Agree with all of this! I STILL think the restrictions made things too limited which shot them in the foot but of course I understand why they did it. But as pinkbudgie said, I dont get the need registering 3 days before your date? I mean if there is still room the next day, then I dont get the issue doing it then? So I think being extra cautious and being so limited is a big part of the problem.
And I said this from the beginning they probably only needed to do it the first month anyway while people were super excited to to do it. I imagine most Apers who are local who REALLY wanted to see CL has A. Either seen it already or B. Will just wait until later regardless because the crowds scared them. So there was no need to do it past the first few weeks of opening although I understand why they would offer it all summer obviously. And like you said a lot of Apers are blocked out now, the majority of them actually so come August and September it probably will pick up a bit. I still dont get why they just dont give the lower Apers the option to buy a black out ticket and go? I mean if you have a limited number, you have a limited number. So give them the oppurtunity to go even if they buy a black out ticket for it, especially if its not reaching its limit.
And if you are a Deluxe or Premium holder, which are the only two that can even go now, you have SO MUCH time to go! I had a friend who has a Deluxe pass who showed up at the resort around 10:30 on a Wednesday night just so he could ride RSR before the park closed. Thats the kind of advantages local Apers can do on their own already, especially the hardcore ones.
