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

I would have complained! Talk about horrible.

We didn’t complain. We patiently discussed the situation with a GET CM. Let’s just say we should be able to ride later this week without participating in the lottery...

It really has become a lottery at this point. For the number of people that have to keep trying, that's just not worth it. Watch it on YouTube and hope to ride it in a few years.

Is there a team of technicians coming in from 4 pm to midnight trying to fix stuff and make it reliable then intensive testing from midnight to 8 am? I would hope.

Every attraction has engineering cast (technicians, mechanics, electricians) assigned to working on all three shifts.

They got all of your money, gave you a miserable experience, and you’re excited to go back even though they gave you something that costs them nothing.

What a great racket Disney has become.

Guess RoR finally made some progress. They are up to group 86...
EDIT: they made it to group 89

We’re here for 9 days, it was our choice to come during a peak period, and we have had an amazing time over the first 4 days despite today.

I definitely feel bad for a day guest today, but for us, in context of the whole trip, we’ve gotten our money’s worth. And the family we’re with who have never been...they are having a blast.

Err, that's what I meant, hehe. I would never dream of yelling at a CM, having been one of them. Have fun!!!!!!!!!

Would an early fast pass effect our boarding group number?

Nope. Boarding Groups are unaffected by FPs.

Lottery. And farce.

I pity the first timers or the regular fan guests. This is not how a theme park should present its offerings to paying guests.

The GET line is nearly 100 people deep several minutes after open. Can’t imagine what those cast members are going through on an every day basis.
