Stupid Guest Tricks

I am not a CM, but I have had my fair share of stupid guest tricks. My most recent one was at MGM. I was getting in line at Star Tours. They had both lines open. We got in the right side line and walked to where we could see the line. The right line looked long so crossed over at an open area into the left lane. It turned out everyone was standing on the right side and no one was in the left so I was at the front of the line. The CM loads people from the right line first which makes sense since we just got to the front of the line. As she is loading people, this mother comes around the corner and see me standing at the front and turns to her son very loudly says "See it doesn't pay to cut in line." The CM looked at me and rolled her eyes. I ended up riding in the same car as that lady. So it pays to read signs.

Welcome to the Asylum. (If your not crazy yet from the stupid questions I've posted, you will be)

The "left line" is used for Fastpass return.

Since you recently came here, my guess is that Star Tours is dealing with the same situation we are at Coaster....we have pastpass running, but it's pointless to use it since there is little or no line.

Get this guys, Coaster was at a very long wait....of ten mintues. I looked at the system (This was at about 6:30 last night) and the last time change was made at like 10:10 in the morning....

So yeah, quiet days until next week.

Heh -- reminds me of one time riding Star Tours last year. FP was operating but unnecessary -- the right line was non-existent! There were about 25 people waiting in the FP queue, and we walked past them all to the loading area!

Welcome Queencat!!!

yeah well at least it wasn't indy today. full digs, one side of the film room, holding both lines, 120 minute wat, all because someone spilled thier drink all over a LARGE portion of out queue, reducing us to one side of the film room. and we couldn't call 105 because we had 15 vehicles on. and the station was empty, because somebody spilled. fun times, but back to the subject of reading signs.

At marquee, standing under the wait time: "how long is the wait?"
Having learned that it does not protect me from stupidity, i poked my head out from underneath, starred at the wait time, looked at the guest, looked agian at the wait time, looked down the queue, and said "about 120 minutes." they continued onward, bewildered.

When asked a question like that I usually look at the wait time sign then tell the guest. 50% they realise how stupid they are. Of the total about 25% say "But is that accurate" Argh sometimes I wonder. Hence why I hate Greeter at Pooh oh but CDS likes to put me there. I was there for an hour straight today (well I was there till rotation bumped me to the computer then I bumped the person at greeter to break)

Okay, time for a code update. I know only the first three of the codes in the 100 series, what are the rest? WDW only uses 101 and 102.

100 Delayed Opening
101 Attraction Down
102 Attraction Up
103 ?
104 ?
105 ?
others?

I've called 2200 to tell them Mansion was 106. We had lost an ER for an hour or so putting us at 105. Then it got fixed putting us at 106. I had never heard of a 102 or a 103 till a friend who went to Plaid told me about them. Steve on of our leads had the card and we were looking at it and for the code for someone with a fire arm (907 I believe) said "Man wit a gun" we laughed for a good 10 minutes about that (it was late and we were tired)

Thanks. Very interesting to see where the differences are between the two coasts.

One question though, why both:

104 Attraction is operating
106 Attraction is operating (Full capacity)

What's the difference between them?

When you come back up from a 101 you're 104. If you have to be 105 for any reason (it varies on attraction) and you fix the problem to be back at full capacity, you can't call 2200 (Maintenance) and tell them you're 104 because well you're already 104 because the attraction was running the whole time you were 105. (I hope this is making sense). So you tell 2200 that you are 106 instead.

Yes. You are 104 after 101, and 106 after you go 105.
