2023: General Discussion

Is anyone else sick of the number of temporary tents and barriers around the park. Off the top of my head

Security checks - these aren’t going away, and they look awful in the plaza. Build a permanent solution.

Galactica Entrance - as above, the tent looks awful and ruins a flagship view of Galactica. Although this is most likely to be addressed as FV will have extra attention next year. A dedicated hotel entrance shelter would be perfect

General presentation too. There are some jobs that cost literally no money that would make a difference. For one example, the ride area around funk n fly is a mess, but could be remedied by literally moving the junk around the back of the fence.

Attention to detail is important
 
From the MAP Facebook group, apparently the monorail is closed for a few days due to Nemmy's retrack. Take it with a pinch of salt though.

Don't suppose anyone knows if The Ruins are open at all yet? Heading up this weekend and would love to end the five-year streak of not being able to explore them.
 
Bugger, especially when all it'd take is for them to move that fence - thanks though.
 
They were letting people in through the forbidden valley entrance without a hotel reservation yesterday as long as you had pre-booked, certainly let us in with MAP's anyway. Not that this was advertised anywhere, but if anyone is planning on going while the monorail is shut, it's worth asking to save yourself the long walk.

Tried it last year at scarefest. I insisted to my mates they wouldn't let us in but they did and we walked on Nemesis

Me and 7 of my friends walked straight through didn't need to show our map prebook or our hotel bookings
 
Monorail up and running again today. Shame the same can’t be said for several of the rides.
