@Rollercoaster_Lover , this is obviously you because you are the only person who spells Green Lantern as Greenlauntern

I went today to check out the Stormtrooper weekend and the pass centre was packed with a line out the door for most of the day. Still many people buying new passes or upgrading despite the negative light that has been shed on Dreamworld this past week.

Dreamworld this afternoon: Full carpark Great atmosphere LOADS of Stormtroopers!

Less than half price annual passes until June 30 will do that haha

Wonderful actually. I'm not too keen on going on any of the rides at Dreamworld at the moment, but I'm seeing parts of Dreamworld I never even knew about! There's a lot more than rides!

On the 'full carpark' note. I cannot believe it! Would of thought that all this bad publicity they're getting at the moment, would be drawings crowds well away. But the pass renewal lines have been full all day, and the park seems generally normal. Weird.

Kevin Hill is being used for the 501st leigion right now

A sort of brief editorial summary of the weeks processings in todays paper.

Whilst I don’t know the reason, I doubt licensing is it. Disney has owned the rights to the Star Wars licence for 6 years, a period of time that coincided with Dreamworld having a commerical licence agreement with Dreamworks. If they inexplicably decided after 6 years they didn’t want a glorified fan club to run events in a theme park with a competing licence associated with them it wouldn’t be a case of “oh you can do one more” it would be a “it ceases now”. Think the mouse-house has bigger things on its mind than a theme park in Australia. They may have just had a better location open up, or decided to focus on other things. I imagine tying it into supernova or comic-con would be more successful.

Update time! Because we haven’t had any updates in nearly a month, Trolls Village is opening next Saturday 30th June

Got to be kidding. They literally have nowhere to hide. If they fired someone for a safety breech, evidently water levels are a very serious issue. If that wasnt drummed into their staff following dismissal of the employee, they need a huge kick up the arse. I was willing to give everyone the benefit of doubt and not point any blame at people, but it looks like both operations and maintenance department supervisors/heads/leaders have a lot to answer for. Its starting to look like their employees might even have a case to take the company to court for failing to provide adequate training and a safe working environment. Keeping everyone in the dark, withholding information, shit like that is the worst kind of micromanaging. It robs all employees the chance to learn from past mistakes and fails to acknowledge or address any issues that might save the company from repeating those same mistakes again. I literally cannot understand why you wouldnt use past incidences as a learning tool. Aside from it giving you a chance to update the control systems to close any loop holes in safety; You have everything at your disposal for personel training. A real incident to examine, the people, the ride it happened on. You could literally walk newly trained operators through and explain not only the events and proceedures to make sure that never happens again, but also drive home the importance of the safety aspect, right while they are standing there. It's just incredible.
