Still amazing to me that they’ll invite out Facebook groups like the dreamworld times who have a sketchy past and have a reach of maybe a few hundred (if you’re lucky) and completely ignore Parkz, despite having tens of thousands of times more reach, all because of a grudge formed because @Richard isn’t gushingly positive. 🤷🏼‍♂️

It's more than just that, but it does make for a good story

I have never noticed this before, but because of the suns position I could see it. Was this track in the water around the river used to guide the paddle wheeler around, similar to how Disney does?

It was indeed

Turns out everyone has short memories. If enthusiasts looked through Parkz articles over the last few years they'd see It's the same old same old. But Because everyone's beloved Greg Yong is at top dog it looks like it is all smiles and roses.

Nah, we've been shitting all over DW and will continue to do so. The difference here is that DW decided to make some form of acknowledgement and apology. They make a good move, they get praised. They make a bad move, they get shit on. It's pretty simple honestly.

An apology letter has just gone out to all Passholders explaining the large number of rides down for maintenance.

Passholders have been given a free Winterfest Park After Dark entry as an apology gift.

All passholders? Aww. I guess that means my pass is expired or i'm been banned from the property. It's weird because i'd normally get 2-3 of the same email whenever they do a mailout

It's a reverse layout. You climb up the helix, go down the lift hill and hit a brake, causing whiplash

I'm still honestly surprised they knocked over the train shed, the amphitheatre and Hollywood Cottage but left in Blue Lagoon.

I'm pretty sure Blue Lagoon will be the last of old DW to be removed purely because they wont have a reason to do anything in that area for many more years.

Nothing to say they can be used on annual passes, and I doubt it can.

it can also only be used to the value of 50% of the standard cost of an activity/accommodation etc 

Covers half the price of a AP and then you can take the other $50 left and buy a burger in the park

It's easy to install that as the final pieces so you're right, we wont see it until much later

That serves only as a failed yeeting. Adventuredome knows how to yeet properly - you need to prepare the guests by removing their legs before they ride.

So MW should have first collaborated with the park up the road?

^It is when a large majority of the rest of the kids rides are also down at the same time. 

The entire ride was missing from the pad. They knew it wasn't going to be up. Probably 4 days prior to the due date, due to the weekend - its piss poor regardless of which ride it is, but especially because their kids offering right now is severely lacking.

So the one thing DW had going for them, they threw it out the window too?

When DW install new lights I'll praise them, private events happen and they've also tried to make night trade more of a thing, so bring on permanent install lights and do it properly. Actually I drove past at night the other night and had the thought that they should put some lights on Steel Taipan Construction since you really can't see it at night.

I'll praise them too, as long as the lights aren't something that's only visible from within the park/carpark at night. SW did an amazing job with lighting up Leviathan but it doesn't get seen that often. Rivals looks great from the highway because of the lighting package so if Steel Taipan doesn't have a lighting package eventually, i'll be very disappointed.

Again, what are people getting at here? You know that all the parks invest in having lighting right? MW also is open quite a lot at night compared to what they were historically, and far more than all the other parks. Why shouldn't they add lights?

Like SW adding lights to only be seen a few nights a year? It looks great but it's only useful when there's actually people in the park and it's turned on. 
Look, if DW had installed a fancy lighting package like that, I'd be shitting on them too. It would be great if it was a sign that the park was pushing for even more night events or the park being open longer but as always, the local residents stop any fun happening after 5pm.

Standing by for 'Parkz mods are biased' comments for expressing my opinion

I fully agree that the ride offerings at MW currently crap over anything the park has offered before. Yes we may have lost some classics and we may never see rides like them again but when you look at what we have now, we are pretty lucky.

Hey guys, we've got this amazing lighting package. You can only properly experience it about 4 times a year when we are open at night and have it running. We're the best right?
