Would anyone really miss HWSD fpr a few weeks if they just used the arena for a couple of mazes?
Yes I know it's a crowd soak, this isn't really a serious suggestion, it's just a nice big area to fit stuff in.
I would assume the UTT is same place as last year, but I'm really hoping it's not because last year's tour kinda sucked.

Here you go, kids, the accident report.
The facebook page Amusement Ride Accidents has gone through and highlighted key points.
This is also their caption:
Quote[August 21, 2017] There will be no criminal charges in the Ohio State Fair ride malfunction that killed an 18-year-old and injured seven others. Authorities said 18-year-old Tyler Jarrell of Columbus died when a piece of the swinging and spinning ride snapped during the fair's opening night on July 26. After reading the report, prosecutor Ron O’Brien determined there was not enough evidence to proceed with a criminal case against any involved parties.
Read the full 62 page report here - with accounts from over 80 witnesses who were on and near the ride when the accident happened. All photos have been omitted due to their graphic nature. Key sentences have been highlighted in yellow. Keep in mind, some of the more interesting information is in the middle and end of the document.

In line with that reasoning, I asked a few people off-forum what the first movie/franchise was that came to mind when they heard "iconic horror movie". The results were:
Psycho
HalloweenFriday the 13th
Nightmare on Elm stSaw
ChuckyEvil dead
Texas Chainsaw Massacre
Exorcist
Alien
Scream
The Shining
BirdsFreddy vs Jason
Blair Witch Project
I've crossed out the ones that have been done, or close enough to being done before. That said, there's some pretty good ideas among them.
Turns out my theory was wrong. Damn.
Wouldn't have minded an Exorcist and Scream maze.

Please, elaborate your point here. What could this be?
As mentioned many times previously, the set for the TVC (TeleVision Commercial)

Should have filmed it at Dreamworld and just made everyone use their imagination.

Because if I didn't ruin it for everyone, someone else will. And since this guy made it public someone was bound to stumble upon it soon enough.
This year's mazes are:
- Conjuring 2
- From Dusk Til Dawn
- Halloween
- SAW

Something to do with hot things and discomfort to riders IIRC.
I didn't realise I was making people uncomfortable. I might have to ride less often.

This area looked amazing last year for such a small space.

Very True with that, I just wanted to dream, would a eurofighter be good for dreamworld
"Possible" new ride/s for dreamworld/whitewaterworld
And yet your first suggestion was a B&M. (Thanks @AlexB)
Also White Water World is not a single word.

Weird, last time I rode SE the water effect wasn't working (That was in 2014 though)
Imagine that. A park fixing an effect somewhere in a three year time frame.

I haven't tried any real building recreations before, so this one's my first try.
Guest services at Movie World.
Gonna force myself to keep doing these, I've been relying upon the workshop too much.
Nice work. Now if you could do the rest of main street for me that would allow me to continue work on the park

...kinda thought Richard addressed this in the article? The modelling gets performance accurate to within x%, trimming gets the forces to intended levels?
That doesn't tell me what changes though. I just find it odd that with all the tech available today that can design this stuff in the first place that in the end, it still comes down to "let's see what happens when we build it".

Out of curiosity for those of you who know how this stuff works, what magically changed between all their computer modelling and testing to actual construction that results in these trims having to be added to slow it down and reduce the forces?

TLDR, it's far wiser to make sure the train definitely makes it through the course and refine the speed to optimise the experience than to build it without tolerances & have a train not come back at all in the first place.
Got it. Add LIMs to make it faster. 👌👍

Every month I have to call and pay manually. They claim not to be able to debit a chq account despite seemingly being the only company in Aus that has this issue.
Confirmed with the bank that they aren't even receiving DD requests from debit success. Confirmed all numbers are correct etc.
Conclusion: debit success are shit and VRTP needs a new payment provider.

@Reanimated35 I just watched multiple videos and this is the list of things that didn't work
Entry smoke
Person at the top window
Barricade arm going up
Star lord projection
Some lights on the ship
Some lighting effects/projections
So most of the really good stuff. I really wish the park would restore the ride back to open day standards. I know it won't happen due to time/budget, but damn it would be nice to see it happen to all the rides.

JL had all its effects working
Watch the POV on YouTube from when it opened and you'll see how wrong you are about "all" the effects working.
There's effects in there I would be willing to bet the majority of members on here didn't know once existed.

Looking forward to getting down there tomorrow for a look. Hope to catch it testing.
What a wonderful update. Thank you.

None of it's mine, it's really just stuff for the parkz forum. Im going to delete them once the shows over
So none of the videos are yours but you made the decision to re upload them to your channel instead of sharing and crediting the actual owners of the videos?

@djrappa it's been hit and miss for me. Maybe just over 50% of the time I have been asked to produce the admission ticket as well as the UTT pass.
Seems that the later you show up the less they care as they're in a hurry to get everyone in.

@Reanimated35 Sorry I was still editing my post when you replied. I indeed did see the "Park entry not included in The Ultimate Terror Tour" statement above the buy tix button. I just wanted to confirm that it meant park entry to Fright Nights, rather than park entry during the day?
It includes neither.

Yes and no. Visiting a driving range has been something on my to do list for ages but never got around to doing.
Having it at/next door to movie world just makes it more convenient and the ability to visit a new and modern range is a nice drawcard too.
