I am so out of the loop~

Are people going just to hang out and not participate? I am not knowledged enough to participate but I am really jones-ing for a day at the park....

We avoided the trivia because it's just not our forte. What we know is the park. The rest (movies, the company, specific dates, people, etc.), not so much. So it never made sense for us to take the trivia.

Of course, there was that time where we outscored everyone, including the winner of the combined, with our quest score alone. In other words, had we entered the combined and just ignored the trivia packet, we would still have won. Made me wish we'd been entering the combined taking 30 seconds to answer "C" to all the questions. But that was our last competative traditional MA before we were retired after the inaugural Enchanted Race.

Yeah, there's always a handful of people around that aren't playing. There's even the chance that the staff might want an extra pair of hands or eyes.

Of course, us competitors won't be particularly social once the event begins, but the milling about beforehand and the congratulatory/conciliatory dinners afterwards are always fun. And I'm sure it's amusing to watch as several hundred people scurry about the park doing some very bizarre things.

I guess, maybe, times and such are posted somewhere?

Hee hee, I am really curious to see several hundred people scurrying about the park doing very bizarre things....

I am going to go have a look see for schedules....

Thanks for the info!

Meh, trivia was our ace-in-the-hole.

Our recent lousy scores have not been so much a refletion that we're no longer good at the game as much as we're not as good at the different game that's now being played.
