You know, back in my day, they didn't have these here annual passes... that had what we called 'ticket books' you see, and you actually could get into the park just on an admission fee with none of them tickets....
Originally Posted By t1lersm0m And to take the whole "admission" into account, then by the logic proposed in this thread, people who don't pay to get into the parks because they are CM's, and if they have any guests that get in for free, then they shouldn't get ANY FP's because they haven't paid anything for their admission. Now doesn't that just sound ridiculous?

"If there are any unused FP's for an attraction during the day, then other guests can have them. As many as they can get." Wouldn't this work for me (the person that just wants ONE) and for everyone else (who want as many as they can get?) Instead of limiting EVERYONE to just 2, how about at least saying EVERYONE gets at least 1?

What I want is to show up at 4PM and get a FP for the next day if they're gone for today. You're suggesting that if I want a FP for a Tues, that I should get there early, as early as 9am Tues along with everyone else who wants FP's. But 4pm Monday is even earlier than your 9am Tues, right?

I don't think they will ever allow you to get a FP a day in advance.

CM's, CM guests, and APers should get maybe limited FPs for the entire year. (ssWEDguy ducking quickly! as shots ring out in his general direction!) When I'm talking about my visitors from out of town, I'm talking about friends who come to WDW as PAYING GUESTS. The only reason I get with them is because we're friends, and I can give them hints at what to do and when. Otherwise, they're paying their own way in.

Originally Posted By ssWEDguy >> Why not just go ahead and tough it out in line? I'm being serious -- is that such a big deal? << Not at all. I agree with you here. I've said already this is what I already do, and am willing to do for the few encounters I have. That doesn't mean it can't change "for the better." Ergo all this talk.
