Ideas For Mazes, Precincts & Panic Rooms
downunder196 replied to Cooper Olsen's topic in Theme Park Discussion
Not sure how many people have been through Zombie Evilution as a scare attraction but I thought it was really ordinary. I would rank it below even the worst mazes MW have done (i.e. anything in the Scooby queue). -
Ideas For Mazes, Precincts & Panic Rooms
downunder196 replied to Cooper Olsen's topic in Theme Park Discussion
Personally I'd prefer it if there were mazes with completely original storylines. I've never been to an American haunt but I've heard and read about a number of mazes over there that follow a completely made up story line and they sound brilliant. These come from all sorts of parks including Six Flags and Cedar Fair. I recall hearing about a haunted wharf or something of the like from SFDK. Anything that is completely unique and follows some sort of backstory would be brilliant, especially if it was themed to its surroundings such as the show stage being some sort of old western theme. Whilst I'm not the creative type I think original ideas with a solid backstory are far more interesting than random IPs. -
Haven't been yet but doesn't sound like much has changed from the queueing point of view... People overreact though, even with long lines you can still get all 4 mazes done easily.

What's your favourite Coaster?
downunder196 replied to AUSTHEMEPARKS's topic in Theme Park Discussion
Has to be X2, with Tatsu in 2nd. That raven turn after the drop in the one true 'oh shit' moment I've ever had on a roller coaster. Nothing beats it. First ride of the day in the front row was something I'll never forget. Tatsu isn't too bad either, the feeling of flying around the mountain is unbelievable and that pretzel loop is insane. -
From MW's snapchat...

Doesn't look like the ideal experience

This looks like it'll be a nice edition

From memory it was planned to start below the other slides. But with Triple Vortex these plans look extremely unlikely to ever happen.

There is a really bad quality image on page 3 of this document which is of the planned expansion for WWW back in 2007. I've seen a range of sketches of the proposed expansion in the past but I can't find them now (it was 8 years ago).

Apologies, don't know what I was thinking there. Putting X2 trains on an air launch coaster in the figuration of the TOT track. So the trains could roll at the top of the tower. They're both made by S&S. Not too sure I'd like to see Zac Spin trains on TOT though
-
I'm not saying this is my dream but I always thought putting X2 trains on TOTs track would be pretty cool. They're both made by the same company too.

I was at SW, MW and DW on Wednesday and the rides at SW were walk ons, MW still had lines up to an hour but were still better than previous weeks, and DW had shorter lines also (some were around 30 minutes but not much more). Heaps of people are up here from down south.

Could we see a maze done to The Gallows? Just saw something posted by Roadshow Films...
-
Because they were lights and not just a bit of plastic or whatever is it possible there weighed too much and will be removed? Not saying they added that much weight to the trains but if the accident happened because of the forces on the wheels removing weight could help fix the issue yeah?
-
Chuck it in the show stage, turn the lights off and somehow connect it to the wild west. Riding that in the dark would be pretty cool, especially if they had theming on the walls/roof/floor to disorientate you.
-
Just noticed one day admission to MW and SW has dropped to $79. Has this just changed or has it been the case for a while? Also these memberships aren't on a 12 month contract are they? After the first 12 months (the $10 upgrade) you can cancel at anytime correct?

There was a train sitting there on Thursday ^

Anyone got some spare cash?
