It's amazing at some of the basic things BGW and many other companies just suck at these days.

One thing that bothers my wife more than me, though I think it's pretty bad also is the odor of paint/stain that exists at Turkish Delight and I think The flying machine/Battering ram. I remember Turkish Delight having a strong odor last year and just wrote it off as they must have just painted. Anyone notice this?
Yes I have noticed this as well. I think that Elephant Run and Flying Machine were the most recent repaints/refurbishments, which makes sense that paint would have been done.
Better off than today/tonight (May 15th) when half the park was broken and they couldn't be bothered to list more than Mach Tower and Verbolten on the board of closed rides.
That’s likely a miscommunication. I’ve asked, and a good chunk of the time the rides department fails to inform the arrivals area of the closed attractions (as arrivals is in charge putting those signs up).
That may be but it's something they really need to resolve. They would have saved me an extremely miserable day.
So i’m not really sure where to put this, but the music in the queues for various rides has been really bothering me. (ex. Griffon, AC, InvadR, Alpengiest,etc) They have been playing generic promotional music on a loop on all of theses rides. My question is what happened to The s oundtracks some of these rides used to have.Not having them really takes away from the experience.

InvadR still had their theme music playing as of last Thursday.
I haven't heard AC's theme music in the queue in a long time. Sometimes they'll turn the lift music on.
The other coasters don't have specific theme music. Usually the music coming out of those speakers either comes from the TVs or the generic area music.

Last friday InvadrR and Pantheon weren’t playing their soundtracks. And there was not lift music on AC. And all other rides were playing that stupid promotional video. Surprisingly the sound effects were working in verboltens queue house.
We rode Invadr at 8:50 on Friday and the music was playing, I didn’t notice it when going into the ride and queue but when we were walking out down the ramp a song started and was loud because the park was so empty and quiet. It was the same music from opening.
Last time I was in line for tempesto, they had bagpipe music playing painfully loud. Like so loud I couldn’t hear the rest of my group standing next to me. Seems like it would be such an easy thing to play the right music in each themed country.
Witnessed a kid just yeet the turtle statue into the fountain, then tell the adult he was with that he "pet it and it fell on its own." Should be relatively easy to put back assuming it isn't damaged, tho I'm a bit surprised it seemingly wasn't mounted to the wall in any meaningful way.

Saw that it was missing this morning, and was wondering where it ended up. Obviously I didn’t look close enough!
Kid shoulda been yeeted headfirst into the pool. Would have learned real quick about breaking other peoples shit.
The turtle is just trying to hide from the godawful yellow paint job on the Wilkommenhaus.
Were you there in March? IIRC, they were playing Irish music all over the park for the event.
