The Best Rollercoaster in the world
I haven't been on many coasters, only on the GC and Universal Studios Japan. But I'm very glad to see that the Flying Dinosaur is coming up on people's lists, as when I rode it last year, I couldn't believe how insane and awesome that coaster was and was unlike anything I'd experience here before.

DC Rivals HyperCoaster construction discussion
As I've mentioned before, I don't think there can be anything else in this area except for a loop. There is a footing outside the fence, which is no where near any other footings, which suggests that it will have supports that go up high. There is also another footing almost in line with it, on the other side, close to the airtime footings, which hadn't been used yet. From what we've seen so far, and looking at the other footings placement, I'm fairly certain that before the Stengel dive will be a loop, as shown in the video created by @docoaster

Dreamworld Log Ride reopening 2017
Someone has DW on FB: What's the go with the log ride guys? I understand you're doing lengthy safety audits on the rides, but the log ride is one of your major attractions for families. I'd suggest to get it back up and running. Also your mountain mine train ride has been closed for a very long time. Due to the closure of the rapids ride, when is a revamp due to begin? DW replied: The Log Ride will be back. We don't have a date to put out there yet as it is part of the overall major plan which includes everyone of your questions. Information and dates will be released as soon as we can. Watch this space.

To people who know what they are on about. In this kind of situation, what happens, do they create form work, and fill it in (but I imagine that won't keep the same structural intergrity), so do they have to rebuild the whole support (which they would have to remove the support for) or just part chip away at more of the footing and rebuild it?

Today's update. Plenty to supports installed, and some on the road ready to be installed. Along with the covers on the support outside the fence have been taken off.

Dreamworld reports growing slumps in attendance and revenue
The areas are seperate and are Ocean Parade and Motorsport Experience. The planes in TailSpin are sea planes (and I'm not making that up for the argument, the large plane for theming is a sea plane). And then HWSW is next to Brocks Garage, which creates another themed area. When you think about DW is really on the only park on the coast that has themed areas, with multiple attractions to that theme. Yes MW has WWF and the villains area, but they are just the one ride with surrounding theming. They do have the Looney Tunes area, and the DC area, but the DC isn't a set themed area, just a corner of the park which has themed attractions. When you go to the Gold rush country, the music suited it, and you felt like you'd gone back in time. And then you go to Ocean Parade, and it's up to date music. And then to the kids areas, and they have appropriate music, theming, etc and you feel like you are in a whole new zone. Yes there are a couple of rides out of place, like TOT and MDMC, but there is only so much planning and room to put rides in appropriate areas.

Dreamworld reports growing slumps in attendance and revenue
Ummmm okay, so I disagree. Yes the park is quieter. And we know these reasons. But there is definitely atmosphere. I went to the park for opening yesterday, and they have the opening dance party. There is music pumping, characters everywhere, dancers on the stage, and even general staff were happy and dancing. That doesn't happen at MW, they just keep you off the road during the parade and don't join in on the excitement (And that's one thing the parade is lacking lately, the characters are great, but don't think it is anywhere near as good as what it used to be). And to say the theming isn't obvious to Wipeout, claw, tailspin and even GD, come on. Wipeout has a bloody massive wave there. How is it not obvious. Tailspin has a plane. GD, has a sign out the front saying it's the Great Oil Company, with oil pumps. And the Claw is a beast, it has giant claws on the arms, and is crushing cars. I don't really think theming is lacking anywhere really. Could it be improved on for a number of rides, yes. But they've all got some. MDMC just has worn out theming, and could easily be replaced. The reason why we don't like it is because it is uncomfortable, and doesn't keep its sensation of speed. The Gold Rush county seems quiet because there is only the BuzzSaw and if you don't want to ride it you don't go to the area. I get your opinion and perspective on this, but to say DW has nothing going for it. That's where you are wrong, it has plenty going for it

Should Whitewater World have more of it's own identity?
WnW is themed? Except for Calypso beach, I wouldn't say any rides, or the park in general is themed.

So you can see that pieces 43 and 42 are those tight twisting pieces, and together they can go upside down.
