It seems he forgot which one was logged on when he typed the previous messages. It's a little freaky, to be honest. If he works there at all it seems he's a lighting tech or something. He's claimed to be a character, a lighting deigner, and numerous other roles. We all just laugh at his stories now. I'd just keep performing in Spectro and don't worry about looking for "either" of the posters. They're the same, desperate person - "neither" of whom actually works in parades, entertainment, or characters - or possibly even at WDW.

It's frequently totally off... Also depending on where you sit & watch it... Some of it is due to the pacing of the parade floats, sensors, radio calls, etc... Yeah I've had times when my float audio has been totally out... Yeah, so much so that I could totally hear the conversations of guests along the route... Tonights Spectro didn't have any issues like this that I'm aware of though...

Abandon ANY topic he (or someone similar) posts in, and just start a new one. The topics (and him) will just "fade away" if everyone agrees to do that (I sure will). So, this is the last time I post on any thread involving him. Thread starters, please do not take offense as I disappear from conversations over the next couple of weeks. (p.s. I'll start an email campain to that effect, and I suggest you all do too. this guy is just TOO annoying).

I like my parades (and shows) loud as well.

Originally Posted By EPCOT Explorer OK, this thread is hysterical. I don't mind SpectroTragic, but I think MSEP is the more original, more classic, more fun parade. Greatly looking forward to seeing it this weekend.

I'm assuming that it's all year, since the seasonal on/off rotation of entertainment seems to be a DL-only type of thing. WDW seems to be more consistent throughout the year, even if they do have strange schedules (Fantasmic!, I'm looking at you!).
