    Innoventions West to Close in May?

    I can second the confirmation. From my understanding, it's because neither Liberty Mutual nor T. Rowe Price opted to renew their contracts. If they opted not to renew and IBM THINK is going away as well, it's pointless to keep that building running. Believe it or not, The Great Piggy Adventure...

    Potential Ride System for Gringotts?

    Yeahhh, I was gunna say, I remember this was to be described as a family coaster to be less intense than Forbidden Journey for kids and families who aren't able to ride FJ...that definitely doesn't look less intense than FJ haha.

    Nasty incident outside Club Cool at Epcot tonight

    There's a VERY big reason as to why there is a very large OPD presence at HHN. Levels of alcohol consumption there make F&W seem like a cakewalk when it comes to drunk people. Every type of drunk is there, plus drunk line cutters and drunks who like to harass or even purposely injure the...

    Nasty incident outside Club Cool at Epcot tonight

    To be honest, I have no idea. I know much about Communicore but I don't remember where specific things were in relation to now.

    Nasty incident outside Club Cool at Epcot tonight

    So what if it happened to CPs? How would that make a difference if it was a CP or a regular CM? How would they lose their jobs if they did nothing wrong and were assaulted upon with no provocation?... Seriously. Try and answer that for me.

    Nasty incident outside Club Cool at Epcot tonight

    So....while the Slantinel has gotten half of it, they fail to mention the rest that DID happen. All of you think you know what completely happened (and some of you are half right about it) but all the rest of the details are completely WRONG. Here is the real story (and before someone calls BS...

    CNBC Article - Theme park economy on a great ride

    Because I believe in what the parks stand for and love the place dearly. I KNOW they can do better because they HAVE done better. Everyone here knows what WDW is, knows what they're good at, knows what they could be, knows what shouldn't be and knows what must not because of that very reason.

    CNBC Article - Theme park economy on a great ride

    Many of the points I wanted to address here has already been addressed. Much kudos to you @lebeau and @Ignohippo. Since many of you, however, are not posting some statistics... Yes, attendance keeps rising but not from where you think. Attendance is rising due to first-timers and...

    New Disney Parks CD to release this year!

    It is indeed part of exterior/postshow BGM. Remember, that BGM is about 20 minutes long so it's sad that they only choose one section of the BGM (haven't downloaded the album but that's what it sounds like from the preview) but it is indeed part of the exterior/postshow BGM.

    My Magic + details ...

    I don't doubt it. If those who are cast and front-line managers at the resorts who have their happy/excited bubble for NextGen deflate instantly when they see those kinds of situations, it's only the tip of the iceberg to think how the execs are reacting to this.

    MyMagic+ test starting today (Aug 2) allowing more FastPass+ selections at the Magic Kingdom

    It's gunna be hard to notice because, like the current FP system works when it comes to rolling time slots, it's gunna be instantaneous. The one very awkward thing about all of this, however, is that it will draw from the normal allotment. For example: Say the FP+ folks completely sell out the...

    My Magic + details ...

    They can do both in advance and on-site. There could be a large percentage of it going up when they get there at check-in, but still...shows that there's going to be a very long, very vicious learning curve when it comes to FP+. More importantly, there's going to be a lonnnng ways to go to...

    My Magic + details ...

    Other things I wanted to mention: 1) The MagicBands are being harshly received by convention/business guests, seen as something pointless when all what they want to do mostly is check-in, grab their room key and keep going. I know they're not the main target demographic but still, it's...

    My Magic + details ...

    Are far as I know, not yet. They did have the BLT test though. I think that one finished already before this current one. All who are staying at the resorts are chosen to do the test no matter what, it's not like before where the test was invite only (to my knowledge). To better state what I...

    My Magic + details ...

    A few updates... 1) As others have said, RFID systems went down all over property for 30 minutes after park open, affecting turnstiles as well. 2) From statistics being given out, only 30% of the reservations coming for this whole month have signed up for anything related to FP+. That says a...

    How MyMagic+ handles attraction closures with FASTPASS+

    Not necessarily. If you know someone who's a CM, all this info is actually all available on the Hub. What you said is true though. For Epcot, there's 3 categories...feel bad for those in MK or DHS. Ouch.

    Spirited News, Observations & Thoughts IV

    Because it's what keeps people coming in the long run. You can have all the NGE, buses, bus stops, DVC resorts and parking lots, but if you don't have people coming back to fill them, what's the point?

    Spirited News, Observations & Thoughts IV

    Ha...I have a few things to say in reply to this. I'm traditionally a new school train of thought. I like big shiny things. I like innovation and progress. I like new technology. But NGE is profit spent on new technology for...what? In the end, we STILL haven't been given a full answer as to...

    How MyMagic+ handles attraction closures with FASTPASS+

    When the ride goes 101. As someone else said, that's at the discretion of the management team. They have final say over said situations. It is interesting. It is also interesting how this upcoming test starting 8/2 will be the first test that will cut into the overall FP inventory. Paper...

    How MyMagic+ handles attraction closures with FASTPASS+

    Holy crap... Woke up from a nap and this got leaked out; all hell broke loose. Okay, SO...to provide an official inside scoop on this policy... Just to let everyone know, WDWMagic and every other website reporting the same thing is half-explaining this in the wrong way. I was given the update...
