I think with the changes to the FP system that went into effect earlier this year, it solidifies the fact that FP+ are for regular entry. Any use of FP for the party ticket was unintentional and due to the bug that allowed the previous loopholes. As we see people try to redeem these, I am certain we will see the MDE accounts getting flagged/locked. People should be somewhat cautious about relying on these. The safest course of action would be to only book FP for the days you have tickets, and add more once you arrive, or adjust your vacation package accordingly. No one wants to be in line at guest services when they could be out having fun.
This is different from the "cheating" methods though. This has been historically expected. I didn't go to parties before the FP+ era, but I assume that you could pull paper FP from 4-7 on parties days then. Since I have been going to parties the past 3 years, I have always booked 3:30-6:30 FP+. I have never done the "multiple MDE" method to attempt to get more than 3 in a day. When the SDFP system change happened, somehow the word got out to blogs and message boards "officially" (as a courtesy warning). The same blogs and boards that currently state that a party ticket will allow for FP+ using that ticket only. I would expect an official announcement rather than relying on guest services email replies for this information.
