Quite frequently in Spectromagic, float pieces are missing, not working properly, and feature less cast on the floats. Unfortunately, I have nothing to offer on your original question. Your terminology is new to me, but I do find it an interesting tidbit.

It's not like SM is undergoing a renovation like the Share A Dream Come True parade which would explain its absence. The only change I can think of on this parade is that the Genie replaced Roger Rabitt as the conductor on the music float. I'll reluctantly give Disney the benefit of the doubt that the reason the float piece was missing was due to maintenance.

I can't imagine it being the hardest level... i would think driving the floats at night would be more difficult since it's dark.

Originally Posted By Mickey Mouse Lover drving at night and day haev nothing to do with it. Its the visibility factor that you ahve out your tiny window and the size of the float as well

Originally Posted By Mickey Mouse Lover no tehy night floats have larger holes since they are harder to notice than during the day
Originally Posted By trekkeruss Okay, that makes sense. Just curious though: if you want to become a parade float driver, why is this imfomation so important to you? How would knowing what the levels are help you to be selected for such a CM role?
