening, Saw's only been open for two full days? That's pretty poor! Quote
TimR Posted March 18, 2009 Report Posted March 18, 2009 Well it has only just broken down so its been open quite alot of the day, its a minor problem apparently. Quote
subculturehero Posted March 18, 2009 Report Posted March 18, 2009 I guess I'm more likely to be critical 'cos I ended up disappointed on Sunday haha! Surely that's gotta be a lot below average for the opening week or so of a ride though? Quote
Rich Posted March 18, 2009 Report Posted March 18, 2009 I was on Park yesterday and today and it has been running well, left around 2ish today. Quote
TimR Posted March 18, 2009 Report Posted March 18, 2009 It opened yesterday I'm talking about today, they evacuated the queue, look back a few posts. Quote
treeis Posted March 18, 2009 Report Posted March 18, 2009 Ah, its good its open again. I was a bit worried there. Quote
stuiesk Posted March 18, 2009 Report Posted March 18, 2009 yeh, I was glad that it opened again earlier.Something which I had never noticed before was that if you're on the second train you stop next to the doll and he speaks to you for a bit. Learn something new everyday! Quote
Jamie_Hk Posted March 18, 2009 Report Posted March 18, 2009 Really?Ah thanks, it's good that every rider gets a different experience Quote
Johnny07 Posted March 18, 2009 Report Posted March 18, 2009 If you're on the second train you stop next to the doll and he speaks to you for a bit. Learn something new everyday! Thats because you have to wait a little longer for the first train to clear the block. Also, is it an actual animatronic? Quote
Mer Posted March 18, 2009 Report Posted March 18, 2009 Haven't got much time so just a quick post lol. Managed to get on SAW today, after the bad luck at the weekend! Was absolutely brilliant, we were only at the park for a few hours unfortunately but I'll be returning tomorrow woop! The first drop was very forceful! Theming was fantastic! Quote
stuiesk Posted March 18, 2009 Report Posted March 18, 2009 Thats because you have to wait a little longer for the first train to clear the block. Also, is it an actual animatronic?Yeh, I knew that, which is why I asked the ride host to seat me on the second train to see what happens. The mouth just moves, doesn't match what it says though, just up and down like a puppet Quote
Jamie_Hk Posted March 18, 2009 Report Posted March 18, 2009 That sounds quite cool actually, makes it sound slightly more weird. Quote
TheCon Posted March 18, 2009 Report Posted March 18, 2009 Hope to ride this next friday! I've been reading the SAW - The Ride construction topic for months, can't wait to see it in person.Question: this shuffle, jolt thing at the bottom of the second drop, is it that bad? Sounds ridiculous but, I have a fresh cartilage piercing, am I to expect a lot of pain from hitting my ears on the restraints? Quote
Rich Posted March 18, 2009 Report Posted March 18, 2009 Just brace yourself for it when you go down the big drop and you will be fine, once you have ridden it 2 times you know where to brace yourself! Quote
Will Posted March 19, 2009 Report Posted March 19, 2009 I still haven't gone on SAW yet - I'm so excited what with the swinging blades and all Quote
Morgan Posted March 19, 2009 Report Posted March 19, 2009 Luckily I managed to get on it on the 13th, it is an amazing ride, such a great experience. The atmosphere they have created in and around the ride is top notch. I can't wait to go back and ride again. Quote
dj olly c Posted March 19, 2009 Report Posted March 19, 2009 I went on saw six times today ,and I think four some reason the 1ST drop inside is a lot thrilling than the big one,The best bit has to be the air time hill and the corner after,but I know the ride a little short but it makes up four that.

TimR Posted March 19, 2009 Report Posted March 19, 2009 I can't belive that I havent been on this yet!, I can't wait to get on it!Also a question is this as rough as Colossus? Quote
bubbly Posted March 19, 2009 Report Posted March 19, 2009 Tim this is nowhere near as rough as Colossus! I went on Colossus after Saw on the Friday 13th and couldn't believe how rough Colossus felt! It has actually really put me off it Quote
rollerross11 Posted March 19, 2009 Report Posted March 19, 2009 Cant wait to go after school tomorrow. Quote

Martin Posted March 19, 2009 Report Posted March 19, 2009 Saw opened at 11am today due to one of the effects not working properly. It was given the go ahead as the queue was building up and it was not fixable anytime soon. The pendulum blades were not swinging today as they kept cutting out. However at 4:20 a quick reset was done and the blades are now working with no apparent problems. =] Quote
