Details on a new eBay promotion! Plus, wanted: Football players and Space Mountain Builders!
Thanks!
Everyone still full from Thanksgiving? Did you get enough Turkey, Tofurkey, or whatever special things you eat for the holiday? I know you haven't seen me in a few days and that's because I'm taking some time off to be with my family (and play some Wii…camping out for it was a drag, but I'm having fun now!). Where I am hiding? The Eastern part of North Carolina, in a place with no broadband service (and hardly any cell reception) so I can't jump in the game and say hello! But I'll be back next week… until then, I've got an exciting update for you!
Dream On!
Kids grab your parents to enter this sweepstakes for a chance to win VMK prizes. Disney has teamed up with eBay and the good news for you is that there are 7 prizes (1 is familiar but has never been released and 6 brand new items). How do you enter for a chance to win VMK prizes? You will need to get your parents to visit winit.ebay.com and they must have a valid eBay account. Then just click on the Hidden Mickey game and look for Mickey! Each day is a new picture and another chance to enter to win.
The Sweepstakes is running from November 24 December 3. Make sure your parents read the Official rules posted on the Web site. Last and most importantly, these codes will will only be valid until December 16, 2007. After that the codes will not work anymore!
Treasuer Detector Magic and a Dreams castle Turret Chair are just a few of the cool items you could win!
Now before you get upset and start sending letters, these are eBay requirements and not something we're doing to exclude our friends around the world. And one last note - if you can't play don't worry, you may see some of these cool new items back again&but that's all I can say!
Push's Pics
Be sure and take a look at the trivia trashcan Push's latest trivia category, 'Where in the Park?' Every month Push will take a picture from somewhere in one of the Disney Parks. Your job? Identify the location or attraction. Send your answers for a chance to win a secret Push prize (and let me know if you think the pictures are too easy or hard - Push knows the parks pretty a little too well and can be a tricky little waste can. Well that about wraps it up — remember to find those Mickeys and play the Football Quest to win the awesome football room. Uh-oh almost missed my turn bowling on the Wii — hey, I'll need to get a bit more rest before heading down to Walt Disney World next week after all this!
Catch you in VMK,
Yavn
P.S. I'll have news on the Holiday Quests next week — until then don't forget we're looking for your entry in the 'Build Your Own Space Mountain' competition! This awesome room competition promises to take everyone on a great ride! Sign up now!
Ride On Space Mountaineers!
Don't forget to sign up for our 'Build Your Own Space Mountain' Ride Competition! Details are below!!!
Conquer the Mountain
Announcing the 'Build Your Own Space Mountain' Competition!
RULES AND REGISTRATION
The 'Build Your Own Space Mountain' Competition is coming to VMK! This is an individual room competition. The objective of the competition? Make the best Space Mountain ride you can.
Your ride does not have to be modeled after any of the real Space Mountains but you must use only the new Space Mountain Track pieces (that can be purchased from the Inner-Space Shop).
Have fun and be creative - you can decorate it or build it however you like, but again remember, you must use the new Space Mountain Ride Tracks. Registration for the 'Build Your Own Space Mountain Ride' Competition starts today (11/20) and ends on Sunday (11/26). Here are the rules:
* Your ride cannot exceed 3 rooms in length. This means you can either have 1, 2 or 3 rooms total for your ride.
* The Start Room for your ride must be named in the following way:
Space Race PLAYER NAME.
Here's an example:
Space Race JoetheMouse.
Rides will be judged on the following categories, so keep these in mind when you're building your mountain: Best use of color, best theme, most creative and finally best overall ride experience.
10 winners and 1 Grand Prize winner will be chosen from each category.
Registration will be open Monday November 20th through Sunday November 26th. Only players that register exactly as instructed will be judged. Prizes will be announced after registrations have been closed and awarded after the competition has ened.
To register use the Contact Us Form.
Please INCLUDE ONLY your Player Name and on the next line, the title of your Start Room. Only the first registration will be accepted and multiple registrations from the same player will not be allowed. You WILL NOT receive a confirmation email about your registration and only registered players will be judged.
Give the following information, putting each item on a NEW LINE:
1. Player Name
2. Name of Start Room
PLEASE NOTE: Your room name must begin with 'Space Race followed by your player name. Again, here's a correct example to register.
Only registrations following this format will be accepted:
ShrunkenNed
Space Race ShrunkenNed
Judging will take place between Friday December 1st and Sunday December 3rd. You are not required to keep your ride open during judging, but we hope you will keep it open during the event weekend so other Players can enjoy what you have created.
Now that you've had a chance to play with the new Space Mountain tracks are you ready to show us what you can do with them? Take your friends for a ride! Imagineer your version of Space Mountain using the track pieces provided in VMK. Have fun, be creative! Build it and they will come - you may even win!
34, 21, 12, Hike!
Didn't camp out all week for a PS3 or Wii? Not to worry VMK has some Thanksgiving gaming goodness that you will enjoy just as much! Like so many millions of families we're going to be celebrating this special day. No, I don't mean by eating turkey! I'm talking about the pigskin! As VMK proudly announces Football! Yes indeed, starting Thursday we will be launching a brand new Football Guest Room along with 2 football uniforms and a couple other goodies! Want a preview? Take a peek:
Along with the football stuff we've even cooked up a new Quest, play and win and you could get a Football Randomizer! I suggest you brush up on those Disney Football classics... like Gus (you gotta love a movie that features Don Knotts (Barney Fife) and a field goal kicking Mule!), Air Bud: Golden Receiver (that dog is the Bo Jackson of canines!) and Remember The Titians (still a good movie, despite not having any football playing animals). And if you're hanging with Grandma for the holiday, don't worry, the football goodies will stay on sale until early February when that big bowl game takes place.
Interception! Touchdown! Pour Gatorade over the coaches head! Now waitaminute, I don't think that's an option…
Holiday Quests
As I've mentioned before we're bringing back Holiday Quests at both Disneyland Park and The Magic Kingdom at Walt Disney World. We're just putting the finishing touches on them now but I should have more information for you next week. And before you ask, the Quest prizes will be the same as last year since we're saving new holiday items for in-game shops and activities.
Thanks!
