Hi,
Just logged on and got the pop up that they are posting the event.
I guess that explains why the pin went away..
We are postponing the VMK Maze Event planned for September 9-12, but we'll be holding a Pin Trading Round-Up in its place. Here's what you need to know:
Set up your Guest Room for Pin Trading and invite others to join you!
The best pin trading rooms have a sense of fun and excitement, but are also well-organized. Show us your version of a rootin' tootin' pin trading room and you could win big!
When:
Friday, 3:00pm - 7:00pm and 8:00pm 10:00pm Eastern
Saturday, noon to 4:00pm and 6:00pm - 10:00pm Eastern
Sunday, noon to 4:00pm and 6:00pm - 10:00pm Eastern
Monday, 3:00pm - 7:00pm and 8:00pm 10:00pm Eastern
When:
Room name must contain the room owner's name followed by "Pin Trading" (example: VMK_Babs Pin Trading).
Rooms should be designed to make trading easy; no games, rides or teleporters please.
All players visiting a Pin Trading room, including the room's owner should be ready and willing to trade the pins they are wearing. If you have pins you don't want to trade, don't wear them.
Judging:
The room must be on the Popular Guest Rooms list to be eligible.
The room owner must be present to be considered.
Members of the VMK Staff will be visiting eligible Guest Rooms between the hours posted above.
There will be one winner for every hour of the competition. That means there are 19 chances to win!
Like last time, we will also be awarding one Grand Prize Winner for each day of the Event.
Previous winners are eligible to enter and win again, but must use a new room design to be considered.
All winners will be announced in the next Newsletter.
Special items in VMK shops:
To celebrate the Grand Opening of Hong Kong Disneyland, several Hong Kong items are in the shops. We also have some new costumes, for this weekend only. Be sure to check back on Monday for some One-Day Only Items!
Trade with VMK staff members:
Just like in a Disney park, VMK Staff members will be trading pins during the event. Any Staff member who is wearing a Goofy hat and is in a Pin Trading Guest Room will trade pins with you. If you see a VMK Staff member wearing a pin in a Pin Trading room, you can ask them to trade with you. If you see a VMK Staff member outside a trading room and/or not wearing a Goofy hat, please don't ask them to trade.
Some notes about trading etiquette:
Please ask a Player first if they would like to trade, and wait for a reply before sending a trade request.
When you're done trading, leave the room so someone else can get in.
