  1. Ok, I think it's time to call this one. With over half the voters voting for him, the winner is purplepills! Congrats PM me your info, and i'll sort you out a Bag O Crap! Dave
  2. Erm, that doesn't stack up. It doesn't matter what the train does after the pre drop, the track is straight where it leaves the train so there can't be a horizontal component of stress. In the picture below, you can see the front of the train is on the drop but the back is just leaving the pre drop, it's perfectly straight and not experiencing horizontal force.
  3. "At least that was the excuse Erik gave us. I think he said something about Arrow being responsible too." Ha! Great TR Divv I can't wait to get back to Toverland, that place is so good!

  8. Are you implying the park can "turn on" it's technical faults the second the press leave? I don't get your logic... Dave
  9. Purplepills: Ha! Good stuff
  10. ^ When we move out of Beta and open it fully, there will be Dave
  11. That's it yeah, it's the title for over 1000 posts Dave
  12. No, the title fairy uses a crappy blackberry that decided screw up. Do you remember what your title used to be? That would be very helpful Thanks Dave
  13. Your avatar? You can do that yourself, unless you want the title fairy to have a go at that too...
  14. The new hotel looks just as awesome as Ling Bao! Nice TR
  15. Good stuff Divv, let's see if you can beat Lou's record for not only the latest TR in history, but also the longest running. Wasn't her's like 8 months from the first to last update? Has she even finished it yet?! Dave
  16. You can turn caps lock off now...
  17. Make your check out to "Theme Park Review" Any further questions can be asked in the WCB thread (you'll notice Robb answered the question when it was asked in the WCB thread...) Enjoy the Bash! Dave "thread locked" Wilson
  18. I still think it is going to be for a bridge.....just my thought.
  19. You also seem to be unable to spell the word "due"
  20. ^What uni are you at?
  21. Not to sound like the TP fanboy rushing to my parks defense but I fail to see how you've based any of what you've just posted on reality. This is better themed than any new attraction since '99. You haven't seen the indoor section of the ride yet, so you can't pass judgement on the experience, and the exterior is a lot better themed than most other rides in the park. Added to that there's still over a month until the ride opens so things can still change. At the end of the day, the ride is sponsored by twisted pictures who can't afford to screw up their franchise with a shoddy piece of work, so they won't let this ride be a let down. Personally i don't think it's the best ride for the park, but I understand that they're going to do the best they can with it. Dave "If you're going to be negative, at leat wait until the ride is open (even then, it'd be nice if you'd ridden it...)" Wilson
  22. Hi there, They're not actually brakes, but a pre drop. The idea is that the track is at such an angle that the train moves at the same speed as the chain lift, reducing wear on the dogs etc. More recently they've just been speeding up the chain at the end of the lift to achieve the same effect. Hence no pre-drops on some more recent B&M's. Hope that answers your question Dave
  23. Don't forget, we also accept paint entrys!! If it's funny enough, the readers might not mind it being a little "rough around the edges" Keep 'em coming guys! Dave
  24. Yeah, there's a slight difference I'll never forget my australian cousin saying something along the lines of "I threw one of my thongs at him, got him in the face!"
