Am I reading the Disney page about the party correctly, later they'll tell us how to buy tickets? It sounds like in the past people have called but maybe this year we buy them online?

The way I remember it, the online purchase option has been in effect for at least several years (my 2008 party tickets were purchased online, in the e-ticket print-out version, as were my tickets for last year's party too), but there was also an option to purchase over the phone, at the same ticket number that used to be available for people to buy one-day/one-park tickets in advance. In the past you could not buy the one-day/one-park tickets online and had to call.
I know the AP people could buy MHP tickets online last year and get their discount, but the Disney Visa and DVC people may have had to use the phone number to get the discount. I'm not 100% sure if the DVC and Visa folks could get the discount online at all.
Now, because the one-day/one-park tickets can be purchased online (finally), I'm not sure if that old ticket phone number will still be available or necessary for some Halloween Party ticket purchases too. That's what I am waiting to find out on July 9th - if Disney tells us that phone purchases can be made as well, or as an alternative to online. Personally, I think that DLR will always encourage online sales and downplay the phone option, but they will probably always offer the phone option for people to use as a back-up (computers do crash, after all, and sometimes a phone may be necessary!).
