Valentez Posted March 15, 2012 Report Share Posted March 15, 2012 The full YMAS Swarm track has been put up on youtube:-http://youtu.be/dd7qgRPpd3w Cornflakes, Liam T and Drawin 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdamY Posted March 15, 2012 Report Share Posted March 15, 2012 The Swarm is currently a UK Trending Topic on Twitter! Helped doubtless by YMAS as well as the ride itself, but it's there! I've been seeing a lot of positive reaction on there all day, save #TheSwarm as a search to keep up with the latest goings on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smidget Posted March 15, 2012 Report Share Posted March 15, 2012 Well, as predicted, The Swarm track is likely to give me a headache But it suits the ride - I suppose I could shove headphone in whilst queuing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joegibbon Posted March 15, 2012 Report Share Posted March 15, 2012 I actually like the track... Although I thought I would because that's the sort of music I listen to Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJ Posted March 15, 2012 Report Share Posted March 15, 2012 Fantastic Track, appeals to the target audience - I'm just glad it's not being played around the whole ride as I know I'd most likely get sick of it otherwise being stuck in hour long queues throughout the year - The none lyric music I can handle as it's longer and not so in your face.Thorpe have done well this year and have been really innovative.

Benin Posted March 15, 2012 Report Share Posted March 15, 2012 Well that song is very much an obtuse stretch of PR linkage...I.e. It COULD just be a generic end of the world song, rather than anything to do with Swarm... And it DOES sound like Lost Prophets' "End of the World" song...

Drawin Posted March 15, 2012 Report Share Posted March 15, 2012 I hate how their making out that it left them suck for hours on end. It was 5 minutes, and on opening day! What did they expect?!It's not like what happened at SAW opening.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thorpeparkjack Posted March 15, 2012 Report Share Posted March 15, 2012 It was down for at the very least an hour of the day so it wasn't great, but not a complete diaster by any strech of the imagination. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deleted Users Posted March 15, 2012 Report Share Posted March 15, 2012 I really wouldn't call it a 'Thorpe Park Cock Up' when the opening has been far more successful than Saw. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark9 Posted March 15, 2012 Report Share Posted March 15, 2012 That paritcular shutdown lasted 5 minutes. It went down again about half an hour later for a little bit longer. I must admit I didn't see the apparent hour long shut down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StevenVig Posted March 15, 2012 Report Share Posted March 15, 2012 If people on this flipping site complain about a 5 minute shutdown, I swear, actual war will come.It's a shutdown, its a new ride, new rides have teething problems. Rides shutdown all the time, even in your all-hailing Disney. Stop being so petty and get over it.[/rant] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

daboywunda Posted March 15, 2012 Report Share Posted March 15, 2012 I'll agree.. I didn't see the hour shut down for myself, but I just got on to Storm Surge when it stopped on the lift hill and was operational again by the time I got off.. Then, while I was in the front row queue, it went down again while in the station and were advised to try other attractions, but the queue line wasn't evacuated at that point..

daboywunda Posted March 17, 2012 Report Share Posted March 17, 2012 Just seen a Swarm advert on Channel 4 saying "Channel 4 Premier - A Channel 4 first - Sunday 10:20pm" - It was the start of the Swarm advert with the Swarm noise and the woman turning around to face the camera with 2 people in the background. Have they made a short film to advertise the launch and the arrival of The Swarm?! Drawin 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
