0 Guest Posted March 13, 2009 Report Share Posted March 13, 2009 I used to love the Carmen Sandiago games! I originally thought of the same thing as the person above me, so I don't have a guess right know. But I do need clarification on a few things1. is it 4 eyes or for eyes. I feel that is a vital hint if its 4 and if its a typo, then i don't want to get on the wrong track. Also, 2. does this have anything to do with the game? And it does not have to do with Middle Earth or anything? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Gmaster479 Posted March 13, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 13, 2009 First, no typos, it is 4 eyes Secondly, nothing to do with the game but after I did my first Where Am I I wanted to popularize it because of the amount of WAI's on this forum Third, nothing to do with middle earth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Guest Posted March 13, 2009 Report Share Posted March 13, 2009 2 of the stanzas make me think of a college. they offer programs where you can like stay for free for a while before you actually come, which is like the first stanza. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 Guest Posted March 13, 2009 Report Share Posted March 13, 2009 Wow! Nice puzzle. Unfortunately, I have not ever read the books or seen the movies, but i still really enjoyed this puzzle.

0 Gmaster479 Posted March 13, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 13, 2009 That is too bad but they are good. I'll try and think of another one but first let me explain this one Explanation'] Come hither young talent (Hogwarts recruiting) There's nothing to pay (It is free, except for the supplies) Come visit the houses (Gryffindor, Slytherin, Hufflepuff, Ravenclaw) In which you will stay (Each house has its own dorm) The land around you is vast (Big campus) But not everywhere is safe (Forbidden Forest) Where there are spiders and snakes (Forbidden Forest/Chamber of secrets) Could be a horrible fate (Forbidden Forest/Chamber of secrets) History is everywhere (Hogwarts is old) From legends to ghosts (Legendary people have gone there, but more importantly The History of Magic class is taught by a ghost) Age leads to wisdom (Dumbeldore, the headmaster, is really smart) White beard holds the toast (He has a white beard, holds a toast to start every year) My halls filled with secrets (Many secret chambers) You're never alone (People are watching) Four eyes are watching (Filch the caretaker's eyes + his crazy cats eyes= 4 eyes) And don't use your cellphone (Technology doesn't work on the grounds) So welcome to a place ("Welcome") Where there never nothing to do (Well there is always something going on, can't write books about nothing) Where magic is in books (BIG HINT because it is so literal) Will never see you (Can't be seen by Muggles) Where Am I?

Question
Gmaster479
Seeing how there are a million WAI's out there. I'm going back to the good old days when I was playing Where in the World in Carmen Sandiego?.
Come hither young talent
There's nothing to pay
Come visit the houses
In which you will stay
The land around you is vast
But not everywhere is safe
Where there are spiders and snakes
Could be a horrible fate
History is everywhere
From legends to ghosts
Age leads to wisdom
White beard holds the toast
My halls filled with secrets
You're never alone
Four eyes are watching
And don't use your cellphone
So welcome to a place
Where there never nothing to do
Where magic is in books
Will never see you
Where Am I?
