History Detectives!

Wow, this is beyond awesome. :snap:

How lovely, the site is very interesting as well, I love main street and feel like a cretin for never really attending to the window lettering before.

Carousel horses: my favorite is the one with the bell streamers, for years I would make a point to ride that particular one on or near my birthday-must find out what his name is.

Jingles. Jingles is the "lead horse" of King Arthur's Carousel.

And the only one whose name I ever knew. I think I actually knew that each horse had a name, but didn't know where I could match those names with the look of each horse. Uh-oh, I feel a really difficult Mouse Adventure Quest coming on.


Ok - for the Fifty-Fifth, since we'll barely have a fifth of the people necessary to "take over" the carousel, what about a sequel where we each pick a horse whose name we like or has some significance to us, and we have to ride the carousel until each of us gets to ride on our chosen horse? (Pushing little kids off said horse to further this goal would not necessarily be allowed).

I think we all know which one BTD would like to ride

BwaHaha, I'm liking this idea more and more. What if we each have to choose a horse who excites us sexually?!?

I can assure that I was perfectly aware that each horse had a name and knew how to learn those names.

The logistics of anything using that information were just too daunting. Too many people needing to ride (since it they can't all be seen easily from outside the ride) and too much incentive to disrupt the operation of the ride.

But it was a possibility returned to regularly.

You could have just used those along the outer rim. I think quests requiring you to watch the carousel spin by you dozens of times are really fun!

Could have, but when doing that it was always easier to work with the actual appearance of the horses. Since the game is (or was when I was doing it) structured so you didn't have to know trivia to solve quests using the names would have required actually giving them to people.

I'm sure I could have come up with something that justified it, but I didn't.

I once had a quest that involved solving a puzzle using King Arthur Carrousel and then taking that solution and applying it to a new puzzle using King Triton in DCA, but it never made it to the big show.
