  1. Scooby Doo was $13million... Although it did include extensive building work being the extension of the roof of the old Gremlins ride building. However $9million is still alot of money. Funny enough Mick Doohan's Motocoaster was $10million.... Justice League shooting Dark Ride... such better value for $9mill then MDMC!

  3. (For something different.) Since we're such a cynical, over-critical, sarcastic bunch of park-goers, why not turn that hate passion into something creative? I'd suggest these two. http://memegenerator.net/ http://www.quickmeme.com/ Here's some I created. LULSAWAY.

  4. I'm pretty happy to announce that media content on Parkz is now hosted in the cloud. As a bit of a brief background to where we are today, many elements of this site remain essentially unchanged in about 7-8 years, dating back to when Roller-Coaster.com.au launched. In this time both the amount of traffic and the amount of content on the site has grown hugely, and simply put some elements of the site have failed to keep up. Most of you will have probably seen periods of downtime in the past year or two; these were almost exclusively caused by parts of the site simply being overwhelmed. What this move basically means is that media content -- images mostly -- will be delivered to users via a Content Delivery Network that is spread across the globe. Our server here in Brisbane no longer has to work every time someone views an image. This move to the cloud should completely resolve most downtime issues as it'll take the strain off the Brisbane server, particularly at peak times. This change will vastly improve the overall efficiency of the site and result in faster load speeds and also make the site more internationally accessible as content will served to end users from a network closer to them. To that end, I do encourage everyone to go and have a dig around on the site, particularly in the Photos and Database section and post any feedback. Do pages seem to load quicker, are there any bugs etc? This is hopefully the start of many more functionality improvements to come to Parkz over the course of the next few months...

  5. Very nice! haha, however I have to point out Skull Rock was replaced with Robina Hood and I doubt it would be as many as six sessions

  6. I'm with westical... Doing a park trip, and skipping Disney... it's like eating and McDonald's - and not having fries with that. it's like going to a cinema - and not buying a grossly oversized, overpriced box of popcorn that ends up part on the seat, and part in the bin because it got cold. it's like being John West - and accepting less than the best. it's like Dreamworld installing a new ride - and not adding it to the list of the Big Thrill rides it's like walking down the street - and not watching where you're going. (also substitutable for driving) it's like flying international - and not getting your little packet of nuts it's like doing a theme park tour - and skipping anything Disney... (anyone else?)

  8. And look, in total honesty, there's some really great blokes here who are always keen for a few hours on some rides, a chat and a laugh and a beer or two after. However most of us are outnumbered by the crazys 5 to 1, hence my comment on my "interests" under my picture. And by crazy, I mean, the sort of people who make standing in a queue very awkward.
