Top Roller Coaster Myths & Rumors!
jray21 replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I've heard that it's safer to not have restraints on raft rides so you can escape in an emergency. That's why Europe and other locations don't have them. -

Also, what about 'magic seats?' Some rides have them, and people swear by them. -

Six Flags Over Texas (SFOT) Discussion Thread
jray21 replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
At least at Disney, it does take your fingerprint, to a degree. It doesn't take a picture or record your entire fingerprint. It looks at just a few points and measures the distances between those and converts them into a numerical number. Only the number is stored in their databases. While it's not as 'less intrusive' as the old system (they measured the shape of two fingers), it's definitely not storing your fingerprints. Any information that disney has wouldn't completely identify you, but it's enough to keep others from using your ticket. At least this is how it works at Disney: http://www.securitypronews.com/biometrics-comes-to-disney-world-2006-09 -

I've also heard CGA's Flight Deck was sinking, and would need to be replaced in a few years. -

I've heard that the Matterhorn is sinking because of all those years when the lagoon was empty. -

Yeah, you can tell by the face that its programing froze. Great pictures as always! -

Thanks for the update. I approve of all the food stand pictures. Are they fingerprint readers or biometric readers? This is usually a common misconception when people go to Disney and they say "I can't believe they are taking my fingerprint", because that's actually not what they are doing. Just wasn't sure if it's the same case here or if for some reason they are actually taking your finger print at Six Flags! Yeah, I hate it when people think they take your fingerprints. They actually take your DNA and implant an RFID so they can control your every thought. -
Photo TR: A Jiggidy Return to Walt Disney World
jray21 replied to Erik Johnson's topic in Photo Trip Report Archive
Great report! Lots of great pictures. I really love how nice the new Fantasyland looks. Every picture there looks amazing. -
I was just thinking the same thing. For so many years all of the locals wrote the park off and some people I talked to even thought it had closed down. Since everything has finally been resolved and finished, I think it will take a few years for locals to come around again. I'm glad everything has been resolved, and look forward to the park's future.

But how will we be in a restaurant? ADR's made it impossible to ever eat on property! Disney is not stupid. What Robb described above is exactly why I'm all for this program. The thing with Disney is that if something ends up not working, they change it. They are constantly evaluating and improving the guest experience. They've been doing this for a long, long, time.
-
Yeah, as glad as I am, it does really suck. They really need to get it together and fix all these little issues and do proper testing before they release any updates. I'm really surprised that they haven't fixed this one specifically since they could possibly be losing a lot of money. Too bad I can't gift out some doughnuts!
-
. Yep, it's still happening! I scored 960 doughnuts! It was the same thing as the glitch Amy got earlier. The surprise box where you can win 1-3 doughnuts just kept popping up. I'd collect the doughnuts, and it would just pop up with another box. It just kept doing that for a couple hundred times before it crashed again. When I opened the app again, everything worked fine and the 960 extra doughnuts were still there! Looks like i'll be able to get a bunch of premium items I've wanted. I hope the game crashes for everyone else too!
-
I maxed out at level 26 and got three doughnuts. Then, I got the dreaded harp of death. It's a pretty common bug where the title screen freezes and a harp noise just repeats over and over. Resetting, uninstalling, and all that stuff does nothing. They say to keep the device from auto locking and just let it go for a while. Some people said it took 20 minutes to finally work so I'm just letting it stay frozen with auto lock off. Hopefully it works. If that doesn't work, there's some hacker guy that has been fixing everyone's. It's annoying, but I'm glad it's happening now, when there's nothing going on.

There's been a few really good episodes since Michael left, but there have also been some that weren't nearly as good. I'm really sad to see it ending. Definitely one of the funniest shows I've seen for a really long time.

Disneyland Paris (DLP) Discussion Thread
jray21 replied to SharkTums's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I'm glad they're adding more stuff to the Studios. It was seriously lacking a few years ago. I'm also really excited for this ride. I love it when they add completely new franchises. They seem to do some amazing stuff when they have a 'blank canvas' so to speak. -

With how terrifying the Tram Tour was, I could only imagine how close to death this new boat ride will be. -
