That's what I was thinking anyway since previous posts of yours backed him up. Well,if that's the case , ;) leave me ask you a question. Why do you only come around a few times a year, post some stuff, and then "cry" that you're fearful they'll know who you are, and then take down or alter your posts. And why do you scream "budget cuts', when they're not budget cuts, they're only differences in planning stage pitches, of which it sounds like you have vested interests? Sounds either troll like, or you're trying to make yourself feel important. :lol:

Yeah, & how he just mentioned he was in Shanghai and saw Pirsates. Would be easy for UC to track a vendor's employee that does those scene pitches from that. Sounds like a phony to me. I have more respect for Jimmy Thicke. ;)

Back to the topic of KAWG..am I not going to be surprised that they intended on them releasing the attraction on Independence Day? I mean; I wouldn't be shocked, as it could make sense to me. Who knows, but I guess we'll see...

I'm just giving a guess, but to me; I think that may actually not be a bad idea..even if it is on a national holiday like that.

Heh, anymore our guesses are as good as the insiders. I got the soft opening date right. Your turn for the grand opening. Jot it down ***Alexshow prediction July 4th official opening. If so, you'll be the "Insider for a Day". :):thumbsup:

Considering that we don't have the question of "Will it soft open today?" plastered throughout the topic; it isn't as bad.

Which does remind me again; will it soft open today? :dance:

FWIW, Rode today.

All effects were working and the line moved pretty smooth. We did have about 15 min of downtime though, but probably waited around 50 min.

Ok I need to be careful here because I consider him to be a friend and I don't want to reveal something that he has purposely held back to maintain his anonymity. For the most part I agree with his viewpoints. I love the industry and have been involved, not the extent that he is, but enough to know first hand that a lot of what he says is accurate. That is the reason I am defending him. I can speak to one of your questions because I believe he has answered it in previous posts. He has admitted that he does have an agenda and uses the forums in part to promote it. He simply loves the industry and hates much of what has happened to it. These posts are sometimes read by the right people and, believe it or not, can generate discussion. He has stated in the past that the main purpose of his posts is to vent when things get crazy. I'll tell him he is being questioned on OU and hopefully he will respond.

He has also responded to a similar question on the other forum. Who says he is in that picture and wasn't instead the one that took it?

You assume he is a vendor's employee and not a UC employee or that he was the one doing those pitches. Maybe he was just in those meetings or maybe he was told about them from his colleagues? To be honest with you I don't know because I haven't spoken to him about this specifically but it seems you are doing a lot of assuming (understandable since he purposely leaves out information to be safe).

It usually opens between 3:00 - 4:00 and then closes between 7:00-8:00.
