You asked if anything has happened to the right... Right led to right wing politics which led to comparison between dreamworld and the government you started it.

I understand the cityscape was updated to include some iconic Sydney buildings and also clouds were added at the base to suggest that Volare is flying above the clouds. So you can expect that there won’t be any further changes to the backdrop in the near term.

This would’ve been better to announce during Wipeouts closure but I get that it’s a government announcement so it’s never really anticipated. Why is there a kid with a football in a bush? Why is there a guy with two wives? Why is Sky Voyager still not open? And of course, my favourite comment “Can they throw in an extra few dollars to open the ride that’s been going to open since last year 🤔”

I have a better deal for you. I will build you one Woody Hypercoaster in you backyard if you buy the materials. I have been on Parkz for 13 years so I have all the skills I need to get the job done.

This is great for koalas....for guests though?? They need to think of the bigger pictures, parks that are successful with this kind of wildlife conservation area, for example Ocean Park Hong Kong (bar all controversy, just the first park that came to mind), do well because they offer both wildlife experiences and a heck of a lotta rides! Just my opinion but I think this would fair better at places like Australia Zoo or Lone Pine Sanctuary where the animal experience is the experience! Or Dreamworld could you know, open some rides, say Sky Voyager and bring the public back with two new exciting things, a ride and a wildlife area. But I'm probably being too negative so ignore me!!

But I have a coupon for a Buy 1 Get 1 Free Hypercoaster...

This isn't JB-HiFi.

I asked Luna Park some questions regarding theming two weeks ago. They finally responded to some today.

Except DW will release a disease from a koala that wipes out the world.

Just like me he takes his balls everywhere he goes. This is Frank. Frank has 2 daughters. DW have no money, so from now on the Queensland Government will be paying for all future expansions. I have a question of my own. Why do people rush to create new topics without checking if we already have one @Jackson13Walasek?

There are way too many things that require change at this point that it's far more viable to just build a housing estate on the property. But since we're all contributing, I figured I'd join in with this massive piece you see before you. If you're up to it, take a journey of Pure Imagination, otherwise, just scroll past, you're not really missing out on anything. In terms of park layout - the former gold rush country has left a gap in the loop which needs to be reconnected. Connecting pathway between DW and WWW needs to be optimised to encourage traffic flow and a lot of the shortcut pathways need to be removed or 'hidden' in order to drive people past F&B and Retail outlets. Now onto attractions.... Rocky Hollow/Gold Rush Rocky Hollow Log Ride basically needs to be removed; there's no saying if/how much those DIY alterations have effected the boats. Movie World hasn't altered theirs and the fleet on Wild West Falls is suffering from age related issues, so I can't imagine the Log Ride fleet are holding up all that well. Would free up heaps of space, allowing the entire Rocky Hollow/Gold Rush area to be redeveloped. I'd choose some kind of forest based theme, you could even have some fictional tribal inhabitants of which you'd base any architecture around. Would be a very greenery focused area with a modern log flume, medium scale family coaster and even relocate the carousel to this area, have it next to a retail store that sells a few small snack items/drinks. This would also provide access to the parks Rivals competitor, a large inverted coaster that travels partly along the main access road to the parks. (Could be named after a mythical bird) Amphitheatre would survive underneath the coaster and can still be utilised for night-time events. Positives: Removal of old 'unsafe' water attraction (as mentioned before as an in house ride it'd likely be much more expensive to insure) and replaced with modern standard, and more immersive flume ride. New family coaster New thrill coaster Updated classic Effective revenue opportunity with minimal labour requirement Negatives: Replacing one ride for another of the same type Money. Corroboree I don't see Vintage Cars lasting much longer, it's far too out of the way. To make anything viable on that side of the river they'd need to redesign any access point to it, in order to make it more inviting and visible to even the laziest of guests. Only way to do that sort of thing would be to remove the old Skylink station, relocate the Bilbies (expanded edutainment display would fit on the Vintage Cars site) alongside a new Crocodile show enclosure and new exhibit for Goldie. Which would greatly open up the pathway between the existing Red Kangaroo/Emu and Crocodile enclosures. Toilets can easily be relocated (well, ignoring the need for new plumbing fixtures) behind the existing Croc enclosure. Positives: Further increases links between Dreamworld and animal conservation Increased capacity for display and rehabilitation of Crocodiles and new show venue Increased opportunity to spread plight of Bilbies Goldie gets a new home Negatives: Removal of a classic Dreamworld attraction Money. ABC Kids World I feel like this area is pretty well contained and well rounded. Ultimately, it'd be great to expand the area into the existing footprint of MDMC, but realistically this ride still has quite a while ahead of it. Refurbishment of Big Red Car to bring it up to today's technological standards and a small indoor childrens ride inside the old F&B outlet. Positives: Updated attraction New attraction Negatives: MDMC survives Money. DreamWorks Experience New indoor shooting dark ride that takes over the Kevil Hill footprint, as well as some BOH space themed to Kung Fu Panda (accessible through the existing Pass Centre) Remove Dronkeys Flyers and use the space from the relocated Carousel and Dronkeys Flyers for a mini coaster (almost identical to Spongebobs Boating School Blast at SW) Positives: Solidifies focus on the family market with two rides that reach all ages Negatives: Relocation of existing, themed attraction Money. Ocean Parade Now this is probably the most interesting of all, well apart from the Tower of Terror section below... Wipeout replacement... I'd actually put a Volare style ride here. Tourbillon sounds great and all, but to round out the parks offerings, another family ride would work well in this area. Destroy Trolls and put in an RMC Raptor... Custom layout, utilising the Thunderbolt Station and weaving in, around, and over this area. Trolls would feature majority of the queue and ride area. Small pre-lift indoor section in laser-tag briefing room areas. Remove Hot Wheels and demolish all queue and station structure. Create a tree-lined walkway between the Thunderbolt and Old HWSW Queue tower. Place an Enterprise style ride partly where the V8 Simulators currently reside, alternatively building could be utilised as queue for the ride. Dreamworld Exhibition Centre could fit an extremely small interactive dark ride, or house a dark ride section of a rollercoaster, but I don't know what would be the best use of that space. Positives: Moving away from temporary attractions Proper utilisation of that corner of Ocean Parade New family-thrill coaster New family (and thrill) attraction that's not shaded seating Negatives: Removal of rough Dreamworld classic No defined use of Exhibition Centre building. Lots of money. Tower of Terror The unique footprint of this ride makes replacements hard to work out, especially if you factor in the noise you'd need to avoid around the Tiger Island area. You could use the length of the tunnel for a launch track and top hat or inverted element; or for a lift hill and then feed the track over or around MDMC and onto the Murrissippi Island area. (You'd have to factor in the need for a turnaround at the end of the ride, which would push the station closer to MDMC and reduce usable land in the little pocket between ABC, Dreamworks and Tiger Island) Alternatively, you could refurbish the ride and have both forward and backward facing seats. (Like Turbo Track at Ferrari World Dubai) Theme the ride to space travel and have the small pocket of land themed as a quarantine zone. (citing bacteria and not wanting to take anything dangerous to space) Positives: A ride that actually works Negatives: Uhh, yeah, you guessed it, Money. WhiteWater World Go ahead with existing expansion plans and add a tower (HWSW Station) feeding slide(s) towards that expansion space. Remove Wedgie and add a TornadoWAVE slide that utilises some of the space on that side of the wave pool. New, more comfortable version of Wedgie or similar slide can be worked into expansion plans if guest demand saw it as a viable opportunity. Positives: Something new for WWW for once. (Expanded attraction line-up) Utilisation of empty space. Negatives: It's just sad at this point. Money... ... Well, that was fun.

Some fancy covered seating area with tv screens then

I’d recommend that you can’t be a contributing member until you no longer have to be in bed by 8 on school nights...

I suppose once construction is completed, the Vintage Cars will be retired so the Koalas can be moved to their new home!
