You guys are aware of the Marvel situation, yes. I'm reading alot of posts about DHS lacking in the "new attractions" catalogue. Disney bought Marvel and they're making an entire Marvel section in Hollywood Studios. Eventually. But this will also screw up IOA, in them having to either tear down all Marvel characters and likenesses, or pay hefty fees.

TPR 2012 Trip Questionnaire!
scottian replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Robb, First off dude, I have been following TPR since it started. I just don't post much. I follow and look at every trip and upcoming trips, but everytime I open the RSVP pages, I'm always bummed because I don't have time to travel, really, other than outside my state. So basically I'm wondering, could you guys make an Orlando trip, mayhaps? I live here and I'm a cast member at the World. I've always wanted to participate but could never!! Please please -

Quiiiiick question here.... Am I the only one that likes Mantis. That's the vibe I'm getting here. Not saying it's amazing or anything, but I wouldn't go ahead and bash it. -
TPR's North East USA Tour Official Report!

I like the little arrow in the front of the Wooden Warrior train. Let's you know which way you're going. Seriously, though, I want to ride this thing. Coney Island looks great, too. I once went there with my uncle who lives in Grenich Village, but holy moley it's improved by a long shot. -
Cedar Point (CP) Discussion Thread

I recently came back from a trip to Cedar Point, and Top Thrill Dragster was having alot of problems. It was rolling back 3/4 times, practically, and there was at least 30 minutes of downtime between each roll back. I waiting in a 1.7 hour line, and about two trains before my ride, it rolled back for the first time that day. We stood there for at least another hour waiting for......whatever.........and I decided to bail. I watched the ride from all over the park for the rest of the day and noticed that the trains pretty much never made it over the top hat. The ride redeemed itself late at night, though. They seemed to have fixed the ride, and they kept TTD open for at least three hours after the park closed. And since Maverick was down for the last few hours of the operating day, I rode the thing until the park started telling us to leave, which was way after closing time! My point it, TTD wasn't operating very well for the majority of the day and am wondering if anyone else has had a day like this. About two trains before the ride started misbehaving. The launches started getting really smoky. Notice the cloud of steam (?) surrounding the launch and break run. -
Hello hello! Today I was notified of my appointment to have an interview at Universal Studios to be a tour guide on Jaws! I am super duper excited! I've been to many an interview, but this is my first at any type of theme park or otherwise. That being said, any tips or pointers? I know alot of TPR members are also theme/amusement park employees. So stoked!

Overview MAKE CLICKINGS! Alright! I have successfully re-played the scenario. I have recycled two of the rides from my last play through, and they are both approximately where they were when they were first conceived. I added a hypercoaster to the left leg of the park, and another woodie to the right leg. Down the center is an abundance of rides for all to enjoy, and scattered about are the gentle rides that everyone ELSE can enjoy. Scott\'s Peabody\'s Leafy Lake in Game ExchangeThis, forever shall be considered my submission to the challenge. I recycled Through The Trees As well as Gladiator Gladiator and its neighbors. The out and back woodie on the opposite side. And Achiles! There are a bunch of other rides everywhere, see for yourself! *EDIT* Whoops, just realised I neglected to theme the station. This ride was literally last minute, though, so my fault.
