@Lauraarh I left at 3. It was one of their worst showings in years that’s for sure. I know the start of the season is always testy for parks and reliability isn’t at its best but today was past the normal levels that’s for sure.
Merlin Entertainments: Record losses the last 2 financial years.
Internet idiots: “I don’t understand why budget cuts, infrastructure changes and attractions are closing. It’s unacceptable”
If you think running a business at well over 100mil loses is clever your all idiots.
@SchwurDesAmy People claim they want honesty but the second you give it to them they just shit all over you and tell you that you’re wrong. They get more defensive when you expand and explain how you come to said opinion.
People just don’t ask me anymore these days because “I’m too honest”
Enthusiasts thinking they have any influence over park management, business direction, creative decisions and anything at all to do with how the business is run. That will never stop being hilarious to me.
@markloftCD Let’s not forget they made a massive financial loss as a company last year and as a betting man I’d say the projections are not looking good for this year. If anything I’m personally surprised it’s taken this long for them to make significant cuts across multiple attractions.
@CoasterJoey The financial forecast for this year must be looking worse than they expected! After last years HUGE losses they will need to stem the bleed on this years losses as soon as they can.
@AnythingOnRails@flamingolanduk I was on park today and Kumali does not sound healthy! That lift is REALLY struggling. No sign of train 2. I can only imagine a new lift motor or gear box is in the rides future.
@Lauraarh Personally Hyperia ranked a bit high there for my preference but I’m so happy to see someone not buying the Hype for the ride and agreeing with me it really is average at best! I approve this list 😂
@ThorpeGuide The park will have nothing to do with this at all. The telecommunications company pay the land owners a fee to be able to put their mast there. Same thing at towers with the stuff on the towers. It’s a minuscule income stream for the park they have zero responsibility for.
“HyPeRiA wouldn’t haven’t have valleyed if they did this” -
Says every “enthusiast” on the internet with no experience or knowledge about the ride/ situation regarding any issues with the ride! These same people who think Nemesis Reborn is immersive.
No wonder I get migraines
@PrincessAirtime Oh you could have a dark ride as well that shows the journey of a sausage roll from factory to your stomach and at the end you get a free sausage roll! I’m so sold on this idea!
The most interesting thing about Hyperia being down was people praising Thorpe/ Mack for very simple ride mechanically going down, yet absolutely attack Zamperla for having issues with a prototype on a scale they have never done before! Double standard reign supreme I guess.
