Flat Screens Installed @ IASW

[SpaceMountain77]

Four new flat screen monitors have been added to the end of the boat ride in the good bye room. All four screens appear as framed postcards.

Currently, the good byes are unchanging.

The IASW screens have been there for years. Never used.

Are these new monitors, or have they simply uncovered the ones that were installed several years ago and were immediately covered with "goodbye" signs?

The ones that were supposed to display "Please remain in your boats and listen to this annoying song a dozen more times while we take our time unloading boats"?

I thought the extended safety warning in the goodbye room was supposed to address you by *name*... You know, thanks to the newfangled MagicBands?

Perhaps they were uncovered. On Thursday, the screens were not digital.

Delivery of the additional screens have been delayed!

Those have been there for a quite a time, I'm guessing they have been a casualty due to the horrible plan of plussing the interactive elements inside the queues and the rides. Or who knows, it could be all ITs fault and waiting on them

I did notice the screens were on this past Friday and not covered. They had the same static goodbyes, but there has to be a reason to uncover them. Testing? No other reason to keep them there powered on.

Remember the plan to make the Queue for IASW interactive and place montiors randomly through the ride so your own avatar is in the ride almost 3 years ago and never happened...

That's accurate, a bunch of people remembered that these were put in three years ago.

True. I saw them used once about two years ago or so. Then now (as of Sept) they just have heavy poster board over on the monitors. If you look at the side you can see they are about 6" or so thick black boxes. Instead of just a sign. I have a few pics of them from past rides.

 

[Monorail_Red_77]

Well, at least they got the digital posters right in Town Square Theater. Maybe a few more years and they will get them right in small world. Of course, right before a big refurb to rip them out.

I don't know what y'all are talking about, those little demon kids always said my name when I was on the ride. That's why I stopped riding it.

I think the tin foil hat brigade killed off a lot of the ideas of the ride saying goodbye [NAME]. Although ET has been doing it for 25 years, but then as you give the name in the queue I guess you could decline, whereas a name on a MagicBand is locked in.

Personally I love the idea of more personalisation, just add a tick box to MDE to opt out of your first name and celebration being used in the parks for those who don't want iptheir name being used.

The MyMagic cost overruns put a halt to interactive elements not already in production.

Did the screen hardware come from a different budget then?
