I’ve only been able to get them until 6:00. After that they shut off. So I always walk in with 3 in hand.
Some people are just more $pecial than others.
They were not handicapped, it wasn’t media night, it was after 7 pm at Space Mountain (in the dark) and later Splash and Mansion (with spooky actors). There were special CMs with iPads to verify their special status.
Rider Swap for groups with young children? No more paper tickets anymore so they use the iPads for that now.
Don't Golden Oak residents get unlimited, anytime FP+s?

Yuck.
They weren’t swapping. Whole group was entering.
I’ve never seen it at a previous party and it was a lot of people. I’m talking a group every 30 seconds getting in the Space Mountain queue.
That would be an exceptional number of DAS. And it was right at 7 pm. People had DAS times already at the start of the Party?

Wow that sucks. We know the system still works till 7PM, but I don't know if that means you can get a FP+ window starting at say 6:55PM?
The second they startup FP's for the party nights it's over for me. (I mean it this time)
When I go in September if I see it I'll ask.

How do you know it was not DAS?
Did you notice if this phenomenon happened at later times? I've seen this before and wondered if it was a last second use of the 15 minute wiggle room they give you if you're late. It is also possible to get multiple use anytime fastpasses/any park (go to the DVC preview center, complain about something, etc.), but I would also assume this isn't too many people. I also don't know if their database management program does a good job of keeping track of when theme parks officially close, etc.
But, the times I've noticed this happening it always seemed to be pretty early in the party/evening EMH time window so I wondered if it was people just showing up a bit late and the CMs letting them go. Then, if its just the occasional straggler later in the night one would assume DAS.
I don’t. It was a much higher rate of entry than any other time during the day. I’d be EXTREMELY surprised if there were more DAS.

Could it have been a VIP group? I was once told that certain Disney folks are able to set people up with a "chaperone" of sorts who brings them through the parks, gets them through the FP lines, etc. etc. I'm not talking a paid-for tour here...
Too many for that. It looked like something paid for to me.

Maybe a ride broke down and they handed out fastpasses?
You can’t use FP during MNSSHP. They close al FP queues at 6 pm. This was after 7.

Thank you @MansionButler84 i thought I was crazy when I saw them too. Specifically at space. Was like what!? Safe to say this is the new norm? Either way was super annoyed as well....

Agreed. It was happening the whole time we were in line about 7:15/30ish. I too thought at first the CM with tablet was their “host” but it was constant and more than the 1 group. Are the special dessert parties including this as a perk now like Cruellas maybe?
