Wet Dreamworld
Dont you mean the rampage? He also made the same joke about no coins falling out. And I remember pete making the same joke about WnW and DW merging to make Wet DW when he went through the old BB house on a bobcat a while back.

Your best creation
Find the file, right click on it and pick add to zip, then follow the steps and the zip file will be saved in the same folder, then, when making the post go to the upload button, navigate to the file and hit upload, but you have to have win zip on your computer.

New Coaster Topples Dragster's Crown
Geeeeeeeze, That will be on nuto coaster, and the airtime on the bunny hill wil be insane, but I hope it doesnt have the cable snapping problems of the other rockets, maybe intamin should do some research into carbon nanotubes This looks set to be one of the most popular types of new coasters, thier 5th one and I have heard of more to come (Thorpe park and blackpool)

Wet Dreamworld
And what about the handles on the restraints, someone may not have washed their hands before riding, gah, germs everywhere. Dont be so scared everyone, as long as the people sit on something and they wash it you will be fine, and anyway, you are wearning pants when you ride it normally (I hope you do anyway)

TR - SeaWorld
I rember thinking bermuda was really cool, but that was back when i was last at SW, when I was in year 6. I even have an onride photo, I guess I was easier to impress back then, but i did think the spaceship thing was really cool, also the final drop where the fire is was quite cool, it did feel really hot. The first time I rode I got a bit of a fright from the colapsing roof at the start, but i turned around and saw it just move back up into position, quite funny at the time. Does anyone else think the part where you go through the fog smells like a dairy factory?

Wet Dreamworld
You have used a toilet at DW, lots of people use them. I imagine they will clean the seats off.

TR - Dreamworld
Prehaps they could do what IOA did and provide 1 hr smart lockers free of charge, except you would actually provide enough to go around.

New attractions coming in 2005.
Willsy, just about every easily transportable ride has been taken from WL, all that remains are big rides taht wouldnt fit well at LPS.

Complaining to DW
Slick, I dont think anyone would really be impressed if they were handed a wad of computer paper full of complaints, they would probably just think you'd had a field day in word writing various comlpaints signed off by different names. They might also think that it was just a bandwangon of PMs sent. It would be better if people wrote their own words and opions and sent them of themeselves becuase they would take them more seriously than something a 15 year old has just given. I have never experienced a 3 hr wait before, whats it like, and what do you do, I think I would rather skip it than wait the equivalent of a short shift at work. Also, if you are looking to "bump into" one of the memeber of managment, where would you be most likely to find them (not including the offices, i meant out and about in the park)

TR - Dreamworld
Why, you have never said anything bad about SW, and most people have have a high opinion of SW, I think you are safe.

Does Anyone Have Discounts To MW?
Are you an Automotive Club member (eg RACV, RACQ, NRMA)? they can give you discounted entry, also, I think you can get a discount if you buy them in advance, but dont hold me to that. I remeber last year when I went to WL they had this number you could call to get half pice tickets, so our whole family got in for $100, but thats a bit irrelevant.

Ulla Dulla ?
I remeber driving past that place on the way home from Sydney. As for Pacman, well you might say it has retro appeal these days.

The technology of ups and downs
I would guess that the ride is an upcharge attraction, I do know riders can program their own sequence so I dont think it would be one of the main thrill rides, its a bit like one of those bungee rocket things or maybe a skycoaster, they only hold 2 people and are an upcharge thing
-
Complaining to DW
Yeah, but I think a lot of people have had a bad experience with some of DWs problems, me included. I also agree about there not being any 2 minute emails, write something proper and not unconstructive critisism. And anyway Rich, you wrote a whole article about the capacity issuses of DW and put it on the website, and it seems to not have done any damage.

TR - Wet n' Wild
Yeah, arent there a few fast food outlets across the way? Id rather eat there anyway

Complaining to DW
A good email adress to send to would be dwpr@dreamworld.com.au, its their PR cheif so starting with them would be good. And Woohoo, 600 posts.

Complaining to DW
I have gotten responses from DW in the past and they are from a real person, they evn once sent me a park map for a rct2 recreation so I encourage you to send your comments.
-
Complaining to DW
Well, there has been a lot of debate about DW and what people think of it, so who is planning to spend 50 cents (or nothing for email) and send a letter to DWs managment to say what you think and how they could improve? Im sure if all who think that DW could improve the way they do things sent a letter, we would see some change.
-
The Journey So Far...
Well that settles it, who wants to send a letter of complaint to DW?

NL Track: Hanging Out
Your right, but I thought that was pretty different, I guess thats how terrain inverts work out, terrain inverts are far better because you get some good leg choppers.
-
The technology of ups and downs
It also anooys me how he says there are only so many ways you can go round on a roller coaster, you can go on wood, on steel, in a twister layout or out and back, flying, spinning, 4th dimesion, swinging, inverted, floorless, sitdown, standing up, launching, diving, backwards, leaning fowards like a motorbike, indoors, outdoors, shuttle, reverse incline, water dumping, dueling, racing, water coaster, geeze, he is ignnorant of the whole theme park industry, all of SFMMs or CPs coasters manage to be different.

New Ride at Rainbows End
Yeah, Id rather just go to WA and ride powersurge at AW.
-
Cyclone - opinions?
To sum it up quickly, Vekoma made the flying duchman then didnt know how to get it to work. Dont see why they just didnt make the passengers load in lying down so they could get rid of the seat reclining system.
