May 18, 200422 yr Over the years there has been many discussions about which is better lights on or off in FOF. I think it would be cool if the lights flashed, Sorta like strob lights. What do you think. If you have any ideas share.
May 18, 200422 yr lol.. i'm sure everyone at first thinks this topic is about chick's flashing the camera's lol um..yea that would be awesome but hav elike lezer lights and move around and do special crap.. that would own!
May 18, 200422 yr I think it would be cool if the lights flashed, Sorta like strob lights. What do you think. If you have any ideas share. You can't have that....due to some people with epilepsy...that is one thing that triggers it. I believe it's illegal, or at least a suit has been filed and won on it. If you ever go into a haunted house, you should see the warning before you go into it....
May 18, 200422 yr well they can do it so long as they have a warning.. like TR:TR has some flashing crap i believe
May 18, 200422 yr Author My friend has epilepsy and Diana your right on. There would have to be signs all over the place.
May 18, 200422 yr Great title, I had a response all set. I think that lights off is the best. I've seen the drum with the lights on enough.
May 18, 200422 yr well they can do it so long as they have a warning.. like TR:TR has some flashing crap i believe The timing on the lights in TRTR are far below the threshold required to induce epileptic shock. Strobe lights are much much quicker.
May 18, 200422 yr Anyway, with the lights on, big hoot, you used to see the track, and the old Cobra cars down below, along with the like 4 inch thick layer of dust. It's not a pretty sight. I prefer the lights off.
May 18, 200422 yr As intrigued as I was Saturday with the lights on, I prefer the usual dark, with a few colored lights here and there.
May 18, 200422 yr When I rode Flight of Fear on Sunday, it was extremly dark. There were only a couple of the colored lights on, and most of the time, the ride was in complete darkness. For most of the ride, I couldn`t see my hand in front of my face. Despite having riden Flight of Fear numerous times in the past years and this season, it disoriented me. Part of this could have been because the trim break was actually on, not as hard as it used to be, but you definantly notice that it is on.
May 18, 200422 yr Hmmm, I thought this was about real flashing. Go fig. Anyway, I could see the problem in having the lights flash with the epilepsy problem. They would have to put the same warnings as they do with video games. Personally, I think it should remain as dark as possible. It is disorienting with lights out.
May 18, 200422 yr well i dont care what the lights are like but hell if a chick is gona flash the camera turn the lights on... if anyone remembers dan carnahan from last year... ya there is a great story about him getting flashed by a 50+ old drunk lady... unfortunately for him the lights were... well... it was around 2 pm on The Beast... nice and bright...

Dan works elsewhere now...I see him occasionally at class and stop to say hi
May 18, 200422 yr I would like to get at least one ride with the lights on, but I've never been able too. I just want to see the track and supports and Cobra's trains.
May 18, 200422 yr Actually there is no track in there, just trains. hes not talking about cobra's track. i rode fof on saturday with the lights on and i personally liked it better that way. it was my first time with the lights on. but i really liked it because you could see the cobra trains and the track. it looks like a tangled mess and is sweet.
May 19, 200422 yr well atleast i'll be able to see my old friend for a whiel.. trains from FoF and track from tower..yay!
May 19, 200422 yr This ride is very similar to FoF, without the building....for those who want to see the layout. If the link doesn't work, here is the address: http://rcdb.com/installationgallery528.htm?Picture=1 rcdb.com
May 19, 200422 yr I've ridden it with the lights on myself and found it to be an interesting experience. I rode it once when all of the lights were off and that was really cool. I wish they would just do that instead.
May 19, 200422 yr Author good pics. I have a new idea. FOF lights will turn on and off through the entire ride. Not like strob lights. It would be computerized so you never get the same ride twice.
May 20, 200422 yr false advertising on the post here dude.' Any photo booth workers here ever seen a "camera flash"?
