I've found that the "signal to noise" ratio on the TGM forums is much better than it is here.
I love that description - I've seen you post that before!

TGM is a total waste of money. If you want to join a cult or pay money for information you can get for free elsewhere, then by all means pony up for him. If you want to learn how to get tour the parks effectively, skip him and spend your money on a more deserving source which updates its information regularly.
Hi everyone!
We are an extended family of 6 - 5 adults and one child, DS(who will be 8 when we go to wdw).
We plan to go to WDW in mid-August of 2009, staying 11 days, off-site in a vacation home.
DS has never gone to WDW but has been to DL many times. The adults have all been to WDW but this was over 8 years ago.
I am buying the 2009 Unofficial Guide to WDW when it's released this August.
I am wondering whether it's worth it to ALSO subscribe to TGM and touringplans.com for their touring plans and advice.
Since we're going in August, I do expect to have a plan, although we may only follow it loosely.
Just wondering whether subscribing to all 3 guides would be overkill and/or a waste of money???
What do you all think?
TIA!
I have heard the people on TGM are weird.

Oh my goodness yes, those TGM people are nuts - I mean, why would you want to be helpful to other people when it's so much more fun to yell at them for asking a seemingly innocent question?
Honestly,
I dont think its really worth it.
You know what they all say and there is enough info on the net to find it all out!
They all say get there when the park opens and run around getting the big stuff out of the way early or late, etc.
Personally, I like to relax on vacation! We have been to WDW many, many times. This is the 1st trip for my 2.5 y/o niece. But, we are stil taking it slow.
Sleeping in to about 9-10 and then get started and take our time with no plans. If we dont see something we are coming back in March, etc.
I just dont see the reason to be up at the rope drop in a sprinters stance and carb loading...its a vacation, you should be relaxing and enjoying! I guess some people are only happy if they know they squeezed all the magic out of every last spent penny!
