I'm not sure, I don't remember the even selling out beyond 2018 and 2019's Hell Week
I remember IOA hitting capacity a few times when the event was over there..but that was also during Hell Week
I personally would avoid that week at all costs

What factors are they looking at to gauge the success of an icon? Solely merch sales? Or survey responses as well?
Combo of what you said + ticket spending relative to Jack-centric marketing costs. Not sure how granular they really look at it since it’s a small part of the overall event, but if they really wanted to I’m sure there’s a team somewhere that looks at conversion of ticket sales deflecting from Jack-focused online media compared to more generic or IP-focused media.
It really depends on how you look at it. I could just as easily turn around and say that Universal NOT maximizing their revenue by hitting price equal to demand is taking away from the value of single day tickets.
Let’s say it’s $100 to get in and that gets me on all ten haunted houses…cool, $10/haunted house I’ll say that’s a good value.
But if I go on a night with thousands of FFP’s in the park, I only get on 5 houses…the effective price of my ticket just doubled. So protecting the value of the FFP’s really is almost a zero sum game.
Crowds will always detract from value, so it’s just a matter of perspective as to what has to give to ensure a good guest experience. Personally, I think it’s irresponsible for a publicly-traded company to ever leave money on the table so yeah, I’d say increase the price of FFP’s.
It feels good to be back!…I haven’t been on here in forever! HHN and Jack are returning! It feels just like old times again!

Does anyone know if the 3 house UTH tour will be seeing different houses than the 6 house tour?

Historically I believe, the 3 and 6 house tours always go to different houses

No, that's more recent. The 3 house tours had at least 2 of the houses the same as the full one. And maybe the third was a different one but not always. Or at least that's what I remember from when I started going (HHN 19)

I will say this regarding the UTH tours:
Historically, the guides are given a little leeway on what they want to showcase, and base it slightly based on the members and size of the group that they have.
Case in point, during our tour in 2016, we had a smaller group that consisted of several of us that were well versed in HHN already (already done the tour a few times). Almost no tours went through Tomb of the Ancients. Mostly due to the limited space in there, but also because groups were usually more interested in seeing IP houses.
I was shocked when our guide took us over to that tent, and let him know how surprised I was. He basically said what I already stated. That they're given suggested houses, but determined that we were a small enough group to go throw Tomb, and most of us would get a kick out of seeing an original house.
TLDR: Most tours will feature a similar mix of houses, but can very depending on the guide's whim. If you're interested in seeing a certain house, I would mention it when your group first convenes.

Subject to change of course. If a given house or two are out of commission on a given day, you could easily wind up repeating

Universal and Disney have been charging prices far above other parks for years now and have huge attendance. They can afford to pay everyone with the current prices if they wanted to but prob would love to blame increases on wages going up.

Looks like it’s possible that they’re getting ready to begin Sprung Tent facade construction!
Interesting window coverings in Lost Continent...
Maybe a little HHN shop/ticket sales location?

Seems way to early for them to be putting up HHN themed stores, and this is in IoA, hhn is not. Just my two cents but I wouldn’t get my hopes up
