their tweet is still there and just like you I'm sat here waiting. They said theyre showcasing it in the Box Office this morning so I think theyll wait until a good chunk of visitors have arrived before unveiling...hopefully they dont go back on it

No, the tweet's still there, and we have an hour and a half left of morning yet, so be patient!

EDIT: Beaten to it!!! Be patient though...

Ah ok I just got worried because the tweet didn't show up on Twitter on my iPhone.

We have our inverted drop!

[Phild94]

Buttons for inverted drops looks like we've got both of those then

[MikeJ]

And it confirms a corkscrew in to the brake run. That's at least 11 inversions now. Woop.

At about 20 seconds in could that be a Zero G Roll??

[lewis97]

• It confirms:
  • Indoor Heartline
  • Inverted Drop
  • Corkscrew near end
  • The Spider is called The Marmaliser
  • 'Camel Back to Inline twist' - so another inversion
  • What appears to be a zero G roll

I just watched the video on my mate's Personal Hotspot. It looks ace!

When it shows the upgrades, you can see in top right, 'top secret'

It also shows the pit is like it is now :\

The pit will be the least of our worries 10 inversions down the line XD

[Child 'O' Nemmy]

Around 00:25 mark, is that confirmation of a duelling element?

[goldengrahams]

so the 'spider' is the marmaliser . . .

Ok, so here's my analysis:
We have some pretty standard MOJ imagery at the start. Then, at about 00:08, we get a station shot. Looks quite clinical, yet still manages to incorporate The Smiler logo. Obviously, this is just a game, so things are pretty likely to change/differ. At 00:10, we get a loading screen (?) of sorts, that shows 8 steps. Step 1 (recruitment) is probably just 'recruiting advocates'. Step 2, data capture is also probably just a CCTV of sorts to fit in with the theme. Then, at step 3, we have initiation. Maybe some sort of pre-ride show? Step 4 is very interesting. 'Brain Wipe'. Looks like we will have some sort of brain washing section of the ride. The camera then zooms in on the station, and we see some form of mist curtain (00:14) and a bit of the indoor section. Step 6 is Marmalisation. This is followed by the words 'Prepare for Marmalisation' as we ascend the lift hill. This implies that the actual outdoor section of the ride is what marmalises you, and not a secret element such as the washing machine (if it is in fact part of the ride). Step 7 is smiling advocates, and step 8 is process complete. So, make of this what you will, but this gives us some ideas to the elements that Mr Wardley was talking about. I won't go into track layout too much, because it looks crazy as heck. We get some ride shots, coupled with Dr Kelman and Smiler images, then (at about 00:27), we see and upgrade screen. It shows us that we can obtain/upgrade the following:
-An Indoor heartline
-An Inverted drop
-A Double Batwing
-A Camelback into inline
There also appears to be a seperate section of upgrades for 'Top Secret (element?) and the Marmaliser (Spider), so it looks like it will have numerous features and effects. At 00:39, the train hits the break run, and we get the option to boost. Could this mean that we will have a launch? Anyway, that's what I saw, how about you guys?

EDIT: Some more things that I missed. In the station, there appears to be an elevator on the left, probably for disabled access. Enterprise looks pretty normal, so no MOJ makeover. The station looks slightly different to what I saw in the plans (not architecturally, but aesthetically. Oh, and did I mention that It looks amazing? :moj

[lewis97]

Seeing as the 'brain wipe' comes before 'marmalisation', which is the outdoor section of the ride, could that be referencing the SE/World First Feature??? There appears to be screens in the indoor section, which you can see as the train comes back into the station, before boosting, near the end of the video.

[N3m3s1s]

No mention of the lexicon (that thing that was on the original Smiler page). Maybe it's a later stage of marketing.
