8/10 for me.
I should have remembered the Jasmine one, D'oh!
How Well Do You Know Disney?
Forum rules
At the old Disney Hyperion Studio, the screening room where animators would show animated scenes to Walt for his approval was small, with no ventilation or AC. Not only was it hot, but the animators were nervously awaiting Walt's reaction to their work. Thus, the room became known as the Sweatbox. Even after the Studio moved to Burbank and elegant screening rooms were offered to the staff, the moniker remained.
Now SGT has a sweatbox of our own. This is the place to find and post all entertaining topics such as video links, jokes, games, and the like. A general rule of thumb is that if the thread is meant to be informative (interesting news stories for example), or a topic for discussion (like setting up a park meet) then it should go in the Break Room, but if the intent is to entertain the masses then it's home is The Sweatbox. I'm sure there will be grey areas at times, so if you have doubt as to where a new thread should go, just use your best judgement and the SGT Staff will be glad to move it later if you guessed wrong.

I got 7 out of 10.
Why did they remove the jasmine scent? Was it hideous or something? I too guessed champagne, figuring too many teetotaling guests complained.

Re: How Well Do You Know Disney?
I got 5 out of 10. My excuse is that I live on the West Coast and WDW is not my home park.
However I dispute the answer for the former name of Mickey's Toontown Fair at least the way I read it. The original name was Mickey's Birthdayland which was in use for about a year and half (I think) starting in 1988 -Mickey's 60th. It was changed to Mickey's Starland and that moniker was used for a number of years. The former name of Mickey's Toontown Fair would be Mickey's Starland and NOT Mickey's Birthdayland, am I right?

Around here, however, we don’t look backwards for very long.
We keep moving forward, opening up new doors and doing new things, because we're curious…
and curiosity keeps leading us down new paths.
