Parks Game...Part 12! I Can't Believe We're Still Playing!

What is the name of the clock in the German Pavilion

The Glockenspiel?

EPCOT's Eiffel Tower...Maybe 1:14?

 

[outlander]

Nope, not penalizing you on technicalities...it's actually larger (per the source I have) than 1:13th.

My book, The Walt Disney World Trivia Book by Louis Mongello says it's 1/13th the size. I'm curious as to what the 'correct' answer is!

 

[ryley26]

Plutospup a ticking AAQ
P.S. 1/13 the is the answer i've found twice

Name the attraction whose building is done in Classic English Georgian style, and whose structure contains 110,000 bricks

Hmmm....very interesting. According to my book, The Imagineering Field Guide to Epcot: An Imagineer's-Eye Tour by The Imagineers, it states (on page 114) that it's 1:10th the size. Not sure what we should consider the 'correct' answer. Looks like we have a genuine, bonafide DISboards mystery!

Oh great Park Game founders, what do we do in such a case!?!?

I"m not a PG Founder just an original player

In this case AAQs are awarded to those players who answered 1:13 since they can "prove" their answer.

Just aside ... when we started playing this game the questions had to be based on what we experienced or learned/observed in the park ... it encourged folks to take a virtual stroll through the different parks while living in the real world

Thanks for the insight, DisneyJen!

Here are scaled-AAQ's for outlander and ryley26!

 

[plutospup]

JPN4265 is correct! The American Adventure was built with over 110,000 bricks!

As for the Eiffel Tower question, my suggestion is "Let them eat cake"! Croissant AAQ's to all!

 

[outlander]

I wonder if there isn't an *exact* answer to the Eiffel tower scale question (?) because of the forced perspective. Some parts may be scaled differently.

I don't know. C'est la vie! Please pass the croissants

What country does Kali river rapids flow through

 

[ksdave]

Since it is in Walt Disney World:
The United States of America.

 

[outlander]

What country does Kali river rapids flow through

India?

 

[JPN4265]

Here is a question for the most seasoned veteran of Walt Disney World:

When Disney World first opened what attractions in the Magic Kingdom were "E" ticket rides? (Here is a hint, there were six (6) of them).

 

[Hypermommy]

India?

You beat me to it, Outlander. Of course, I've just found this wonderful game! What a great idea.

BTW, it seemed that the next post under yours was a new question. Please forgive this newbie's confusion but do we not wait for an answer before asking a new question? Or maybe this is someone that won a previous answer and gets to ask a question? Thanks for helping this newbie understand this great game!!!

 

[ryley26]

Oulander your correct a floating AAQ
Hypermommy your correct we usally wait but if you have a AAQ and the game is waiting you can ask your question.

 

[ryley26]

How about Jungle Cruise,Country Bears,Hall of Presidents,Haunted Mansion, Small World and 20,000 Under the Sea

How about Jungle Cruise,Country Bears,Hall of Presidents,Haunted Mansion, Small World and 20,000 Under the Sea

Correct ryley26, and here is your ("E" ticket) AAQ ticket.

 

[outlander]

Welcome Hypermommy It's good to have you here.

Here's a quick rundown reminder of the rules:

You may ask a question after correctly answering a question and being awarded an AAQ (Ask A Question) card.

Questions should be in bold to allow us to follow the game more easily.

Lurking is okay, but it’s a lot more fun to jump in and guess! There is no punishment for wrong answers here!!

Questions should be focused on the four WDW theme parks in order to maintain our place on this board. A continued thank you to the moderators for allowing this game to continue for more than 3 years.
