I am going to assume that this idea sprung out of the idea of the FastPass in the parks. While it's a great idea theoretically and for things like room previews, this is quickly proving to not be a good idea, IMO. The problem of course, is that with FastPass Disney gets to spread the FP guests out over an entire day, once past the first hour or so that the park is open. Say MK opens at 9am and closes at 12am. Same amount of time VMK is open. Passes start going out around 9, with the first return times slated for around 10am. The passes are in increasing intervals of 5 minutes, and once a set amount of people get FPs, it bumps to the next return window. Eventually, the passes run out.
The problem with VMK Pass is: 1. there is no limit to the number of people who can get passes and 2. Host events do not last all the live long day. While it is a good idea theoretically, the way they're using it now is counterintuitive, if you ask me. They might as well change the event times from say 5:30pm-8:30pm to 5:30pm-5:30:30pm. For new rooms, lands, and preview rooms, it's great. But as I said with the teleporter game last night, what was the point?It took me over 2 hours to get in the room to try once (I won, thankfully). Whereas before those types of games took a few minutes usually to get into queue and a mere 4 or so minutes to move through the queue.
While I love the concept, it just seems like a disaster to me so far, as far as events go.
Ye it did the teleporter games are not worth it anymore
