  1. Why would pki inform the press in mid february if they had worries the waterpark wouldnt be open my the end of may. that seems insane, first of all, it is way to early to tell if it would be delayed by a time period that great that they would have to inform the papers, and second of all, that would be retarded becuase all it would do is give them bad press for people looking to get season passes and such.
  2. Yea but that wouldnt make logical sense, i mean i would guess from my experience at the park and talking to guests, that probably less than 5% of the people that go there are enthusiasts. I could be wrong, I'm just estimating. You get good after a while though...i can easily look over at the line for the front seat and tell you straight off The Bat who the enthusiasts would be. I'm not being a hater towards enthusiasts but i dont think that enough people would care to watch the show, i dunno though, what did you have in mind for an 'enthusiast' show?
  3. I dont think that drop zone or Face off will get paint jobs soon becuase they're realitively new. and plus i dont think the average guest notices that they dont look 100% good close up, becuase they dont stare at them for 60 hours a week like some of us. And just out of curiousity, how the hell do you paint drop zone.
  4. I think its more relevant than a HB parade.

    Its easy - normal double is 14 hours. They clock in at 915. and clock out at like 11pm - so you send them on break like at 130-215. then again at 700-745. works perfectly.
  6. BoObKiNoS replied to StXBomber's topic in Trip Reports
    Dude we work that like 2 or 3 times a week
  7. You have to go into the archives guys...its not on that individual page, but the site as a whole.
  8. You are quite possibly the dumbest person i've ever heard.
  9. Which is why i'm telling you you're wrong. Dude of course you havent seen the fog work - they turned it off for reasons that i will not mention. And the spear works. You're just blind.
  10. The trains are rotated...but i dont know about what you said CoasterRZ about working on one over the summer....they might but ive never heard that. But like last year we ran tains 1 and 2. Previous summer we ran trains 1 and 3.
  11. And once again i am here to tell you that you're wrong. The animation in all the tunnels works. It all did last year...and for whoever said they need to add a spear or axe that jumps out at you...well there is so i dont have any clue what you're talking about. And for the person that said that they need to maintain the extras to get more people to ride, explain why when it is already the most ridden ride in the park? It is. I have said it and defended it in numerous express posts. If you dont believe me then fine i dont care but Adventure Express has the most riders every year with the exception of racer, but thats two coasters and thats cheating so screw them. The fog is not broke for the intelligent person who said that it wasn't 'working', and that same person went on saying it probably won't ever be fixed. They intentially turned off the fog for reasons that have been mentioned countless times in previous "Let's bash Adventure Express becuase it's such a puny ride that riding it makes you feel like the sh*t aint workin" threads. Although they have turned it on for fearfest the past couple years, although i'm not sure if it was on last year...but it was for sure in 01 and 02. Huh, must be weird how the broken fog gets fixed every year for fearfest...especially considering that it "probably won't be fixed". The park keeps the darn ride maintained...my memory does not serve me correctly and i just called someone and they thought differently but im pretty sure the bell and flasing light outside tunnel 1 worked. Could be wrong. But even if i am thats just one friggin thing that isn't working...and i'm sure they'll get it working for this year if thats the case, so dont worry your concerns over that one item and the high level of concern will most likely be addressed as prompt as possible. So why start a whole thread over a flasing light and a bell dinging. I dont get it. OK to address yet even more of your misconstrued statements of incoherent rambling, i would like to take time to mention the improvements that one of you so gracefully decided was a good idea to battle the fact that "Adventure Express's interest has gone down". Yea. Let's start there actually. Adventure Express's Interest has gone down. hmm.. wow. I guess i'll just believe you, i mean you presented such a good arguement, and backed it up with all that compelling evidence, i mean sh*t, you could sway a whole jury with the case you presented. I cant believe i never thought of that. Ladies and gentlemen, we have our on Johnny Cockran on PKIU boards. Congrats buddy. LOOK, i'll believe you as soon as i see pie charts, and bar graphs and maybe a couple powerpoint presentations to back yo sh*t up, becuase the ride is only, hmm what was that...oh yea: THE MOST RIDDEN RIDE IN THE WHOLE FRIGGIN PARK. But back to the ideas you have to make this thing a 5-star world class resort. They were: "fog, dramatic lighting, sound effects, and more mannequins". First and foremost: the fog. I already addressed this so if you forgot already then your dumb and lets move on. Dramatic lighting. Excuse me, have you ridden the thing at night? It has the most dramatic lighting of any ride but TRTR. Seirously its like your on a blessid acip tripout with all them colors. Its freaking beatufil to be honest. Sound effects. ROFL. DUDE, the thing is the only coaster in the park besides fof with sound. Theres monkees, and birds and all kinds of noises. And its not even all the same....i mena lift one has its own sound track of stuff roaring and crap. I mean crap...you can hear that soundtrack clear at SOB at night once the patrons leave. Mannequins....yea...i dont even know what you're talking about. Do you want to advertise a super sleek looking line of Adventure Express clothing???? we could call it AE...oh wait thats American Eagle...what about AE:TFSWCR, for Adventure Express: The Five Star Worldclass Resort. No seorusly...are you talking like monkey and snake manequins?? becuase theres snakes all over the place...ive ridden that ride more than any ride in my life...and every time i see some new snake in a corner or something i never saw before...its impossible to even notice all the 'mannequins' when you ride....i dunno i guess im just not hip with style anymore to appreciate such a risky move into the fashion business. As my friend i consulted in putting together this mess of words put it, (we'll call him express god, becuase thats what he is - an expert in this field). "you should give them a good *****ing out for me. express is a great mine train coaster. it's not supposed to be big, but it's great at being what it is, and i will not have some fat ugly 40 year old virgins talking bad about her". So with that said...stfu everybody and leave my express alone.
  12. Son of Boob, NUGBOS, Boobzilla6610, PKl TRIPOD, sh*t the list goes on and on.
  13. Yea mine is somewhere on this site here.
  14. Not really? I think its darn funny
  15. Yea its a pretty funny story how it ended up grey.
  16. Nonono, i agree with that. I was saying he's wrong about why they painted it grey. My bad, my bad. But they did not paint it grey to match the other paramount parks, YOU trust me on that adderborty. And yes, God himself told me.
  17. I know enough to know that you're defintiley positively wrong. But im not going to elaborate for obvious reasons. Let's just say God told me.
  18. Aight. First. top gun has always been frickin enclosed. no harm though, its a common thought that it wasnt...why i dont know, but it is. Top Gun is by far not a dieing coaster. It is continualy one of the most ridden rides. The lower deck that is now not open was deisgned by the same person that designed the sets for top gun the movie. The whole idea was that you were inside the aircraft carrier...and when you walked up the stairs into the station you were on the flight deck...the backdrop at the time was different...and was a view of the flight deck in front of you...leading out into the ocean i do believe. The lower deck had a a display of missles that were launched...had a view from the inside of the air traffic control tower. It had a radar screen, that was supposed to be showing what the spinning radar (yes it spinned) was picking up that was in the que line right before you started going down stairs to under the station. It was raining outside....and the window in the traffic control tower had a picture behind it with a backdrop making it look like it really was a window to the flight deck, and it had real water dripping down it, with a windsheild wiper that would clear the rain every few seconds. There was a person staffed down there, who would check hieght. There is also just a lot of pipes going all over the place and big huge tanks that they connect too, trying to simulate the underneath of an aircraft carrier. There was also another display of the controls from the aircrat carrier...and had a designs on a table as to where the current jets were sitting on the deck. Needless to say it was cool. More trains for top gun that would be floorless would be extremley expensive, much more than 30,000 for PTC trains there genius boy BoddaH1994. Trust me more trains in general would cost more than that. And dammit leave my top gun alone...it aint going anywhere its not a dead ride. It is very loved by the guests and me.
  19. On SOB they wont sell the picture. On the TV they just put up a cheesy looking Kodak graphic.
  20. The place makes more money when theres no shows there.
  21. Adventure Express also says 1600 guests an hour, and thats nearly achievable...ive seen 1485 once.
  22. Talk about accountability - taking responsibilities for your actions. Its a sure fire way to get thru any interview. And when your done make sure you get placed in Rides on only the best, SOB/GUN. Well at least get into Action Zone.
  23. The best thing oscars serves is fruitopia from that fridge thing on the left.
