Ok, I'll probably be going to Morey's Piers sometime in September, most likely a Saturday. I've never been there before and would like some tips. My questions are -
How are the lines?
What should I ride first / last?
Which rides are the best?
Which rides to skip?
Should I pay as you go or get the wristband?
And any other tips / suggestions are welcome. 
--------------------
Attention!!!!!
Check out my band's website - Myst band
Thanks for your attention.

I was there in late June (my 1st time since I was a kid) and the lines were not bad at all. Never more than a 5 minute wait for any ride. Check out my Jersey Shore Trip report for more info. I think the all day wristband is worth the $39. I rode all the coasters and NorEaster and Great White are the best two by far and the only coasters worth riding multiple times. Even though Jersey Junkyard is one of the worst rides ever you must ride it to understand how bad a dark ride can be. Maelstrom, Break Dance and Spinning Tea Cups (not the kiddie ones) are three excellent flats. I would have ridden more flats and tried the funhouse (Chamber of Checker's) but I was on strict timetable.

GET A WRISTBAND! It would be 20 bucks just for the coasters if you don't

Just to let everyone know, I probably won't be going to Wildwood this year (my dad said were going to Knoebels instead) so don't except any reviews. I might go next year so thank you for the tips anyway.
