Robb & Elissa's Europe Trip Schedule!
SharkTums replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
^^Thanks for the advice Thuur! We are planning to be at Bakken for their Noon opening, then going to Tivoli right before dark, then staying pretty late. That's interesting about that Tivoliland park near Farup, maybe we'll check that out as I can see us being bored also! Thanks for the offer of the coupons, but we actually went ahead and bought the Walibi Belgium Season Passes that came with the free coupons for every other Walibi Park so we're all set for those parks! Elissa "it's so cool I have a pass for parks on another continent!" Alvey -
I know Robb said he would be interested in hosting something like that if we had enough interest...maybe we'll run a poll to see what everyone wants to do after the video contest is over! Elissa "never played NL" Alvey

SFMM meet: Wednesday, May 4!
SharkTums replied to BarryH's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Barry...Do you want to set another meet for later in the day? I'm going to have to make a presence at work in the morning but I should be at the mountain no later than 2pm. Let me know where you want to meet! And there will be no letting on to who won the video contest!!! Elissa "doesn't know what I'll be wearing yet!" Alvey -

Ok...since I seem to have become the resident qbot expert (I think I've posted about Qbot 7 times this week!) I will answer... Qbot - You still have to wait however long the actual queue time is. For example is Deja Vu has a 3 hour long line, you virutal queue the ride up at 11am, it beeps and tells you to go ride at 2pm. You could not have used your qbot for anything else during that time. But while you're 'virtually' waiting for Deja Vu, you can go ride every other ride in the park and not be annoyed with the constant break downs! In reality they normally set these things at about 75% of whatever the actual wait time is. Gold Qbot - Exactly the same unit...just programmed to only make you wait 5% of the queue time. Elissa "does that make sense?" Alvey -
Haven't had a chance to watch your video yet, but I can tell you that it won't qualify for this years contest since you had to have it postmarked by Friday, April 22nd and into us in high quality. http://www.themeparkreview.com/contest.htm Elissa "there's always next year" Alvey

As of Saturday we had received over 60...I figure they might trickle in for the next week now since the deadline was Friday. Elissa "we watched 50 something this weekend!" Alvey

Trip Report :: Orlando Area
SharkTums replied to jonathan h's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Hey now, Be nice to Jonathan...it could be worse...he could be like that 'boardwalkandbaseball' guy saying that Cypress Gardens is better than Disney! Seriously though...we wouldn't have these forums if everyone's opinion was the same...that said, I'd be curious to hear what our original poster *likes* to get an idea why he didn't like so much in Orlando. Elissa "loves ToT!" Alvey -

Status of Stratosphere rides?
SharkTums replied to hphappy's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I believe our resident Stratosphere Expert informed us that everything was scheduled to be open. I know that Stratosphere has issues in wind, and this weekend wasn't the best weather so that might be a factor. Anyone else know anything? Elissa "where's mr. stratosphere" Alvey -
Robb & Elissa's Europe Trip Schedule!
SharkTums replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Yes, we'd like to go back to the UK probably sometime next year. Elissa "there will be a lot of new rides for us since we were there in 2002!" Alvey -

That park really can get insane on the weekends. On a weekday it shouldn't be as bad, but one big group or school trip can really mess with you. I'd pick up a normal qbot, then upgrade to gold if you need to. Elissa "qbot enthusiast" Alvey -
Theme Park Review Shirts Are Coming!
SharkTums replied to SharkTums's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
^^ The first batch will most likely be normal Hanes T-shirts in Men's sizes. ^ Well, we techincally already have a logo, so no contest this time around, but we look forward to doing new and different shirts every so often so that's a real future possibility. Elissa "we won't know price till we actually confirm our order" Alvey -
Hey all! After so many questions about shirts we've decided to go ahead and go for it! They are being designed now and it will still take some time, but to try and move the process along quicker we'd like to figure out how many and of what sizes to order for our 1st Ever Shirts! The first batch will most likely be normal Hanes T-shirts in Men's sizes. Please answer the poll honestly and we'll go from there! Elissa "Thanks!" Alvey

Robb & Elissa's Europe Trip Schedule!
SharkTums replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
For everyone asking if they can 'meet up', Of course!!! That's why we've posted our schedule here. I just want to make sure that everyone understands don't go too far out of your way in case anything happened and we were at a park late, or had to leave early...basically don't plan a trip around us! That being said, we'd love to meet up with as many people as we can! The more the merrier! Elissa "you'll all be in our next video!" Alvey
