Rise of the Resistance BOARDING GROUPS Superthread Part 1 *No Ride Spoilers Please* *PLEASE READ POSTS 1-4*

Has anybody noticed what happens if someone tries to enter before their BG is called? Is it like FP where a blue light scans of how do they verify you are at the right time?

I hope you're right but it seems to have slowed to a crawl after the initial flurry unfortunately.

Don’t worry, she’ll hold together!

Thanks everyone, I did realize that most were in DL today and posting about current conditions, but wanted to preclude the occasional what's happening in DHS posts..sorry for the confusion.

 

[WonkaKid]

Thanks! I was just coming on here to ask what people knew about parking opening times this weekend.

The info about came from a CM at the AP help line. However, a friend is there now and he said he’d also ask people there. I’ll post more info if any comes.

Is the DL version available during the AH events or is it just like HS and not open during MH?

They’re checking people’s screens when they walk up.

Arrested, put in the cell next to the guy who beat the girl up in Toon Town.

Thanks to everyone that's posted their experience thus far and best of luck; I hope all of you get to ride today!

For the record, there are plenty of people in SW:GE talking to CMs who either didn’t get a BG this morning, or who seem to be just now finding out about the BG process and that there are no more available today. Basically, if there’s a CM around GE, then that’s the discussion that’s happening. So consider yourself at an advantage just for being on this board!

How do the crowds feel for anyone in the park today? I feel like some of the people following this on Instagram are being a tad ridiculous on what’s actually going on lol. Someone mentioned the park getting to capacity today but it doesn’t even look near that with the current wait times on anything.

Looks a lot busier than it had been during the week.

Shhhh don't tell anyone I feel I have better info here then anywhere else.

The wait time for Peter Pan is 30 minutes.

Im not there, I have no information, but on that piece of data alone I can guarantee it’s tens of thousands of people away from capacity.

Yes for sure, the last two days were insanely low!! But honestly tons of fastpasses with fairly early times still and not terrible lines. That’s why I’m curious how it actually feels! We go Monday and I’m nervous about crowds Monday.

Those poor CMs. Someone needs to give them a basket of fine chocolate and bubble bath for after their shift.

Busier than ave weekday - looks like ave Jan weekend times. 30-40min for most rides despite RS down much of the morning.

Kiddie rides look barren as it should be for schoolday

My Disney-Prep to-do list between now and our visit in August:

— Watch this thread and Dina4444’s chart like a hawk.

— Keep practicing with my iPhone in the morning to see if I can’t get to that elusive, active “Join Boarding Group” button (stare longingly at it if I do).

— Work out that “refresh screen” finger for stamina and speed (potential positive side effect: this might also result in improved Toy Story Midway Mania scores!).

— Get the rest of my family members who have iPhones to do “get to ‘Join Boarding Group’ button” dry runs.

— Remember to breathe and to maintain my sense of humor...

It's 12:30PM and RSR still has FP available. Space Mountain has a 40 minute wait. MFSR is at 30 minutes.

Soooooo...really not anywhere close to capacity.

Tomorrow might be a different story.

On a slightly different subject, has anyone tried the Play Parks game that goes with Rise of the Resistance yet? I wonder if with no standby you have to pass up too many pieces to be able to do it as part of a BG...
