There was no booting, but powercut or not it wouldn't be a very good day! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vortex shut Quantum shut Colossus Shut Stealth is shut Saw now shut and may have opened late oh and DBGT says hi. Saw was open at 9.30. Lots of shutdowns through the day and Slammer was being very unreliable. You know it's a bad day when they're giving out free tickets to return! As I was in the DBGT queue when it shut down I've got an extra one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slendercat Posted August 19, 2016 Report Share Posted August 19, 2016 So I'm going to be at Thorpe for the first time in about a month and a half on the 26th, are there any rides that have been experiencing any downtime recently? Also has the scenario with Stealth changed at all? Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

400400 Posted August 19, 2016 Report Share Posted August 19, 2016 Ghosty stealth and fish were closed all day. Apart from that I didn't see any rides that went down. Queues ran fast and fast track really wasn't a problem. We all got free return tickets but still very frustrating having ghosty and stealth closed especially for people who have travelled a long way to thorpe. On the subject of ghosty. Since it has been open I have been on 4 separate days. only 1 of these days has had ghost train open for more then 2 minuets. I have tried to ride it 5 times with only 2 successes. My failures happened when I was in the pres-how, In the baggage area and when I was at the front of the queue. slendercat 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MattyMoo Posted August 20, 2016 Report Share Posted August 20, 2016 Flying Fish is now open. I'd be very surprised if Stealth is still closed by 26th September! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slendercat Posted August 21, 2016 Report Share Posted August 21, 2016 Yeah but it's likely it'll still be closed on the 26th of August when I'm going!? Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stealth is shut at the moment according to Thorpes website and so was Inferno and DBGT, as well as a few others and Swarm broken down. Wouldn't get this at Chessington! Because you'd get ridiculous throughputs and dozens of breakdowns per ride instead. Josh3103 and Project LC 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cal Posted October 29, 2016 Report Share Posted October 29, 2016 Slammer has probably had the best season its ever had! 10x better than the last few anyway, opened on AP day and has only had a few weeks closed and then closed less than a week before the end of season (it could still open again.) The past few, it's opened months later and suffered more downtime throughout the season. Glad Thorpe spent the money on it!

If Slammer should go after two days of closure, Loggers should be well in the dustbin. yeah and Josh3103 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not re-rideable, but has been running quite well this season. It's not like it's removal would make much more area available. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mattgwise Posted October 29, 2016 Report Share Posted October 29, 2016 The ride has had a brilliant season in the grand scheme of things. Plus many other rides have had more downtime than slammer this year. Josh3103 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
