  1. Im not sure what the confusion is? Building on the left is the station, building on the right is the maintenance shed. Has been this way for months. The rotating transfer track is pretty nifty though.

  2. I find it hard to quantify because if you're having a bad day then it can't always be 100% justified, but forgoing the emotional element, lets make a little matrix to determine the expectation of a park day that's somewhat just based in logic. First, let's map out the attractions. There's must do attractions that drag people into the park. They're the sort that you get really excited about and seek the park out just for them such as: Wild West Falls Super Man Escape DC Rivals Then there are the attractions that are good fun whilst you're there, but not exactly show stoppers: Green Lantern Scooby Doo Spooky Coaster Justice League Road Runner Batwing Depending on whether you've seen it or are interested in it, this may also fall under good fun: Hollywood Stunt Driver And then there's the rest. This would change person-to-person and group-to-group, but above is how I see it. Now we can do some 🌟M A T H S 🌟 Let's give the park an attraction score. To do this we map out the attractions and give them a number. Must do's are 3, Good Fun's are 2, and the rest are 1s. With my quick math's I got an overall attraction score of 32. I know that seems low against the Movie World website but I've excluded any upcharges, land mentions, and I've marked all assorted main street shows and meet & greets as 1 point each. From let's try figure out the 'expectation' for the days quality which we can do by dividing the park attraction score by 5. When rounded out this gives us a 6. Now, using today as an example, let's add up the attractions which are currently down using the same numbers we gave them above which we will call the 'outage score'. This is what is down today: Wild West Falls Superman Escape Batwing This gives us an 'outage score' of 8 against an 'expectation' of 6. Now it gets a bit subjective, but the distance from the 'expectation' should be a good determination of the day with the score itself being 'average', so today would be below average. The reason I've mapped it out like this is because (I hope) that it can easily be applied to all other parks and creates an equal footing for the expectations of parks and future planning. For example, after the April school holidays the park is going to have a scheduled 'outage score' of 9. If anything goes down, especially any other 'must do', then it's going to create some really lackluster days at the park. I'm open to criticism against this or suggestions on how it can be improved as I know it's not perfect, but I try to keep things as objective as possible when figuring these things out. We've got a lot of stuff like this that factors into our review scores as well because whilst emotions are important, they can't always be trusted to provide valid recommendations and insights.

  5. WWF now has dates added to the unscheduled closure, my guess is whatever problem they have not allowing guests to sit in the front row will hopefully be fixed. Doomsday also has a new maintenance date which can be seen bellow (14th march - 15th april), im guessing because WWF had to be down they decided to reopen doomsday until WWF reopens so guests wouldn’t have to deal with too many closures during their visit. smart move tbh

  6. I’d agree there shouldn’t be more than 1 ride from each category under maintenance at any one time. But for the most part, there shouldn’t be more than 2 rides closed. Last year when DW had a lot of rides out of action, they were handing out show bags as people left and food vouchers to people who were complaining.
