Disney Magic March 10, 2016 - 3 night

[KristiAnne]

Looking forward to meeting some new friends before our sailing.

 

[grage]

any group started for FE on this cruise?

 

[KristiAnne]

Not that we can find. We would love to be in one. It's our first Disney cruise as a family.

Is anyone looking to meet others that will be on the March 10th Magic Cruise? {content removed by a moderator}

Thanks!

As PrincessSchmoo said, please try to follow the board rules. I had to remove a number of posts that were just redirects off of the boards.

If anyone wanted to setup an FE group here, your group can decide on what information is necessary. A basic list may only have DISname/room number/number of people in the room. A more involved list could be first & last names/ages/room number/favorite character/favorite color/allergies/whatever is deemed necessary to know. Also a decision can be made as to size of FE. Some groups break out the list(s) at 10-15 rooms max, so that there are multiple lists (and some people will participate in more than one list). Other groups just make one big list (upwards of 20-30 rooms).

At some point the list will "close". Typically this happens 30-45 days out from the cruise, so that everyone participating has time to organize/prepare their gifts. Shortly before this time (about 2-3 weeks prior) the organizer will either post the list (usually via a conversation is best, as that's more private) to confirm everyone on it is still participating. And making a statement about "anyone not confirming by XX date will be dropped".

Once the list closes, the organizer will post the final list. Also, a decision must be made as to whether to allow late additions. Sometimes there is a "pixie dust" list. That is, basically, a latecomers list that gets posted about a week out from the cruise that others may or may not add to their "final" list. Be sure the "pixie dust" list participants realize they may or may not get gifts from others.
let me know if there is anything else I can help with!

It appears that no one has stepped up to maintain the Fish Extender list for your cruise.

[lovedisney123]

Hello everyone! We are cruising with you. We won't be joining in with the FE, but I did want to say Hi. I am very excited to be back on the Magic again. I haven't seen it since it has changed.

As I said in post #8 - it appears that no one has stepped up to organize the Fish Extender list. Hopefully all of you who've posted info to join are keeping your own personal lists. And that no one will be missed doing it this way.

I don't mind compiling list of participants with rooms and names; just not sure how to distribute to each separate from this posting. I'll research.

There is the private conversation feature, but anyone wishing to use it must have at least 10 posts. You can converse with up to 20 people at a time.

Thank you PrincessShmoo! I just read it. That is easy to comply with and I REALLY appreciate the information and protection.

Btw, I found FE list makers/formats that will be helpful in making the list of participants so I'm happy to do that for this group. So far it looks like 5 members/families. I'm not sure if I could do 20-30 member families myself but certainly folks can choose the number of families to give to so let's see how many respond to this group before we decide to "close" or not. So far with 5 families totally doable!! Will be sooo fun!!

Some FE groups close the list at XX date (generally about 30-45 days out from a cruise) or when XX number of rooms have joined. Each group/organizer can make that call.

Typically, everyone on any specific FE list is supposed to give a gift to all participating rooms on their list. It's not fair to pick an choose who to give to.
