Guy printed his own fastpass.

The problems I have with Fastpasses are how they are implemented on certain rides.

Rides like Space Mountain are fine, because they don't stop the stand by line for it, it just limits the capasity of the stand by line.

Rides like Buzz Lightyear and Test Track are the ones that ________ me off. Where they take every fastpass user...and then if there is room they might let a group from the standby line in. This then creates horendous stand-by lines that inch along. Can any CM's tell me the logic in this? It seems to me the way it should be worked is equal numbers from both lines. 10 from the fast pass, 10 from standby or something like this. Thus the standby line doesn't sit idly for 10 min.

Also...when I was just down there...we got to MGM at opening and went to go get fastpasses for ToT. Well we got there...there was a huge line...and CM's were handing them out like candy, giving you as many as you would ask for. The park opened at 9...and we didn't get FPs tell 1 o'clock. I feel like this is just making the system pointless.

There is a certain ratio that you would normally follow of FP to non-FP people. It changes depending on the situation and how many people are each line. It's up to the CM's own discretion. I've let a ton of FP's in at once when the situation called for it. :goodnevil

If Disney was able to fix the bug of allowing only park tickets be used in them, I think they need to fix it that the button shouldn't be there or that something happens so that it can't be found at all or can only get one by having a key in it and the button next to the key (somewhere in the back next to a CM). That way no one could get around it without having a CM staring at them as they did it. There are so many ways Disney could solve this problem and I think it's just a matter of time. For those that purposely cheat the system, out of the parks they go I say. I've heard of guests losing their AP for cheating the system actually. Disney puts up with a lot, but there are some things you must learn not to mess with. Cheating the FP system is one thing I would avoid at all costs.

For those of you who still want to cheat the system by pressing the button, here's something to read before attempting it. I also suggest you notice the consequences that can come to you just for being caught looking for the button. Hope this helps for all of you out there that insist it's not cheating, because I hate to break it to you, IT IS! Sorry to sound rude but it's the truth. Now here's the thread that talks about what can happen in this situation, and its about 7-8 pages long too, so make sure you've got some time to read all of it.

Wasn't there a thread a little while back about some kids who scanned & printed their own FastPasses? I thought this might have been another case...

I'm sure its easy to do and get away with IF you know what you're doing and have the right type of paper.
