Show Quality Ops?

Who is in charge of giving the ok to run the attracrion if small or minor show elements are not working properly? Is it operations gsms, maintence, or higher ups? Used to be attractions front of line but, we weren't really kept in the loop of show elements missing or even being added unless we did a ride through. I dont even remember the idea of shutting down for a few hours to fix them even being considered. Also, know this will cause debate, do you think an attraction should remain in operation if small show elements aren't on? Perfect example, should pirates be closed because the water cannons and air cannons aren't working? Is it worth not getting as many guests through, and total guests that experience the attraction, for something that doesn't effect the entire ride as a whole?

I can't answer your original question, but in regards to your last question regarding operating a ride with defunct effects, I say no, that's not okay. It's embarrassing and show is one of the four major keys. There's no point in the show key if show isn't going to be kept up. Rides shouldn't be operating if one of the effects aren't working.

I can't answer who OK's the restart of a ride but I do know anyone can close it. While enjoying the CoP the last scene the dad's hand was missing. It was kinda disturbing. We let the CM know and he shut the ride down immediately.
