DVC made some changes to Moonlight Magic Registration. Are they good or bad? Historically, you could open multiple tabs on multiple devices and browsers. Every tab would enter a virtual queue. When one of your tabs exited the queue, you could enter your member number for validation and register for the event. The strategy worked great for those who knew how to work the system.
