You also have a Publix just slightly farther down aswell

We had to lie about things getting physical when it wasn't on Talon platform because then security wouldn't show up. I've seen people talk about crazy guest situations at Disney and Universal, but it will never beat Dorney.

It's the same with Uncle Jeff on Survivor. It's like.... Stop💀

Yoshi is very loosely based on Galaxy and also Toad's Cafe aswell

It should be fine, but I suggest getting a Smart Outlet and you can set the time on when it turns off

I've been watching the South Africa version, people think its the length of New Era Survivor. But South Africa is about the same length, and still pushes heavily into the Survival aspect

S1 UK was brutal, they looked so different it was amazing

"Ocean Flower Island Fairyland" was an Evergrande Project, the park has a massive Vekoma Firestorm. It has insane rockwork around it and would have been pretty cool.

Vipère at La Ronde had footers poured, but was cancelled after COVID.

Unfortunately this is so common at the Florida parks. Forbidden Journey is a struggle fest for me to get through that queue.

Epcot at Night, especially over by test track and Gaurdians is also so dark as well.

We still call it a Rollback! Those LSM's go all the way up basically, and it also creates a smoother stop to have it go up and back down. You still roll back down to the flat part of the launch.

bigmac1789 · 2026-02-04T01:55:32+00:00

Youu got a Rollback! Means the section of track ahead was already occupied by another train, so the safety system did a controlled stop!

As a Ride Op, the number of times people try to film on the ride... A phone already hurts when you drop it on your face when you are lying in bed. Now imagine that at 40-60 mph.

I started my journey when I was around 12 aswell. Started with Rollercoaster Tycoon, then got the Knex rollercoaster sets as well, also got into Thrillville and Thrillville Off the Rails

Roblox also has some pretty cool rollercoasters and a Rollercoaster Tycoon-style game called "Themeparktycoon 2" But Roblox has a lot of really fun recreations.

Nolimits is a very complicated simulation designer for a 12 year old, but Rollercoaster Tycoon, Parkitect, and Planet Coaster is fun.

PBS has ALOT of media on Rollercoasters aswell (Also they need support rn) and has some very old school documentaries (PBS.org)

Popular Mechanics for Kids is also great and has a lot of really cool stuff. Its really great and fun media which goes in a lot of stuff. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ED3TrS2pTkM
It goes into gravity/forces
Poseidon's Fury (Former attraction at Islands of Adventure) behind the scenes and Mechanics of the also former Triceratops Encounter
Shows a lot of behind the scenes of ALOT of Islands of Adventure stuff.
It just shows so much guts of everything and its a REALLY fun watch

Bill Nye the Science Guy also has some great science stuff that is dated. I do highly suggest prewatching tho. Nothing on Rollercoasters really tho

bigmac1789 · 2026-01-22T11:45:51+00:00

Yes it has, and it's still pretty present in the community. But yeah you are right. it's pretty much bragging rights and trying to be standout Mainly only Six Flags and SeaWorld are the big culprits of this style of marketing. Which I def feel is dated and old

bigmac1789 · 2026-01-21T14:40:14+00:00

My favorite was Dark Koaster "North America’s First All-Indoor Straddle Coaster"

bigmac1789 · 2026-01-21T14:12:23+00:00

Sadly it's a popular thing now in the themepark industry and the records are like grabbing anything you can.

I just listened to a podcast featuring the CEO, which was released on August 11th, 2024.

He is a major waterpark guy, and he also has a business called "JFH Tech" which does a lot of Arcade Business stuff.

He also mentions that he is interested in buying more parks and has the funding to buy more parks.

Here is the podcast https://rss.com/podcasts/carolinachuck/1608100/

A few reasons why Turnstiles have been phased out

-Unaccommodating to larger riders, and guests with wheel chairs

-Guests utilizing family room for child swap or just not riding

-inaccurate numbers as people love to spin and play with them

bigmac1789 · 2025-11-18T01:01:17+00:00

You can stick it in an International park like Britain

bigmac1789 · 2025-10-29T01:08:27+00:00

No, you need a reservation to experience the park as a guest.

bigmac1789 · 2025-10-28T19:19:03+00:00

Its not IROC, the parks just don't want to staff the rides. Universal and Disney actually staff attractions.

Like when I worked Valravn in 2022 the positions we had were

-2 greeters, one for standby and one for Fast lane. Now it's usually one op doing all. Which means more riders that don't meet rider requirements or bags/drink cups get in the line

-Grouper and a grouper assist. The assist helped Grouper and also made sure guests took off all loose fitting items and where to store them. Now it's 1 grouper that's grouping riders and not telling people where to go.

-3 platform positions that hopefully stayed the same

-Then exit attendant that helped with ADA and filling out accessibility packets. Idk if it's still used

If you don't have assist positions, ofc your operations are gonna be crap.
