Those cameras haven't been active for awhile, unfortunately.
...and it's absolutely INSANE... I'm so glad I'm not working.
There's definitely more people than last year.

Awww, that sucks.
Anyway, I definitely know now not to ever go to the World on NYE, especially EPCOT.

Yes but the next wave of guests just showing up for fireworks are just now heading to the MK.
Last year I only got as close as the TTC.

Same with Stitch. Oh dear, one can only imagine if SGE has a wait!:dazzle:
I bet it does. People will eventually want to just get on attractions so when everything is crazy waits and SGE is still 10 min they will go for it.

It does, lol.
We got up to about 90 minutes on SGE last year...

Sheesh! I was there last weekend and I only saw it at a 5 all day.

Well, SGE generally has a 5 minute wait...
But you have to consider the fact that it has the ability to load 132 guests EVERY FOUR MINUTES. (plus 4 wheelchair spots and 4 seats for their guests)
So, yeah... technically 140 people every four minutes.
Potentially 2100 people an hour.
SGE is a people eater... so you know MK is busy when the extended queue begins to fill.

Hmm, I didn't even know the capacity aspects of the attraction. It's fortunate enough that I don't see it with a wait because if I do, then I will realize it is time for me to go home, and sometimes I don't want to! :lol:

Ok brain fart here.. What does SGE stand for... Stitches Great Escape?
If so how can they load every 4 minutes?...

Yes. SGE is Stitch's Great Escape.

It's HarmonioUS, NOT HarmoniYOU.
Remember... there are two 'theaters'... so it must be staggered? :shrug:
I would assume so.

From start to finish (allowing for a 5 minute hold time in the main queue), the attraction takes roughly 20 minutes.
HOWEVER...
SGE has two pre-shows and two chambers.
Your experience at the Prisoner Teleport Center consists of:
*Holding Area (queue)
*Lobby (Message from the Grand Council Woman)
*Briefing Room (the room with Sarge and Skippy)
*High Security Chamber (The actual show)
And as soon as the load of guests finishes with the first pre-show (lobby) and enters the second pre-show (briefing room), the main outer doors open and another group of guests enters the building.
This happens every 4 minutes.
Hope that clears things up a bit... it really is a genius design.

Can anyone update me on Epcot? Is it in any phase at all? My family and I are considering driving there tonight. Thanks so much for the help.
Happy 2009, everyone! :wave:

At this moment, there are no parks in phase closings. This could (and probably will) change.
