It makes my heart sink to see all the effort gone into a park simply to get blown away. It is like when you are making an RCT park and it is really good and you forget to save. I hope all who are affected and all places affected can recover soon.

Courtesy of yours truly.

I have never been on it but this ride looks awesome. It is nice to see it getting some TLC. I think they are going to change the ending, which would be interesting to see. I imagine a steep fast helix to get some G would be nice. Let the speculation begin!!

I do love the complete feel of the old B&M dive machines. They seem so mechanical, and as if they are purely there to drop you into a hole. They feel RAW! The color scheme of black and orange is also really nice. They just look so cool.

Because they have no imagination. Why don't people make old skool coasters anymore. they are so much better.

Back to my argument about the facts I was given, well I have had a reply from Thorpe Park. It was inconclusive to say the least. Hi Henry, Thank you for contacting us here at THORPE PARK Resort. Our VIP team are trained to deliver key facts and information to our guests on our backstage tours and experiences and this is purely based on information we have been given from higher up authority on resort. We unfortunately don't have any documentation or sheets to be able to provide you to back up this information and I am sorry that I can't help you any further on this occasion. If you have anymore questions or queries, please do not hesitate to contact us again.

^ Yes yes yes yes yes! It lives. Always so mice to see things like this! Those fins are so huge.

For the same reason there is a coaster drought, they don't care. Why don't the smilies update?

I too don't think I have been on two of a clone, so 49 it is. So...close.

No Air hmm?

I would have likes to said that I have been on more than one ride in the top fifty steel coasters. Only one ride is in the UK though, showing some people that vote cannot be that well traveled. Somebody honestly tell me that Whizzer is better than every other ride in the UK. Has anyone hear been on all the top fifty?

I see very few people "bitching" or "taking these awards too seriously". Most of us are laughing about them and pointing out ridiculous things within them because it's fun. For once I agree with Mr Bill. We should be able to chat and laugh about it, I do suppose it is how you read it as to if: As being bitchy.

Because it was only an illusion of how good they could be. Why is there no airtime in the UK?

I have been on every coaster in the Isle of Wight which is currently in operation, and one which is not! Come on, that requires a round of applause.

^ It is big, and people like big stuff in whatever form, especially when it has been ridden a lot by lost of people and is know for being smooth and fun.

^ it is funny because on technical rehearsals I have heard about many different ones. It was sad that everyone in the train got the same one.

How Silver Dollar City didn't make this list, I'll never know. And how the hell Blackpool is there.

On the third day after the second Sunday after the first full moon in August at exactly 14:54 (30). Is that exact enough for you? You can never say when any park will be less busy, especially in summer. Just go on a weekday, when there is no event on and buy fast tracks.

Yeah, some of them are slightly strange.I have been on Nemesis, and it is an absolutely insane coaster, but 11th? Maybe 20th. There seem to be some coasters like Maverick which get so many great reviews below Nemesis. have I really been on the second best ride in Europe? They are not really serious though, are they? Please tell me they are not...

I am surprised that it came fairly low down in the golden ticket rankings (thirty something), but I guess it is because it is still very new.

Unless it is the Smiler.

Did anyone else here go the the annual pass event last night. It was a really great event and the atmosphere was on point. I got on three night rides (Samurai, Saw and Colossus), Stealth front row, Nemesis, and Colossus again. As well as that Derren Brown's Ghost Train was open! It was the most confusing thing ever created. It says there are 12 different scenarios, however nobody else had a different one, and the Ride Rater review had the same one as us. If you want to know what happens inside and accurately, read their review, even if you have not been on it. I did not know what was going to happen and for me that took away from the experience. Glad to get on it though, but I don't see where all the money went. I did like the headset though, and some of the motions were fun, and the train was very realistic, and even had AC which sounded like that on an underground train!

It is constantly changing: 1. Helix 2. Nemesis 3. Balder 4. Oblivion 5. The Swarm 6. Lisebergbanan 7. Kanonen 8. Colossus 9. Stealth 10. Rage

Oh yeah, I forgot to mention that almost nobody said anything about the Smiler accident. Only my friend said stupid things. However I will admit I did feel nervous going front row, in exactly the same position they were in. It is a nice ish ride. Nothing special, but it is sad when people are calling for it to be scrapped.

Just came of Derren Browns Ghost train and want more. In a bad way.
