  1. Which explains the sign out the front saying "reduced capacity due to circumstances out of our control" Would love to know why a train being dismantled is out of their control.
  2. I went on Doomsday 4 times yesterday (first time my son was tall enough and it was open) and as mechanical and structured as the ride is, its a 1 trick pony. Not much more it can do really except maybe an additional spin each way. Overall I'm pretty satisfied with the length of Doomsday. Load and unload of Doomsday only takes forever due to the seating layout. An additional 2 ops would halve the time.
  3. I assumed as much. Would have added difficulty with low crowd numbers and somber skies.
  4. For a ride that seats so many people, and takes so long to check harness and seating, the cycle is way too short.
  5. I actually find this kinda hilarious since QLD only just relaxed the buffet COVID rules allowing buffets again. Also chiming in with everyone else. MW was great today, lots of staff and characters and low ride wait times. Some Nathan dude in a suit was walking around watching all the main street shows then chatting to his staff after them also, and noticed a lot of filming going on, some seemed professional too.
  6. @DaptoFunlandGuy I don't want Arkhams replacement to top Rivals as such, but I think keeping some form of 'gimmick' coaster would be a good idea. Be it a suspended, wing, dive, standing, 4D or something along those lines.
  7. As much as I love this ride, I don't think its a good Arkham replacement
  8. my exact thoughts. Hopefully can finally line up my visits..
  9. Do Mack do pull throughs? I don't rememeber Rivals having a pull through
  10. Yes, should clarify I meant not able to be used on VTRP One Pass.
  11. Just FYI it looks like the GC Dollars voucher can be used on DW passes, but not on VRTP Passes.
  12. absestos? / large amounts of absestos? its still somewhat out of the way and generally can't see it.
  13. Luckily Trident will be right next to it, so many guest will soon be able to see Also thanks yeah.
  14. Thanks @DaptoFunlandGuy, always appreciated. Sorry to be that guy but is it possible to get a higher res / zoomed in image of the Atlantis area? Not the abilities of Near Map
  15. This $100 pass is also coming out just when the QLD government is handing out $100 gold coast vouchers...
  16. White Water incident, regardless of how it happened literally injured someone and was reported (hyped up) in the news. The GL incident, although way more severe caused 0 injuries and was reported more or less like a normal ride stoppage. The closest you get is this quote: In the media, there is nothing to report on since "nothing" happened.
  17. Just to ruin the hate parade on the program, the GL incident, as bad and horrible as it could have been, it didn't kill or dismember anyone. It's nowhere near as headline and news grabby as actual deaths and permanent injury. VRTP in no way paid to come out as the good guys. A LOT of the general public aren't aware that GL had a major incident, and the regular downtime of the ride kinda helps with that since that time period was just "another downtime".
  18. I really liked this and agree with @joz and happy to join the "MW is best World" bandwagon if need be, but 1 thing is massively glaring in this video is "nothing" has happened at the park since 2017. Rivals doesn't feel that long ago and yeah, its 4th birthday is this year. Just kinda feels weird, and I would say the turn of the decade is likely playing tricks with my mental processing. Aren't Rivals and GL the literal defenition of unique coasters? Rivals being a custom Mack Hyper with rear facing seat and non-inverted loop and a colour no one could agree on. There are no identical copies that exist right? Plus even to this day, whenever I see pic's or videos of Rivals posted online on YT/Reddit ect, people comment saying they can't wait to come to Australia to go on Rivals.
  19. Merriam Webster defines Cannel as an obsolete word defining "a gutter in a road" so I mean its a gutter TV Station so on the right track?
  20. I really just wish you walked through a waterfall to enter Wet n Wild Any announcements made will only be for Hooray for Hollywood. Future park plans will be made once the event is over.
  21. The park will be closing at 6pm for the event correct? And being winter it is dusk from around 4:30 and will be visible from then so I think its fine.
  22. I hope you don't work. 3,751 workers were fatally injured while working from 2003 to 2018. Working kills. Millions of people go to work expecting to make money and be bored out of their brains, not lose their brains. Your argument can be made about anything.
