Alton Towers Discussion Thread
Henry M replied to Ed's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Does anyone know how the tickets for the mazes work. I know you get a time slot, but if there are long queues for each one (on fright nights TP, there were 2 hour queues) you may not be able to do all, or even two of the mazes in the 90 minute slot, which means £20 for one maze is a rip off. So are you guaranteed entry into each maze? -
^ Haha. There will be zero clowns just because of what is going on, and people will expect it. Also, people don't like clowns, so best to keep away from it.

You just had to post that.Well, at least it is cultural ... I think?!?!

Regarding costs, it will be £2.50 to enter and it is all for charitable causes.

Cedar Point (CP) Discussion Thread
Henry M replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I tried to read this but it was so poorly written that I eventually just tapped out. Anyone else? For the most part it's completely ridiculous though. The season pass renewal argument isn't directed at enthusiasts. They're going to renew anyway. It's regarding everyone else... mostly people with day tickets who the park is trying to entice to upgrade to a 2017 season pass. I'm sorry, I forgot how much of a waste of time it was to try to inject any common sense at all into this thread. Everyone seems to get personally offended when you say it's probably not going to be a 2017 addition (not directed at Mossed BTW, I don't agree with him at all but his argument is sensible and I think it was leading to an interesting discussion). Now, I am neutral (in a way here). For once I actually support Mr Bill, as I like to call him. Normally I don't comment on grammar an punctuation, but I had to read everything twice to understand the terrible points you were trying to convey. You are saying not to pretend to be an expert, but you start banging on about how you know exactly how CP works their season pass methods. In other news, I do think the pictures of them removing only the track, is really interesting. I would laugh so hard if they removed all the track, then the supports just to annoy enthusiasts. -

Haha, thanks. You get some really good views over the beach on all the coasters. MMM gives great views as it is on top of a building, which is a nice effect. -

Hi, I am going to try to make a live action horror maze for my school fair. I have some ideas on what I need to do to make it work and work well, but I was wondering if you could give me some help over what I should do to ensure a success for this ambitious project. I welcome any ideas, weather practical or inventive ad do not mind crazy as I like crazy. I will hopefully be creating a developers diary on here, and a Logo will be here soon. The maze will open on one day in November 20th to give an idea of time.

During my recent trip to Adventure Island, my (geek out Helix) hat flying off on a small air time hill on a small rollercoaster. Luckily it landed on the ride area not the sea, but I then asked to retrieve my hat politely. Little did I know they called over a massive security guard who gave me the most dirty looks ever. I may have lost my dignity (again) but more importantly, I found my hat! Reunited. Note, this was not the ride I lost my hat on, I took it off after the picture.

I was wondering if you could share some of your most unique merchandise you have, simply because I am interested.

This appeared on my BT home page, and I almost had a heart attack. The wood in the background and the '-MC' along with the slogan 'Feed the beast' which suits RMC perfectly made my think RMS! RMC!

No.1 All the rides which are closed this year do look to open next year. I think TLC was a sort of restoration program, sort of way of not paying to have extra staff for the rides for a year. Regarding your question of how busy it is this year, it is almost empty, even in Summer holidays. Nemesis was walk on all day, along with Oblivion and all other queues were under half an hour. I have been to the park many times during the same time of late August, to very early September and have never seen it so empty. Check out my Photo TR for the year: http://themeparkreview.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=72375 -

Over The Shoulder Restraints. (OTSRs)
Henry M replied to Movieguy's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
After reading and thinking, I think the reason why RMC coasters are still comfortable without OTSR is because the seats are in a bucket shape so support your body during lateral transition forces. The old seats like on Intamin Maverick have little to lo lateral supports meaning the riders will be thrown around lots more. By having the OSTR there it means your body is supported laterally. -
Hi. Have you been in the cadets? I have for two years and it gives you some great experiances and allows you to know what the military is like. As you are 16, you can still join for two years. By joining you also know the type of things they do.
