  1. I prefer to think of it as Castle Glen, because there is alcohol involved.
  2. Dreamworlds biggest problem is the media bringing up the deaths. Once the court cases are settled and DW focus on moving forward with new rides and shows (which they are working towards already) there will be minimal opportunity for the media to bring it up and it will fall out of public memory. Time is all they need to recover their public image. Cash is what they need to afford time.
  3. I hope the builders do
  4. I hate to be saying this but... Where is the need? SW have committed to building 3 new rides that don't encroach on that space. The money is better spent at other parks where there re SBNO rides/slides taking up usable space. The only thing Vikings Revenge is doing is blocking SW from building some better paths but from the already built path to Vortex they have clearly committed to an entrance already. I'm assuming it will be Arkham and Mach 5
  5. Can hardly notice the fence with the hedge wrapping on it. Good work VRTP!
  6. Well their COVID Safe plan was built around that so they need to keep pushing it and also likely to create a habit for people when borders open and domestic travel is on the cards. But I've not had a single Ride Op question or ask me to prebook. There is just the huge amounts of signage.
  7. Luckily crowd numbers are super low and every open ride is a walk on, midweek. I've not been there on a weekend recently. Edit: And I used the Buy 1 get 1 free at Gotham and honestly was the best burger I've had from there in a long time. Super fresh and delicious.
  8. Late to the party (been at the GC for the week) To me, the best time to announce it is when they are ready to announce its replacement, even if they say its replacement won't open or start for a few years.
  9. I might have read it wrong but I thought somewhere it was mentioned they will review opening times depending on 'weather' (read-attendance).
  10. Pretty sure its cheaper using the government run facilities.
  11. There is a remote possibility that both parks will collectively work with QLD Government to arrange some form of a plan on how to cost effectively get these people in and out of our country in a safe way. If the QLD Government wants their loan paid back they need to allow the parks to open new rides.
  12. Source: https://www.news.com.au/travel/travel-updates/dreamworld-announces-reopening-date/news-story/2202d1785a4076dd99c6f3f57ea617ce Key thing I pull from this they specifically call out the coaster construction starting in the ambiguous "near future".
  13. 2 more attractions lost at Dreamworld.
  14. Assistants to that 1 position you know of
  15. If QLD won't let a direct flight in, would they have to go via Sydney first? and do two separate quarantine periods?
  16. Dreamworld doesn't need to pay back the $70mil in 5 years. They need to pay back a bit and start showing they have enough of a business entertaining not killing and making a little money to get a loan from someone else. They will re-borrow to payback the $70mil at the eleventh hour.

  18. QLD is to shut the border to the rest of NSW and ACT (along with already excluded VIC) from 1am Saturday morning. This will be a blow to Theme Park attendance but a move I'm sure everyone in QLD has seen coming and not a surprise.
  19. Maybe the new show is staff only. Like a little cabaret show.
  20. No indications as such. These truly are dark times. Stupidly bright in the QLD Summer, but dark times.
  21. Correct me if im wrong but the pathway in won't be level? Also Painted themed column bases along paths Wait space for 3 trains, meaning preloading 3 trains of guests onto markers Appears to be only 1 service bay, so maximum 2 Trains Photo Kiosk wall, no merch store Digital wait time (should be standard on all rides now) "Instagram Feature" Dreamworlds world famous seating is going into the observation section, with water, next to the entry point Test Seat Weatherproof storage lockers 203m of queue Express, Single and Spinner seat have combined 60m length Assuming Express, Single and Spinner queue is on the left and splits into 1 for each 1/2 way down
  22. I shower clothed because it saves on washing. 2 birds...
  23. Right in the middle of school holidays. Unfortunate for them if they wanted to swing the news cycle into a positive for their re-opening.
  24. I've been a few times and they have for sure lowered the volume. The first time just after the reopen it was horribly loud. After the lighting upgrade to the disco room the volume has lowered and its probably at the right volume now.
