I'm so sorry - usually the 1pm window is open a little longer. If you have another device that can load time.gov to see the seconds tick by, have that up and try to hit Join right as it hits 1pm. Good luck!

I did that this time, and it didn't help.

The other annoyance now, is that my Dad is not used to doing long park days. We are up and going for opening, but if we do have success at 1, then we are in the park until an unknown time. He was worried about getting too tired, before, and this isn't helping.

After weeks of practice and syncing to a atomic clock audio countdown I got group #1. Thanks all for the tips and tricks. I get to make a perfect trip for my first time 8 year old nephew

Groups began being called at 8:30am (1-13). Groups started calling ~10 minutes earlier than yesterday.

Well @hopemax ...did you get it at 1:00?

Got BG 90!

Congrats! That should ease your concerns for a late park day too. That was one of (if not the first) the first 1pm groups even available

Exactly. I saw that they were doing well with calling groups this morning. So I had hope the few extra seconds and few extra groups would be enough. We camped out in the Indiana Jones relaxation station and every minute I refreshed to get the timing right. So I feel way less stressed now.

Well as a follow up... we got walked off the shuttle. Which for my engineer Dad was cool. we got to see the backside, which he enjoyed even though we didn’t get the big reveal.

178 is the last group of the night, called around 7pm (7 groups more than yesterday).

Did you return later?

They just walked us into the stormtrooper area, we weren't walked off the whole ride. We saw half the shuttle show, but not the whole thing.

You guys are pro's... thanks!

I still remember my family being so amazed I knew how to get us on this ride when it first opened. It was all thanks to this message board thread.

On this board I learned the following-
On the MDE app on your phone down on the far right are the 3 straight lines, tap. It takes you to the ticket and passes etc page.
Scroll down and open My Profile. At the top of that page to the right is your Family and Friends list.
Tap on that and your list will appear and you can delete them straight from there.
And when I refreshed on the computer MDE they were gone. Hope that helps.
Have a fun trip!

Incredible! We got boarding group #1 for the 2nd day in a row. Sitting outside on Verizon 4G. Got the atomic clock app running with a audio countdown to the end of the minute and then smashing those buttons with muscle memory due to weeks of practice. All the research and tips paid off. Thanks all.
