2019: General Discussion

[AT86]

Serious comment about ride times for a moment. If that addition of ‘weather delay - high winds’ is new then that seems like an improvement. Better than just listing ‘closed’.

Right as you were, back to analysing queue times from 300 miles away.

I thought it was xsector that closed to high winds. ?
I don t think I ever heard WM being closed last season to wind

At the end of the season when we were in the queue it closed due to wind but turned out to just be false alarm due to wind alarm.

Some interesting things to note:

• Frog Hopper is still operating in CCL.
• VR is not in use on Galactica today, but is still in situ on the back 3 rows.
• No towers have arrived for Peter Rabbit Hippity Hop yet, but the queue line is complete.

What do they mean selected days!

Probably during peak times only.

Is the park open tomoz?

 

[bluesonichd]

selected days, nothing like causing more confusion among guests.

Looks like Towers Trading has had a rather jazzy overhaul over the off-season:

I like it! Very snazzy!

 

[Poopoohead]

Pretty sure guest feedback won’t have been exclusive to the smiler

That's where the budget for the theming for their new Auschwitz pods and Dungeons facade went.

Towers Trading looks great! It really is so so frustrating when Merlin show us they CAN do good, fun, happy, colourful theming when they want to.

Wicker man is an example of what Merlin can do

Finally some good news, Towers Trading has looked like a rubbish Poundland for too long.

With that colour scheme they'd be silly not to upsell sunglasses this year.

And maybe rose tinted ones for those unfortunate enough to find themselves in the vicinity of the Alton Towers Dungeon
