My bad.

I think you’re right.

My phone doesn’t show the trail of replies very well. I thought you were replying about modifying.

So to modify to another tier or park you have to actually tap into an LL.
But to book another one in the same park you don’t have to if it’s expired.

Correct?

On the advanced thread I believe someone confirmed it? That was what I went and found, but I haven’t been able to read through everything over there!

That is why I always try to quote, lol. I get lost so easily. Someone thanked me yesterday and I have no clue why.

But can you still use that expired LL? Or is that like modifying the first LL?

Correct. Basically the pre booking rules apply up until “day of”. Day of seems to be when a person taps into the first LL, not a specific time as previously thought. So you can modify and book new LL under the pre booking rules any time before you tap into the first LL. Then once you tap you are free of the Tier restrictions and are able to book at different parks as well.
An expiring LL does open up the opportunity to book a new LL. But you have to follow the rules of Pre-booking or day of- depending on what applies to you at that particular moment in time.

Seems to be the solution for everything.

So far, the expired LLs have acted the same as they did with Genie. But now you have an official 60 minutes grace period. the 119 “in-practice” grace period has been tested and confirmed.
This is a conversation for the Advanced thread though. This opens up some stacking possibilities.

And I don’t really like it! I wish you could just tap into a park. It not only gives a big advantage to Rope Droppers but severely penalizes people that are only going to the parks in the afternoon.

I hate to say this but I think a person that was muted for 30 days was right about how bad this was going to be for people that didn’t go to the parks in the first part of the day :grimacing:

Agree. Makes me appreciate the defunct 2-hour rule. I had planned to only go to the parks in the afternoon for a relaxing trip with DH, but now I’m having second thoughts.

Well, the whole “sleeping in and stacking for the evening” is no longer possible. Definitely bad news for those who utilized that strategy.

Doesn’t mean the new system is terrible.

Remember how much we complained about it! (or how I complained about having to wait 2 hours after park open to start stacking).

See the advanced thread about how to potentially get 6 stacked.

I need the Jeff’s of the world to give me a nice summary. Too many posts to go through. My head hurts.

I have been consumed with the threads for the last 3 days. If I hadn’t been, I’d be waiting for Jeff’s magical summary too! I may read it just to brush up before I leave tomorrow.

I don’t think you HAVE to stipulate this :rofl:

Some people already KNOW when they are right :alien: (and they tell you quite often)

That might be a case of :shushing_face: , but yes I believe you can use it. :blush:

I guess it’s up to @Jeff_AZ what he puts in this thread and what is best left in the other.

I think there was a little to much drama with the statements. And really, it was all just conjecture. And I’m thinking they will never see that I said they were right (on that very limited topic only).
But it was wonderful to be told I was stupid and didn’t know what was good for me. It was almost like raising teenagers all over again.

I admire you for that. :muscle: I’m sure you will have a great time!
