  1. That’s called a lack of attention to detail…
  2. No photo more perfectly sums up the hodge podge theming synonymous with DW. we have ghosts, pumpkins and SUNFLOWERS….
  3. Zero chance of TOT2 being rebuilt. They’ve removed all the track already. I don’t think GD has any ageing issues
  4. Certainly marketing well, seen their signs as South as Robina and also up in Logan. Does look decent
  5. It certainly gives a strong leg up to DW this holiday period. Room occupancy is looking strong so far for the holiday period on the coast, and thats currently based purely on regional/state based travel, and will be further buoyed if some level of interstate travel gets the tick. It is super disappointing thought, especially in Leviathan's case, given from the outside looking in to the average punter, the ride looks basically completed and has done for a quite some time, and little to no visible work is being done on it. To hear it will be another 6 months + months away isnt great....
  6. May as well open the gates for free and offer a “free trial”
  7. and once again....only ONE PASS holders are eligible to win the prize, not membership holders
  8. Definitely need to head to park earlier than start as I have learnt at previous events. I crossed the bridge at 5:15 and was in the park by 5:30 and that was after parking across the road and walking over. I Never park in the actually SW carpark, takes forever to get out too. anyone parking across the road take note however ,some plovers have nested on that roundabout - they like to swoop as we found out haha I thought the covid protocols were as good as can be expected really in that type of environment. Reminders and announcements, requests on entering indoor spaces. Not much else can be done
  9. It’s a sell out tonight, but aside from finding seating to eat everything moving fairly smoothly. great night. will also add the nice new addition that all the meals now come with a drink (and prices have not increased!!) which is great to see!
  10. was not open on the weekend and judging by the built up sediment in the channels, it hasnt been run in quite a while. I did ask the ride op on The Rip, who said "it will open again one day" but had not clue when that may be
  11. They were both running when i was there on Sunday, whoever the pumps below Bro/Rip were making very loud noises compared to normal operation.
  12. Well actually, that is exactly what it is. because if I jump on the scales, showing everyone around that I’m too heavy, am I really going to get into the queue and then when I get to the front say “oh hey, you’ll need to put some skinny people on the ride with me because I’m over your limit” or “hey we’ll have to ride with 5 on this cycle”. It’s pathetic operations, and any business that has the ethos of “we’ll be just fine losing a few customers” is on a slippery slope to oblivion.
  13. I’d like to know if season passholders we given a heads up about this when purchasing/renewing, or if they are entitled to a “sorry I’m too fat for your theme park” refund?
  14. 75kg??? that rules out probably 40% minimum of adult riders, probably more. quite possibly the most stupid requirement I’ve heard of. I was keen to get to adventure world one day, I’ll strike it off the list.
  15. Whilst that would be a reasonable explanation, there is zero social distancing happening or even being requested to happen in the queue lines both on the tower or when lining up to enter the tower. I’m not even sure why they haven’t bothered to remove the downstairs sorter and releaser, it’s a total waste of a staff member
  16. I also noticed yesterday on The Rip they weren’t even allowed the next group to even load into the raft/tube until the prior raft had already been cleared. Last season (and all years prior) you would load whilst the previous cycle was underway, so as soon as they had existed the Op would release you. Also The Wedgie only operates from 4-5pm (with the green room operating 10am-4pm)
  17. You can. Become a Parkz member and contribute to this place that brings you so much joy and fulfilment… and they’ll throw in reaction breakdowns! Join now & they’ll also throw in fancy stars next to your name that make people think you’re a moderator!
  18. Point out where this occurs for me. It doesn’t. Jobe put forward his ideas and you just shat on them I’m not a moderator. Only one - calling you an arrogant dick. Which I stand by. I don’t know, I’m not a moderator. meh. Apologise or not. I care little. But don’t say you’re going to then give reasons why you won’t. Given I know none of your Personal story (until now) to insinuate my comment was some slant on hardships you’ve suffered is stupid. yep.
  19. The old coin operated locker system is being fitted with a more modern (and convenient) tap and go style interface
  20. Good old Fabio. We've already had someone hit by an Ibis on Rivals...
  21. @pazzap if you are near 50 i feel sorry for you, because the way you have responded to @Jobe's thread and ideas is pre-teen level at best. He put a heap of thought and effort into an idea, and for you to just jump on and throw shit at it, when he put more effort into one post than you have in all the contributions you have made in all your time coming in and out over the years is petulant at best. You don't have to agree with his plans, but as others have, engage in a discussion rather than acting like an arrogant dick.
  22. That’s entirely based on taste. I’m excited for both but Leviathan has callbacks to my youth and Bush Beast at Wonderland so if I had a choice of which I’m most looking forward to, it’s Leviathan every day as I haven’t ridden a wooden coaster in the best part of 20 years
  23. Where’s the Niagara Falls of Improbability react button when you need it ?
  24. No need to apologise mate, I’m by no means the forum police, I typically use mobile too so maybe when I jumped on the forums on my laptop today it stood out. Just seemed strange and unnecessary.
  25. I guess they could skip the fork and just call in “Atlantis Swing”
