  1. its not actually set to atlantis at all. As magician says, this is NEW Atlantis. Like Australia was New Holland. So nobody can critique anything regarding theme because nobody knows what the Atlanteans built after they were flooded... Perhaps they abandoned their stonemason roots and classic architecture for 'modern early 2000's westfield chic' ?

  5. I know this ain't QLD based but still. Good to see a park explain this process via a video. Will be interesting to see how some things are implemented. Obviously most of the access gates (LPS has no gate fee normally) will be closed to ensure social distancing.

  6. ie; the Federal Government has the shits with the State Government and their ongoing border closure so they aren't going to put money into tourism business when it's closed to the majority of the country.

  7. You should be able to view wait times, just not make line reservations.

  8. I reckon this one is better. Better integration with the paths and ground (the ground especially towards the end) which is a big win for inverts, has airtime humps, faster turns and transitions....Almost like if Jet Rescue was an inverted coaster.

  9. Is the land set to Atlantis before, after or during the sinking?

  10. With the wires on that it looks like its designed to be taken over by a vine, which I hate the idea of. Thats more for a jungle / Poison Ivy area not an underwater / Atlantis area...

  11. I'd suggest its probably more to do with the virtual queue functions - they don't want people reserving places when they aren't even going to be there. #BOKArena. It's probably easier to lock out all 'in park' functionality if you aren't there, to ensure a stable platform for those guests actually in the park.

  14. If you going to call someone an Intellectual heavy hitter, spell your comical response correctly... *Government* When it comes to our knowing politicians and how bad they are at creating Tourism opportunities and treating the industry with contempt... I will run rings around you all day! Instead of trying to be funny, why not do something with your time and let us know your thoughts on the subject?

  16. Wouldn't it be mostly a virtual queue, and then a well spaced physical queue for the last few minutes once your return timeslot opens?

  17. Who died and made you mod? The last thread didn't stay on topic, and this one probably won't either once things have been discussed to death. That's not a scrim, thats TFH\ATF. its temporary fencing. I'm not 100% but i think worksafe rules require the fencing around the ride envelope when the usual safety barriers may not be in position, even if the park is closed, to prevent anyone not meant to be on site from entering the work area. I'd look to Skeet for confirmation, but he seems to be AWOL.

  18. Seriously - I loved the 'small guy in a big town' success story, working as a waiter in SWR, working up the ranks to get to the position of top dog. I had a lot of respect for someone who can achieve that. But the higher he rose, the more public his profile, and that's where things started to go awry... Genuine public comments from people commenting on media articles about Sea World's new attractions, and seeing him berate them for what is in essence, their own opinion. Most of them probably don't realise what role he has within the organisation. The latest articles, where he is quoted saying they needed 5,000 to be profitable, and that they government should be letting larger companies have more people in the parks just shows, in my opinion, the words and actions appear to be someone who cares more about profits than their guests. Now i'm not saying that's who he is, i'm just saying thats the appearance that his words and actions are giving. And if I may quote a forum moderator - some media training could probably help with that. If he just ignored the haters, and set about proving them wrong, instead of acting the blowhard and the bully, he could probably change many people's negative opinions and earn the respect you suggest. As has been said (in a now invisible thread) - our parks should be leading the way in showing other businesses what steps they can take to increase the capacity limits by ensuring certain protections are put into place. Now is a time to show how much you care for your guests - not to criticise your customers and show contempt for the actions of a government that are on par or better than most governments management plans around the world. Thank god we aren't in Italy, South Korea, China, or the United States, and we've kept the infection rates low. That, and our isolated borders mean we should be able to confidently reopen, and STAY open without having a second wave like many places around the world are starting to see. Again, to quote another - god forbid pressure on state or federal governments gets our parks exempted from the rules everyone else is following only to have a massive explosion in infections shut them down again and shatter whatever post-TRRR community confidence they hold.

  19. If I unleashed a tirade of personal attacks on TPSN it would be overlooked and I’ve never had a comment hidden when I made personal attacks on Ash. I wonder why MW is off limits?
