Why an upcharge? This is Dreamworld we are talking about! I want you guys to try and think of an Upcharge that is both value for money and exciting!

The poll and week 2 challenge will be posted tomorrow morning :-) Points will be allocated based on number of participants, so don't be to worried if you missed this week! Week 2 challenge teaser! Fright Nights

Well I assumed that the casings would fold out onto separate tracks. Like instead of lowering underneath the track, they would lower and fold out onto separate tracks. Do you know what I mean? Would be fairly easily assembled with a magnet system where the magnets disengage at a certain section of the ride, and then they reengage at Thr unload station. Secondly, I don't want you two scaring off other potential contestants by nit-picking their ideas! Lol. If it's going to be 10 weeks of people having to explain themselves then that's not much fun is it! Lol. What someone may not understand fully (the casings for instance), other people may get straight away. Keep this light guys, remember, we are not actually putting a proposal together to submit to DW) If we were, then gaz, your proposal would need to be completly reworked as your ride does not fit into the Eureka footprint (which was prt of the brief from DW) Back to it now then shall we?? Nate

That's awesome! I really like the idea of hiding the cart inside the vehicle! I'm assuming the casing would travel to the unload platform via a different route so it can be put back into position? Sounds really good mate

Cool idea Joz. Can you please post a name or your ride? Thanks !

Wow. Not sure what the past has shown us but it does not sound very promising. It's a bit weird but I'm a little sad I didn't get to say goodbye to the Riverride if in fact it isn't reopening. The Riverride script was the compulsory audition piece when I started at WVTP and the day I received that script in Thr mail was the start of a very exciting time in my life. Ill miss Foghorn Leghorn and roadrunner. I'll miss the earth drill. I'll miss the multitude of different looking Bugs Bunnys. On a side note, the rumor around the park on why all the bugs bunnies looked different was because WVTP approached many companies about building the animatronics for the ride. Each company was asked to produce a "test bugs" and then WVTP would decide on the company to go with based on the bugs they produced. WVTP then did the sneaky and decided to use all the prototype Buge Bunnies in the attraction, and that's why they all looked a little different to each other. I'm excited about The future though. The River Ride takes up a lot of space. I hope WVTP have something big in store that will fill the void which will be left by the river ride. Or, it could just be maintenance.. When Shrek 4D closed the maintenance page said it was "closed permanently to make way for a new attraction" or something along those lines. So maybe I will get to say bye to the river ride.

Nice work Gazza! I knew you'd come up with something! The competition is not over just yet though! :-) I'm sure we will see some more submissions before the cut off. Nate

Hi Gazza, Have edited the rules I was in two minds about either eliminating or points, and do agree with your case. So points it is. Anyone can post over the 10 weeks, and we can have a leaderboard. Some of the challenges are based on RL situations, and some of the challenges are completly out there. The challenges are fairly diverse and will allow a lot of creativity from different fields to come into play.

Ok, here is the week one challenge. Week One Open to everyone to submit an attraction! Please limit response to one post. The Eureka Mine Ride at Dreamworld has sat dormant for almost 4 years now, and Dreamworld has finally decided to use the space! Here's your challenge. Design a new attraction for the current space where the Eureka Mine Ride sits. Your attraction can be anything you like but cannot be an existing attraction at Dreamworld and must fit into the footprint. You cannot reopen the mine ride. Dreamworld are going all out with this attraction, and as such, it will be fully themed. Your attraction must have A name A detailed description of the attraction You may include photos if you wish Deadline for submissions is next Saturday the 6th of November at midnight. Anyone can compete, just limit your submission to one post. Forum members will then vote, and points will Be awarded. The rules are subject to change. Good Luck!

Hi ads, The polls were based on which rides and attractions voters must do or see while at a park. 54% of voters said that TI and PBS were must do attractions at th parks. The polls were a little confusing, but next time around I will make it more clear. Nate

Hi all, you may remember my polls a while back. Well I have the final results (based on polls ending two weeks following the posting) and here they are With voting now closed, Wild West Falls has been voted as the number one theme park attraction at the Gold Coast Themeparks. Only one vote seperated Wild West Falls from joint runners up, Superman Escape (Warner Brothers Movie World) and The Claw (Dreamworld). Rounding out the top 7 Theme park Attractions, Dreamworlds Giant Drop, Tower of Terror and Movieworlds Scooby Doo Spooky Coaster all tied, gaining 75% of the vote. The now closed Shrek 4D (Warner Brothers Movie World) was the highest rated show at the parks. Hollywood Stunt Driver, also at Warner Brothers Movieworld now receives top place by default, but only gathers 45% of the vote. Voting for the Best Animal Attraction also ended in a tie with Tiger Island at Dreamworld and Polar Bear Shores at Seaworld gathering 54% of the vote each. Overall Dreamworld had 10 attractions in the top 26. Movieworld, Seaworld and Wet 'n' Wild have 8, 7 and 1 respectively. I will run new polls after Christmas, to see how our opinions may have changed, adding the rides and shows missed, and the new additions to the parks. Nate
