No trivia in the Open division, but those who did the Invitational who weren't swept were given the opportunity to pit their Disney trivia knowledge against David Koenig, as you know first-hand!

Yes! What fun that was! I could do that all day long! (Or maybe it was just the bed!)

Lol, NA!!!!

I literally walked in the room, shook hands with Daved, Lani told us to have a seat and I THREW myself on the bed. It was a joyous 5 minutes as I was starting to fade at that point.

I didn't even know that was David whom I played trivia against until Morrigoon told me later. Heh.

[wendybeth]

I can't help but wonder what the neighboring rooms thought might be going on in that room......

How fun, though. I think I would seriously consider participating in MA, just based on everyone's accounts. I would probably suck at it, but it sounds so fun!

Thank goodness we won something!!! We were told twice that we were on the verge of being eliminated, but we just kept trudging along, and we made it to the end. (And we weren't last!) We were walking out to the parking structure seriously contemplating opening the "sudden death" envelope, but we were somehow able to make it back to the locker in the nick of time to get the clue. And then we got to the HoJo hotel and almost got swept up there, but managed to get back on the road with minutes to spare again. My poor teammates were limping by that point and I volunteered to run in for the team, but they were determined to get to the last check in, and so we dragged ourselves up to Fowler's to the finish.

Luckily we got the Toontown thing right away, knew the answer to the Pooh question, and Grumpy4 and mamabot had already scoped out that collage wall the week before, so they were crossing items off the list before we even went inside the DLH. That saved us some serious time, or we never would have made it. (And I publicly admit that it was my mistake that caused us to screw up the postcard thing )

I'm still tired today. More coffee please!

Ha! Hardly. I think it's just a matter of the part of our brain that would otherwise tell us to stop (aka, intelligence) gets shouted down by the competetive part. You should have seen us the milisecond after we handed our packet in. We were literally shuffling around like convalescent home escapees, it was truly pathetic. Here we are on Tuesday, and I'm still in pain. I've progressed some. Yesterday, certain muscles flat out didn't work. Now, I'm able to walk about 98% normally, but still with a good amount of pain.
