Re: LC12 - B&M 'Wing-Rider', Thorpe Park 2012

Does everyone remember being 100% convinced Thirteen was going to be called "Enchained" or whatever it was (I'd have to go back and look up the topic to find out)? That was all down to people reading too much into early promotional material and trying to "work out" what the name was.

In reality, they never give you any clues as to what it may be called. We have as much evidence for it to be called "War" as we do for it to be called "The fruit blending mystery coaster".

To be honest, I really don't think it's names going to be "WAR". Although, it's actually an ok name. That logo is alright too, whoever said that it must have took them ages to do is FAR wrong though. It wouldn't have actually taken that long...

Oh god, people looked into EVERY SINGLE LITTLE DETAIL on the original concept advert... I remember an entire trip of mocking this fact everytime I spotted something new all over the park...

Some enthusiast during construction said:
"OMG THERE'S A DOG, THEY MUST HAVE BEEN INSPIRED BY THIS OLD LONG STORY ABOUT SOME DAUGHTER GOING MISSING AND CHANGED IT TO TOWERS!"

Of course, that is a rather shortened version of the posts surrounding the mysterious dog shadow... Which in the end, never featured again once the newer posters came out...

Towers certainly had their troll face on good and proper for Thirteen didn't they?

Unfortunately I cannot go on the 1st now my friend has backed out again, but I am going tomorrow so will get a few piccys of what I can see., prob won't have time to post them till Friday though...

I don't think War will be the name but I have a hunch on Survivor, it is meant to be theme around a disaster, we will see...

48 pages are people saying "I can't believe it's already xx pages and there hasn't even been any footers yet" :p

For those needing a recap, because everything was so long ago and so many pages back, we are semi-regularly updating a construction page:

Don't make me get the padlock out today... We don't need a minute by minute countdown.
