Originally Posted By 9oldmen I didn't win, but my take on it is this: winning would have granted me maybe one(1) ride a few days before the official opening, and even then, there may still be a wait. Even the winners will have to wait for their appointment time, right? And since I'm an AP holder, I have the luxury of going all year round, including during the off-season when it's less crowded. And of course, this will be an attraction to experience again and again. I only missed out on a whopping one(1) ride. All of us, winners and non-winners, will have plenty of chances to experience the ride.

When we go in October and December, we can go on it, with, more than likely, minimal wait.

Originally Posted By poohbear14 I'm with you Elderp. No Nemo win, no million dreams win. I spoke to a CM the other day by the finding Nemo queue. He said they expect the lines may be 4 hours long. The queue wraps back and forth several times by Nemo, then wraps several times again by the area that used to be used for smoking by Autopia and then wraps several more times on the platform next to the pathway to Small World. If the line is any longer they may have to stop the line at parade time. I guess I'll have to wait until the novelty dies down.

Originally Posted By amazedncal2 ^^ I feel the same way. Knowing that others on LP didn't win either makes me feel a little better I'm still a tad stunned that we didn't win and it's almost surreal now knowing that we aren't heading to Anaheim next week. What shall our club name be? "I didn't win a ticket to the Nemo AP preview and I'm trying really hard to be OK with it Club?" Too long?
Originally Posted By imbartalk I got a 10 pm reservation on Wednesday. I will be leaving from Portland, Oregon that morning at 3-4am. What do you think the over & under is that I will make it. You have to include stops for breaks, bathroom, eating, & naps. Will there be a receiving party for me? I'll be alone and can take 2 more people with me.

Look, the people who won receive two things: one chance to ride this attraction (which all of us will be able to ride a few days later), and they get out of one, just ONE, four hour wait (and that's a worst case scenario). What else are they going to get? A pin or something? are they going to get endowed with superpowers? A trip to Sydney? Look at it this way: pretty soon, you'll be able to wait in line while reading your copy of "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows". You probably won't even be able to finish it. And from the way things are sounding, you may even get a glimpse of a parade going down Small World Mall during your wait, if poohbear14 is right.

A plane ticket isn't going to cost much more than gas alone, and by the time you add in wear and tear on the car not to mention on your sanity, this sounds like a job for an airplane.
Originally Posted By Elderp Congrats on the win imbartalk, being an AP from Oregon you deserve that win. Now, if you can just get here. I wonder how many winners out there wont show up.
