Wicker Man - General Discussion - Part Two

Are there a lot of fast trackers (enough to fill multiple trains) because if there is then long queue could be because they are instantly letting them fill the preshow as they arrive?

Did you find out what sort of unholy awfulness was going on in the station?

Unfortunately not, a poor lady had to leave the station though as she was too big to ride. Was stuck in the maintenance shed for about 7 minutes.

That's worrying, how big was she?

Quite big but two operators were trying to click the lap bar and I felt terrible for her, she must have been so embarrassed. I’m 6”3 though and leg room was no issue so that’s something.

They were very keen with the lap bars on Friday. Really making sure they were pushed well down. Its no good for beer bellies i am afraid!

I got pinned unfortunately. Still got some good airtime though.

The three rows in front of back row were roped off after the closure of several hours. Staff were accepting any old fastrack without even looking at it hence the astonishing fastrack queue, and they over compensated people from the earlier breakdown with genuine Wickerman passes. Main queue was moving at about 4 people per batch. Kept breaking down roughly every ten mins. Overall spent about 5 hours in queue which damped experience unfortunately.

It’s now 19:30, waiting for a taxi and it still running with guests!

Hopefully tomorrow they can actually get it open for 9:30, get the queue moving a bit before it gets even bigger after 10.

They let anybody with a ticket in for ERT time today...or EQT as it should've been called

At one annual pass/wheelchair turnstile the worker was actually calling for anybody in the queue with a paper ticket to come forward
 
It looked bedlam. There's just no winning for them right now.

Today they had more guests than they should have as had it not snowed last weekend it would have been much quieter today I bet. So many must have come back to only make queues worse.

Having faults and issues is the last thing they needed today. I bet they've had it from all angles.

Today, technical issues aside, makes me realize why I can't visit on peak days anymore. The park simply can't handle it anymore and I hate queuing ages for rides Iv already done.
 
I feel you. Honestly though busy might equal bad season but towers might get a bigger budget next year. We can only hope.
