Doubt H&S would allow it. Wasn't that why the park no longer do lift hill walks?Could make for interesting behind the scenes tours!

In expecting them to just reveal the name, the name that was revealed by the euipo application, picsolve's eagerness to get setup and other stuff.I can't believe it's 2 days until this is announced and we get to find out some geeky stats and exactly how stupid the world's first is!

I agree, I personally think that they will just be revealing the name.
I don't mind them releasing details of the world first, providing it's something that can be seen from the queue line or isn't a surprise element of the ride. However, if the ride dose have a secret surprise element that is hidden from the view of the queue line, then I just hope that this isn't revealed which will spoil it for those who wish to experience the ride first hand without any spoilers

Corrected it for you.Hope Monday's announcement brings an official announcement of the name and location. As well as the start of the first wave of proper marketing.

Thats if they've actually made an effort to start it! (Smokehouse)2 days to go until a groundbreaking announcement that it is, in fact, a wooden rollercoaster with the name ‘Wicker Man’.
Edit: I hope they are announcing the name of the new smokehouse restaurant too, it’s all very exciting...

Ok, 2 days to go. I'm going to take my best guess at the world's first.
I don't think this will be a totally new physical coaster element, as pretty much everything I can think of has allready been done. I don't think it will be a record breaker like The Smiler, either as we allready pretty much know the layout.
AT have come up with some dubious world's first recently. I don't expect this to be in the style of Oblivion, Air, Thirteen or The Smiler.
From. What we have seen so far I'm going for the world's first elemental coaster, based upon the medievel elements, Earth (groundbreaking - it does below the former ground level), Air (A wind effect in the building something along lines of air cannons, Fire (looks like this is going to be pretty spectacular though I have doubts about it's longevity) and Water ( a nod to the flume - personally I would love a huge splashdown that drenches you with 30 gallons of water, but I think a gentle spray or mist effect is more likely).
That's my best guess and I am sure I will be wrong.
If AT have managed after all to create a world First as genuinely groundbreaking as Oblivion, Air or Thirteen right under our noses then I will be seriously impressed.
ANYWAY, ITS WORLDS FIRST PREDICTION TIME - PUT YOUR CARDS ON THE TABLE NOW. NO MONEY ON THE LINE, JUST GLORY, BRAGGING RIGHTS AND THE CHANCE TO STRUT YOUR STUFF.
