It can be FIRST & Disney related.
Mine is to get into the hot seat @ Millionaire. Did it last August but missed the 500 pt. question... d'oh!

I'd like to sneak around Animal Kingdom some and try to find out what's going on with Reign of Fire.

My overall goal, though, is to manage to ride every attraction on WDW property while I'm there - and this is going to be the toughest time I've ever had doing it.

What's Reign of Fire?
I don't want to go to Animal Kingdom. Me like Epcot.
I heard their parade their parade there is good. Has anyone seen it?

Reign of Fire is, most properly, a movie being released this summer. It takes place in the future - as a group of dragons awaken and destroy humanity. It sounds interesting.

In Animal Kingdom, Reign of Fire has yet to be constructed :) It's an inverted roller coaster tied into the movie's plot somehow. It's replacing the original concept for Dragon's Tower - which was too similar to Island's of Adventure's Dueling Dragons.

I love Epcot, but it really needs some TLC. . .

Whooa! We won't be going to Animal Kingdom b/c there's nothing there! But I hope we can see that parade at Epcot. It's good....
Anybody know the name of it?

You're probably thinking of Tapestry of Nations, though the name has been changed and it's a bit shorter than it once was.

But, that's the only parade I can think of in Epcot . . .

That sounds right. The one that has the drums and the puppets. And that guy on stilts. Right?

I want to do soooooooo much... I want to do FIRST stuff (of course that's the reason I'm going to begin with) But I also want to so stuff out side of FIRST. I'm thinking of a certain rollercoaster building simulator and a challenge. I'll get you Adam! Meeting new people is up there too on my list.

Yep, that's the one :)

Carolyn, you're going for a 5, huh? Good luck! :) My personal Disneyquest favorite is Battle for Buccaneer Gold. . .

That's Ice Station Cool, sponsored by Coca Cola - just in case it really mattered.

Some of those sodas are pretty nasty though. But, I always like to go in there anyway. Some of there are good. :)

:( I miss the original "Electric Light Parade" with actual light bulbs. Now they just have those crappy fiber optic "light" wannabe floats"

But, Last year I betrayed my Dew loving self and went to the Coca-Cola thing. It was actually pretty cool.

I want to go to epcot and put my picture on the big plaque near the front gate if it's still there, I ran out of moolah and couldn't do it last year!

That would be cool, having your pic at Disney forever!

I sitll think that the Epcot parade is better than that one.
As for the giant moloths infornt of the park, I would get one, but it's $30 and poor quality. But it would be neet.

I definitely miss the Main Street Electrical Parade. That parade kicked soooooo much booty!! I think that is my favorite parade. Spectromagic just makes me miss the Main Street Electrical Parade more. Grr...why'd it have to go to Disneyland?!

No, no. That's Disney's California Adventure :) Why did it have to *there*??

At any rate, if you all want something to look forward to a bit, Primeval Whirl is supposed to open at Animal Kingdom the week we're down there :)

This I know, but it's two more for the coaster count :)

Walk in. Ride. Walk out. Bada-bing, bada-boom, I'm up to 98 coasters or so.

I definatley want to meet some new people, that is always the best part. But I must say that i LOVE the Aerosmith rollercoaster, I used to be OBCESSED with the band, mostly their old stuff but i just love the ride Its always been my favorite!:p

me and my friend are trying to get a whole bunch of FIRST peeps to get together and meet each other and go to a park one night...anybody think this is a good idea?

I am going to meet new people, get as many buttons as possible, go off with my b/f and friends. And make sure at the wrap party I get to ghetto dance as much as I can.

Also I wanna go to Animal Kingdom since no one from my club would go with me last year thus making me not able to go.

The CD "Web Hug" *I think that's what it's called* if it happens this year.

The thing I want to do most at EPCOT is win the Championship :p
Everything else is just gravy.

P.S. I still enjoy Space Mountain :)

I have heard tell of sevral members of our team subverting the security on the computers there.
I personally have no recollection of that event.

If I ever get out of our pit...

I will prob. spend most of my time at MGM. I want to try Who Wants To Be A Millionare [because I DO!] and ride the tower of terror and the Rockin' Rollercoaster again.

On a neat note... I found out last year that MOE jerseys glow quite well in the blacklights on Rockin' RC; (along with my self-painted green sneakers that I wore everyday at nationals last year.):D

Oh well... i guess I'd like to do test track and space mountain again too...

i guess i should stop before I start listing all the rides I went on last year.

-DUCKY-

Disney... pfft. Any more of Disney World and I'll begin to twitch.

The one thing I want to do at Nationals is... umm... build a fortress! Yes, that's it. I'll hide out there, hunt the members of other teams for food, and defend against intruders by chucking cans of SPAM at their heads. All this in between my scouting, of course. YESSS! MY PLAN IS SET!!! MUAHAHAHAHAHAHHA!!!

*calms*

Remember... gracious professionalism, Isabel. Gracious professionalism. :D

I have not been back to my old high school (Brooklyn Tech) since the day I picked up my diploma. (31 years ago) They have a FIRST team and will be in FLA. I want to see them and meet some of the kids who go there now. Would like to see my current school (where I teach) partner with them. That would be the coolest thing. That would almost be better than winning something.

What I would like to do in Disney is collect more of the crushed pennies and quaters. I will requier many, many, many rolls of quaters and pennies though.
I will have to make my button collection bigger at Nats with all the teams that will be there. SO MANY BUTTONS, MUST GET THEM ALL...(Goes into trance like state and thinks only off collecting buttons and crushed pennies and quaters.):D
