January 13, 201312 yr comment_147800 Good. Maybe then we can stop these "staff members told me something but I can't back up my sources because it may cost them their job" nonsense. Then we can go back to being actually surprised when the park does something and not have it spoilered months in advance.
January 13, 201312 yr comment_147803 Good. Maybe then we can stop these "staff members told me something but I can't back up my sources because it may cost them their job" nonsense. Then we can go back to being actually surprised when the park does something and not have it spoilered months in advance. Fair point, but sometimes it balances out through those who evidently don't know it all. The last post I remember of that sort was someone saying Slammer was being decommissioned before the end of the season. That worked out well for them, and the sight of Slammer testing was then made a nice surprise. Anyway, it's a shame for staff who don't tell everything to everyone they know, who might just genuinely like being able to know what's going on.
January 13, 201312 yr comment_147812 Towerstimes have realeased that there will be another 'sw7 from the air' update today at 6:30 Gonna be good!
January 13, 201312 yr comment_147813 Right, I found a picture of the face all over a wall in west London on Towers Street Forums. It says I can't post it on here so if you want to see it you can look on Alton Tower's Twitter account or on page 105 of the SW7 thread over at Towers Street. It looks like Alton are onto a winner with a solid coaster and strong, nationwide marketing to accompany it. I can't wait to see how everything pans out over the coming months!
January 13, 201312 yr comment_147819 SW7 UPDATE FROM TT: In all seriousness, THIS IS A FACEBOOK UPDATE:
January 13, 201312 yr comment_147822 Looks amazing! That inversion will be crazy, twisting through another one at the same time. But seriously, they have only done that much track?!
January 13, 201312 yr comment_147824 ^And the secret element. We don't know how complicated the system is so they could have spent much time on putting it all together.
January 13, 201312 yr comment_147827 Have they REALLY spoilered a zero-g? WARNING - POTENTIAL SPOILER!
January 13, 201312 yr comment_147828 Have they REALLY spoilered a zero-g?WARNING - POTENTIAL SPOILER! It's funny because the whole right side of the image isn't even necessary, and if anything they've just drawn more attention to it.
January 14, 201312 yr comment_147852 Amazingly compact ride there, in fact I can't even imagine a four per row ride car getting through all that.
January 14, 201312 yr comment_147853 That's going to break necks be intense. If it rides like Fluch, or Rage, or Speed, or Mystery Mine, then we'll be fine... Or have lap bars \o/ Also, GERSTLAUER CAR OF JOY!
January 14, 201312 yr comment_147854 That looks an absolute mess, in the most magnificent way. If the duelling aspect is correct two trains in that section at a time will look chaotic, like a dog fight. This should be one hell of a ride for the spectators.
January 14, 201312 yr comment_147856 TTF posting more photos tonight apparently... Expect most of them to be censored then
January 14, 201312 yr comment_147857 Looking brilliant! On a side note since when has Fanta been an X sector sponsor?
January 14, 201312 yr comment_147859 Since 2011, when they ballsed it right up. Chaos ensued. http://forum.towerstimes.co.uk/alton-towers-general/oblivion-now-sponsored-by-fanta/90/
January 14, 201312 yr comment_147865 Anyone else think they should stick one of those smiler faces on top of where the fanta bit is atm? I think that would look pretty good as you would see it from Oblivion aswell!
January 14, 201312 yr comment_147876 These images of the barriers at Leeds station were posted over on TowersStreet forums. Love this illusive way of drawing peoples attention to the symbol but not giving any hints as to what it is for.
January 14, 201312 yr comment_147886 SW7 UPDATE FROM TT: In all seriousness, THIS IS A FACEBOOK UPDATE: Is it just me or does the track already look as if it's aged about 10 years since it arrived on site?
January 14, 201312 yr comment_147888 The rides track isn't actually black! They describe it as 'grey black' Check out the material plan: http://publicaccess.staffsmoorlands.gov.uk/upload/PublicAccess/materialfinishes%20(37872).PDF
January 14, 201312 yr comment_147894 ^And the secret element. We don't know how complicated the system is so they could have spent much time on putting it all together. Ah that explains it then. Wonder what it will be...
