I'll be keen to see what they do with this new one. Sure there's not much that you can really do with flat rides (excluding the likes of Disney) but as I do hope they try something. Wipeout looks like it's getting a bit of theming love which is great. On the other hand though you've got Shockwave and the Claw that don't really have much going for them. Sure, Claw has some feet but that's really about it. In saying that though, I guess we can link Ocean Parade together....... The turbine from Shockwave which they use to create the continuous wave for Flowrider has malfunctioned and caused a tidal wave for Wipeout (ignore the fact that it faces the wrong way, just work with me here) that tidal wave has then angered the giant Claw monster thing which has accidentally "attacked" the surfing beach as it was trying to escape the tidal wave. Now that we've got the Skyfly thing coming in, that will be the rescue planes circling above looking for survivors. edit- Reef Diver - Yes and No, it was old and losing popularity, but also being expensive to fix when it broke down. Avalanche - I'll agree with you here, this always seemed to be an "introduction to spin-n-spews" so catered for the young teens. Eureka - Pretty hard to go on a ride that was broken down and too expensive to fix. Paddle Boat - They did that to themselves. Cost cutting forcing the closure of the on-board show and there was really nothing to the ride apart from that. Of course no one wanted to go on it.

^^ Aren't you the one that just hates everything though? Given that Wipeout and Claw are two or their most popular rides and Pandemonium has been busy even on quiet days, clearly a lot of people do enjoy spinning rides. I personally don't like them (although Shockwave is ok, but nothing to write home about) but I can see their thinking. They're cheap, don't take up much space and most people still flock to them.

LT still exists today though. The new stuff is actually pretty good. Not as good as the original, but it's still good.

I heard this "Parkz" site was only set up after the raging popularity of Theme Parks a Go-Go

It was still LT themed when it was renamed. I was meaning for them to replace a LT ride with another LT ride, not change the theme. The area itself is still reasonably LT themed, now this ride seems out of place a little.

It's going to take one stupid idiot to get over the fence* and try to touch someone and with the threat of a lawsuit the fence will be redesigned again. * Assuming they go with a basic easy to pass fence. (I am too tired to look at the pics again to see.

^ I understand completely. We're getting a B&M Floorless.

You're "joking" after you've been called out on your mistake? Or by posting "have they got their damn likes yet?" we were supposed to know you meant "they didn't tell us jack shit" ? Doesn't exactly read as "once we reach 2009 likes we'll tell you everything about this ride" It's supposed to be a "clue" to incite community engagement, what's the point of just telling us all straight away?

Really? You are joking, right?

Next time you see her, tell her congrats on the promotion from the ice cream stall

The only thing I don't like about the mini cars, is that it's removed the LT theme. I just wish they'd found a way to keep it.

I don't know if there's been a change in management or what. Maybe the decision makers all took holidays, came back and saw what was going on with the park and realised they need to fix it up. Great job from them to be honest. I do hope they are reading, and if so PLEASE CLEAN THE AREA UNDER THE SHOCKWAVE - IT LOOKS LIKE A RUBBISH TIP - If you've already cleaned it since last time I was there, thank you. And I wouldn't say MW is lacking in this area, they seem to be listening with the FoF surveys and taking out some ideas I can only assume (and hope) they got negative reactions to.

Not really. With a massive amount of the population connected on facebook it's one of the easiest ways to get the word around where people can "share" and "like" the posts and spread the word better and faster than any advertising can do. I know from running my own page that FB has changed how your posts show in a news feed. For example, I (sadly) only have 20 people like my page. My latest post was seen by 5 people. That's because the ones who have joined don't usually "like" or "share" or comment on the pictures. As a result, FB decides they don't want to see them any more and they're hidden from the news feed. The more a post is "interacted" with, the more future posts will show in the news feed. So by asking for "likes" it's just ensuring that future posts they make will show in more of the feeds of their followers without having to pay extra.

NEWSFLASH: MAN DISCOVERS HOW FACEBOOK WORKS! More at 11.

You arrive early at the park. You're greeted with Dreamworld's newest re-theme. "The Buzzbine" The highest inversion turbine experience in the Southern Hemisphere, BuzzBine is the first menacing turbine ride guests can spot as they arrive in the main car park. Just the sight of it will send chills through your bones. After spinning out on the Buzzbine, you make your way around to the "Thunder river turbine express rapids ride: sponsored by The Snowy Mountains Hydro-electric scheme" All aboard for white water rafting! Travel down a foamy water track past the Gold Rush Turbine Country, speeding up to 45 km/h through the turbine generated turbulent rapids. You'll then be faced with "The Rocky Hollow Turbine Flume Ride" Splash down at the Rocky Hollow aboard hollowed-out turbines as they traverse the watercourse. Climb the aqueduct and plunge down the ramp at 50 km/h. Children must be over 1 turbine tall to ride. Still need more? That's ok, they've got you covered with "The Turbine of Terror 3" "We've already got turbines here, we've just added a few more" While there's plenty more turbine infused rides to choose from, why not head over and have lunch at "Turbine Island" You may remember this place for once having tigers. Not any more. We know what guests want. We've asked. You've said "more turbines". That's exactly what we've got here. Watch these amazing born-in-captivity turbines play around in their brand new, multi-million dollar enclosure and listen to expert talks from some of the best turbine workers in Australia.

BUT - this could potentially be one ride where the excessive turbine theme kind of fits in. Kind of.

^^ Wait, you're shocked to learn dreamworld is adding another spin-n-spew? ^ Yeah that all have that type of signage

I would love to see you provide the capital that MW would need in order to do that.

Probably because so far your discussion seems more suited to a PM conversation than its own thread and given that the thread already exists, there probably wasn't much point for this one as well.

Given that they changed the options, it shows that they are actually taking on board the feedback and aren't just doing it for show. Obviously there's a favourite in there too. Let's hope that happens.

Surely that's supposed to be 45 mins or 50 mins right? .....right??
