News Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance Standby Line and Boarding Groups at Disney's Hollywood Studios

[disneygeek90]

We got 27! I tried the @Demarke method and clicked more info right at 8. Join boarding group was NOT red. Clicked my status, nothing. Pulled down the refresh, nothing. At that point my friend who opened from scratch at 8 was already selecting us.

I know some are having success with sitting on the main screen but I would NOT recommend for someone with a critical need to get on a specific day and only one person attempting the group. The fresh start is much, much safer.

Backup boarding groups gone by 8:06am - backup groups start with group 64 today.

I have Verizon and got BG 8 and BG 7 in 2 attempts last week. I'm not sure this hypothesis is right. It could be your provider and something else but definitely not your provider as the sole reason you get a bad BG. Just my 2 cents.

Agree. We got BG 3 and BG 6 with T-Mobile on different days.

He’s not saying your provider is the difference of a bad BG, we’re specifically discussing the potential success with the method of leaving the app open at 8 vs a hard restart open.

Well there goes my half baked theory

Well I kinda was. Partly tongue in cheek, partly maybe it was a provider issue and how many people are pinging a cell tower vs how many for each provider are in the area.

I just haven’t met a person with AT&T with an issue yet (cue someone chiming in )

Just seems strange (at least to me) that people who follow the methods we post get wild variances in results. Heck even friends I’m with who follow my procedure, I always beat them to punch

 

[DCBaker]

Great start today!

11am - current groups called 22-45.

Was the Beck spiel working after the AT-AT shoots at you?

Same exact phones? Same location in the park? (I stood in front of ToyStoryLand, probably 50 yards back) # of people to select? I'm not dismissing the theory, I just think there may be a little more to it.
