Yep. They’re not geared to getting you on popular rides. The current system redirects you to underutilized attractions. Lots of suggestions for Monsters Inc Laugh Floor and the like.I just want to find the nearest ride with the shortest wait that I haven't ridden yet.
The algos are going to show me something else. They will make it very difficult to find what I want.
Yes, they should repurpose the statues or something similar to make a SOTMK game that we can do with our MB+. Unfortunately the windows are all gone now, but we could still go to specific locations to unlock a battle on Play Disney Parks.On the other hand, if they give us games to play in the queue and sorcerers of the magic kingdom quests it could be fun.
Of course Uni is gaining shares. By means of the park reservation system and turning off the AP spigot, WDW is purposefully lowering attendance. They're not stuffing the parks with as many people as possible any more.

sad but true no doubtRight now Chapek’s looking at this long, winding queue of people waiting to see the Queen and is thinking, “how can we monetize this?”
Its "Big Brother" Mickey watching everything you do...

NEW New Fantasyland attraction:Princess Funeral After Hours events?
Let's say you have a very large monthly subscription.What do you mean by “generating DVC points per month”?
I wonder actually how much are they losing in merchandise sales.Of course Uni is gaining shares. By means of the park reservation system and turning off the AP spigot, WDW is purposefully lowering attendance. They're not stuffing the parks with as many people as possible any more.
The result of that is pure mathematics: A reduced share of the Orlando theme park pie.
And through it all, WDW keeps having record breaking quarterly profits. Because:
1. They're charging more and offering more upsells.2. They're only letting in as many people they have staff for, and so, less labor cost. They're not overstaffing in case they get a rush.
But anyway, a WDW v. Uni fight isn't the topic of this thread.
But DVC is a timeshare and has to conform to timeshare laws.Let's say you have a very large monthly subscription.
1500$ usd or more a month for the "premium platinum" whatever you think of.
Apart from having annual pass, you get like 1 point of DVC points per month.
Literally transforming the DVC program into subscription mode.
But DVC is a timeshare and has to conform to timeshare laws.
And even if people are given 1 point per month, that’s a contract and then that minimum has to apply to everyone buying in. Plus the dues will have to be paid! So at the end of your year of premium membership for which you paid the earth for, you now owe them another $85.
Cannot and will not happen.
And when do these rolling points expire? By the time you can weekend in a 2BR the first ones would be gone already.Plus, what's anyone really going to do with 12 points/year? 1 night in a deluxe studio during the low season at certain resorts? Hardly worth it, even as a "perk."
