Recovered Yet? Fall Mouse Adventure Date Released

Oh yeah - the yellow mystery part puzzle had one totally ambiguous instruction that the staff couldn't answer. It said to black out any squares in the the same row AND (caps theirs) column as a Q. Did that mean that whereever there was a Q, one was to block out the entire row and column containing that Q? Or that one only blocked out squares if they happened to be both in the same row as a Q and column as another Q? One version eliminated more squares than the other. (not that it would have mattered for us, since we couldn't unscramble the damn attraction name.)

We skipped the end routine because it didn't seem like anyone we knew would be there, and the door prizes are pretty lame. Honestly, I'd rather just have a bit WOOHOO! as the teams turn in stuff, and then we disperse for the evening and get the results the next day.

But we'll still be doing it again in the spring, assuming we register in time. Now that both of us know how to expect, and we're getting better at reading each other's minds, I think we'll be pretty dangerous come spring-time.

Is next fall still at EPCOT?

You had to cross out the Q and the whole row and whole column it was in. It was easy to get confused, I know I did. I read each clue about 4 times before marking anything to make sure I was doing it right (permanent marker makes me extra careful).

Sorry you all missed the wrapup. Joe had a really entertaining presentation.

Spring dates are tentatively April 26 or May 10.

Next fall will be at WDW and tentative date is Nov. 14. The event will require a food and beverage purchase, so that exact cost per person will be passed on. It will be a pre-game breakfast.

I had a blast, except maybe for the part where I had to hang out in Golden State Park to read trivia questions.

Florida? Well THAT will certainly change the scope of the game.
