Nah Busy weekends is a nice new touch.

maybe busy weekends. if the train is in one piece. and they have the extra staff. and they rostered it correctly. and they dont need the extra staff deployed to other rides because others called out. 

there's a lot of ifs - they aren't new... nor are they nice

The purchase of a dueling cost is mind boggling, if you're mostly not running it to duel.

TBF they never sold it as a duelling coaster. and in many circles, twister was marketed as "one ride" - so having half shut down doesn't change either of those experiences. KT is still operating. it's building redundant coasters to report higher uptime, right?

It was always going to be that way because MW always operates like this.

Copying Gumbuya World suspended coaster was also mind boggling.

After selling DW's and MW's car park over the weekend.  It's easy to know which theme park is stumbling.

To be fair village bought these rides a very long time ago well before gumbuya world built theirs

Deets of the rides got announced to staff like when? early 2022? All the pieces were shipped around the same time and sitting out the back for years too. Was just really shit timing

No excuses for not running both sides of kansas twister other than cost saving because movie world cbf rostering more staff. Just part and parcel of modern village roadshow i'm afraid.

TNT was getting built while MW were telling staff.   It's a total MW cockup.  Obviously GW had already purchased the ride before MW.

The track didn’t arrive until around Easter 2023, almost two years after the track arrived at Gumbuya for TNT

Even if MW was the first (which they weren't)  Village in the past have been know to put terms in their contracts, to protect their investment.

Probably a standard cost saving move….
