Originally Posted By Ursula All I saw was the fountain jets. I don't know if I'd call that bad show. It is still all new and they have been doing testing and checks and maintenance so that the night shows go smoothly.
Originally Posted By lesmisfan the entire platform is designed to go under the water. But i think because the show is still fairly new they are probably still doing adujstments and tests,etc. Hopefully after awhile we will see the entire platform down entirely. I have seen almost all of it down but they generally have kept at least one of the three sections up
Originally Posted By SafariRob Hopefully you are right and the platform and jets will be hidden during the day in the future. To me, it's an eyesore. I'm thrilled about WOC...but hopefully this is not the price we have to pay.
Originally Posted By lesmisfan i dont think we will be. Heck every now and then they do the same thing with F!
Originally Posted By WorldDisney Yeah my thoughts exactly. They go out of their way to hide all the infrastructure of F! everyday, they will do it here eventually when they work out all the kinks. I know its still DCA, but we got to give them some credit .

Originally Posted By DlandDug This morning the the two side platforms were submerged, but the center one was in place. There was no work going on on top-- although a small watercraft was hauling around some of the ballast enclosures. I have not seen the full platform submerged since WoC opened.
Originally Posted By SafariRob Makes sense. Sounds like they are working out some last-minute electrical issues with that platform. Are the other two platforms completely submerged (jets under water)?
Originally Posted By DlandDug Side platforms were completely submerged. I wonder if there is an issue with the three projectors that sit at the back of the center platform?
Originally Posted By mickeymorris1234 Those projectors were moved a lot and for a while had a temporary housing so they could get to them a lot. I guess it could be those. Does anyone know if the Churnabog affects how the center platform goes down since they are so close? If the CHurnabog is down for the count and can't even raise up to let the center platform down that would explain it as well. Does anyone know if the Churnabog will be in the show at all anymore or is it gone for good.
