-Annual Tournament of the Knights: A contest between one of each kingdom's knights. Winner recieves the Golden Shield of Lessmore.
-Badger and
the Boulder: A Gummi Fairytale as recited by Sir Gawain. Seems there was a badger
who came home home to find a boulder rolled over the entrance to his home. No
matter how hard he pushed the boulder always rolled back into place. But this
was a smart old badger. He got the idea of rocking it back and forth, back and
forth and soon rolled the problem away.

more than Gummiberris.

-Flying Machine: A vehicle created by the Ancient Gummis to transport them from
place to place way of air. Fueled by Gummiberry juice. Most
likely, this is a helium balloon, not a hydrogen balloon (because the air wasn't
heated first). The propulsion system is also of interest because it is powered
by gummiberry juice, a sign that the juice probably contains some high-energy
organic compounds.
-Frank and Ollie: Two of the Gummis famous Nine Old Bears, according to the
Tall Tales of the Gummi Bears. Obviously a reference to Disney's Nin Old Men,
including Frank Thomas and Olli Johnston.
-Frugle Tree: Tree grown exclusively in Dreakmore. The fruit is considered "yummy"
by most Ogres.

-Gummadoon:
Magical castle that some ancient Gummis retreated to from the greedy humans
500 years ago. A magic enchantment makes the castle vanish only to return once
every 100 years when the stars align correctly.
-Gummarine: This
is a very interesting contraption, and demonstrates some of the true hidden
technologies of the Ancient Gummis. When Tummi opens up the bottom of the Gummarine
to sabotage it, he finds a complex maze of pipes, and by rearranging them, the
controls function imporperly. The controls of the Gummarine were most likely
a vacuum tube computer, and many other Gummi devices may have had similar hidden
vacuum tube computer systems -- The Gummarine's system was quite disguised from
normal view.
-Gummi Bears:
Short furry bears with a lot of intelligence and history.
-Gummiberry Juice: Red potion that gives Gummis the ability to bounce extra
high, and humans super strength.
Recipe: 6 red berries, 4 orange berries, 3 purple berries, 4 blue berries, 3
green berries, 1 yellow berry, and then the 3 step stir. Stir slow to the right,
slow to the left and then Bang!, hit the side of the pot. Should result in bubbles.
This
is by far the hardest to explain... The first half of the recipie deals with
the ratio of one color to another, and by viewing results of failed or sabotaged
recipies, it is obvious that the color ratio is very important. This leads me
to suspect that the active ingredients in gummiberry juice are the dyes of the
berries. The second half of the recipie is the famous three-step stir... the
stirring action is probably to mix the juice with the air, and the juice reacts
with something in the air, probably oxygen. This is a volatile chemical reaction,
(which is where the slowly to the left, slowly to the right comes
in) as many organic reactions are, and it also produces another gas by-product
which must be removed by tapping the side of the bowl to get the bubbles out.
Of course, this still leaves open what the juice actually does. For the 'correct'
recipie, it probably stimulates adrenaline (the 'fight-or-flight' reaction,
which evolved differently in humans and gummies). As for the incorrect recipies,
I don't know how those begin to work.
-Gummiberry Juice (Song): Written by Sunni:
Gummiberry, Gummiberry Juice
We can bounce like kangaroos
With Gummiberry juice.
-Gummiberry juicer: Used to juice Gummiberries.
-Gummi Glen: Home of the Dunwyn Gummis.
-Gummi Scope: The Tall Tales of the Gummi Bears book says;
Near the
river source, on a mountain slope,
Lies a great machine called the Gimmi scope.
It can Harness the sunlight and shoot off a stream,
That can send out a message or burn with it's beam.
It was left
behind by the Great Gummis for the Gummi Glen Gummis to use when the time was
right. This
is just one of those two-lens focal point contraptions, except much bigger.
There is one inner convex lens, the focal point of which is at the center of
the outer, concave lens, the result being a concentrated beam of light. There
are also some smaller lenses (or possibly mirrors) on the inside of the machine
that always point towards the sun, and bend around the light to the desired
direction.

-Quick Cars:
The cars that run all throughout the quick tunnels. The
Quick Cars were most likely powered by frictionless flywheels. Flywheels --
frictionless wheels that spin at great speeds, storing energy -- are capable
of storing energy for a very extended period of time, even 500 years, if constructed
properly. They lose very little energy over time, and are quiet. The quick cars
were started by pushing a lever; this probably simply lowered the already spinning
wheel onto the track, in the same way that a car, lifted in the air, could spin
its wheels and not move anywhere until it was set on the ground.
