Heya everyone and welcome to more Update! Please follow the words to the picturezone making room available to the internets visitors coming in behind you.

-Starbucking

-Test Track exterior loop has gotten some exterior signage along the exterior loop, including a nice Progress City tribute right after exiting into the outside.

-NewTrack is still great and all the effects were working.

-Illuminations does have a new alternating blink effect with all the countries popcorn lights.

-It's also still such a perfect show.

-Japan has some cheap Totoro fans perfect for the Ghibli fan on a hot day! Instabuy for lots including me.

-Eperfection

OK that's about it, on to the Pictures!

ENJOY!^^

EpcotServo's Updates #2.82- E N D L E S S E I G H T

Hello everybody, let's get going for a great .82 update on 8.2!

EPCOT


-Weather was hot as all get out, Crowds crowded.

-FastpassNextgeneverywhere. EVERYWHERE.

-Universe of Energy badly needs a rehab, projections looking mucky, MANY effects gone from dino scenes, attacking dinosaur now TOTALLY motionless, and an entire Doorwall not working meaning sound disrupting the end of theater b show when the dino music kicks back on. Not to mention curtains not working. Since Energy is only the most important topic affecting the future, it's half past time to put aside short term profit and work on a flawless new Energy show and get this Pavilion back to being a showcase of EPCOT ingenuity with it's incredible ride system still a show piece to be proud of.

-Heeeaaaaatttttttt is stinkyyyyyy

-Lettuce from the land is still so delicious

-All the effects are still working on Test Track! Plus the after-scene scores were working, as well as the Take-A-Picture with your design actually showing your design in the post-show. Aside from a general nextgen derpyness from RFID and giant touch screens, the overall show is still holding up really well.

-HAPPY EPCOT!

OK, so that's about it! Enjoy the PictureStuff!

ENJOY!^^

EpcotServo's Updates #2.72-Everything's Coming Up EPCOT

Hey there everyone! Updatetime again, now the first Updatetime of the year from EPCOT! Click on, fellow internet people.

EPCOT


-Crowds low, Weather Fine

-EPCOT at full EPCOT power.

-Soarin' Walk-On in the morning! Straight to B-1! Sets the mood of the day.

-New Test Track still freaking fantastic. Crowdflow worked exceptionally this time, straight from Design Room to Load, no crowding. Only things not working was one of the Hologram screens in the queue, 3/4ths of the Score sceens on the ride still not displaying your vehicles, and the onboard screen acting wonky as they usually do. In the postshow, all's working well. Only thing that needs to be added is the "take your picture with your design" stations, as they still don't let you choose your design.

-Seriously though, new Test Track is just fantastic.

-Mission Space. Still fun. Graphics/infinity screen looked clean and good. Force Feedback Joysticks a'Workin', buttons a'beepin!

-Maelstrom could really use some upgrades and new effects.

-Got to have linner at Teppan Edo. REALLY great. Fantastic cast, chief, and food!

-The Impressions De France digital restoration looks amazing, this has been said.

-But seriously, TWO people were taking FLASH pictures of Impressions De France. What. The. Why.

-The new bakery is open, looked crowded/popular.

-The IBM THINK exhibit in Innoventions opened, and is pretty cool. I missed the message statement film, so the content was a little fuzzy for me, but it's stated quite well and has plenty of cool EPCONTENT to enjoy. Realtalk: I spent most of my time frustratingly trying to put an icon in a basket in order to win a button. I will be back to win more buttons and learn more THINK-ey stuff.

-The Lava/Magma was missing from Universe of Energy, and the attacking Dinosaur static. Not good show.

-Whilst it was a tremendously EPCOT-spirited-day, It makes all the clearer for more original-intentioned shows in Imagination and Energy. Also I note, the general public seems to like songs again. We were a bit jaded with them in the 90's, but let's bring back the energy songs/Listen to the Land/Original songs.

-Seriously, great day.

-EPCOT.

OK, that's all for the words-now onwards to the Pictures!

ENJOY!

EpcotServo's Updates #2.65-The Living Daylights Savings Time

Hey peeps-und-peoples, and welcome to YET another Update! They just keep comin' along and I invite you to check em' all out. Let's go!

EPCOT


-Weather very nice, Crowds very crowded

-Epcot Evening: At Full Epcot

-Test Track's new canopy is in action

-They're also cycling said Test Track at night

-The Chew & Booze event brings in quite alot of people, many need to "keep thine shit together man"

-There's still a scattering of Epcot 30 pins and merch, including the Day-Of shirt.

-The World Showcase shirts are all still at the Villiage Outpost

-In the VoidScape ending of Spaceship Earth there was a very bright new star curtain. Not sure if new or just new light bulb.

-Whatever you think of the Spaceship Earth ending, I overheard a kid say something along the lines of "Our future was so funny"-Which gives an Epcotist the moral quandary of not thinking the future should be funny, and having kids actually have some measure of enjoyment when considering the future. Hmmm

-American Adventure is always so good

-Epcot, great park at night, or greatest park at night?

OK, that's about it. On to the galleryorama!

ENJOY!^^

EpcotServo's Updates #2.60- The Geosphere To Be Here

Hello UpdateEpcotPals! Welcome to the big Epcot 30th funtime Update, and indeed-a funtime was had! Lots to get to-so get on to it!

EPCOT

-First of all, the infamous merch line that was like three hours. I honestly don't get what they were thinking here. The little shop under SSE was immediately mobbed with people buying any and all merch. And yet most locations only had paltry amounts of merch (But plenty of the day-only shirts) and Mousegear was just mobbed with only a light line area planned, while they scrambled to plan on the moment what to do with it. I heard several stories from the craziness inside but I don't understand why they underestimate the own thing they plan all this merch for. It wasn't planned BADLY, but I surmise the entire event like the 25th: Well planned, but not optimized to mobilize the fans correctly. No set locations for merch, no several lines feeding into the plentiful amounts of registers at MouseGear, events timed strangely, Open edition merch that sells out and isn't restocked. Again, not planned BADLY, just not planned out to correctly handle and and optimize all the people wanting to buy stuff. I mean I only wanted to get the Japan World Showcase shirt but because of them aback at MouseGear not being able to open, I had to search around everywhere. And now I hear they're gone entirely? Very weird.

-The panels were very great, espcially focusing on the people who actually helped build Epcot. I am too ditzy/lazy to say all the great stuff and amazing people/stories-but do read about them online if you can.

-The buttons were great, as were the maps-which the maps were widely available at the end of the night.

-Illuminations tag was amazing. ALL THE FIREWORKS.

-Epcot!

-Crowds were medium to heavy.

-Weather was pretty to rainy

-I hated to see the ellen-attacking sea dinosaur stuck in one position.

-They played the classic music after illuminations, which was great.

-So overall I'd say it was better than the 25th in the amount and quality, and I did not attend the 40th which I heard was a mess. So overall better (With the exception of the awesome 25th gallery) but again, could have been optimized to mobilize fans better, and of course, should tell the people behind the scenes they need to start shaping up and get EPCOT on it's core principals again. And maybe splurge on a new Imagination ride I'd hope.

-OK, that's about all.

-On to the pictures!

-Factoid


Enjoy! ^^

EpcotServo's Updates #2.59- 21st Century Boys

Tuturuuu! Hello and hey there everybody, welcome to another Update thing! Let's thing it up:

EPCOT


-Crowds were mild, weather was mild, followed by hot, followed by rainy, followed by night.

-EPCOT Snack & Booze preview! As expected there were many foods and wine-type beverages being consumed merrily by people.

-I love the Epcot 30 windows at Mousegear and Art o' Disney.

-The Land's new Land-scaping that Update broke last...few...whenever it was, still looks great.

-Test Track is in the thing-converting process

-Mexico has a new lobby exhibit that's pretty well done. And it quotes El Rio!

-"Lalalala, lalalala, lalalalalaaaaaa"

-At Norway they're now showing the movie with the doors open letting people just walk through at all times. It's really distracting if you want to watch the show and kind of bad show I think.

-Reflections of China was a pretty great rehab of the film

-The Nextgen Posts are starting to appear suddenly and mysteriously everywhere like the black cubes from that Doctor Who episode.

-No matter where I serve thy guest, they seem to like mine kitchen best

OK, that's about it for some stuff. Now this stuff!

Enjoy! ^^
