Tinker, you are right, I shouldn't have entitled it TGM. But, TGM did work for me because there are things that I have NOT mentioned here that I got from TGM....not the tour plan, but other tidbits (gems).
Thinking back, it was like this. My OWN plan was like a fast car.....and TGM was like my turbo booster. I could have really raced through the park using my own info, but thre TGM gems got me the rocket power to really blast off and cover my favorite rides more than once.
I figured that anyone who is into plannign can sit down and come up with a plan like mine. Now, after seeing what people are writing here, I realize that I was wrong about that. It IS hard for many people to develop a plan, which is why some people are insisting that I am violating a TGM code of ethics. One lady wrote to me that since her TGM plan was almost identical to MY plan, I MUST have gotten that info from TGM and I am in violation.
I plan luxury vacations for people and I have my own website. I spend lots of time arranging travel itineraries for people so that they can avoid cruise ship crowds on Caribbean islands, shop in fabulous destinations on days when everyone else is on the beach, dine in top restaurants when the crowd is doing something else, etc. I do not plan Disney trips since that has never been a destination that my clients wanted to visit. My clients are mostly escapists who want to avoid the crowds at all costs. So, I am sorry that I made the wrong assumption about this. But, I really wish people wouldn't have called me nasty names on the TGM site (what IS a "prat" anyway?) just because I was able to come up with a solution and posted it here on The DIS...and, at the same time, gave TGM some credit for HIS portion of my good trip to WDW.
I just didn't know that my every word would have been scrutinized so carefully and I'd be tarred and feathered for not being more specific. I'm not used to that kind of message board.
But, you are right Tink. I wish I wouldn't have mentioned TGM at all. Nothing against Mike. His info is solid. Some of his followers are just a little....uh...over-zealous?
For the sake of everyone, I'm unsubscribing to TGM. I'm going back to WDW at the end of the summer (as I said before) and I'm going to plan that trip, too. I'm going to share advice with people here and I hope EVERYONE has a fabulous time, no matter how you plan...or don't.
If any of the mods want me to delete this thread and make a new one about MY planning and MY itinerary, I'm happy to. It isn't worth all of the negativity that is being spread over such a happy place as WDW.
