  1. There has only been one train for the last week or so... So I doubt that is the reason... Perhaps it is just the individual staff members preferring to run it this way... Would be interested in knowing what the procedure actually is or if there even is one and it is left up to individual staff discretion... Imagine getting the staff today and then heading back later with different staff who don't do that...
  2. 3 friends of mine work for 3 different trade companies... Brother is an electrician... Wife works in childcare... Father works for a consultancy company... Mother is a lecturer... Sister in law is a lawyer... Brother in law is a tradie... The only days we can get together over the next 2 months is Christmas Day and Boxing Day and even then my father, brother, 2 friends and myself are on call or could be called in to work... The only places that shut down that week are public servants and people who work 9 to 5 behind a desk...
  3. Interesting... Unless they started this today... Stood as the front person in the single rider queue for 8 cycles as there were no seats left vacant from the general queue...
  4. Well now they aren't being careful not to damage that structure... And why wouldn't there be any work between 22nd and January... Most businesses operate every day except Christmas and New Years...
  5. OMG... Do people not read all the way through the whole article... "The remaining structure of Eureka Mountain Mine Ride is set to be completely removed before the end of the year." I mean sure they might not but it says it right in the article...
  6. Let's be real though... Who is honestly surprised by this? Disappointed sure... But genuinely surprised...
  7. I think I can help you out here... It means that... Tail Spin will not open today... Buzzsaw will not open until next Monday... Escape from Madagascar will not open until the following Monday... So if you would like to experience any of these attractions it might be best to delay your attendance at the park until a time that the attractions you are wanting to experience are operating again...
  8. Righto... I see what you mean there... However... Given this has only just appeared before school holidays and we know how bust these parks are usually during this time there is an very high chance there is going to be a queue most of the time... If you happen to turn up and there isn't then hooray... But majority of the time there will be and you will have the minimum 20 minute wait...
  9. According to that release from October the Haunted House was going to be changed anyways so... Slow news day?
  10. The Haunted House is above their store in Surfers... Not the Draculas Restaurant...
  11. Think a horror version of Ripleys... Or a FN maze with no scarers...
  12. Smoke screen not working last night and final screen still out... Good to see they have patched Cyborg's Glasgow smile though...
  13. Was at the park last night and the number of families that head to the kids area and straight for JDS is always amazing... Everything else is ignored... There were more adults / parents on it than kids and most of them didn't have a kid on with them... Having a child who is obsessed with cars (a phase most young boys go through), we spend a good couple of hours at this attraction each attendance and get to interact with our son as well... Am I sad that the great attraction that was LTRR is gone and I cannot share that with my son... Yes... Just like I am about Gremlins, PASS, Maverick, Young Einstein/Harry Potter, BATR (1 not 2)... But each attraction that have replaced these things (Except Maverick) we still can enjoy as a family...
  14. And this sort of crap (from society) is why I left childcare...
  15. Umm... One lap takes 20 minutes... Minimum... So this signage is correct... If there are delays with guests or issues at a stop then it will take longer... Guess that makes this thread a moot point doesn't it?
  16. We were supposed to be going to MW tomorrow... Little Mr 5yo saw these this morning and we have a sudden change of plans... TBH though I sort of want to go running through there... Nothing like all the parents sitting around watching / ignoring their kids and me in there playing, interacting and generally enjoying spending time with their child... Not just confined to doing so in WB Kids Splash Zone anymore
  17. But surely locals would use it more often and that would warrant the same pricing...
  18. So... Put wallet and keys in locker at 10am... Get stuff out at 1pm for lunch ($4)... Put stuff back in locker at 2pm... Get it out at 5pm ($4)... Total of $8... Just saved $2 on the $10 all day lockers...
  19. I wholeheartedly agree... But I do wonder... How many people not paying attention while staring at their phones is it going to take before they are removed again? Regarding the changes, it is good to see so many of them taking place so quickly. It is also fantastic to see that current upper management is taking note of things that have constantly been discussed / complained about (not just here but in park as well) and rectifying these issues. Staff around the park seemed that much happier on Wednesday while I was there and it really carries through to the guest experience. Can't wait to see what else is in the pipeline...
  20. Not necessarily... I can't ride Superman but have been on DC Rivals multiple times...
  21. As many here know I put on a fair bit of weight after surgery a few years back... Prior to that I was able to go on every ride at MW... I have been progressively losing weight again and I constantly check back with the rides to see if I can ride them again... From most forgiving to least... Justice League 3D Arkham Asylum Green Lantern Wild West Falls Scooby Doo Batwing Spaceshot DC Rivals Hypercoaster Superman Escape Doomsday Destroyer At this point in time it is only Superman Escape and Doomsday Destroyer I have yet to get on... If I put on a bit more weight I would not be on DC Rivals... (For info I am 178cm tall, weigh 130kg, waist 140cm, chest 130cm, shoulder width 50cm)... Hope that helps
