July 29, 200916 yr comment_64950 As Paul said, I was joking becuase of Thorpe Parks reputation of poor reliablility.
July 29, 200916 yr comment_64951 Please don't take it personally Ross, everyone does it here. Even me.
July 29, 200916 yr comment_64953 I think thorpes reliabilty has been wicked this year, well compare to previous years. they could do with less brake downs in the park, you normally see saw down fo 30mins or so and stealth with a few empty trains.
July 29, 200916 yr comment_64957 Yeah I agree, Thorpe Parks reliability has improved loads this year compared with previous years!
July 31, 200916 yr comment_65079 It's been excellent availability wise this season, as much as I hate the park at the moment. Though look back to summer 2007.... Quantum, Colossus, Samurai, Slammer and vortex were unavailable for long periods of time (although vortex was only a week I think). To what we have had this season is having all rides open everyday for the majority of the time.

To what we have had this season is having all rides open everyday for the majority of the time.Rides still regularly go down during the day and some regularly open late/shut early so no, I don't agree it has been 'excellent availability'. Lego and CWoA have both had near perfect availability this year with the exception of Buccaneer opening late twice, Fury closing early twice, Rameses shut for a week and Griffins down for two days - it's a lot better than the near constant shutdowns that happen at Thorpe.
July 31, 200916 yr comment_65089 I was ON zodiac broke down - it was my brothers first ever ride on it and we had queued 15minutes and he couldn't wait to get on. it broke when we were right at the very top and we slowed right down, he now refuses to go on again(we didn't wait cos we had to go home!)

August 1, 200916 yr comment_65158 Another thing people are forgetting that this time last year Rush had not long been open after it's incident in May/June '08. Fortunately, incidents such as those don't occur often at the park, but even so, nothing like that has happened this season so far.
August 5, 200916 yr comment_65596 ^ It re-opened yesterday but the website has not been updated so at the moment all rides and attractions are open.

August 6, 200916 yr comment_65641 Nemesis inferno was down most of the day today. I don't think it will be opening on time tomorow or at all!
August 7, 200916 yr comment_65662 So, the blazing Inferno has gone out for the first time this season...
August 8, 200916 yr comment_65773 Yes, sometimes, after a ride has been down for a few days, the first day it's back in operation, it usually opens later. Or it can depend on the type of ride.
