I am in another Imagineering competition called “So You Want to Be an Imagineer? Season 20 All-Star Edition.” This competition is a lot like Survivor so there is some strategy involved. I played in Season 19 (about 1.5 years ago) and finished in 7th place. I hope to do better this season, but it is a great cast of others who are passionate about Imagineering. So every elimination I survive is a gift. The two teams in the competition have had two challenges so far. The first was to design a Frontierland with some elements of aliens in it. My team went with a land we called “Tundraland” set in Antarctica (to access the website for the project, go to https://sites.google.com/view/tundraland). My main task was to develop a show based on the Southern Lights as well as some other entertainment options. Our team won that challenge, so we did not have to worry about elimination. In the second challenge, we were tasked with creating an overlay featuring Weird Al Yankovich in some capacity for a Disney ride. Through a development in the game, our team had to design a ride for Living with the Land at Epcot. My team went all-in on Weird Al even depicting him as a broccoli. My main task was writing and recording songs in the style of Weird Al (for my songs, go to Weird). To see the write-up of the ride, go to Living with the Land Rocks. We ended up losing this prompt (although the judges had a hard time deciding that). I was one of the three players considered for elimination, but the judges chose to eliminate a player named basketbuddy.
This week, the teams are tasked with creating a Pandora land based on the Avatar series for Tomorrowland in Disneyland. It’s a double elimination week so both teams will lose a player.
