  1. MW only having 2 big rides open. ShakeShack "It's fine" ShakeShack " Look at DW"
  2. This is the problem with Gold Coast parks. They think it is OK to reduce the customer experience, if the other park is doing it.
  3. OK. Not saying DCSV is the pinnical of MW theming. I'm saying it's the min. standard, I judge MW by. It's the preshow to the ride, what MW once did really well. It just turned out the preshow ended up being better then the ride and MW has given up on the area. I'm always surprised DC keeps signing off on this cheap theming. @red dragingets it.
  4. The theming for the Flash devalues MW as a theme-park. DC Super- villains is the standard MW set, anything less is a backwards step.
  5. You release it when you have nothing positive to talk about.
  6. No, I haven't seen the geotech report for Leviathan. Building to a slab for a wooden coaster is not uncommon and doesn't tell us what is going on underneath.
  7. It's an interesting foundation structure because of the combination a raft slab and pier foundation in one. Rivals has pier foundations where Leviathan was built on a raft slab.
  8. I don't find it to be best practice because it creates maintenance. The only element you need on the GC to start concrete cancer is air. Air contains moisture, salts and oxygen, all the ingredients you need for rust. The cold joint gives a direct path to the steel, so you have to seal it if you want to guarantee not to cause rust.
  9. I can't see the point of adding cold joints to the footings. Seems like backwards engineering. 🤷‍♂️
  10. Damm you @Tricoart I've been thinking it's Thursday all day. I don't care what you say, I'm still doing thirsty Thursday tonight.
  11. The major slab pour, is planned to happen today.
  12. You wouldn't think the ride has a limited life expectancy because, track wise, there isn't much track to replace when required. Thunderbolt, Arkham Asylum and Sea Viper all removed because of track issues. I believe the life expectancy will be based on if people ride it.
  13. It was, you just must go back and read some trip reports to refresh your memory. Most of us thought, DW looked like a dump, but we didn’t believe the rides were being dangerously neglected. We were wrong and people died. Hopefully history doesn’t repeat.
  14. Defiantly looks like it would be worth a trip to ride it.
  15. This isn't me agreeing with the placement: Because Leviathan requires year round maintenance yon can see why, SW would want its new maintenance shed, close to Leviathan.
