I think you missed what Brad was saying @FoolishMortal999. The reused mazes from last year were licensed, and the 'new' mazes were also licensed. So you should've said, you think the NEW mazes will be in Dodgems and Show Stage.

^Yeah that's correct about the short film. And it's been said on here somewhere that the Showstage is staying and will be used for events, but the signage that's at the top of the show stage will be removed and replacing with the name of the area/ride.

Yeah, that's what it says in the email.

Took this this morning. More progress to the stadium area. You can see large steel framework and the begging of a ramp and the back of it. There is also a massive crane on site lifting steel into place. To the left of the area there was a lot of timber panelling, and I mean a lot. Looks like it might be cladding for the stadium, because it didn't appear to be timber to build a frame, due to its colouring and length.

^If you've bought one in the last couple of weeks, 30th June 2017.

Yeah this had been discussed before, but isn't possible for the exact reasons stated by Brad. I know someone mentioned that sound stages won't be used this year cos of filming, but I'm sure that was said last year cos of Pirates of the Carribiean, but they did end up getting used. Is there any evidence that the sound stages aren't being used. If they aren't used, I can't imagine where they'd put the new mazes. Scooby-Doo queue area is to small. Dodgems and Sound stage are for last years mazes, and the new building behind WWF doesn't seem big enough for too large mazes.

The park has really become just one big maze. If the Skylink was still there it would have made things so much easier.

What did you reply with @The_Ninja_59?

I just think it would need to drop down for the same reason the claw has a drop down floor. So taller riders who's feet do or almost touch the ground won't be injured when swinging through the station.

Does anyone know how the floor for the ride works? I assume it slops down under the seats and then lowers down before the ride stars. Is this right?

Can't wait to see what they do to these buildings, hopefully it's as good as what they've done to the ride so far.

I know the park had their celebrations today, but I wish they made a bigger deal about it. When I went to Universal Studios Japan back in March they were celebrating their 15th anniversary, with a big sign out the front, promotions all around the park, a special parade, tonnes of merchandise, and multiple attractions to celebrate. I know it's Universal, and not saying they need to do it to that scale, but I feel like MW could have had a sign out the front like this one, promoting the celebration. An celebrations for a couple of weeks, rather than just the smaller banners down Main Street.

I'd imagine it would be a base colour. A colour booth fully teal would look pretty awful in my opinion. I imagine they are painting a similar print as seen on the rides tower.

TI update from nearmap:

Current progress of roof installation: The extent of the work is going much further than I thought it would, so it seems the only way to get through the park is to pass through COTD and then through NL

Hope this is close enough for you @skeetafly ?

The issue is POP, the way you have made us picture you, and the sassy comments, and making you come across as the best, and non of us mean anything, and unless we agree with you then you don't like it. Such as the post above. Rather than posting .gifs and trying to stand out, if you'd provided constructive or commented on people's opinions then maybe you wouldn't get so many dislikes. The other week you said you were signing off for good, but now you've come back, no better than before. So maybe you should stay signed off, or change the way you are on here.

^Yes it says that it's for all 3 parks, but it doesn't include all pass members, only if you upgrade your pass. I think this idea is great, particularly for holiday makers who get the 7 and 21 day pass, will make things a lot cheaper. When I go to the parks, I very rarely get food or drink there, but for those who do, this is a great idea. And I like really like the fast photos idea too, for the same reasons as I said above. Good thinking VRTP.

I seriously doubt that happened. Is the water even deep enough for boats to pass over someone?

That was based off the websites details of the ride, and a comment made on here. With posts or comments I make regarding things like this, I'll always say, "yet to be confirmed" or "we believe" or "to our knowledge", just so I don't state things that aren't true, as of yet. At one point, probably two years ago, I was contacted by DW administration because I had written something in a way that came across wrongly. All was good and I just had to edit the post, and then for a couple of months I was often let know by this staff member about news/info at the park, particularly leading up to the opening of TailSpin and was also invited to to official announcement event.

Thanks @iwerks. That's what I was trying to do with it. Keep it clean and get the updates and info across to people. Well if I ever move to one of those cities, I might start them up

@iwerks 'Gold Coast Theme Parks'

I to run a page, and have done for about 6 years now. When I first started it, the main reason for doing so was to simply provide regular information about the theme parks to those who don't use website like this one. I don't do it just to try and get more likes, but more to let people know what's happening and get them excited. Along with sharing some of the photos I've taken using my Cannon camera, because despite not always doing enough of it, I love photography. And with the number of pages now about the parks, I hope that by sharing some of their photos, it will allow the couple of thousand of followers my page has gotten over the years, they will follow the other pages, who can provide more often and up to date images, because at times I don't always get the chance to go to the park to get a photo.

I agree, the amount of new ages that I've come across, or info has been shared from another page, but then give it a few months and either the admin or the followers loose interest, mainly due to the lack of content on the page, or they are just taking exact posts from other pages, which people have seen already. There are probably up to ten good pages which are useful and/or popular. I think @Theme Park Girl and @Slick are doing a really good job. And despite me not overly liking the TPSN guy and the way he can be, he has over the years provided images of construction updates, and general things around the park. But now as more and more people on here are heading to the parks, and posting photos, his page isn't as useful to us, as it has been in the past.

^There are cameras, but they might just be a live stream, and not necessarily recorded.
