I'm leaning more towards Fig's idea too if I'm honest. Could we have dark figment pop up in each scene and cause things to go a little wrong, almost have him as more mischevious rather than outright evil?

Dark Figment was never meant to be "evil." I was going for a more mischevious stance.

Now that I can really get behind, sort of popping up in each scene and causing havoc, poking his toungue out and causing things to go a little heywire, for example i previously mentioned guests having their faces projected onto "fantasy scenarios such as princess, pirate, superhero etc, well mabie dark stitch could mess that about a little bit, so a grown man may be palces onto a fairy, or a little girl as a superhero etc.

Haha, that's a great idea.

Every ride definitely calls for some backstory. The more complex the ride, the more complex the story. This is the case with our new ride.

Sounds good. If everyone wants to come to a consensus on backstory, I'll put it together.

well i'm just saying we're relying too much on the old story that it wouldn't be welcoming to any new riders and i disagree about the more complex ride, more complex story angle. I think that's a great way to alienate any potential new fans for the attraction. Expedition Everest or Toy Story Mania don't exactly have complex storylines.

Anyway, it seems I'm in the minority again on this so i guess y'all should just ignore me.

I feel the same way as you stitch, too much story isn't a good thing, but arguig gets us nowhere mate. Let's all just pitch in and get a great idea down, it's a democracy and if we're in the minority then we should still pitch in for the good of the team. You're one of the most creative guys in this game, we can't loose you!

Tonight's going to be my best chance to get some decent work on this in, until Saturday. Fig, if there's anything I can help work on just let me know. It looks like we're still in the planning stages, but thought I'd ask.

I can help circ with layout and design once we have a storyline.

The thing with those two are that they have elements that keep people coming back. Toy Story Mania has the interactive games, and Everest is just a straight up coaster (which never has a detailed story, but the thrills keep people coming back.) A dark ride (like the one we're making) would fall flat on it's face with no story.

We're not gonna ignore you, we'd love to hear your input.

I got the story and queue descriptions, so we now need:

-Track Layout (Drawing of ride with each scene labeled)
-Ride Vehicle Design (look at Spiderman Car)
-Scene Layout (What happens in each scene)
-List of Interactive Features
-Character/costume design

Does that give everyone a specific job?

Yep, that should give us each a specific task.

I PMed circ, if she wants to do the layout, its hers, otherwise I'll take it. If she does want layout, I'll design the vehicle. Besides a drawing, do you want me to get into specifics of its capabilities?

Having a story is fine, and we do need one, but I think stitchcastle's point is we don't want things too complex.

Toy Story has the interactive games, and we're going for a completly interactive personalised attraction here. I think less is more in this instance, but we've reached a consensus and that's a good thing.

BTW here's an example of the sort of data we'd collect from guests, dotted lines indicate blank spaces for open input, while others will be multiple choice. This is so certain show elements can be created, where as the blank spaces indicate elements that are easily replicated such as colour)

Favourite Colour:.................

Who is your favourite Disney Character:................

Favourite Smell:......................

From the Following, what would be your dream:
To be a pirate
To be a princess
To be a rock star
To be a pop star
To be a superhero
To be asports star (multiple options may be avalable here)
To be a doctor
etc

If that's ok, then I'll come up with a whole host more, if you want it rethinking then go ahead, From the data I'll then come up with how it can be incororated into the attraction and what tech we'd use to do this

You forgot to ask if they were boy or a girl. :lol:

We can also maybe have a question after each choice:

Pirate: Good Pirate or Bad Pirate
Princess: Regular or Fairy
Rock Star: Classic or Modern
Pop Star: Classic or Modern
Superhero: Hero or Villain
Sports: Choose favorite sport
Doctor: Choose kind of doctor

Otherwise I like what's going on here, and the completed story should be up tonight or tomorrow.

OK, you can do the vehicle. I posted the vehicle is like Spidey.

As for specifics, that'd be great.
