  1. You talk the same amount of bullshit as @Flynn_Smith does. I don't know where your poo begins and @Flynn_Smith poo ends.
  2. It's definitely an opportunity missed after they went to so much trouble in putting in lights. I know nothing about lighting design but I think the rakes would have looked good if they had a small colorful light shining up from the bottom. Maybe there is some small light in the rakes and they haven't turned them on yet.
  3. All the rake lights at the front of the park are now on. I'm sorry to report that it looks shit. Picture this, you hang a piece of your finest artwork on your wall and you are so proud of it that you want to shine a light on the art to show it off. Your electrician has had one too many and pointed the light under the artwork. You hold a tea party to show off your artwork but the light is all that catches their eye. MW have spent the big bucks adding logos to the top of the piers but the lights mainly light up the concrete piers they are sitting on and only give reflecting light to the toppers.
  4. @Locke The Ski Slope will end up being 6m high. How does that work?
  5. I think the Ekka finishes this week. Is this a ploy to test and see if they can keep guest in the park longer?
  6. @Brad2912 You will be happy to know I have found them. The shown MW toppers below are now located on most of the piers as you drive into MW.
  7. The current building height limit on the site is "does not exceed 2 storeys and a maximum of 9m" Songcheng is asking for 88m. If Songcheng don't drop 79m and council don't budge, Oh @AlexB you could be right.
  8. Quick update. G.C.C.C. Planning department have sent the information request to Songcheng (Australia) Entertainment Pty Ltd. The information request is 20 pages long. If any crazy fools like me want to read the whole document go to G.C.C.C pdonline to locate it. LOT 4 SP180847. To sum it up the council are seeking information on building heights, emergency evacuation plans, traffic management, floods, setbacks, erosion of the Nerang river and operating times to name a few. If they are planning for the residential side of the project to cover the cost, Songcheng will need to do a re-think with council saying they are not currently willing to raise the height limit. INFORMATION REQUEST Planning Building Height 1 Having reviewed the relevant provisions of the City Plan, in context with the surrounding existing and approved development, officers are concerned that the proposed building heights would conflict with the existing and intended character of the area. Officers acknowledge that there are somewhat comparable building heights within the Royal Pines and Emerald Lakes developments, however, these built form outcomes are established in a manner, and on sites, which have facilitated significant screening, setbacks and sleeving to reduce their visual prominence. Consequently, officers consider that the nature and location of these developments prevent them from being the prevailing or pre-dominant character of the area. It is noted that the applicant proposes not to limit the height of structures which are directly related to theme park rides, which is a benefit afforded to established Tourist Attractions which exist within a different context to the subject site and are located on much larger sites. Therefore, the applicant is requested to undertake the following: a. Reduce the proposed building heights across the site, except where a height designation of three (3) storeys is afforded; b. Provide a visual impact analysis depicting how the new, reduced proposed heights provide an appropriate outcome for the area; and c. Delete all reference to this exclusion within the Australian Legend World Songcheng (Australia) Entertainment Pty Ltd. Have 6 months to reply to the information request.
  9. Mounting points on camelback. Trimming isn't always added because it is required. Trimming connection points are sometimes added to give the park the option to add trim brakes therefore reducing maintenance cost.
  10. @GC Theme Parks Quick sign me up to your Facebook page. (sarcasm tag here) You’re at a minimum, 7 MONTHS BEHIND!
  11. @Gazza Don't worry, I'm sure it will be ok for you.
  12. My pass runs out in December and DW has given me NO reason to renew it. DW sampling Koala pee is not an exciting attraction I want to see.
