Woot here it is:
More holiday happenings! Including info on the Give-A-Gift and Holiday Quest events!
Home For The Holidays!
Well after a week plus of being on the road, I'm very happy to report the 'Yavn World Tour' is finally over and I'm back at home! It was a full week of Disney Park goodness - last week I was at Walt Disney World and on Saturday and Sunday I was at Disneyland! Very few people get to see both parks in the same week, but it always amazes me how each park is special in its own unique way. My pal Jake will tell you all about the trip and all of the cool stuff we saw (including our Winter Summerland Mini Golf rematch not to worry I putted my way to another victory ).
Before getting into this week's news, thanks for your patience during the 'Build Your Space Mountain' Ride Competition. We took a bit longer to finish the room judging and awarding the prizes but in the end finally awarded the winners part of reason results were delayed was because we had so many great rides to check out (it was really difficult to pick the winners), the bigger reason was that most of the team was traveling and we didn't quite get everything sorted out before we took off. And yes, I got your comments about not letting you know what the prizes were up front, sorry. In the future we will let you know what cool stuff you can win when we launch the event. All in all though, I hope everyone had fun and again, I'm sorry for the delays.
Give and Receive!
You asked for it, so it's back for an encore this year. As promised last week here is the skinny on this year's GiveAGift!
Give A Gift!
Do you have a friend in VMK who deserves a special gift? Maybe you're worried you won't be able to find them in the game to give them the gift, or maybe you want to give it secretly. Well, we have a special item set aside for just such an occasion. Just let us know who that special someone is and just like Santa, we'll deliver the goods. Here's how it works:
Beginning Friday December 15, click the 'Contact Us' link and select the Give-A-Gift option.
Tell us the name of the VMK friend you want to give a gift to. Be sure you give us their VMK character name and this is important - spell it correctly! Sorry but we can't deliver gifts to invalid names.
You can give a gift to as many Friends as you like, but YOU MUST USE SEPARATE ENTRIES FOR EACH PERSON.
500 credits will be deducted from your VMK credits for each gift you give. If you don't have enough credits, your gift won't be delivered.
Gifts are delivered anonymously - your friend won't know you gave it to them unless you tell them.
The final date to Give-A-Gift is Sunday, December 21, 2006 and all gifts will be delivered Tuesday, December 26, 2006.
You won't know what this year's gift is until the 26th of December!
Holiday Quest
Just a quick reminder that the Holiday Quest is live on both coasts! Visit either Disneyland or the Magic Kingdom at Walt Disney World and complete the Quest before January 2nd to get those Holiday cards!
The Decorative Holiday Snowman is one of three collectable Holiday cards you can get by completing the Holiday Quest.
Can't make it to the either park before the holidays are over? Then why not play the in-game Santa Clause Quest? The Quest is based on all three Santa Clause movies, just get out those DVD's, watch and you could score a Cooke Tree!
The Cookie Tree.
Holiday Goodies Galore!
Looking for more Holiday goodies to deck your virtual halls? Warm up next to the Towntoon Fireplace or satisfy your sweet tooth with the Yellow Candy Cane, both are now on sale in the Emporium - but you knew that already, right?
So who's up for a peek at next week? Check this out:
Take a seat on Santa's Chair (reindeer not included)
Celebrate New Year Come On!
Made any plans on ringing in the New Year? If not, join us here! VMK will be staying open an additional 3 hours so we can ring in the New Year with our friends on the West Coast at Disneyland! Yep, you heard that correct VMK will operate from 7AM PST - 1AM PST on December 31st! We're planning to ring in the New Year with special events and prizes so be sure to stop by. (A little birdie told me about a cool new hat, but that's all I can say for now...)
Aside from all that we're busily putting the finishing touches on the updates that are coming in January - I'm sure you're excited to see them, we've got lots of cool stuff, including A NEW LAND... OK, gotta get back to work, lots of cool stuff to get finished up. Keep checking the Newsletter for more details!
See you in the game,

Donald Duck Hat, anyone?
But still cool. Party like it's 1999 or 2007 or something - but Rock in the New Year VMK style sounds great! And new hat? Woot!
