Okay now I really feel stupid...

[vellamint]

what is going on with the 50 Hidden Mickey quest thing....the one when you are done you receive a voucher for a bracelet and gold stuff at the parks?

I am going next week and sat down to do this but I cant get into the Star Traders shop anymore!!??

Give a girl a break please and someone explain to me that I do not have to go through all those other quest thingys just to get into the Star Traders shop to get my last 2 mickeys!!!

Say it isnt so ....

 

[VirtuallyMe]

unfortunately you will have to go through the dive quest (captain's quarters) and the space quest to get to star traders- at least for now...

the good news is there are lots of people here who will be happy to help you out the best they can- and there is a guide in the stickies...

 

[vellamint]

Thanks for your quick reply...I think this really stinks....I dont have the time to do all of this stuff.

Serves me right for waiting on the Mickeys....hey!? Do you know if you even get the voucher to print out for the prizes anymore? Or is that done with and the Mickeys are just tied into the quest thing now?

Thanks....(says things under her breath not meant to be heard by small children)

I would be happy to help. Just let me know how many you need and I will get started.

Yes, this was pointed out recently as sort of an oversite on their part - not like they care. There are two things to add to this though. One,(and not to make you feel worse) the prize this time was pretty cool it was the gold set. So a lot better then the bracelet. Two if you did all of them but that one you could attempt to contact them about their oversite. When my dd6 and dw did theirs it did not register one of the pictures and I contacted them about dd and the gave the pin and the credit to her. however that still leaves the pdf - she did not get that. I would try to have friends help get the basic magic to get in. If it is only for one person it takes a few hours on your own, with help should be quick.

Thanks Mickeysfriend but I am not sure what you are offering to help with....
how can you help me get the pdf for the stuff at the parks....are you offering to help me get through that part of the quests? I am thinking that takes ALOT of time, mine and yours

Adventure...are you saying that if I get all 48 other mickeys and email them they will give me? what? I really just want (for now anyway) the pdf for the gold items and I was also under the impression (wrong I guess) that I would still get the bracelet

I GUESS I REALLY WANTED TO GET THE BRACELET boo who.....(and the gold - lol)

This seems so complicated now for simple things.....this is not fair and especially not fair to kids! (of which I am NOT)

Hi Mint,

Are you talking about the lime green rubber VMK bracelets? I have two still in the wrapper if you'd like them. Just send me a PM and let me know.

 

[Beherenow]

I do not mind getting the PDF for you, if you can not get it yourself. I already have one that I did not use on our last trip. As for the new quests, you are on your own with those, LOL.

I have a simpler way of getting into Star Trader's without doing the quests. Make a friend who finished the quests to go there and just follow them!

Will this work? Have you tried it?

Tishke I will pm you.

Mickeysfriend I would "glove" the pdf if you are not planning on using it...


I think this is my last trip to Disneyland and want to make the most out of it!!

I know - I am such a baby!!

 

[Califgirl]

Mint, you will get a bracelet if you turn in any of the quests. Each person who turns in a quest (any quest it doesn't even have to be all of them) will get that green rubber bracelet. I think I still have one in the package, let me know if you want it.

I thought, that with the new Mickey Quest that there was no longer a pdf. They give you clothes and credits along the way. That's why I haven't done it. If the gold collection still stands, will someone let me know?

Best of luck to you Vellamint.
Please post if you have time for a Dis meet during your stay. I'd love to drive up to Disneyland to say "hi"

Yavn took care of this, it was a bug and no longer works, at least did not. I doubt he changed it back.

This is how it was before, everyone participating got the bracelet.

I know It did give the gold set when I did it, that was like January though and only got it successfully one time. Everyone else got the but. No telling with tomorrow land out.

Okay, first off, the quests to get into the Innerspace Shop (previously Star Traders) are relatively simple. I did both of them in less than a day. Have you tried them, yet? Really - they are not that difficult.

Secondly, when you keep stating that you want the bracelet, are you refering to the lime green glow in the dark plastic cheapy thing with a code on it that does not work? If so, can I promise you that it is SO nothing to get worked up about. Honest. I gave my first one away to a kid at the park. I only felt regret for this when someone told me it had a code on the back - which, as I shared - turns out didn't work anyway.

Hope these two points help.

...the bracelet, are you refering to the lime green glow in the dark plastic cheapy thing with a code on it that does not work? ...

Oh the code works just fine, once per character! It just so happens that it is one of the persistent codes that is posted on every VMK fan site and thus is usually already used before the bracelet is received.

 

[vellamint]

Okay - did not know that you received a bracelet for just handing in a quest...thanks!!

As for the quests necessary to get into Star Traders being easy....I dont have a day between now and when I leave to invest in them....sorry but just dont.....

"Secondly, when you keep stating that you want the bracelet, are you refering to the lime green glow in the dark plastic cheapy thing with a code on it that does not work? If so, can I promise you that it is SO nothing to get worked up about."

I resent this remark...I dont think I am being unreasonable in stating that I would like the "cheapy thing with a code on it that does not work"....I happen to have two kids who LOVE this game and would be overjoyed to wear those "cheapy things"..and I myself have a small collection of Disney related items that mean something to me of which this would be added. The fact that it is a dark, plastic cheapy things does not fit into this equation.

Tishke....thanks for offering but save them for someone who wont be able to get one......

Same with you Califgirl....and I wish we could meet while we are there but I am going with a non-VMK friend (lol) and she wants to spend time in Los Angelos also and I have no idea what days etc we will actually be in Disney...

I guess I need to do a solo trip so I can meet my DIS friends lol......anyone up to starting a petition so my DH does not look at me like I have 5 heads when I mention this.......I AM KIDDING! (not)

Posted in sticky list of codes at the top of the DIS VMK forum.

[cutegrl505]

that is stupid that you have to go through all these quests just to go to a stupid store but unfortunetly you have to. its the only way and if you can't then i don't know wat to tell you.

 

[Disney Dreams]

I am sorry about that. It is the way the game is now set up. There really isn't anything anyone can do to help - although many of us would.

Okay, umm... I did not mean it as a bad thing. I was trying to make you feel better about it. I am sorry that my comment upset you so. I truly was just trying to explain to you what the bracelet was. I honestly did not think I said anything that would upset you and I apologize publicly that it did.

My comment was meant to explain to you that it was not a really special item. Again, sorry I upset you. I was just trying to help. (which clearly went bad somewhere....). I have two of them that were going to the neighbor child. They are yours if you want them.

Okay, sorry I misinterpreted the way in which you replied....thank you very much for your offer but I will decline as I have read I will recieve one with the return of any quest. I guess when my family does this summer the kids will each get one with the return of those quests.

Thanks everyone.
