Let's see what I can recall of these things now...
Narnia game.. oo! I remember going to take a shower then coming back to read the forums to find out the game had opened. I played the game LOADS before I went to bed.. and actually made some good trades as some people couldn't find the game link on that first day. At first the Narnia porters were pretty rare and I remember my friend, Aceblueeyes, traded a whole 50th set for just one set. A few hours later, someone found the code generator and got as many as they wanted.. Must admit, tomorrowland and the quests were AWESOME. I got the first stickied quest answers.. w00t. Diby's Spring Cleaning Quest.. I watched him make that room, there was some AMAZING eye tricks in there. He always did good quests with even better prizes.. he also had the pin which many people only thought CL_Ned had.. diby refused to give me though. Haha. New Reg. screen with the offered names.. EpicBlueSkyMaroonShirtFlipsEpicNess.. they couldn't have got any worse.. Sword in the Stones.. you used my image :omg! I loved riding those things on clones to get pins.. the way they were put together by linking a public room with a guest, and simply the idea of paying 10 credits to enter was very cool. It was one of those things that could ONLY be done (and work) by Disney. Thanks for the memories UITA!
