This can't be right...it's 8:03 and I'm still seeing regular boarding groups...

 

[gerilyne]

I am playing along at home today, and I am not getting the back up group message and it is 8:03am. Anyone at the parks that can confirm this?

 

[woody74]

Same, so weird!

 

[tsumgirl]

This is my first time trying to play along from home, and there are still regular BG available at 8:07am!

 

[ironband74]

8:06...still on regular groups. Did they not open the gates today or something?

 

[Niebz]

We’re in our hotel. Got boarding group 19 right at 8. It does look like there’s still boarding groups though.

 

[Iron Dan]

Back-ups started at 8:07

 

[tsumgirl]

8:08am and it switched to backup boarding groups

 

[ironband74]

I guess the price increase really did them in...On Backups now at 8:08

 

[gerilyne]

Well... I wonder if it is slower today, they didn't let in as many people early.....Mando somehow made the Jawas extend the regular boarding groups....

I'm guessing that the hard ticket event tonight could be playing into lower daytime crowds.

 

[TitusPullo]

Will be interesting to see how many regular boarding groups were given with the 8pm close to non event guests.

This is the first morning I've played along and home and I'm surprised that there are still BGs available, it seems. If you aren't in the park, can you tell at what point they switch to backup groups?

I am in. Boarding group 10. Galaxy s10 at Rancho de zocalo. Seems pretty empty. They let us in starting at 7:23

It’s a Wednesday so on one hand I’m not overly surprised the groups are still going. However the regular BGs lasting 7 minutes sets a new record by almost triple. I’m really curious where the threshold between regular and backup is now. Especially since on 80s night it was 41.

 

[njchris]

Lines were pretty short to get in at 7:30 today. I got boarding group 11. Assuming they will start at 10 today.

 

[tsumgirl]

I saw the popup that backup groups were done at 8:23am. I'm not sure if it was a delayed message or not, because my screen did a weird flicker.

ETA: Sorry I realized it was a delayed popup to say regular groups were done. I caught the wording incorrectly when it flickered and closed.

 

[njchris]

I still love hearing people cheer. It makes me happy. So much positive energy all around.

8:29- backups still available - makes sense with the extended regular groups to 8:08

This is the first morning I've played along and home and I'm surprised that there are still BGs available, it seems. If you aren't in the park, can you tell at what point they switch to backup groups?

I was about to click Join Boarding Group again while I was playing along from home and the main page showing the Current Land Status etc. had the message change to say something like all the regular boarding groups had been distributed, and I would be placed in a backup group. It was in the paragraph text, so I could've easily missed it if it hadn't changed while I was looking at it.

ETA: I've now been getting a popup message 15 min later, as well.
