    Rita - New theming

    ^ http://forum.towerstimes.co.uk/viewtopic.php?f=68&t=26282&start=75 Right at the top. Look pretty cool in my opinion, though I wish there was a bit more theming on the actual station platform.

    Thirteen, Intamin ''psychoaster'' - Alton Towers 2010

    This very much could be real as it looks very professional, so if you want the inside crypt part to be a surprise don't watch this video... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tl78en-poAw For some reason the video isn't playing for many people, but as Ollie suggested switch it from 360p to 480p...

    Thirteen will have a 1.2m height restriction. http://www.altontowers.com/theme-park/thrill-rides/thirteen/ I suppose we guessed that before but this just confirms it.

    Thirteen, Intamin ''psychoaster'' - Alton Towers 2010

    The Thirteen site has been updated slightly: http://www.altontowers.com/thirteen/ Also, much bigger news for some people probably, the Thirteen Weekend small print now states "Please note - This package does not include a ride on Thirteen". Before it said something along the lines of "We...

    ^ I think it was the Ug Land name trademark that ran out this year, that must have been what he meant.

    Spinball Whizzer to Sonic Spinball?

    Ahhh Sonic <3. That Marble Zone music brought back so many memories. Why did I ever get rid of my megadrive? The ride... well, it'll still be Spinball. Just ever so slightly Sonic-like. The re-theme definately makes sense though, but it won't make me want to ride it more. But that's only me.

    Music Recommendations

    A little while ago the drummer in my band introduced me to Porcupine Tree. I got their album The Incident after, and if anyone likes prog rock or something a little different I would highly recommend it. Stand out tracks are The Blind House, Drawing the Line and Time Flies. The best thing is to...

    ^ Yeah, sorry, I wasn't really on the ball when I wrote that, I did mean the walkway. I guess they could use opening a small area of that up to their advantage, it would give people a view of what was going on, but without giving too much away, maybe having wraiths guarding it. A bit like when...

    I was wondering that the other day, but if it is it seems strange that Hex is open for the Half Term week, as surely they'd be retheming it? I sure hope they do anyways.

    We wouldn't want anything drooping and looking flacid! :--D It's good we get another subtle hint that, hopefully, Ugland is getting the retheme that it really needs!

    When do you put it in your mouth?

    Twice a day, everyday. It doesn't feel right if I don't. 5 minutes isn't much if it means you have better teeth and no bad breath :)

    Do they need to take the Cloud Cuckoo sign down in order to change the Ug Land one? I assume it's just that, but I don't remember seeing that sign last time I went so I wouldn't know fo sho. It just looks like the Mutiny Bay and gardens signs are close together and look the same as what the...

    What do you do to get away?

    I just shut myself in my room and play guitar. It doesn't matter what I play, I just do it. Sometimes I don't have a clue what I'm playing, and it probably sounds awful. It's quite good for writing music too, you can be in full creative flow and come up with loads. It takes my mind of stuff if I...

    First coaster ever

    I know it was definately at PBB, but I'm not entirely sure what it was, either the Clown Coaster or Zipper Dipper. Probably Clown Coaster. My first inversion though was Rock 'n' Roller Coaster at WDW. No idea why it was that, I don't think I realised it had any at the time, it was a while...

    Plans for 2010?

    Well, I plan to finally get to Thorpe Park. Yes, there is a UK member who's never been to Thorpe!!! Apart from that, to get to as many new places as I can, and to get back to Alton to ride Thirteen if I can. Mingoland a few times too, it's only down the road!

    Well.... It looks.... Big :--D . I didn't realise the station was actually the size it looks. And if it looks big in the picture, it must look even bigger in real life. But please Alton, theme it bloody good!
