Maybe we could even add another room that's linked to the Dis hang out room, or maybe a second lobby that will connect w/the hang out room (for more teleporters).
Great minds think alike :) In my original way-too-long to read detailed post (http://www.disboards.com/showpost.php?p=8877108&postcount=726) describing the setup, I did mention:
- if we need more common rooms in the future, we could use the other non-coffin teleporters to link to additional common rooms
- if we need more lobby space for more personal teleporters, we could create more lobby rooms, and then link together the lobby rooms. Perhaps each lobby room could link to a different common room.
My thought was to use the Lobby room(s) as "hubs" that linked to "Hangout Rooms" and personal rooms. My personal preference would be to NOT have hangout rooms have more teleporters, because these "chains" of rooms will be harder to navigate; of course, the owner of the room can do whatever they want.
I'd like to fill up the current lobby with personal coffins first (that really sounds disturbing); this should minimize people hanging out in the lobby to chat, because there will be no room to sit or gather. Also, a more concentrated hub will be more efficient. When the lobby is filled, we'll choose a specific teleporter type (boat perhaps) that will link to another lobby room.
If the primary hangout room ends up filling up too often, we'll add another teacup that will link to hangout room number two, probably from lobby room two.
How's that sound?

I think I was there too when that one character wouldn't move, and then later I tried again but the ropes were up so I couldn't get into the room to go into the teleporters.
I didn't have anyone on my friends list that was on at the time to go into their room to teleport to the lobby, so I was out of luck!
Once I get enough credits I can teleport through my own room...but im about 225 short right now, I should get them tonight when I play some games and click on the characters (Yenti, Ned etc..)
I will make sure to add you to my friends list ASAP when I see you again. The same goes for trstno1. I was trying to invite you to be my friend, but you left the room before I got the chance! :)

I signed up here on Walt's birthday, 2003. I lurked before that even. I've been known to lurk now and again. :teeth:
Oh, and I'm "Peeplmoovr" on VMK. Same name, minus an extra "e" after the "l" and before the "m" not next to another vowel but centrally located within the wording of said name on said game. :teeth:

I'm using a Mac, got the popup, and it was boring. Something about revamping the codes entry and maybe needing to try more than once. Not exciting.

Funny that is exactly what my pop up said! :rotfl2:
no really here is what it says....
"We are making enhancements to the code redemption system. Players wishing to enter a code may experience difficulty from time to time. But never fear! We are working hard to complete the enhancements. Look for updates to the code system soon. We'll post new information in this space so check back often. Thank you for your patience while we fine tune VMK!"

You can change the room name by clicking the little "i" button in the bottom left corner of your screen while you are in your room.
And I misread the "give you my other half" at first to mean you were offering your spouse! That's what I used to say to refer to my dw. :)
I'll be on tonight, but after I do the dishes. I think multiple nights in a row of Dis'ing and VMK'ing without doing my share of chores is about to make MY "other half" a little... grouchy.

I am Willow in VMK (brown hair, blue top & pink skirt) so please look out for me and say hi if you see me in the game!
JeanJoe - I talked to you a couple of days ago in the teleporter room for the Dis - I don't know if you remember we talked about the time difference and me being from over the ocean. I hope you didn't think I was being a pain - I realise now that you are trying to get people to not hang around in that room and talk but get on into the other rooms. I was just pleased to get the chance to talk to someone from the Dis!
I am having fun in the game - and I would welcome the chance to chat to some Disers there. I think I have only really talked to a couple of other adults in the game - so I hope to meet a few more of you guys.

Of course I remember! (I think I even said something about think we had met at some point before, and I remember trying to type "across the pond", but it wouldn't let me say "pond".) I'm sorry if I came across a little snippety; the lag was so bad that I would type and watch the characters come out 1 character per second, it was awful, so I was trying to be brief!
It's funny what you say about trying to find adults. Besides finding other DIS'ers, another place where "geezers" seem to hang out during the day is in Central Plaza on Main Street. Astryd, aka ValerieK(?) on the Dis, is frequently holding a bench down there, and there are often more old folks there. That's where I usually go to watch the VMK go by.

Regarding your fireworks question, can't help you. I have yet to break 200k.
Regarding the Lobby and teleporters, that refers to a little project that I've been organizing, linking together people's personal rooms via a teleporter network, with another linked "hangout room" that DoomCookie has kindly donated. For details, see this thread (http://www.disboards.com/showpost.php?p=8877108&postcount=726) where I post the details of implementing it; skip to the bottom for instructions on how to get linked into the network.
It's working out nicely, with about 15 rooms linked so far. The first lobby will probably fill soon, so if I can scrape together the credits, I'll start a second lobby that will be linked to the first lobby.

Are you able to get on VMK right now. For some reason I keep getting a message that I have lost connection. I'm at work and no one is here :cool1: so I want to play. I was able to play yesterday. Don't know if it is because it is before 10 AM EST or what.

It's in Frontierland, one of the lands not currently fully open yet. But you can get to the store, I think, in 2 ways:
1) walk through the Frontierland entrance off Main Street
2) get off the monorail at the Frontierland stop
After being to the store and double-clicking on the cash register, in the future you'll be able to shop there without actually going there. On the other hand, people have said that the inventory occasionally changes, and you have to actually go there again to check.
Good luck (and I'm *not* a VMK guru; I just spend too much time here and there)
Incidentally, I can't get in yet this AM.

The first time I got over 200,000 I was also #1 so I got a big credit and a poster for it.
Then the second time (last night) I was in second place and got a pin (level 3) and free room and about 250 in credits.
So I really don't know how it works...the funny thing is I have Level 1 and Level 3 pins, no Level 2...does anyone have the Level 2 pin? How could I have missed getting it?

This is a little tricky - you need to get 200,00 points and still lose to someone else. Then you get the Maleficent's Evil Fortress Room and the fourth pin available from the fireworks game.

The Level 2 pin is a little tricky to get. You need to make it to the fourth level in the game, then lose. I like the Level 2 pin a lot, and it's cool that a lot of people don't have it.

I can't score 240K on my computer. The game runs too slow and the curser sticks for some reason when I move it from side to side too fast. I also cannot change my icons as fast as I used to before they had the 10 Player minimum addition

Thanks to the one and only pumpkinfish (aka MissBelle on VMK), we now have a second lobby to put personal teleporters in! Her lobby is linked to the original lobby via another set of tea cups.
So, if you'd like to install a teleporter link from your own room to the Dis teleporter network, just buy a coffin teleporter from the Golden Horseshoe Mercantile, install one of them in your own room, and trade the other one to either MissBelle or Bezoar!
Have fun, and see you at the VMK.

Hi! Either MissBelle (pumpkinfish) or Bezoar (JeanJoe) can help you out now. Stop by Central Plaza and ask "the regulars" there whether they've seen me. They include Astryd (Dis = ValerieK), Churro, and hagen, and I'm on their friend's list so they can tell you if I'm around.
A bunch of other Dis'ers also have me on their friends list, so they can spy on me too.

On your thread about VMK on the reward froum, you have a link that is suppose to let you play on a full screen. But I have yet to make it happen for me. If their some trick to be able to play VMK on a full screen. Right now I still trying to play on a regular window. I know I am missing stuff when I play Jungle Cruise. Any help would be great.

Hi there,
Maybe I can help you...
Go to your desktop and right click, then go to Properties and then to settings.
From there go to your screen resolution and change it to 1024 X 768 Pixels, click apply and you should be good to go, I have to do this everytime I go into the VMK.
I've been busy playing I am missing all the fun teleport stuff. Also I am walking around in lime green skin being called an alien!! So just look for the lime green dancing alien named Java and the beast. :banana:

Kind of cool: VMK seems to be developing communities for different Disney boards. I was walking around yesterday (got a little restless from the "usual" haunts :) and visited another teleporter network.
Turns out, it's a bunch of people at the Intercot boards. They were a nice bunch of people hanging out in their Intercot room (Enter caught, in VMK). They've also started up a teleporter network (e.g., see their map (http://www.intercot.com/boards/ultimatebb.php?/topic/9/7720.html))
Soon there will be little fiefdoms for different communities :)
Maleficent's castle seems so dreary, so maybe I'll try my hand at redecorating a bit.

Hi guys! I didn't play much for about a week; I was out of town. But now I'm back into it, kind of. I still can't play Pirates! I've never been able to play it. It just won't let me in the game. I've reported it, but it hasn't been fixed yet. So I can't do that yet. I think I might have to buy a new mouse for Fireworks, too. (This is really so sad, isn't it! :rolleyes: ) And for the last two days, my Jungle Cruise has been going really slowly before it gets to me for me to board, so I lose a lot of time before the game even starts. Is that happening to anyway else?
So I'm not really playing a lot, it gets frustrating after a while. But I go around and look for DISers, try the games, and get my credits from the characters. I'm looking forward to the party on Saturday! I have a party to go to that day. Luckily it's earlier! :teeth:
I have a screen shot of my character to add to my sig. I'll work on that.

Hi sage, got your message -- sorry I wasn't able to get online tonight until just before closing. If you see "Bezoar" or "MissBelle", we can place the coffin for you.
A frequent place to find Bezoar is in Central Plaza, but I'm afraid there's a good chance I won't be able to get on until the afternoon or evening. (Hope I don't miss the parade.)
The *rumor* is a total of 8 magic pins:
- invisibility (available via pirates)
- fireworks (semi-available, people still confirming method, thought to be Fireworks score >240k, but still losing to someone else who scored higher)
- dance inferno
- teleportation
- pirate costume
- 3 unknown

Could it be?!?
I just went to their front page, and the countdown ticker says they'll be open in 10 minutes, which is 7am Eastern time, which I think is 3 hours early.
Are they expanding their hours, every day, or just for weekends, or just for parade day? Or is it a countdown bug...?
Edited to add: Oh well, it was a countdown bug. Now counting UP from negative 1 hour.

Then I took the 3rd teacup in the far right corner and it took me to dis lobby 2.

LOL! Sorry, I tried to put directions in the room description.
The setup is:
Central Lobby is the HUB, and in that room there are:
- 3 tea cups, which each go to a Lobby filled with personal coffin teleporters
- 1 Jungle Cruise Boat teleporter which goes to the Dis clubhouse. This is the one you were looking for
Each Lobby contains:
- 1 tea cup that brings you back to the Central Lobby (HUB)
- a bunch of personal room coffin teleporters
Tried to keep it simple, but apparently I failed, lol.
"Escape" is a nice personal room of a VMK "Guest" Dis member who gave me a boat instead of a coffin, and so it was banished to a mostly empty lobby, just until I get a coffin. Otherwise, it would get confused with the tea cups and single Boat teleporter to the Dis clubhouse.
Hope that helps.

Can you believe it finds the word tree as a naughty word...LOL :confused3 :rotfl2:
It wasn't at the beginning. But:
won -> deleted (can use 'win', but end up sounding like English is my second language half the time)
too / to -> deleted, then reinstated after outcry
tree -> deleted (I now use 'plant')
for -> never taken away
hive -> not yet taken away
sick -> deleted (I now use 'ill')
I'd recommend not trying to use rhymes / homonyms for numbers, because losing the words can be too painful (it was AWFUL without to and too). When people ask if there are "I or too" mickeys in a room, I reply
"There is a mickey" or "There are mickeys".

What a waste of time. The only parade was everyone stood in a line and follow the leader. Our leader got tired of waiting and left. I can't believe I waited for that.
Exactly. what a waste of my time I bought extra film with credits I was saving for Madam Leota's crystal ball! that really gripes me!

Yea, I got there an hour before everything was suppose to start. Got on Central Plaza, just chatting right along with everyone else. Then not 10 minutes before it was suppose to start, my screen went WHITE and I was no loger connected to the game.
Then it took me almost 10 minutes to get signed back in...keeped getting the "Your connection has been lost." Then all the sections were FULL! I had to wait almost 10 minutes before I was able to get back on to Central Plaza, and no one was there from first time I was in the area, before I first got booted.
There was just a long line of people and NONE of them were really very helpful. The one in front just keep saying "Everyone get in line!" And everyone else was "WHY!!"
Then the little blue box popped up and told us to go look for some one. But I had no idea if I could leave the Central Plaza area or not. And when I tried to go to Main Street, it said it was too full anyway. So I decided to go to Adventureland, and the little blue boxes keep popping up telling us to look for some one else. But my computer was going so slow, I was just to scared to try anything, thinking that I would be kicked off again.
So I didn't find any one. Did any one here find anyone??
Did every one get kicked off at one point or another or was it just a few of us?
After it was offically over, I thought I would go and play the fireworks game. But it wouldn't let me play. I would wait for the clock to time out, then I would get the black screen then the next thing I know I am in the Fireworks lobby again. Tried this twice! SO, I have just given up for the night. I got my extra points for finding all the charcters, and a made some new music, and played a few tunes. Will just have to try again tomorrow or later tonight. I think it's because their is just so many people on tonight. I saw once whene I was trying to sign in their were over 1,000 people sign on!

I agree the dictionary sucks and we should be able to type numers and months and the word months for crying out loud.
What is that limit all about anyway??
You also can't type hard, you must type difficult. I mentioned a game was hard and it flashed red at me.

This is so you can't give out personal information. The game is geared toward younger kids. It is to keep them safe. And even with that I have still heard from young people that would make you :faint: if they were said to your kid.
And cobbler, shouldn't we be scrappin instead of being on vmk? I know I am not getting anything done. :badpc:

There are many "instances" of each room. When you go into a room, it will put you in an "instance" of that room. It may or may not be the one with your friends.
My connection was not lost, but I got kicked out of the "instance" that I was in and could not get in any where on mainstreet.
It will be interesting to see what happens after this event.

Only read the last page of this - hope I'm not repeating.....
PinkTink won an Explorers Tent Room - I went to see it, it was cool!
There was a VMK member there asking questions and taking notes. Most people were polite, one wasn't and PinkTink booted him. VMK_Mocha was very nice and wanted to know all the problems we had. She was writing them down and was very patient with all the new people coming into the room and repeating the questions.
On the other hand, I was disappointed in the beginning. I suspect they had a different plan but people were too confused and they gave up on the parade idea. We stood around and chatted like at the real parks. lol People were saying they were thirsty, I offered gum and "passed it down". My room never really got ugly.
I have a big problem with the pirates game. Once the game is over, I must leave the instance ASAP or get booted. And I can't play level two alone or O get booted. :badpc:

That's so great! When I left tonight, she was concerned that she wasn't going to get the prize room, because no one on staff had contacted her yet.
And what a cool prize! I've seen that room before (one of the developers let people peek at it).
I'm so glad it all worked out.

Thank you eveyone for the well wishes. I just happened to be in the right place at the right time. I acutally would have loved to have one of my kids win the room but I knew by the time I could have gotten them there someone else would have found her.
Also, I wanted to say a huge thank you for all the house warming gifts I received last night. The new room looks awesome because of all my virtural freinds. The generoisity of everyone really brought a tear to my eye last night. Thank you again!

Ohhhh, Bezoar now really has a reason to be green... Love that room, and the music in it.
Terry_S and SuperGurl: if either of you would be willing to provide a teleporter path to these cool rooms, I'd love to have them linked into the Dis teleporter network. If not, no offense taken -- I can see not wanting to have people wandering through all the time.

how about numbering the coffins from left to right starting on the back wall and then posting a chart which number is who's.
did that make sense?

I'm planning to do better than that :)
For this board anyway, I hope to soon post screenshots, with all the owners labelled.
In VMK, however, there's no current great way. BUT... if the haunted mansion room becomes publically available, I believe you can post pictures pretty high on the back wall, so maybe I can take pictures of the owners, label the pictures, and put them on the back wall.

OK, here you have it: the Unofficial Illustrated Guide to the Dis Teleporter Network, v0.01, not likey to be updated for a while, at the risk of my losing my job.
The tour:
http://www.jeanjoe.com/images/teleporter/CentralLobby.jpg
This is the Dis Central Lobby. It links via tea cups to 3 different teleporter lobbies (which in turn link to people's personal rooms). Note the Boat teleporter in the lower right corner: that links to our Dis Club House common room.
If you follow the left tea cup, you will get to:
http://www.jeanjoe.com/images/teleporter/MaleficentLobby.jpg
The Central Lobby's left tea cup links to the above "Maleficent" Lobby. The "Maleficent" Lobby contains the return tea cup link back to the Central Lobby, and also a slew of coffin teleporters which link back to people's personal rooms.
- left wall:
- mickeysfriend (Berherenow)
- mickeysmagic (LoriR)
- DoomCookie (Taryn)
- JustmeTigger (StaceyA)
- Tinkgirl (HollyJoy)
- Peeplmoovr (?)
- Astryd (ValerieK)
- carribbeanbel (Cyndirella)
- Bezoar (JeanJoe)
- right wall:
- IHavGreenEyes (?)
- ChiaBob (?)
- canadian (blizzard)
- Maltoo (Maleficent2)
- MissBelle (Pumpkinfish)
- wdwlover (Marypops!)
- hagen (?)
- left 2nd row:
- Lillykat (lillykat)
- TinkerSnow (Diana Lyn)
- kareneast (kareneast, coffin reversed)
- sage (cobbler)
- Disvaclub (disvaclub92)
- Vellamint (Vellamint)
http://www.jeanjoe.com/images/teleporter/LobbyII.jpg
The Central Lobby's right tea cup links to the above "Dis Lobby II" (which may need to be renamed if the VMK staff feel strongly against using numbers). The "Dis Lobby II" contains the return tea cup link back to the Central Lobby, and also a teleporters which link back to people's personal rooms.
Currently, the coffins lead to:
- left wall:
- SouthernBelle (Sk8Leigh)
- (boat) not working; target teleporter not placed?
- disalex (WebmasterAlex)
- Dznygrl (caribear)
- right wall:
- lifeof (thegales)
- Guest60731, awaiting Taximom approval (taximomfor4)
- PurDizFan (ekmdisney)
The Central Lobby's middle tea cup is for future expansion, to the "Yeti" teleporter lobby, if we need another personal coffin room. Or, we could use it to link to a second common room.
It currently contains a teleporter for:
- Guest60694 (currently boat, need to switch to coffin)
=====
The Central Lobby's boat teleporter links to the below "Dis Club House" common room, a nice place to kick back and chat. The common room contains a boat teleporter to get back to the Central Lobby.

Speaking of the over 240,000 points, I got 243,000 this afternoon! I was excited to be in the top ten for today...I received 100 credits, the fantasyland pin and fantasyland poster.
Honestly I was hoping for the magic pin but I guess they give that out at a higher level!?!?

You probably placed 1st? People are saying you need to score >240k points, but still manage to lose to someone else in order to get the fireworks pin. Certainly seems like you'll have it soon (unlike me, high score ~180k)! Good luck!
Edited to add: scoring over 200k and placing first gets you the the gold fireworks pin (non-magical)

One time I won and was over 200,000 and got a poster and a pin, but I can't remember which ones....sometimes I wonder if there is a rhyme or reason to what they give and when.

You can in the Firework Magic pin for a score over 240,000 but you must not place first in the game...how impossible is that???
BEZOAR, THANK YOU FOR ALL THE WORK ON THE DIS LOBBY INDEX!!!!!!!

Rock on Joe! Looks great!!! If you think it would be easier, I can rename the Dis Lobby I I to become Ned's or Esmerelda (sp?) to keep in tune with your themes;)
If you'd like to, that would be great. Two reasons why it might be good:
- once they fix the photo on wall bug, it'd be nice to post pictures over tea cups to say where they were going. I thought pictures of the non-player characters (Maleficient, Blackheart, Yeti, Ned, Esmerelda) would be cute, kind of like the real-park parking lots
- if VMK is going to crack down on using numbers, I didn't want our rooms to be "numbered" and bait for getting warned
But, these are silly reasons, so go ahead and name your room whatever you like. :)
BTW, the "Maleficent" Lobby is now as full as I think it should get. I'm going to either start loading teleporters into the middle "Yeti" lobby, or I'd be happy to trade to you a half dozen or so coffins to spread them out a bit. That might clear up some room for a nice rug or water cooler in the lobbies ;)
Apologies to anyone who is tired of having their coffin teleporters moved around.

Ok so I went ahead yesterday and renamed Dis Lobby I I to become Shrunken Ned's Dis Lobby. I will gladly take some coffins off your hands ;) I will be in and out today running errands but I will look out for you!
See you around the neighborhood!

OK, I think the entire second row of coffins (the ones not against the walls) in "Maleficent" should go to "Shrunken Ned's". That will affect:
- left 2nd row:
- Lillykat (lillykat)
- TinkerSnow (Diana Lyn)
- kareneast (kareneast, coffin reversed in target room)
- sage (cobbler)
- Disvaclub (disvaclub92)
- Vellamint (Vellamint)
- snuggie (debbiedoo)
Since the coffin teleporter placement requests have tapered off a bit, I'll eventually put down a few furnishings in the "Maleficent" Lobby to make it more homey. (As homey as room full of coffins can look!)

also you can get a quick glampse of mickey in the gold horseshoe he walks past the curtain (behind the curtain) alot
and the castle has a garage (not true but the little building next to it in the castle gardens sure makes it look like a garage)

For pumkinfish and anyone else around tonight, there will be a group from vmkfansite playing fireworks from 8pm-10pm PDT. They will have people there who can score over 240K so that others can try for their pins. As far as I know, everyone is welcome - just come and join in the games. Anyone who scores over 240K but doesn't finish first will get the magic pin (ie: you don't have to finish second, but could finish 3rd or lower)
Come on out.

YES! My answer is here! This is perfect! I almost did it today but I beat StarryNight at the last second (argh!!) so she got her second fireworks pin. Sheesh, why do I have to be so good?!? LOL.
Thank you again for this head's up :) :wizard: :wizard:

Ok, after playing MANY games of Fireworks today, I decided to really make the most of my vacation! LOL
I have earned a lot of credits coming up with these pointers! Now these are just observations and not really "rules of play". I cannot tell you they will always work due to gitches in computer, speed of play, ect.
1). As we know there are 8 total symbols by the end of the 5th round.
2). In rounds 1-3, you always begin with the gold/yellow sun (2nd symbol from left).
3). In rounds 4 and 5 you begin with the purple pretzel (3rd symbol from the left).
4). I have noticed that if you only have one firework on your screen, wait until another appears to click on the original firework, and then only do it after a few seconds.
5). Wait until the firework is begining to flicker rapidly to click on it. If you time it just right (yes, i also listen to the music, LOL) you will get a "flawless" score.
6). As we know, there is a bug in the system that you only get the firework magic pin if you score above 240,000 points but still lose to somebody! :sad2:
7). This one was said before, but you need to click on every firework, even if it means getting a "good" score. Ex: Two fireworks appear on screen away from each other. Instead of timing it and only clicking on one firework to get a "flawless" score, go ahead and click on both to get "good" scores. I can usually time it and get a "good" on one and an "excellant" on the other ;)
Below I have typed out what my last scoring was at the end of each round. I also use this guide as I am playing to make sure I am staying focused and on track. I am hoping it will help you all out too!
Level 1 FANTASYLAND:
Round 1~12,177
Round 2~26,448
Round 3~42,544
Level 2 ADVENTURELAND:
Round 1~55,184
Round 2~67,778
Round 3~85,130
Level 3 TOMORROWLAND:
Round 1~97,243
Round 2~112,828
Round 3~130,634
Level 4 FRONTIERLAND:
Round 1~148,356
Round 2~165,707
Round 3~185,793
Level 5 FRONT OF PARK:
Round 1~203,643
Round 2~220,468
Round 3~239,716
The times I get above 240,000 I am generally ahead of each of these rounds by at least 800 points. When I come up with more tips I will post, or anyone else is free to give us their pointers as well :)
