Oi oi fellow thrillseekers :-D Thought I'd come hobnob with this crew of likeminded folk :-8
Recently visited Alton Towers for my birthday, annoyingly only managed 4 rides due to insane queue times! Seems to be the average from my last few visits too. Have just booked Scarefest 2day pass, fast track and staying overnight in a Stargazing pod as goddamit this time i'm going to do it all :evil: Would love to get abroad and ride some of their awesome coasters, any recommendations? Been glued to Extreme Coaster FPPOV footage for hours, Odyssey looks like the dogs doughnuts <3

Welcome to the forum. Only 4 rides, that's terrible. Odyssey (Skegness?) is OK, Nemesis is far better

Hello my friends,
My name is Neil, I am also know as Nox, 45 and been a Theme Park lover for most of those years.

I am another one of those theme park vloggers on YouTube, but my content also includes a variety of things including, many attractions and events along side gaming.

My Favourite ride is Wicker Man ever since I rode a night ride before the virus I loved this ride with its theming, the queue being immersed in the coaster, the preshow, big bob, the wood and fire mix, the smell pods, the speed and airtime. But when I rode this beauty in the dark with red lights giving the effect of the whole ride on fire, I knew this was a complete coaster experience that would be hard to be topped. It knocked Swarm off my top spot.

Now I have been to most UK parks, next on the bucket list is to travel more. I am planning trips for Holland, Germany and Sweden/Denmark. And mostly excited for my megatrip to Japan when this horrible virus will allow it.

Hi! My name's Mav, and I'm 18 (so I'm probably one of the youngest people here). Theme parks are something I'm really passionate about and it's kind of my dream to work at one in the future. My favourite theme park is definitely Alton Towers, the theming of every ride is really impressive to me. As for my other hobbies I love to draw and play video games! I'm really excited to meet people like me who love theme parks as much as I do :D

Hi everyone, it's lovely to say hi!

I have ASD and my main special interest is theme parks and rollercoasters, especially the theming/stories/lore and how they work!

Outside of that I like to play games, write, design characters, and draw.

I'm yet to visit parks outside of the UK but so far my favourite is Alton Towers followed by Thorpe Park.

Hi guys!

My name is Tom and despite the branding I am also a theme park enthusiast! I joined this forum to follow discussions on planning applications and follow the new and upcoming!

My home park is Alton Towers and favourite ride there is smiler due to its amazing theming. My favourite coaster outside the UK is Sheikra!

I work within the architectural industry and hope to branch into theme park design eventually, having written my dissertation about it! Hope to have discussions with some of you in the future. Cheers!
