READ POST 1 & 2 FIRST-Rise of the Resistance Boarding Group Planning and Information-*No Spoilers*

[dina444444]

Here today and lots of people but very controlled. In parking lot at 6:15am and thru turnstiles by 6:35am.

Had 3 phone's going and got BG 32 on Google Fi and super pumped!

Thanks to the mods and everyone who have contributed to this thread over the last couple months! The info and accounts have been so helpful!

Can you check what group the backups starts with? It should tell you when you click on my status.

It's MLK weekend, parks are gonna be packed across the board

That's true - and perhaps people just in for the weekend meaning a higher percentage of guests have limited chance to ride RotR and thus more concentrated vs spread out across longer vacations

That combined with yesterday's issues ... I mean if regular BGs are 20% lower and crowds at opening were 20% higher that combination would make a big difference

Boarding Groups 7 - 16 now so seems off to a decent start!

Up at 5am
Lyft at 5:55
At DHS by 6:10
Tap stiles open 6:15
In at 6:30
Boarding group 20

Had to go to guest relations as we could not group the party and we were all in separate groups. They took care of that for us and grouped us with no issues. 7:25 and boarding A2S

Walked from Dolphin this morning, left at 6:30 after waiting on the boat for too long.
Through HS turnstiles at 6:52, two people in party trying for BG.
My app threw an error, my mom got in right at 7, BG23 for three people.
Took a Lyft To AK and currently just walking in for EMH.
Thanks to everyone here!

Kind of surprised backup groups are still available

Can someone who has a group assignment let us know where the backups start. It should tell you once you click on my status. I’m very curious what the number is following yesterday’s poor performance.

We'll also get that number once backups are gone

118+ is backup today

Got boarding group 60 for a party of 3. Had 3 phones refreshing on different carriers. Got through right at 7 and best we could do was 60 with a phone on Sprint. Verizon and WiFi phones didn’t even let us join until after 7:01am.

118 is surprising following yesterday’s performance. They must have worked out the kinks overnight.

There has to be a tweak in the number of people per bg

With how fast the regular BGs went today, 60 isn't too bad. Hope it works out timing wise for you

Backups are now gone

Backups are now gone

Was just coming to say that! 7:45 @SouthFayetteFan

Backups are now gone

Honestly surprised it lasted that long with how busy the park is

 

[GADisneyDad14]

Wish yesterday wasn't a poor performance and we knew exactly what they do in such circumstances so we could get a clean sample size on the first day of a holiday weekend.

 

[dina444444]

Eeks. It’s been stuck on 20 for a little bit now.

At 7 am, if your app is open to the join boarding group page, will it turn red in front of your eyes right at seven? Or do you keep refreshing?

I’ve had to refresh the 3 times I’ve been so far it did not automatically turn red.
