1) 1998.2) Ollie Octopus, Swinging Seashells, Galleon Race, Up Periscope... oh yeah, Fantasy Fish and Serpent Trail?3) Rush, Detonator, Slammer, Vortex, Zodiac, Rocky Express, Storm in a Teacup and Samurai.4) Some bit of theming, vague I know, but yeah. Something from the queue line wasn't it?5) Someone in the Mystic East. Again, can't remember where it was exactly. Somewhere is the Dragon Falls queue line I think.

You still haven't given the answers and results for the past two quizzes. Without sounding rude, can we have them, maybe it might get more interest in again.Anyway....

1) He is the 'owner' of the Merlin parks; they are are leased to him (par Chessington).2) Steel Hawg is in America.3) Steel Hawg is an S&S El Loco roller coaster. It has a 111 degree drop (second steepest in the world), thus making it steeper than SAW (but as it has a breaking fin on the drop; it isn't a free fall drop).4) In 2001, the park advertised Vortex as open during their start-of-season campaign. However, only the four supports has been laid.5) The park was known as Blue Sky Park.

Okay, I said I'd give regenerating the quiz a go, so here goes.I said I'd try a slightly new format, so what will happen is each question will have points. This will mean easy questions will be worth 1-2 points, whilst harder questions will be worth 3+ points (depending on how much of an answer is required). This way, it will make the long-term quiz (if it actually happens) slightly more interesting. Points for each questions will be in by the side of the question. As per usual, reply with a post with spoiler tags. And, of course, no cheating. :(Each week should have 5 questions. 1) Name two elements (1 point for each element) that were in the original plans for SAW - The Ride, but removed when the plans were revised. [2]2) What month and year did Thorpe Park officially open? [2]3) What is the maximum number of boats that can be used on Tidal Wave? [2]4) What was the first name of the Flying Fish? [1]5) Who officially opened the park? [4]
