OP also asked if you can put your name in and kinda hang around the resort. Does anyone know if this is true?
I'm thinking that we are going to be eating there just about everyday and we'd probably want to eat more toward the peak hours, any advice on that is appreciated.
Yes, you can just hang around while you wait. We walked over from Epcot, put our name in, and sat at a table just outside. There was a ceiling fan, and we were able to people-watch near the pool. We didn't walk around because it was so hot and we'd just come from the far side of Epcot and wanted to rest. They don't give you buzzers or anything (at least not then). They just walk out the door and call your name, so you probably don't want to stray too far.

...we arrived at 11:20 and were seated right away. By the time we left at 12:25 there was 1 party waiting. We have gotten there around noon before though and had to wait almost an hour. Again we either dine with 7 or 8 so that causes some difficulty of where to seat us. HTH
