It depends on staffing. A lot of the ride operators are in highschool or college still and when we went to Physics day a lot of the upper management was running the rides. This leads to slow loadtimes/dispatches and a lot of stacking. If staffing is a problem, DeJaVu prob. wont be open. Demon also might not be open if they are still working on the paint.

It miscatches sometimes, so what, maintenence actually works on it here and gets it up, SFGAm has to have THE most diligent maintenence iv'e ever seen (between taking off a train on S:UF to work on it and then adding it 10 minutes later, to working on Vu all day to get it running right after miscatches).

On mothers day it had a 5 min shut down about 2 times and one for an hour once. It should be open cause if your by Deja Vu... you can expect to a see mechanic in the corner of your eye. It will probably be open.

It just needs to break in a little, it's always a little shaky right when it opens after it's been operating for awhile it breaks in and does better.

It opened yesterday at 5ish after fixing the trolley car on the second tower, and everyday I have been there, but it always breaks down. Just a few tweaks here and there, and it will be fine

Vu was down all day yesterday.
I don't have a detonator; its on a timer.
A countdown timer?
No, a count-up timer. It goes from one to explode.
