So just to be sure I understand the ticket rules properly for my situation. I am going for 12 nights/13 days. Day 1 we are just going to Downtown Disney so no need for park tickets. On the day we are going to the Christmas Party we aren't going to the parks until the Event ticket can get us into MK. The last day we fly out fairly early so no ticket. A 10 day ticket should get me a day in the park for everyday since no park first or last day and no park day of the Christmas Party, correct? But as far as the thread I'm writing this off of, and maybe I missed something, if you buy a 6 day pass with park hopper and waterparks, as long as on the days you are going to the waterparks, you aren't also going to a regular park and assuming you go to the waterparks in the middle and not on the last day you should be ok, right? example, you buy a 6 day pass with waterparks and day 1 - 4 you go to regular parks, day 5 you go to a waterpark at this point you only used 4 days of tickets and still have 2 to use within 14 days of day 1, so day 6 you go to a regular park, leaving 1 day of tickets, day 7 a waterpark and then day 8 you use your last day. Is that not right??? Does a waterpark actually take away from a park ticket?
