  1. @Brad2912 The post can be moved. It's ok, MW have already moved the post.
  2. That will do me. Only Push can leave me speechless.
  3. The painted line across the deck is the most interesting thing to me at the moment. Is this the boundary of the development or is it showing a service underground. I will be watching this line with great interest.
  4. & to add to AlexB, if people can touch it then they will destroy it. The theming in the queue of the Storm Coaster is a good example of people leaving there mark.
  5. Problem that I have with a walk through is it’s a onetime banger. I have seen some really good ones but once I’ve been through it, I don’t tend to line up again.
  6. No pennies left in Australia. The mint hasn't produced since 1964. I think everyone was just speculating where a roller coaster would fit. Ok push we get it! This is the 20 billion and 1 time you have said you want a walk through. Just in case no one knows yet. "PUSH WANTS A WALK THROUGH"
  7. Look at the guys vest. That builder built polar bear shores at SW and built GL. I don't think it is this ride but why could it not be moved to this location. Picture was of original concept only.
  8. Look it up Push. It was a ride that never went ahead. Not a ride for you but.
  9. Riddle me this- Yesterday Savvy14 saw three men sleeping on the street, of whom he thought were all homeless. Two of the men are bad people and one is a good person. Today Savvy14 sees one of the men he saw yesterday, in a big house. This man owns the house. Today the three men gave their statements: Man A says, “Today I am homeless.” He gave no statements about yesterday or tomorrow. Man B says, “Tomorrow I will be homeless.” He gave no statements about today or yesterday. Man C says, “Yesterday I was homeless.” He gave no statements about Today or tomorrow. If you assume their statements are true, which man is the imposter?
  10. Driving to work today I noticed the boys from Logan City Demolitions turning up to MW. Time for the boys with their big toys, I think.
  11. I'm trying to tune into this conversation but I can’t follow it. (I'm at Sea World now. Just went past the old fun pool on the monorail and it all looks intact so far. Water has been drained from the pools though. I'll try to get some photos shortly.) What is this new attraction push? Title “Sea World New Attraction 2016 “ What I know now. 1. Pool empty. 2. Crane in carpark 3. The_Ninga_59 should stay off pdonline. 4. No photos of pool with no water in it.
  12. I'm with @Brad2912 on this one. @Levithian Why do you think a coaster would need an OPW? If you go back to Storm Coaster it confirms village building procedure for new developments. Storm Coaster- July Applications lodged – August Demo started – January First footings stated to be formed up. – February first coaster parts stated arriving on site. So six months after works first started on site too first parts started rolling up. New Coaster November Applications lodged- February Demo started- Footings to come then parts will start to arrive.
  13. @joz Your theory would work if the track had no corners. @The Sunlander which side of the track is longer?
  14. Well we may now have some certainty about what the building demolition works were for... Looks that way. @djrappa I wonder if this goes with your timeline on when we would see some action.
  15. @pushbutton I'm surprised you like this one pushy. No. 1 No theming. No.2 It’s not in a shed.
  16. @Inverted you also appear in an Ausparks clip, in the same spot. You had T-bone on the left and Ausparks behind you.
  17. Lol silly me. I thought you didn't want to spoil an old ride for someone who had never seen it but the would be spoiler hide or whatever you call it.
  18. what's going on? Last week it was me and this week it's AlexB getting told to shorten our response. Richard do you need us all to chip in some cash to purchase some more storage space?
  19. @AlexB is it "Reveal hidden contents" day and I didn't get the memo.
  20. No way would that keep Push happy. Even if you stuck it in the biggest ass shed. Even if it was so dark that you couldn’t see your own hand. Push would not be happy. Push would say “I wish it didn’t go so fast”, I wish I had smellavision”, “I wish it wasn’t so high” and I wish it didn’t have hills”.
  21. The problem that I have with queues is I get bored. If I wait 1 hour in a MW line I think, F this but I can spend 2 hours in a Disney line and not think much about it. The key to me is movement. Every time I get into a Disney line it feels like I’m moving. I don’t get the chance to get too bored because I am doing something by moving. MW queues on the other hand don’t move. So now Skeet is stuck inline and it's not moving. Skeet thinks F this. It’s hot, the person in front of me smells and the 12 year old girls behind me won’t shut. To top it off the line looked like it was a 30min wait when I first lined up but I didn’t know that there were 100’s of more people in front of me in a virtual line from outer space.
  22. I would love to see that too but going on MW current record they would stuff up the operation of any new ride. The problem I have with fast passes is it affects other guest experiences. MW & DW can only accommodate so many guest per ride a day. If a fast pass rider ends up with an extra 10 rides a day then it takes the 10 rides away from other guest. If the parks need to make this extra money I think putting up ticket prices and running on a Disney system would be better. Fast Pass is like when you realise your Tim Tam packet now have one less in the packet it but you still have to pay the same price as you did before. So what happens next year? Dose Arnott’s put up the price or do they remove another Tim Tam from the packet?
  23. The reason I ask the question and I could be wrong is- I’m just using the Logride as an example because what I’m talking about is over accentuated on this ride. If the Logride had platforms on the other side of the load station would it be quicker, slower or the same to move a log on? I know most of the time they don’t run an extra staff at the unload area but if they did would it be better to have that person in the load area getting people onto the log. You wait to load looking back at the ride watching the ride stop, guest get out and then it has to get going again. If it just had one stopping area then that would remove the log having to stop and start again. I’m think the reason why you never have a log ready to go is that over the years logs have been removed and not replaced. So where ride is easy to get off and not complicated like the motor coaster, would it not be quicker to have the staff member helping with the load and opening the gates as soon as it arrives? If I remember correctly I think this is how the Thunderbolt ran in the beginning. Richard you don't need to re-answer my post, you pretty much answered my post while I was writing the post and getting myself a beer. It’s like we have a connection and you read my mind. LOL
  24. Thanks Richard. I agree with your shout for 1 rider can be a time waster. Having a train loaded in dispatch and waiting for 1 person to push past 40 people is slow. Just last week when I went on WWF they pulled me and my buddy trough the line to fill a boat. The problem with that is by the time we got to the boat they had to dispatch the next boat empty because of the boats started lining up. I think the organisation of riders before they are loaded onto the ride is the most important thing to do to reduce times. Another random skeet question for anyone that knows. When a Roller Coaster has a separate unload and dispatch area, does this make a difference in reducing queue times?
