Problem is none of the guest satisfaction data from any of the testing going on could possibly seen as a valid measure of how the program is going. We won't know how it will work out in reality until the day when everyone in the park could have made reservations in advance 60 days prior, and there is no paper FP backup.

We won't know how good/bad the system is until well after it is rolled out to everyone.

I agree with your sentiment, but the perceived quality of the beta testing will give us a clue as to when the full roll out is going to occur. Side note: I called because I wanted to see if I could add my discounted, exchange, voucher DVC PAP that I purchased in December to My Disney Experience. Anyhoo, several months ago this was an impossibility, now it can be done. The fact little details like this were being taken care of was also proffered as proof as to how close they were to full roll out. The NGE helper/expert I got was VERY excited and very helpful. At the end of the call I did the Disney post phone conversation survey. I wish I could remember the last question precisely, but it was something like what word would you use to best describe this call and they were all positive words (efficient, helpful, etc.) and "magical" was included. I'm not sure what qualities would comprise a "magical" phone call. Maybe if the phone call gave me super powers......

Interesting...we have it on xbox so no patch for us either... my 4 year old (who has been able to complete the entire lego pirates of the Caribbean game lol) has already figured it out (with a little help from mom and dad reading menus) and loves Disney Infinity...especially the interchangeable characters
yup. 1. it is way too simple for the gamer, and I am bored out of my mind after 10 seconds. 2. on the wii, it is not able to be played in 2 player mode, which is ridiculous, was never advertised as such, and we are ed.
A "family" game that only one person can play at a time is useless.

As do the people you are arguing with. Paper means little in the hands of a big corporation. You seem to be a bit trusting. Go leave $1000 in cash on the street and see if it is there in the morning.

Plenty more is going on about this than you apparently wish to accept. Multiple people calling in 7 months out complaining of no availability at their home resort. Told there are no openings. Then DVC MAGICally can accommodate them, then and there. There are fishy items going on compared to even two years ago.

But hey, some people make investments and are willing to turn the blind eye and ignore items. Not everyone does though. Those who are not afraid to look an issue straight in the face end up making items better for all in the long run. A types and B Types.

At heart we all just wannaB@Disney

Dear wannaB,

If it was as bad as you say...everyone would be leaving DVC and they wouldn't be building more

You mean more super powers, right?

Amusing side note. The ad at the top of my screen is for an xxxxxx. specialist located in Orlando.

Anyone want/need the number? :)
Mine is for people who can't unload their time-share, lol.

I had to edit the A word out of your post to keep it out of mine. Last time I was searching that subject, I got a bunch of those ads, lol.

And thank you @WDW1974 for your latest musing, even though it was immediately buried in a sea of ping pong balls.
Which is exactly what the apologists and paid Disney employees want to do... Bury the negative news...

Am I the only one who thinks 74's detractors really have shrines dedicated to him in some secret room in their homes? Yea... I think they do... Cause they just cannot get enough of the lad... Come out of the closet 74 fanbois.... I'm sure he'll let you cop a feel and get your jollies by doing so...

First of all, @Tim_4 did not -- to my knowledge -- call @WDW1974 a lier. Tim said that the information he has about room occupancy over the summer was much more favorable towards Disney than what WDW1974 had previously indicated. Now, Tim might be accurate or WDW1974 might be more accurate -- or most likely both are accurate when looking at the data through different filters. So what?

If you want to believe WDW1974 and dismiss Tim_4, knock yourself out. But you called him out and said he had to "produce evidence"? Why? Where has that burden of proof fallen on anyone on here? Tim_4 has indeed provided valid inside info, stuff that has been confirmed by people like @articos and Martin so I'm pretty confident he has his sources just like WDW1974 has his. But different people and different sources might indicate different things. That doesn't mean that either is lying with the "facts" that they offer here on a message board.
Yes he did. Go re-read the posts. He said his info was "not true." His sources? Ha ha ha ha Go ask him about his sources!!! HA HA HA!!!!!

I've never seen the amount of "lurkers", new posters, people who haven't posted in years chiming into Spirit's threads and bashing him recently, and not so subtly trying to get him banned and his threads deleted... all for the "sake of cleaning up Magic." Every one of them have the same MO; concerned members... who never post here, even the ones who have join dates from years ago. They lurk in his threads, only post in his threads, and complain about him hurting this site. That's their only contribution to this community, complaining about Spirit and his threads.... Which they could easily not post in. And then they get a spike of "likes" from other members you've never heard of (but a few you have !). Very, very fishy, if you ask me.
