Which crowd calendar do you find most reliable?

Last year we went the week after Easter and followed one crowd calendar more than the others and as I am starting to see crowd calendars appear for our Thanksgiving trip this year, just curious if anyone has anything positive/negative about their experiences.

Where are you seeing them? We are going g the week before you and did not think they were out yet.

Undercover Tourist and Touring Plans....plus I am looking at last year's Easy WDW to get an idea.

I like touring plans myself. I've never had any problems with it. But to be honest...it's just ONE of the things I use to pick my parks for each day. I also look at what night shows are going on that day, when the EMH days are, and where the day falls in my trip and what parks I've already planned on so far. I also do not freak out if it ends up a little busier than I thought...once I planned out my days I don't go back and refer to the crowd calendar to see what the day was supposed to be. I'm usually too busy enjoying myself.

The best thing to do is use both. When they agree, you can be confident it is highly accurate, when they don't agree, evaluate both and take your best shot. They are predictions, after all and are not set in stone.

They are like pirates laws: More like guidelines, actually.

We used both this past September and it worked well.

I prefer easywdw. I used to use touring plans but found them to pretty consistently underestimate the crowds during the times we go. And I watch their website, it seems like an awful lot of days they talk about how they did with yesterday's estimate and the are quite often 1-2 points off (in a bad way). The past few trips, I have found easywdw's predictions to be pretty spot on.
