Deadnight Warrior

-Operations. It was obvious the crew that night wasn't prepared. You could tell they were training people, I didn't really appreciate being stapled, nor did I appreciate not having a choice of seats. If a guest requests a row, you would think that a park that is trying to turn itself around would be all about granting the request to keep the guest happy. Guess not! Again, my complaints could all be solved by the end of summer. I look forward to coming back in a few months to see how things may or may not have changed. Sometimes the Operators get warned for letting guests have choice of seating. If one guest gets a choice then all others will expect the same treatment which backs up the queue. Of course this isn't always the case but it's the first reason that comes to my mind against it. Back when I was an OP on Deja Vu we were told to not allow choice of seating however if a guest was polite enough in there request and the line was not long I would have them wait to the side for the row they requested, which usually meant they had to wait an extra train. In the end though, it depends on which OP you ask. Some don't mind and others are quick to deny you.

You'd be surprised. I used to be a Ride Op for quite some time and would lurk these boards to see if I can look into any constructive criticism or compliments that would help me improve my own work practices. Just thought I would chime in with that bit of info.

I could be wrong but I believe it's to keep the train from clearing the loop during a valley and getting stuck between the cobra and loop which would make it a lot harder to evacuate riders. I wonder if Deja still has it's almost daily over/under shoots. edit: I see someone beat me to the answer

It sure is weird seeing my old ride torn out however I can't say i'll miss it THAT much. It's depressing to think of how many hours I have spent standing in a small yellow box pushing a button and turning a nob.

I remember it being open for a couple of days a few months ago (can't even recall when exactly) and then it closed again. edit: nevermind

Breaker Box blew up.

*takes note of thread* I am totally going to use these when I go in to work.

You speak the truth. By the way, sorry about Deja Vu breaking down before you got a chance to ride. That error was completely unexpected.

As A Deja Vu op, I'm going to have to say that it is really subjective. It fits perfect on about 60% percent of people but then you have some people with a unique body proportion and it can have a quite a bit of "play" but of course you wont fall out. Have fun riding. This ride always scares me so you should have a nice thrill in store for you.
