Out of curiosity, which MK attractions pop to the top when refresh works? Do any? I find refreshing for tiered attractions fairly straight forward in the other parks, but in MK I played around with refreshing just to see what would come up and my question stems from that. So, say I want Peter Pan and I'm refreshing for that; do I have to scroll down to see if PP becomes available since they don't tier in MK? Are there certain rides that appear at the top of the list if FP's get freed up in the MK? If so, which ones?
 
I was there over Thanksgiving week and pickings were slim! Refresh at MK only gave options like Ariel, Mad Hatter, etc because no one was letting go of anything good. However, when I did refresh, the available attractions appeared first (at the top of the screen) in alphabetical order. Then below was all the attractions that were out of FP.
 
If you are trying to modify an existing PP it will appear at the top, if to are refreshing another FP trying to find a PP you will have to scroll down each time.

That's what I was thinking, thanks for the answer! It does tend to make refresh hunting a much longer process.
 
it's alphabetical.
However once the ride you want pops up (at any time), grab it and then refresh to modify the time.
In this case, the picked attraction to modify would appear at the top.
 
Its in ABC order.
So for PP you'll have to do some scrolling.
At the tier parks is ABC order as well but ABC order for tier 1 and then ABC order for tier 2.
 
Since they are alphabetical, I have to kinda get into "The Zone" when hunting. Refresh, scroll, new time, scroll, new time, scroll. Once you do it a few times, and you get into autopilot mode, it's a small "rush" of sorts. You gotta know what you want, and be ready to pounce. We had fun just bouncing from Splash to BTMR for about 90 minutes straight, just one after the other, sometimes the same one twice in a row. Corny admission: I don't think I will ever get sick of Splash.
 
Yep, alpha order. Lots of scrolling. Grab anytime you see, then modify & refresh constantly to be shown that ride at the top without scrolling (will be much faster at this point). I did find it slightly easier to quickly scroll to the bottom to see if my ride was on the unavailable list at the very bottom, when I didn't see it there it meant there was a FP & I would more carefully scroll back up to grab it.
 
When we were there in October, the refresh save a lot of time and we were able to get many FPs.
As said above, if you are modifying a FP, it pops up at the top of the list. If you are trying to add a new one, they are alphabetical.
When looking for new ones, don't forget to try different times. I found many different rides were available at 2:30 that didn't show up when I was looking at 2, et.
