The Behind the Thrills website is doing, like he do each year, its "best theme park website of the year" poll and everyone can vote for his favorite theme park website. 48 websites have been "nominated" and are in the poll list, and guess what, Disney and more is not in the list, just like it was not the year before and also the year before, etc...
His "criterias" to be "nominated" in the poll list are these ones:
As each faithful reader of D&M will have understood these four criterias qualify Disney and more to be in the poll list, and D&M is still not in, year after year. Considering all this i strongly recommend each fan of Disney and more to DON'T participate to the poll even if plenty of others website, starting by Screamscape of Mice Age deserves to win the "title". To have Disney and more in the list, and to win or not win, won't change anything for D&M and is no big deal, but i do care about fairness and it would have been fair to include it, specially considering his four "criterias" to be in the list. Obviously this guy is not doing his job correctly, so why participate to a poll which is obviously biased?
Here below is the message that i just sent to him:
"Hello, I'm Alain Littaye, webmaster of Disney and more and i'm writing you about your "best theme park" poll.
Disney and more exist since seven years ( first criteria ) and since SEVEN years is posting each day an update ( second criteria ) with regular pictorial updates about theme parks whether it is Disneyland Paris or others, like Hong Kong Disneyland, TDL, TDS, etc... In addition Disney and more is considered as the best source for Imagineering infos as well as unique Imagineering report ( third criteria ). Disney and more is read by 3500 to 5000 readers every day and for most of them its their favorite website. D&M is also on Facebook since one year ( fourth criteria ) and even if Disney and more exist as i've said since seven years, it's still not in your list for the poll, just like it wasn't in last year, and the year before, etc...
The most funny is that D&M is one of the sites to which Screamscape - a great website indeed who deserves to have been elected "best theme park web site" the last three years - is linking the most.
Don't get me wrong, i don't give a damn' to have Disney and more being in your poll list or not. If D&M was in the poll, it'll be fair and if it's not it won't change anything for D&M.
But i DO give a damn' when someone don't do its job correctly and that's exactly what's happening. There is still the possibility that you've never heard of Disney and more in the last seven years, which is even worst because not only you've missed unique updates that you won't have found anywhere else and that you would have enjoyed a lot like my 4000 readers do each day, but it also mean that you shouldn't do this poll because obviously you're not qualified for the job."

Disneyland Paris Christmas Season Update ! HD Videos of Each Event !
There we go, starting by the park entrance where Christmas decorations are in place everywhere whether it is on DLP train station or Town Square or Main Street U.S.A.
The Christmas tree on Town Square is a brand new one even higher than the previous one and, boy, this is a really big Christmas tree!
The characters snow-men in front of Sleeping Beauty Castle on Central Plaza are back this year!
DLP guests can enjoy the new Christmas Cavalcade, as well as a brand new "Frozen" float in the day parade, and here are the videos!
In Fantasyland, It's a Small World Celebration is back too, and i've got the full video of it for you!
Fans of Jack Skellington and Sally still can meet them in Frontierland but Jack is now dressed with his Christmas costume!
When night fall it's time for the Christmas tree lighting, with this year the new "Christmas Magic Wishes".
After the lighting of the Christmas Tree comes Sleeping Beauty Castle Lighting Ceremony and this year there is a welcome addition with fountains show and projections on the castle. Full video below!
And the Christmas season evening ends with "Disney Dreams Fète Noel", the new Christmas version of Disney Dreams! They did a fantastic job as the show is entirely made with new sequences, all about Christmas of course, and those of you who were delighted by the original Disney Dreams show will be happy to know that this Christmas version justify a new visit to Disneyland Paris during the Christmas season.
The show open with Olaf the snowman character from Frozen and a full sequence is dedicated to Disney's new animated movie soon to be released all over Europe...
...followed by one in which appear classic beloved characters, from Bambi to 101 Dalmatians.
There is then an absolutely charming tribute to the characters of It's a Small World.
In the second part the show includes a great and funny Toy Story "Nutcracker" sequence and chances are that the animation in this one is more or less the same than the one used in the new DCA World of Color Christmas show.
The next scene is all about Jingle Bells and guests are invited to join and sing all together the famous Christmas theme.
As usual fountains lighting and projections effect on the castle looks fantastic...
...and with the fireworks happening all along they deliver a brand new night show which deserves the applause from the guests!
