Sea World Storm Coaster construction 2013

Part of whatever was holding up the sign beforehand broke, and the sign got turned upside down? -
I was there about five weeks ago. They have updated at least the major signage with the new wiggles.

Yeah, that's a bit surprising...

If you could give any ride a retheme/renovation...

I never knew there was anything wrong with it. What exactly is wrong? Is it just old age, or something else? -

You can easily see the ride from across the broadwater. Putting it in front of the park wouldn't have changed how visible it is much. The only people who would have a better view are the people driving past the entrance to the park. -

Yeah... that was a bit of a stupid statement on my behalf... Completely forgot about the ones in America, and immediately assumed that they're being used mainly in Europe, but again, never realised the temperature fluctuated that much. -

Australia is a new climate for these coasters AFAIK, they're built for cooler climates. Not that that would cause many problems. It's likely that they have to configure a few things, make sure that different loads works etc. -
I can't believe he called it Palmersaurus, he's just full of himself...

Both rides used the same system though, so it's unlikely. BT turned out as a very good investment for the park, and BT used the same ride system, so they very likely lost little to no money out of the decision.

They may be waiting on certification or who knows what. They need to make sure the structure is perfectly safe before you can start having naked flame inside a building full of people and potentially flammable materials. -

Not all private schools are starting holidays tomorrow. Some still have a week or so left. -
Just wondering, what are the normal prices for food at Dreamworld?

That looks really cool! It appears to have some good speed as it goes into the building. One thing I'm disappointed with is that they didn't go to the effort of making the gravel areas a shallow pool of water, just to add to the theme a bit. -
Today show at Movieworld all morning

They don't have to visit Dreamworld. They'll only visit it if they think it will be worth it. -

Is this just for the sake of it, or will there be something special? -
What kind of questions do they ask you for an interview for a job at a theme park? I've been to a few interviews before for different things, and they often have some strange questions that you never expect...

Haven't they been saying that about every tuesday afternoon for the last month? -

They don't have the big budget and near infinite pools of money that Gold Coast parks have... -
Yeah, this isn't going to happen. The developers will need to pull off some kind of genocide on farmers... Thats not even considering anything else...

Don't write to the source, write to the newspapers and tell them to publish how much crap is in that.

Queensland Government Launches "Theme Park Capital" Campaign
mba2012 replied to Bmull19's topic in Theme Park Discussion
They still have a fairly large patch of land up the back of the park don't they? Problem is, all of the animals are out near there. -
If it does, then you should have a good amount of time at the park. Unless your flying Jetstar...
-
If your flight arrives at 12 you won't be at sea world until at least one. Gates close at five. That gives you at least four hours to go around. It honestly depends on how long the lines are. In my experience, you can never really know what the lines will be like, so don't bet on them being short. I think you could get at least one ride on the storm coaster and jet rescue, and if you can manage your time well, you'll be able to fit in the dolphin show.

You really should have done a bit more work getting permission from people etc... -
This is quite sad, I remember these trains from a decade ago when I last rode on them. It likely is a mix of staffing and maintenance etc. costs contributing to the retirement.
