Am i the only one thinking not to put the smiley face logo inside a closet next to the BED.

Your just relaxing there trying to get to sleep when suddenly the closet suddenly comes loose and creaks open.

So with the ride delayed until May, gutted, do you think there is more chance of a MAP preview event?

March 16th would have been a no no as the park would have been closed on the days, weeks before the ride was due to open.

But now they have a great opportunity to reward us MAP holder with a preview. They could sell a whole bunch of MAPs on the back of announcing such an event, they could really go to town with a Sanctuary tie in too.

wasn't sure where to post so please move if wrong.

You know what that's not a bad bit of thinking at all... The only fallback would be the normal customers that day may get annoyed that they are not being allowed to ride it. They wold need a check point at the to of Xsector to enable only pass holder to gain entry.

Very good idea though, I'd like that a lot as I'm not planning on visiting on opening day due to the massive volume this is going to attract.

I think that the "special" mug will be the logo with the eyes on the actuall mug but the smily bit is the handle then on the blank BLACK side could be written THE SMILER and like the TH13TEEN mugs in side on the base could be the themed AT logo

What do you think?

I think we're getting the First ever coaster in the world according to the text in the circle.
I know it also means a Coaster with a World First.
It's just the lack of punctuation makes it not clear.

Who thinks The Smiler themed rooms will be open from March 16th or do you think they'll open in May along with The Smiler itself.

this is what i hope for from a Smiler room..

White a clinical, over sized Double hospital bed, MOJ posters on the wall,old tv set which occasionally shows "MOJ Adverts" Smiler on the ceiling, subliminal style sounds played or occasional..wait for it.."Sanctuary style Marmalisation"

so your sat the room the tv displays MARMALISATION IN 3,2,1-Smiler flickers on,light go off and replaced with strobing multicolored lights,the tv displays the imagery,heavy bass buzzing noises maybe a little water vapor mist then blackness and lights come back on and room is normal again.

Hoping for alot but i think that would be awesome

True, I forgot about the normal ones. Wait so how many rooms in total are there in the Alton Towers hotel and how many rooms are there in total in the Splash Landings hotel...?

Does anybody think that scare rooms next year may have a Smiler twist? That would be cool...

Oh right, thanks Kenzie.

Yeah, maybe for the Splash Landings hotel they could have a sort of one off room where a experiment has gone wrong obviously at the same time the Alton Towers hotel scare rooms are going on. It could be based around The Sanctuary rather than The Smiler as The Smiler is 'owned' by The Sanctuary.

Anyway back to The Smiler themed rooms, I don't think they should paint the walls entirely black, possibly a black and white colour (but mostly white) and have the smiling logo randomly dotted around the room.

Just wondering, where did the word marmalisation arise from? Keep hearing it and I presume it's from the sanctuary but just wanted to clarify :D thanks

Yeah it is from the sanctuary. It was the mind altering section in the middle of the maze.
