November is a slow time.....
but guessing what days are better and what days are worse.....is nearly impossible to do...my guess is ur best bet is to go early in the morning...
like as soon as the park opens....if ur going with little kids hit fantasy land first or at the other parks do the big rides first.....
but it won't be to bad in November with exceptions of thanksgiving.........and a little worse in October...if u want to go to a crowd chart check out here

From what I have read, early entry is permantly terminated
with disney explanation that not enough wdw guests were
utilizing the program.
Personally, I used it each day we visited because the park
is so cool without the massive crowds and you can ride
several times in a row your favorite rides (that are available during early entry).

The time you are going....late Oct. to early Nov. is a very good time to go and its not very crowded so you should not have a problem at any of the parks

With the elimanation of EE I assume that crowds are propably better at each park now since people should be more evenly distributed, right? I went in Oct. before and EE caused that park to be a lot more crowded compared to any other park you went to on the same day. I am going in Nov. as well this time and I think the crowds will be almost non-existent because of EE elimination, but I sure miss it. There's an awesome feeling when you get to the park that early and it seems like no one but you and your family are there, plus you can do a lot of rides before normal crowds get to the parks.

When we were down there 2 weeks ago, we came to our room at the Wilderness Lodge and found a note on the bed stating that Disney was anticipating heavy crowd days at the MK and AK and they would be doing EE for resort guests only. So instead of opening at 9AM, those 2 parks opened at 8AM. The date they did it was on a Saturday (6/1). I'm assuming they may have done it for Gay Weekend, but not sure. We were on that bus to the AK at 7:20, along with 500 other Wilderness Lodge folks! But it was great to be done with what we wanted to do by 10AM!
So, I guess if you're staying at a resort, they still have EE when it's warranted? Seems like that was the case when we were there...

Sunday usually isn't a heavy day. Being a weekend, it will be a bit more crowded than say, Wednesday... However, for some reason, it's not as busy as Saturday and Monday.
Oct/Nov shouldn't be too bad crowd-wise... so y'all will be fine. Also, keep in mind Entertainment schedules... (Fireworks, Spectromagic)... during those seasons, the nighttime entertainment might only be on certain days.

Early Entry
I don't know if it means anything, but I received a phone call from Disney in response to an e-mail I sent letting them know how disappointed I was in the cancellation of early entry. A few days ago when I got home from work I had a voice mail from a Disney cast member thanking me for my feedback and advising me to "check Disney's web site closer to my trip". She said that they had gotten a lot of comments about the cancellation of early entry. Evidently they cancelled it because they felt it was underutilized and a survey they took indicated that people wanted to see more of the characters at the resorts, which led to the decision to replace early entry with the character caravan visits. From what she said in her message, it sounds like it has not proven to be as popular a decision as they had hoped.
I don't know if the suggestion to check the web site actually means they are considering reinstating early entry or not but thought I would pass the information along. I must say, I was very impressed that I got a phone call from a real person!
