Wow! That's amazing work so far. I can see I'm really going to have to really concentrate to beat your level of detail. It's a shame that your park will not be open to guests. I always prefer to see realistic looking parks that are peep friendly. Nevertheless, your entrance so far and your Impulse look great. My park is probably around 20%. I'm taking my time so as not to get bored but will hopefully be finished for the January 1st deadline. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- New at Woodlands Park Apply for your Season Pass at Woodlands Park from today at the end of your post in the Stoksy's RollerCoaster Contest for free admission to Woodlands Park up to and including January 1st 2010.

TR London 2009.07.01 - 2009.07.06
ericmichaellucas replied to Edward's topic in Photo Trip Report Archive
Glad to see you enjoyed London. I've lived here all my life and I never get tired of it. By the by, if you walked through the arches in your Trafalger Square picture, you would have ended up at Buckinham Palace. -
^ Using the 8Cars "Own All" function should be fine. I think you can use it in the scenario editor too. Anyways, time for a small update. A small hiatus followed by a brief period of creative block slowed down progress on Woodlands Park (name subject to change). However, I have managed to gain some more motivation after seeing some of the updates posted and knowing the skill of some of the people only just entering the contest. On to some pictures... SCR5.BMP An overview shot of the entire park so far SCR4.BMP An overview shot of "Canada Creek". Guests are floated into a cavern which ends at a 64ft drop and a very wet ending. SCR3.BMP "Cabin Fever" is a stunt show at the back of the park based at the Woodlands Arena SCR2.BMP The second coaster, Woodland Express is an Intamin rollerskater designed for the whole family to enjoy SCR1.BMP The feature coaster, Dryad (an Intamin Hyper) in the foreground with Rumble in the Jungle (a Huss TopSpin) in the background. The landscaping for RitJ was slightly motivated by Rameses Revenge at Chessington

Hardest required school class?
ericmichaellucas replied to JFrombaugh's topic in Random, Random, Random
For me, it was Religious Education. The staff at my school just ran around like headless chickens when I told them I'm an aethiest. They kept putting me in that class for five years and wondered why I refused to do the work! -

The "Preview" Thread
ericmichaellucas replied to DBru's topic in Roller Coaster Games, Models, and Other Randomness
Is it some form of launch pulley system?? -
I think this should be in the Rollercoaster Games, Models and other randomness forum. Check here: www.themeparkreview.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=49420 For the RCT3 Help topic. If there is a cheat code, someone here should know it.

THORPE PARK's New Queueing System
ericmichaellucas replied to Koolkid's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I'll be going to Thorpe Park next Tuesday, so I'll keep an eye on the new queue time system. I usually go mid-late September to avoid all the kids and as a result, shorter queues (hopefully). The way I see it, the day is what you make it. If you go with a bunch of mates and have a laugh then where's the problem, the time goes quicker. IMO, the queue will always be so long, anybody who goes reguarly will know what the queue times are gonna be so whether it says 45 mins or 2 shouldn't make a difference. At least they are putting up signs to explain the new 1, 2, 3 codes. -
Efteling Discussion Thread

^ Please bare in mind that the Millennium Dome and all of it's expenses were funded by the UK taxpayers...including those that didn't go while it was open. The card in the picture says VIP so I'd imagine they may have got VIP treatment for the entirety of their visit -
^ apologies for going off topic, but it's nice to see a future accountant on TPR. I was starting to feel lonely lol

Yes; although only when I'm bored on my lunch break at work. Do you have any Christmas decorations still laying around that you haven't put away?

The "Preview" Thread
ericmichaellucas replied to DBru's topic in Roller Coaster Games, Models, and Other Randomness
^ Certainly an ambitious sounding project. I may just keep an eye on this one. -
^ For the purpose of keeping to the story, you have to bare in mind that Charleston Gardens has only just reopened. CD5 (aka the mangement) has bought in "Great Swings" to replace "Great Twist" to fill up the empty space. Depending on the finances of the park and attendance figures, we could hopefully see something new in the coming seasons. Eric PS: still loving the story, CD5. Keep it coming.

Photo TR: Phantasialand, Germany 30th August 2009

Cool TR. I agree with your comment on lousy UK coasters. The price we pay for a government to concerned over health & safety and planning orders. PS - I counted only two rubber duckies -
Heck NO! I'm a Tottenham Hotspur fan Are you excited over Chelsea's two transfer window ban?
