was at dreamworld today and the que lines for most of the rides were preety good except the tot which was 30mins at least
m.d.m.c was running 2 trains and the line was moving reasonably fast
the wipeout was running fast as usual and the claw was the samw also the G.D. was also running wuite fast and considering it was qld scholl holidays there today i thought it wouldave been alot worse

Dreamworld has really started to pick up its game latley. I was there on Friday with a few mates from work and Thunder River Rapid's queue line was FILLED and we only waited 25 minutes. They had 4 staff on hand and every other ride was staffed to the brim. I was really quite impressed and despite queue lines being filled the longest we waited for a ride was 30 minutes.

Maybe this is the start of something new for Dreamworld?

Belive me... by Dreamworld's standards... 25 minute waits for rides is NOT a long wait... considering the day I went they had 10,500 people in the park.

hey guys

went to dreamworld with a few mates on tuesday last week and i must say that i was most uninpressed by the way they handeled the assault or should i say the strangaling of a mate by an asain the supervisor was called and then security all because some1 was throwing stuff around and the sain guy thought it was my mate.(it wasnt) but yea the asiain guy snapped and just came up to us and started to strangle my mate lifted him right outta his chair on the train and all security said was they be watching us. they didnt care that my mate was hurt and could barely move his neck and then started to feel sick and dizzy.i just call this just plain stupidity.

Makes me think twice about dreamworld being my favourite park with everything that's been going on recently.

Yeah... I was NOT happy with how that situation was dealt with. Kate may not have wanted to say who the person was that got choked, but it was actually me. Not to mention the death stares I get in that place now... sends a shiver down my spine.

Obviously they do not like the way you look, sounds like they are judging you, on looks, 8).

Yeah, I'm fine after the incident but for around 2 hours after it happened I was feeling like utter crap. I rode The Claw around 30 minutes later as it's the most gentle of the 5 thrill rides (not counting the MotoCrapper here) And once it got to around 70 Degree's I just went white as a ghost and my neck just started to cramp up and I was nearly in tears.

Needless to say I basically kept my feet on the ground until the end of the day...

And Princess, what exactly are you implying about my looks?! :lol:

LOL, You look mmmmmmmmmmm, you know what I mean, they may have thought you were a very very naughty boy. This is clearly where you need an AAF t-shirt, so they would know where you are from and who you are......

hey princess.

i think it would be cool do have A A F t shirts that way if we do end up taking photos of rides then people wont scream at us.

at least people will now who we are and y we are addicted to rides or shows etc.

they dont have to be flashy but still if we stick a logo or some thing on them it would be cool maybe bring some money in and we could use it to do something for the web site or something

I've never had workers ask me why I'm taking photos. They don't care. I dodn't think I'd wear them. Sorry to say...

I wonder if we would get really long good ride cycles if we wore AAF T Shirts on the rides....I think this could be worth doing!
