BarryH Posted February 1, 2006 Posted February 1, 2006 I get surveys from Dollywood from time to time on new ride concepts and other things. I just got one one a virtual queue Fastpass-like system. I'd be interested in if Dollywood comes out with it and how they will handle it.
ECZenith Posted February 1, 2006 Posted February 1, 2006 Would make sense... They've got enough world-class rides to get it started.
larrygator Posted February 1, 2006 Posted February 1, 2006 does "one" qualify as "enough" world class rides?
Slacking Posted February 1, 2006 Posted February 1, 2006 Hey, Blazing Fury is pretty friggin' cool! Seriously though, I probably didn't visit Dollywood on the busiest of days (it was a Sunday in mid-August) but I did not see the need for any sort of Fastpass system. Rides like Blazing Fury, and Tenn. Tornado were walk-ons and Thunderhead and Mt Slidewinder were had lines no longer than 5-10 min. I honestly think a system like that would do more harm than help to the park, if it has any effect at all, but sounds like a bad idea to me.
FlyingScooter Posted February 1, 2006 Posted February 1, 2006 I agree about Blazing Fury. Not enough rides like that around and i wish there were. I look at TT being as being the best of its type around. ThunderHead was awesome.

I agree, but maybe they would just do it on Holiday weekends and Saturdays in the summer.
ECZenith Posted February 1, 2006 Posted February 1, 2006 There's EASILY more than one great ride at that park. Thunderhead Tornado Slidewinder (I'm sure the Topple Tower will be great) Good and original rides.
BarryH Posted February 1, 2006 Author Posted February 1, 2006 Here's a link to the survey, if you want to take a look. I don't think it was specifically targeted at me -- just anyone on Dollywood's e-mail list. http://websurveyor.net/l.dll/JGsD961C6E8C7lWD9sU225461J.htm
Slacking Posted February 1, 2006 Posted February 1, 2006 Thanks for providing a link Barry. I more than gladly filled out the survey which includes my opinion of dislike for virtual queue systems.
