  1. I don't disagree - however they should never forget it, and never try to hide it either.
  2. Good thing i'm not old and never said 'museum' then hey? I said 'honour their history' - and little nods in new constructions are the perfect way to do it - like how Disney incorporates clever nods to replaced attractions - eg: skyway gondola in Matterhorn, Eeyore (parking sign) inside Indiana Jones to name just two. But you'll also note I said that i'd rather than than turn it into storage sheds. So if given the choice - i'm going with nods than bulldozing guest accessible areas to store back of house shit.
  3. I disagree. I'd rather a park honour it's history than turn it into storage sheds.
  4. No troll here matey. I'm legitimately and genuinely holding a different opinion to you and challenging yours on the basis of the one I hold. That's called a debate. Labelling someone you disagree with a diminutive label instead of engaging with them on the facts of their argument is the kind of garbage coming out of the US at present. They can't debate the facts so they just label them to try to discredit them. I'm still scratching my head over the website functionality comment. What is it you think I do?
  5. I couldn't find a better photo, but my first thought would be to put this sort of thing over the support legs like the old claw - The base looks very 'unfinished fibreglass' so it's likely getting covered at the bottom.
  6. As is typical in ride construction threads, updates taper off once most vertical construction is completed. We will see updates when it undergoes more testing and\or finishing touches are added but for now the conversation is pretty stagnant, and this is what happens when tangential discussions spin off. Sure, it's off topic but there isn't any specific rule to that is there? The conversation on King Claw will return when there is an update.
  7. Lol - nobody attacked you for your opinion - And all I did was counter it with my own. As for website quality and functionality - you wot m8?
  8. With village operations, this doesn't prove how busy the park is, only how efficient their operations are.
  9. probably needed to update the style in line with the updated WB logo. I'm not sure how I feel about it. Probably nostalgia kicking in - i'm going to mull on it a while.
  10. QLD, NSW and VIC and the NT have all finished school holidays. The other states either finish today or tomorrow. Being a weekday, out of school holidays, I can't imagine there'd be a lot of folk visiting WWW. Can someone do a driveby of the WnW carpark?
  11. Jesus Christ - you went back 13 months to quote this? There is only one possible argument that Dreamworld is a half day park and that argument is that their ops are efficient enough that you can actually ride everything. The confronting truth is that while village might have the bigger blockbusters - they don't have enough to spread the crowds out, and tank their operations with slow load and unload procedures that blow out queue times to several hours. It is ridiculous on a stage of worldwide theme parks that a little Mack HyperCoaster on the gold coast consistently drives wait times as high or higher than the biggest and most popular theme parks in the world.
