2/12 VMK Central at Disneyland gets a makeover, plus how to get a VMK room makeover! New reward cards are announced and we've moved our office - all in this edition of Yavn Speaks!
We've Moved!
After a week in the new place, we've unpacked most of our boxes and are finally settling into our new office location. While there are a few things that need to be worked out, the new building is very nice (and location still top secret) - so if you didn't see any of the team in the game over the last few days it's because of all this moving craziness.
Central Changes & Rewards Reworked
VMK HQ is not the only thing that changed last week, VMK Central at Disneyland also got a facelift! As you can see from the pic below, the kiosk now has the same look and style as VMK.com! If you've visited the VMK Central at Disneyland in the last week you've not only noticed the new color scheme, but that we're also showing off 4 new cards there!
If you visited VMK Central in Tomorrowland at Disneyland last week, you may have noticed something new a new look and new reward cards!
In addition to everything else that's getting an overhaul, we're introducing a new reward system in both Parks. Starting soon we'll offer a new prize for completing multiple Park Quests (at both Disneyland and the Magic Kingdom) like one of our new Limited Edition Mickey Furniture Reward Cards! These are extremely limited cards that will only be available seasonally. How's that work? Well, we'll launch the Limited Edition set with the Winter Mickey Mouse Window - this card will be available until Spring, when it will be replaced with a new seasonal reward card and remember Limited Edition means just that once the season is gone, the Limited Edition card that goes with it will be gone for good too.
In all, there are 4 Mickey Furniture cards and each one is themed for a specific season. The Limited Edition set also features a special 'foil' and of course each one has a code that can be redeemed for the virtual item on the card.
The picture here doesn't do these cards justice but trust me, they look awesome.
And we've got more cool changes and new reward cards on the way too, plus for our Disneyland Guest, don't forget we're still running the Fast Pass program. Stay tuned, I'll have more info on these Limited Edition cards very soon!
Room Makeovers - VMK Style
Also this week we're bringing back an old VMK favorite, VMK Room Makeovers! Would you like to have one of our VMK Experts help you turn you room into a hot spot? Just send us a note and tell us about a room (your's or someone else's) that's worthy of a makeover. Our secret room makeover agents will also be making the rounds secretly looking for rooms that need a makeover. Either way, each week we'll pick some rooms for a makeover and show you the results in an upcoming newsletter.

Lost Your Character? More About Deleted Accounts
As I mentioned a while back, we have started deleting inactive accounts, in particular accounts that have been inactive for 6 months or more. You may have noticed this yourself if you logged on and found your account was gone. If you did, we're sorry, but we did warn players.
A few of you have requested your deleted account and player name back sorry, once the accounts are deleted from the system they can not be brought back. We even reset the deleted player name. I bring this up again so you remember if you plan to be away from VMK for a while, you should still check in every now and then so you don't loose your character.
Hey Waiter!
Just a heads up, Haley & Jake aren't the only ones who know the 'Secret Word' to get service from the Gator Waiter in the Blue Bayou - check around, there are plenty of other 'characters' in the game that know how to get the Gator Waiter's attention!
Service with a smile in the Blue Bayou - a big toothy, gator smile that is.
That's a Wrap!
Well I hope you enjoyed the first week of February Fun Days, don't forget get extra credit by playing Haunted Mansion on Tuesday and Castle Fireworks remix on Thursday! You never know when a little extra bling may come in handy. Also I should mention the first VMK Race day is coming up this weekend, February 18th. So grab your driving helmet and race on over (it's a bad pun I know, but at least I didn't tell you to get in gear for VMK Race Day on second thought, just scratch both of those puns).
What else? The new office is pretty cool, I'll try to get you some pics of it in upcoming Yavn Speaks blogs, I think Darth Vader designed the lights! Ok time to go, we gotta wrap up the Epcot Quest word on the street is it may be ready to kick off next week Stay tuned!
See you in VMK!

They're coming out with more and more harder to get items and my poor wish list just seems to keep growing instead of getting smaller.
