We got our confirmation email for the 11th as well. Ours was also in the spam folder.
 
I called member services and was told that there are some spots held for walk ups or I may get in without a reservation in the case of no shows. Has anyone done this? Any idea what my chances would be?

Not sure where the CM got that information, but the event details page specifically says no walk-ups.

Reservations are required and limited. Unfortunately, walk-ins will not be permitted.

I booked for December using my desk top computer and had the same issues as everyone else, but was eventually able to get through. Now, I know no one will feel bad for me, but I need to book the Feb. event while I'm actually at WDW (yes, another vacation) and will have to use either my tablet or phone to do so. Has anyone had success using either? I do have a smart phone, but not an I-phone and not quite as "smart."

I booked for December on my iPad.

I used a kindle fire hd tablet (several years old) to book the 12/4 EPCOT MM. Had to use Public Wi-Fi in the Sydney, Nova Scotia cruise terminal. Ship's Wi-Fi blocked all Disney websites. Very happy (and lucky) that worked!

Wow!!!!This looks like it will be so much better that what was originally announced. I am looking forward to seeing the reports from the 4th. We will be at the event on the 11th.
 
I'm at BWV, just came back from MK. There was a "noise notice" slipped under my door. 11:45 Illuminations on Dec 4 and 11!

Excited to see Frozen included! We couldn't fit in a FP this trip.

Well I hope for the DVC event its not just straight illuminations being shown since its listed a special DVC event fireworks.
 
Just checked again, notice says "illuminations:Reflections of Earth".


Hmm... guess it could be anything. We go on 11th so will see what people from 4th say since had planned to see illuminations first before party started

I am at BWI and got the same flyer and it states Illuminations. We were in our room last night during Illumi nations and it was really loud with echoes off lake. Nice to warn guests.

Any updates from last night's party? I am so excited to see that they have opened up so much more. I was feeling very underwhelmed before heading into this event.

Any idea what the "Purchased experience" is for the DVC lounge?
 
We went. Enjoyed it immensely. Our strategy worked for us, first meeting with the execs, then getting ice cream and drinks. No waits. Then we we went to get photos with Joy and Sadness. Shortest line we ever saw for them, maybe 15 minutes if that much. From there we went to Nemo and were curious who the friends of the Festival of the Fantasy parade were. It was two of the dancers and there was no line. We rode Nemo and then headed to the merchandise locations on the World Showcase bridge. They were already out of the larger sizes of the shirts, but thought they might have them in Imageworks, but it was too close to the fireworks, so we opted to wait. Fireworks were okay, about 5 minutes. Back to Imageworks, all they had left was small, medium and 3XL. Line for Jesse, Woody and Bullseye was pretty long, I would guess about 40 minutes, so we rode Test Track, which took only about 20 minutes. At this time it was 12:45,so we had it the International Gateway and took the waiting boat to the Boardwalk.
