The Future of Fast Pass Plus

[practicallyperfect77]

Yeah, I haven't figured that out yet either when I post from my phone. I hope that doesn't make me any less tech savvy.

Glad I'm not the only one. As long as that isn't needed to make FP+ ressies, I'm fine with being less tech savvy.

Funny I never named names, but some of those I was referencing knew just who they were. Shoe fits....

We were labeled A LONG time ago. You are just way late to the party. We even have a nickname.

why do you to be on your phone all day on the app. Isn't it in the magic band. You scan your magic band and your fp+ is on it.

You know, we should have saved this thread for Throwback Thursday.

Oddly enough I JUST "came back" to this board this weekend as we are trying to decide between an 8-night trip to DLR vs. a 4-night DCL cruise & 9 days on land - with those days including 5 days at WDW. I was trying to determine if it was "safe to go back in the water" of WDW.

I feel as though I never bowed out.

Although... A handful of the pro-FP+-2012 crowd are seemingly not participating in current threads. I won't name names, but they aren't here...

I was one of them- I went away for three months when my kids were born and in the nicu but now that they're home and we've booked their first trip I'm back

I bet you wished you could FP your way out of the NICU. So glad you are looking forward to making some great family memories.

 

[momof2n2]

Amen. NICU grads in my house, too!

 

[MouseClubMama]

They change quickly. Today's retorts may be no good tomorrow.

Good to know, thanks for the tip!

"Just when you thought it was safe to get back in the water."

Guess what we're watching at the meeting this week?

Haha yes! That would have been nice! There's not an app for that unfortunately .

 

[JanaDee]

Wow I've always enjoyed my back and forth with most of you but you're being a serious troll here.

Elitist message board "experts" pfffft

I can't believe y'all let this gem slip by without mention.

"Elitist message board experts?" Seriously?

So is he a troll or is he an elitist message board expert?

 

[Networth]

More monetization, that I would bet my house on. Everything else is all speculation.

I can foresee Disney using the tiering & 1 park only a day option they have going at the moment to their advantage. Either selling a package/ticket to remove tiers and/or 1 park FP's or offer it as an incentive to onsite, either way it's just monetizing the system.

why do you to be on your phone all day on the app. Isn't it in the magic band. You scan your magic band and your fp+ is on it.

If you want to access the MDE app in the parks you have to use your I phone. The app gives current wait times for attractions and your FP+ and dining reservations. You really don't have to use your phone, but I am lousy with times so I need to consult my MDE account while in the parks.

 

[surferdave]

Hey, where is the indicator on this board for "elite" and "opinion matters"? I've missed it and it could have saved me a lot of trouble.

What's the prize for getting in? No one can disagree with you? Everyone else has to agree with you? Are unpopular opinions getting deleted from the boards? Maybe the terms and conditions don't apply if you get voted in to the cool kids' table?

In Internet slang, a troll (/ˈtroʊl/, /ˈtrɒl/) is a person who sows ******* on the Internet by starting arguments or upsetting people,[1] by posting inflammatory,[2] extraneous, or off-topic messages in an online community (such as a newsgroup, forum, chat room, or blog) with the deliberate intent of provoking readers into an emotional response[3] or of otherwise disrupting normal on-topic discussion.[4]

That's exactly what he was doing by not actually discussing the topic - he can be a message board regular and still do that

I think he didn't answer the specific question because I already had; he as much as said so.

No. Although surferdave has rolled up to the meetings with that song blasting out of his Vista Cruiser a time or two.

I prefer this one...

http://youtu.be/ATsrCNJhic4?t=1m8s

The song is Schism by Tool in case you need help with the lyrics.

I know the pieces fit 'cause I watched them fall away.
Mildewed and smoldering. Fundamental differing.
Pure intention juxtaposed will set two lovers souls in motion
Disintegrating as it goes testing our communication
The light that fueled our fire then has burned a hole between us so
We cannot seem to reach an end, crippling our communication.

I know the pieces fit 'cause I watched them tumble down
No fault, none to blame, it doesn't mean I don't desire to
Point the finger, blame the other, watch the temple topple over.
To bring the pieces back together, rediscover communication

The poetry that comes from the squaring off between,
And the circling is worth it.
Finding beauty in the dissonance.

There was a time that the pieces fit, but I watched them fall away.
Mildewed and smoldering, strangled by our coveting
I've done the math enough to know the dangers of our second guessing.
Doomed to crumble unless we grow, and strengthen our communication.

Cold silence
has a tendency
to atrophy any
sense of compassion
between supposed lovers,
between supposed brothers.

I know the pieces fit

"The only opinion that matters is mine." I realize that many feel that others should just bow down to their greatness and accept everything they say as truth but that's not reality. A true discussion can change some minds but not continually saying someone is wrong without anything of substance to back that up.

Truthfully, something working well for someone doesn't mean a thing in the overall picture of things. Something working for everyone does.
