ooh found this, fun video:
Ok, just because I'm curious (currently following the situation in WDW and here from my desk in PA)- to me it looks like they've probably admitted to the park way more people than will be able to ride via the boarding group system. Won't there be some sort of riot when the system goes live and people who lined up at 3am don't get a spot but people who were just admitted to the park do? At DHS it seems like it's pretty random once you're actually in the park. Or is there a different system being used here?

Ride has a capacity of about 1,500 pph (extra staff will be on hand today to get it to run at max as much as possible). Disneyland is open from 8am to 12pm tonight for 16 hours of operation. This means the ride could get through about 24,000 people today. I wonder if there will be 24,000 people there before opening? They also could keep calling boarding groups until 12 tonight and run the ride until 1am (even though park is closed) to get them up to 25,500 people.

The app is showing wait times, and the land status is Open.
Did the park open early?
Edit: it just went back to CLOSED status. Falcon is at 15 mins.

Boarding groups gone in 22 seconds.
Backup boarding groups now.
State 1 = Open
State 2 = Paused
Looks like the backup boarding groups are starting at 82, maybe just a safe low number in case of any long down times.
EDIT: All backup groups gone as of 8:10:51.

Not in the park, but the backup boarding groups are active as of 8:02am.

22 seconds is record time. I was expecting 10 minutes.

Have you been to DL? There are way more educated park goers like all of us who go there (my guess would be 30-50% on a given day) that know the importance of getting a spot ASAP.

A friend strolled into the park today at around 7:50 AM and got boarding group 13.
Do we know if Disney is limiting 1 group # max per ticket, or can people *theoretically* ride twice by trying for another boarding group after riding, if groups aren’t all booked up.

Yes. What a jerk. Educated based on WHAT? I was going by DHS expectations. Yes, get a spot. I never knew that. Sigh.
watching YouTube live stream. Adam Woo there.

Have you been to Florida between 11/1 and 3/31? Or August where you get absolutely drenched before getting on a frigid bus? I’ve been cold and wet many times at WDW. At least DL usually empties out when the sun is wet. In FL, it could be a tropical storm and there’s no impact on the crowd.
