Mitchada04 Posted November 10, 2014 Report Share Posted November 10, 2014 It's only 45 days till Christmas and it hasn't snowed yet. Have some snowy pics from 2010 gotta do something with this closed season. What a great closed season. We knew what we were getting for the new season and there isn't a Storm Turd in the way. And we still had speculation about the 2012 coaster. Couldn't tell Colossus needed repainting. Inferno's volcano looked decent. And this was still here. Oh how I miss that closed season. And while you're at it, vote for Jadam as cutest couple on TPM to avoid all controversy pluk, Gggggggg, Ryan and 6 others 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt 236 Posted November 16, 2014 Report Share Posted November 16, 2014 Glad the Caroulsel is still standing (although for how long who knows) Not much major yet apart from Pizza Hut work really, but then it's only been a week since Thorpe closed for the year.

Cal Posted December 10, 2014 Report Share Posted December 10, 2014 Thorpe Park uploaded 6 closed season photos today, thought some people might be interested. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mitchada04 Posted January 16, 2015 Report Share Posted January 16, 2015 So it's less than a month till February half term starts so some more closed season things are needed. Colossus needs repainting. I'm sorry but look at it sitting there all blue/green/yellow/whatever colour it is. It needs to be black to blend in with Saw! Inferno should get repainted invisible so no one has to look at it. Where as Storm Surge should be cloned, always thought one on Fungle's site would look good! Speaking of Fungle site... It's green, it'd fit in nicely! If not then this should go on Fungle's site! Thorpe need more water rides as well. So we know what's happening in 2016, 2015 seems to be moan about RnR which is quite fun so 2017 must be DUELLING TOPSPINS But seriously, Tidal Wave's fire effect, well we know the 2016 ride will have fire (it's a Merlin thing) so they'll route the gas line from Swarm to The Arena directly under Tidal Wave so yay fire effect!!!! Nick Varney got a new house this year The black paint has yet to arrive. But now for a serious note. The 2014 TPM awards saw the loss of a category, the cutest couple award. Now I'm sorry but why was this the case?? CONTROVERSY that's what. Everyone was just scared of the havoc me and J.S217 would cause when we got a clean sweep of votes. You just know that's how it would have been. Cal, Tom, Kerfuffle and 6 others 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoshC. Posted January 18, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 18, 2015 Bingo! So it's now technically closed season. Here's some original conversation points to make this closed season fly by:-Will Logger's tunnel be rebuilt? Now cue 5 pages of discussion about it.

Mitchada04 Posted January 18, 2015 Report Share Posted January 18, 2015 YAY TUNNEL HYPE If I still have this view in March I will be angry. It's actually just one of these painted black around the drop isn't it? Knew it. (lololol shipping container banter) Olistjj 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coaster Posted January 18, 2015 Report Share Posted January 18, 2015 Just stick a black warehouse around it and hide it from view/put some fake camouflage netting around it! It's pitch black inside so who cares? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt 236 Posted January 18, 2015 Report Share Posted January 18, 2015 I hope this a sign that we will get a low key spruce up for Canada Creek this year (considering that the park isn't getting anything (we know of)). Wouldn't surprise me if that Caroulsel has one more run for half ter,. It's reliable, not too big and adds another ride to the lineup (that being said, it can disappear in just half a day).

Project LC Posted January 18, 2015 Report Share Posted January 18, 2015 is that just the side walls that are always there? OldFarmerDean 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dodge2002 Posted January 18, 2015 Report Share Posted January 18, 2015 I hope they fall out of this habit of slapping up random additions half way through the season this year. Don't get me wrong, new things like the entrance signage and queue boards etc. have been appreciated, but why couldn't they have done all that in closed season? Its kind of like Christmas, seeing all the new little bits and bobs on opening day, and it kind of just ruins that when they just decide to add them all sporadically over the season haha.

Kerfuffle Posted January 19, 2015 Report Share Posted January 19, 2015 Wouldn't surprise me if that Caroulsel has one more run for half ter,. It's reliable, not too big and adds another ride to the lineup (that being said, it can disappear in just half a day). I reckon the Carousel might return one of these days. I can imagine it being in Angry Birds Land...just with a new paintjob and new sets of course! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darkadder312 Posted January 20, 2015 Report Share Posted January 20, 2015 I have a great place for Mr Monkeys Banana Ride and The Carosel I think it would go nice if Storm Surge went and them 2 go there.
