Tuesday July 5th, 2005

Let us know how your day at the park was.
Postby Raging_Bull on July 6th, 2005, 12:21 am
The day started out great, three Vu rides before 10:20 (no one went to it for some reason). Good weather, HH seemed to be packed. Crowds were moderate during the day, but lightened up in the evening. The Bull crew did not seem very efficient today, stacking on pretty much every dispatch (we saw a 3-train stack once). There were a lot of Sfgam members at the park today, I believe there were at least 10 of us on the last Vu dispatch of the night :lol:. And Zach got his 100th Viper ride today, congrats on that.

couple other notes...

-B:TR crew was doing a great job today.
-Bull's MCBR trims were on very hard :?
-They need to re-train some groupers...some don't really seem to understand what they are supposed to do.
-someone threw up on Eagle Red today LOL

Ride totals....

Deja Vu: 5
Bull: 7
AE: 14
Viper: 5
Demon: 1
B:TR: 5
V2: 1
Giant Drop: 1
Triple Play: 1

Total rides...40 (38 coasters).

Grouper note: About half the groupers are ride ops and about half the groupers are 'park ops' people. It's really only when a ride op does it. (Especiallly on viper) that it doesn't work. Whenever you get a ride op grouper they either let too many people into the station too frequently, or not enough people into the station not enough...

Bull never needs a grouper, nor did it need one yesterday.

However, Suf could of used one. Half of my 45 minute wait was in the station.

Part of the problem with Viper is that the grouper is positioned outside of the station, where it's almost impossible to see how full it is.
