I cant see how they could do it without a complete quene redesign.
If alien didn't need a Fp system then stitch will not need it either. I mean the theatre is probably large enough to hold a large number of guests per show. So I wouldn't worry.

glad...
I'm glad some of you reported on the consequences...last week I was in Disneyland, and wanted an extra fastpass for POTC so bad but had to wait (had BTMR).
Over in Disneyland the button is so freaking obvious and so tempting...to...push...the...BUTTON!
Truth be told, I even know how Indy's FP cover slides off and where the button is and...well, let's just say I'm glad you folks have mentioned the consequences.
'its scarred me out of foolin with the machines'...

I do pose this one question, how are the FP machines that are outside monitored? I know there is usually a CM there, but in the morning there isn't one all the time. And if there is a camera, it is well hidden.

I dunno, seems rather un-disney like to scam fastpasses and take away from other guests' experiences.
Actually I was only wondering. All the FP stsnds that are not under a covering aren't near anything at all. How can people say they are being watched whan there is nothing there. Come on. Besides I can't use the FP 'cause of the different printing, so using it is really really dumb. You absolutely will get caught. But that is not what this forum is about. It is just trying to find the loophloes in thr FP time system, not printing your own "personal" FP OK?

So these forums are all about trying to find loopholes in the system? Wow, here and i thought i was here discussing WDW....

Main Street is littered with the souls of those who have sought loopholes.

Just in the FP time system. So you can "Disney Legally" hold more FP's for the rides. Same happens at DL, just for different rides, and sometimes the season at the park.

Well, considering the number of people who try to make money off of Slip'n'fall lawsuits at the Mouse, people trying to find new scams doesnt faze me. People try to get away with anything....

There aren't any camera's surrounding the fastpass machines. And the button isn't particularly that hard to find, especially since the CMs working at fastpass distribution use them everytime a guest has a problem with his/her fastpass.
Furthermore, CMs hardly ever check the date on fastpasses...maybe once in a while, but the date is so tiny and in the bottom corner, its impossible. Even when they do catch someone using an old FP, the most they'll do is turn them away.
I'd like to know how they'll change the fastpasses to distinguish between the days, since they're not printed, the time is actually burned on them.
The bigger problem WDW has with guests scamming is the rider switch passes (baby swaps)..but at MGM they're starting to change that. The other parks all use rider switchs that are pre printed and pretty easy to steal, while Tower and Rockin switched to printing rider switches daily with the date printed huge in the center.

Well I have been to DL many many times in my life. And at HM and Spl Mtn the FP stands are outside. Near to nothing, just in a circle but really far from the line to the attraction. No CM's camera's, heck there isn't even a trash can. So if they are monitoring, how do they do it?

You don't think that Disney could have an extensive camera and surveillance system? With current video technology, the cameras can see you from miles away. (That might be a strech) But, you get what i mean. Disney could have a system in place that rivals anything you might see in Vegas.
