Guarding the back door

The wheel starts out with it being the Alphabet Giant's turn to guard the back door. Has anyone tried using the map when, say, it's the Goth Giant's turn to guard the back door? Does the message accurately change to reflect that, or does it still say Alphabet Giant? --Gothhenge 00:56, 10 December 2005 (Central Standard Time)

• Answer: It still says Alphabet Giant. I got back up to that point in the game, and turned the wheel clockwise once (making it the Raver Giant's turn to guard the back door), but the message still says Alphabet Giant. --Gothhenge 12:16, 18 January 2006 (Central Standard Time)

I think this page needs to be corrected more. I was using it to get the quantum, but it said the Procrastination Giant had to NOT be guarding the back door (and I had the required items). I fixed that error, but now I think the other scenarios may have to be corrected to say that Procrastination Giant needs to be guarding the door. --Eggplant 23:07, 22 January 2007 (CST)

Possible reference: the Giant Castle Map feels like an homage to the babel fish puzzle from The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy Infocom text adventure game (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Hitchhiker%27s_Guide_to_the_Galaxy_%28computer_game%29#Notes). -- churl2 Sat May 15 10:57:58 PDT 2010
