Coils_Park

Okay, you might not know this already, but... I don't like this park. If you were able to delete posts, I'd do that and create a new one, starting from opening day in 1989. Heck, I even want to push the opening date back to around 1980 or something. But you can't delete posts. When I started, I knew I messed this up really bad. REALLY bad. I don't think anyone likes the fact I started doing it in 2002 instead of opening day, that must have confused a lot of people. The park in general just looks terrible and the storyline is awful. The rides seem unfit for the park. A Giant Frisbee opening in 2002 seems so unrealistic. At the top of this page, I did a couple pictures of opening day. The park looked awful and it was way too small. Pretty much everything is wrong and I want to start again. With a better storyline. With a better layout. With more realistic rides in their date. With more detail in general. WIth better stations. Restaurants. Better coasters. More realistic ponds and trees. I think you now know how much I want to start again. When I made this account, I thought to myself that I would make the best park ever and ended up completely failing trying to do it. I wanted to push my limits but I just slipped. I want to make another BETTER version of Coils Park, starting in the opening date, with a completely different storyline and better detail, I'd actually push my limits that time.

When half your questions on a website are about coasters and your username is a roller coaster name... http://www.rrrather.com/

The CS looked absolutely HIDEOUS, I know. So I decided against a CS park and am now making one without CS, so everyone can download it! 2005: Lakes, Sci-Fi and Chaos 24th July 2005 It's finally 2005. Last season was an absolute nightmare for the park. Curious for what happened this year, I checked on the website. It's back to being all colourful! Today will be a great day... I drove up and the sign said "Coils Park to your right, have a super-fabuolous day!" The sign changes every year, ha ha. Now to actually visit the park. R.I.P Ultradips. Anyway, I see a new Mountain Hang... a BLUE one?! Kind of a weird picture, but it's something. The entrance was back up to £15. Also, the new Mountain Hang is peeking at the back! It's a very weird entrance, after you go through the gates, you're inside this weird building with an entertainer wandering through here every now and then. The torches and building design look similar to the ones in Thrillville: Pirate Adventure, a park in the world-famous Thrillville chain. When you exit, three information booths greet you that sell maps and umbrellas, with the staff giving information. When it was my go, they HAD to mention Ultradips and the fire... UGH! Wait, I though they would knock out Orange Disco for the new Mountain Hang... I also said that Orange Disco was temporary, but this doesn't seem to be the case now. The Bamboo Eatery is sometimes quite crowded, but it's really nice in there. I heard that half the wall fell down after a large fight between teenagers and adults started because one of them shoved another in to the water. They both fell in, fought each other and then security guards dragged them out and then one of them kicked the guard super hard in the leg, making him fall to the ground. The teenage and adult group started a huge brawl while others tried to help the guard, who only sustained a back and a head injury, along with a broken leg. He recovered a couple weeks later, looking absolutely fine like nothing happened. He even likes to talk about the mayhem and how he even blacked out for a few seconds. After that, he worked as a ride operator. The fight was still going on and it was complete mayhem. People throwing others into water, smashing them into the Bamboo Eatery and barging through the new Mountain Hang's queue, resulting in many splashing into the water. Kids were screaming at the top of their voices and shouted for help while some got into a huge team and the fighters got what they deserved - getting drenched in freezing cold water. In a nutshell: People of all ages fought and people of all ages defended. Bags, phones and photos float and sink in the water. Six people died in the fight and everyone who was seen fighting were thrown to the ground by police and arrested. Others who tried to hurt the police couldn't, because about seventy police officers and forty medics were on the scene (crowds and staff as well). This madness happened in May and the Bamboo Eatery re-opened in late June. It really is a nice place. ...but the only problem is that it has no toilets. This is Mountain Ha--- The Lake Thing. Plans originally said that the ride would be around a mountain, but it soon turned into a water-themed ride. The restraints are REALLY soft. Like that security guard, I blacked out at the very last turn and a ride operator woke me up, saying it's common to black out on the ride. I guess that's just what a swinging coaster does. Near the end it goes into a short brake run to slow down the car a little bit. The next bit is very 'intimidating' how the ride goes through these turns very low to the ground. Now to investigate the new station and stuff for Thunderstruck. The station looks very nice, to be honest. Inside Thunderstruck's station, with one train flying through the corkscrew Thunderstruck I asked why they were sending an empty train, some people were sick absolutely EVERYWHERE so they didn't operate the cars with the sick on. It was then down for about twenty to thirty minutes to clean up the spill. The Lake Thing Another new ride was Carousel, next to a very wavy path A weird dome thing next to the new Hydroponic Restaurant Chaos is another new ride, looks interesting. It's the most expensive ride in the park, with a price of eight tokens for one rider (one token is 50p). Bionic Spinner is second with seven, then Thunderstruck, Pink Disco and The Lake Thing with six. Adventure River and Thunderstruck The Hydroponic Restaurant. This place is more crowded than the Bamboo Eatery. People ordering in the restaurant Weird plants are everywhere, as well as adults casually walking through lights and dropping litter next to a bin. #ClassicRCT A close-up of a plant I guess they're trying to advertise The Lake Thing with this model of a squid/octopus attacking a ship and the ship is going down. At least it's something to put in an empty lake. This is the entrance, Hydroponic Restaurant and the new building that contains Bionic Spinner. They made it so you can only see the ride if you're on it. Other than that, you get very limited views off ride. The park has now confirmed Pink Disco is a part of Clown Town. Happycopters is nowhere to be seen. I forgot to bring a park map, sorry... Bye anyway!

Well, why isn't Richard doing something to Pipeline to fix the rough experience? Then BOOM, park saved.

Coaster-Force has a video of a ride called Windstarz by Zamperla: Offride: Onride:

Haven't ridden many... My favourite is between the Millennium at Fantasy Island (Odyssey was closed on my visit), Rage at Adventure Island and Colossus at Thorpe Park (only one I rode at Thorpe Park).

1. Is a 'half-pipe' coaster 2. 21m tall 3. Made by Intamin Nemesis Inferno, Thorpe Park

They did that so fast... Wow.

Blacking out on a B&M invert three times. (true story) What's worse than blacking out on a B&M invert three times?

I know I said this was one of my favourite roller coasters when I posted in that 'Say hi!' thread. But now I've changed my mind. OzIris. I was 12 at the time in around March or February and we went on a Parc Asterix trip. I got to ride OzIris about six or seven times but every time I just blacked out two or three times. EVERY RIDE. Because of this, I actually don't really like OzIris as I just can't get the chance to wake up and enjoy it. I enjoyed Goudurix more. To be honest, when I rode it, it was absolutely fine. *hides behind concrete shield* But when I get the chance to go to Parc Asterix again, I'll see how OzIris is. Note that it was my first time on an inverted coaster.

Don't whine at me over the awful footer placements. The footers seriously don't go well at all with Gadget's supports. So, the last few days have been pretty tough for me. It took me absolutely forever to find the camera and even a bit of hacking to get the pictures on my PC, so the quality comes out really good. When I did eventually find it, I saw that they had no shots of the entire park, just the rides... So, let's put out these pictures! I also had to edit the photos heavily to try and get the best colour possible! This is Waveswinger. They took around sixty to seventy photos of it, nearly half of the camera's memory! When I asked them why there were so many, they just said 'We wanted a good one'. Not the best of answers, but what would you expect from a 112 year old and a 101 year old? Merry-Go-Round was a standard Carousel ride from RJA's Old-School Rides. They took sixteen photos of it. This was Big Slide. There was quite a long queue all the time and kids were constantly caught trying to do it a second time without queuing up again. Sigh, memories, memories... Dippy Mice or Dippymice or whatever. This was and is a very infamous and widely discussed ride... Discussions included its new location in ColossalLand, how it has been voted the coaster with the most airtime, its freaking over-the-top intensity... so much to say about it! That's all the decent pictures I could find on. Oh and the park dropped its very strict 'no copyright' rule, that no longer exists! However, I'm still not stealing from others. Now, for Coils Park. I visited the website just for the prices and all of the website was just black and other dark colours. It used to be all bright and bubbly! Now, it's just all dark. The price had dropped again to TEN POUNDS. It used to be higher. With all the black, a less lively logo and a price drop, I know 2004 isn't a good season for Coils Park... I rang them wanting to know about this. I wouldn't do this, but I really wanted to know about this NOW! I rang them and I asked. All they replied was 'Past events. Anything else you'd like to know?' I said 'No' and they hung up without an 'okay' or 'bye' or anything... Something must be seriously wrong with the park. I don't know anything. I'm almost lost for words. But I still can't wait to visit... When I started driving up to the park, the signs with directions to Coils Park turned from rainbow and happy colours to... black and grey and a tiny bit of white. Instead of saying 'Coils Park is to your right! We hope you have a lovely stay!' to 'Coils Park right'. I didn't know why until I saw it... it. ...WHAT... I immediately knew what nightmares Coils Park had been through in the off-season. I saw a new Revolution. I visited in March, by the way. No Mountain Hang. Only half of Ultradips. No RotoDrop. No Corkscrew. Blue Scream has new stuff. At the entrance, I saw a big grey wall blocking off views. Some of it had fallen off. It said "New companies like .......... and lots more are re-designing Coils Park. We have done Blue Scream, now known as .........! Next we did Corkscrew and added ........ on Ultra..... Suddenly, a train on Co....rew had stalled in the exit station in testing and the lift hill malfunctioned, sending the other tra.....super speed up the hill.

Blue Scream is now Thunderstruck, a new Revolution called Orange Disco and a new helicopter ride called Happycopters, but nobody seems happy now. Destruction photos that happened in the off season Destruction Destruction R.I.P Ultradips Total destruction Station crush A new ride, Leaping Logs Happycopters, a temporary ride. Orange Disco is temporary as well. Orange Disco sat next to a new cafe, the Bamboo Eatery. Orange Disco was on this mountain-type terrain, could this be the planning for the brand new Mountain Hang? Thunderstruck, the new Blue Scream. Goodbye, Ultradips. Goodbye, every other ride that has fallen to the fire.

WARNING: LONG TEXT AHEAD. This is the single most annoying thing ever... Schoolkids... This the story. I am in a secondary school (my third year in this torture chamber). Being the 14 year old coaster enthusiast I am, I randomly ask people in my year what the best coaster they have ridden is... 90% of the time they say Stealth at Thorpe Park. Although I haven't ridden Stealth yet, I find it so crazy they prefer a 12 second ride over a 127ft wing coaster with epic near misses and good theming. I just don't understand. I ask them what their favourite amusement/theme park is. 99% of the time it's Thorpe Park. Thorpe Park. Thorpe Park. THORPE PARK!! Being the 'know-it-all' about theme and amusement parks in my school, they then started to ask me questions. Stupid ones. VERY stupid ones. They ask me "How fast does Stealth at Thorpe Park go?" and I just say "80mph in 2.3 seconds". They are genuinely amazed on how I know how fast it goes. IT SAYS IT AT THE ENTRANCE!!! They then ask me the most idiotic things like "How many pieces of track are there on Saw?" and "How many stones are in the park?" and other ridiculously impossible questions. I say "I don't know!" and then they say how I actually know nothing about Thorpe Park due to their 'questions'. The sad thing is, 75% of the people in my year have been to Thorpe Park three or four or more times! AND I'VE ONLY BEEN THERE ONCE! And I already know more then them! On Saturday the 14th of November (my 14th birthday), I went to Adventure Island Southend and the Sea-Life Centre. I wore the wristbands ever since (for now). It was the last lesson on Friday 20th (Maths) and near the end of the day, a group of boys and girls spotted a wristband on me. They wanted me to show it and I showed Adventure Island's logo on the wristband and PEOPLE ASKED IF IT WAS THORPE PARK. First of all, ALL of you in my year know ABSOLUTELY NOTHING about Thorpe Park! You have been there fifty times and you didn't know they don't do wristbands? You don't know the difference between Thorpe Park's logo and Adventure Island's logo? This is how INTO THORPE PARK you are! Thorpe Park is the ONLY theme/amusement park you all EVER talk about! They don't even think about other awesome parks like Chessington, Alton Towers, Drayton Manor, Brighton Pier, Oakwood, Pleasurewood Hills, Paulton's Park, Blackpool Pleasure Beach and MANY more epic parks! When I name theme parks outside the UK they listen for about five seconds and then completely blank me out. At lunchtime, the 'Base' opens so we play on the computers, do homework, watch videos, chill out or just play games. I like to watch videos of rides. I watch a video of the TIme Machine at Adventure Island. People ask "Is that at Thorpe Park?" I watch a video of the top ten fastest coasters in the world. People ask "Is that coaster at Thorpe Park?" "Is that Thorpe Park?" "Is that Thorpe Park?" "IS THAT THORPE PARK?!" I watch a video of Stealth at Thorpe Park, bored out of my mind watching random Coaster-Force (nice try) videos. People say "OMG THAT'S STEALTH THE BEST RIDE EVER IT GOES LIKE 50MPH!!!" (actual quote) I watch a video of The Swarm. Nobody's interested. Slammer? Nemesis Inferno? Saw: The Ride? Colossus? Rush? Zodiac? Vortex? X? Flying Fish? NO. NO. NO. NO. NO. Everything everyone's interested about is Stealth. Stealth and Stealth. They think they're a know-it-all about Thorpe Park and others. But in reality, it's like they've never even heard of it. Here are the two logos... Apparently they don't know the difference between these. AGH! Rant finally over...

GAH! The terrain is so annoying!! This game should be called 'TrollerCoaster Tycoon 3: Terrain Trouble'!!!
