The Top Three Meet Dis-nee (CMO Contest, Part Three)

[FirstTimeCaller]

This is a challenge for all 3 CMO Finalists

Mention my screen name during any interview and receive 100 votes from me.

David blew a perfect opportunity to get the 100 votes when asked for fantasyland attractions in Disneyland but not Magic Kingdom. He should have answered "Big Thunder Mountain". Sure it's wrong on all accounts, but 100 votes is 100 votes.

 

[Marshay]

Just perfect Marshay -- the whole project!!! And you have a beautiful family!!

Has your daughter seen the pages or is all a surprise?

She saw it once when I only did up to Letter F, since I mistakingly left it out. She was VERY excited to see the book. I won't show her the whole thing until we get on the plane.

Last year I did a Disney touch and feel activity book for the plane ride and she still asks to see it.

It makes me happy to see her love for Disney at such a young age!

yeah, I was expecting someone to talk about the ride and then come back here and say -- where's my 100 votes!

 

[tothesea]

Marshay!!! Your ABC book turned out fantastic! What a great memory that will be for years to come, not only for you, but for her too! You really really did good on it! Impressive!

And love the Skinny Minnie day too! Looks like you guys had a lot of fun!

Actually - and I should have reported this sooner - even though BTM requested that I tell the guys, there was no opportunity to tell them ALL at the same time. I mainly was hanging with Justin, and it would have been unfair to talk to him about this, without making sure that both Tripp and David heard about the pledge.

So I left it to fate - if anyone mentioned the ride, then they'd be getting the bonus. OR if they logged in and read the post themselves, while they were so busy, they also deserved the bonus.

But you had a good point, anyway!

 

[tothesea]

For everyone on this last day before the next step happens - Thanks for the
togetherness, laughter, creativity and everything else that has made this trip so incredibly fun and special.

Now, back to voting!!

Circusgirl, I've been meaning to tell you how great it always is when you come by and brighten the place up! Thank you!

 

[tothesea]

Thats just how it is Tothesea. Although everyone is nice in this reality show and no-one gets voted off

It has and will continue to be a fun and entertaining ride! A ride that I think I would like to ride.

Yay for you! (Yep HMF, for you too!)

So Miss Stitch, will the DIS party bus be stopping in England now??? I've always wanted to go there!

 

[catotigger]

Marshay - super job! So much creativity - how exciting is that?

Your daughter is going to flip when she sees the book.

 

[catotigger]

Yay for you! (Yep HMF, for you too!)

So Miss Stitch, will the DIS party bus be stopping in England now??? I've always wanted to go there!

Yeah, Miss Stitch - come and play! Leeds is beautiful, and I'm pretty sure 3g&g is a licensed pilot, too!

What is the DIS party bus? Don't tell me I missed it!!!

I already missed the NostraDISmous shenanagans...!!!

 

[tothesea]

Mickey has arrived in Oklahoma all the way from his home in Walt Disney World!!!

He brought brochures to show us and has been answering a zillion questions about what his home is like!

He will definitely be sharing his adventures while visiting, but he's a little busy at the moment!

Wondering what his little mouse self would be doing online?

Voting of course!!!
He insisted...and no, I didn't pressure him, I told him to make sure and vote for whoever he wanted, and for 1 candidate, 2, or even all 3! He's pretty fast, as he doesn't need an extra mouse!


And Cat--he said to tell you hi, and that he had the best time touring the World with you and CMO Tigger, and that he misses you!

 

[tothesea]

What is the DIS party bus? Don't tell me I missed it!!!

I already missed the NostraDISmous shenanagans...!!!

Oh, no Cal, you're just in time! Wouldn't be the same without you! Just let DISgeeks know that we need to stop and pick you up too! It's our tour to pick everyone up...I'll try to find the post where DISgeeks explains it!


EDIT: DIS's announcement starts on page 135...post # 2024.

​

(Deadline: Friday, April 18)

(If you’re already on the map, but don’t care to participate, no worries! We’ll just wave as we pass through your city! )

In a few days, we’ll post an updated map with our route charted and an “itinerary” of people’s pick-ups. (Really, it’s just the order of our stops along the way…)

When the Party Bus reaches your “pick-up” spot, post a “must-see” tourist spot, a quirky destination or a hidden gem near your hometown. That way, our DISnee family can do a little sightseeing en route!

And, of course, we’ll also share our silly observations along the way – like this funny road sign or a pit-stop at South of the Border to fuel up on gas and gawk at that hideously huge sombrero.

This will be a leisurely journey with a tag-team approach. (Once the person who precedes you in the itinerary posts his/her tourist pit-stop, then it’s time for your pick-up. Feel free to post when you’re ready, and – if you’re going to be out of pocket – forward the details in a PM to me, Cat or MadBrad, and someone would be happy to post for you!

We’ll just take our time, and enjoy the ride!

The Party Bus is currently scheduled to depart on Tuesday, April 22 (sometime after the CMO contest has wrapped and our winner has been announced).

WHAT A GREAT IDEA!!!! DisGeeks...Did I get the last seat in the bus???? I could stand, but it looks like such a long journey....Maybe I could catch a flight to Texas and hang out with Cat until the bus arrives there????
Love it .... Love it!!!!

EDIT: Thanks!!! ToTheSizzle!!! I'd like to sit by you on the bus.

Just dropping in for a moment to catch up.
Brad, WebmasterDoc is a moderator on the DVC Rent/Trade boards and is very active in the DVC forums.
It probably threw up a red flag when you ressurected some old threads and he felt you were just "advertising" the CMO contest.
I dont think anyone else has had this problem, although, now that you were "caught" it may have some ramifications.

I find it a little silly that you cannot link to a Disney web page also.

Brad and I were chatting last night (on the balcony overlooking the pool)...........he mentioned the pm he got from Doc admin moderator guy.

I was certain that it was just because Brad posted on an out-of-date thread and he just stuck out like a sore thumb....because many others here have links and frequent different threads.

But JUST IN CASE..........I didn't want to lose my opportunity to be here. So the pic is there but the link gone. But the voting continues....see you in the booth next to mine? Looks like the voting booths will be taken care of today and tonight.

Hopefully you will find someone to cover for you.......and my business will have to wait one more day.......

Don't worry 3g&g, Ann still hasn't let me out of the corner yet. It looks like I'll be here for a while too. Maybe Ann will let out so I can go on the "Virtual Road Trip". I'll take my punishment accordingly though. I'm sorry if I ruined it for you too Mrs. Fleagle.

We couldn't ignore you! But, you have to be here in the evenings! MadBrad needs people to talk to - and since I'm going to try to catch up on sleep - I won't be able to stay up late anymore!

Tag - your it!

Thanks Cat for sticking up for me. If I hadn't been left all alone these last couple of nights I wouldn't have wandered off and been doing things I shouldn't have been doing.

Thats just how it is Tothesea. Although everyone is nice in this reality show and no-one gets voted off

It has and will continue to be a fun and entertaining ride! A ride that I think I would like to ride.

Hey everyone! Should we add Miss Stitch to the Dis-nee Family Map? If we do, it looks 3g&g needs to get the plane fueled and ready. We could use the boat but that might take too long.

OK, you all heard me talking about this for about a month now...It's finally done (unless I go back and redo some pages or add some more...)

I won't post every page (<insert cheers from MadBrad here>). If you wish to see the entire ABC book, please go to post #309 of my May trip report.

Here is the cover and back page.

Thanks for the compliments. As I said on my TR, I had all these visions, that every single page would be beautiful, unique and a work of art!

Then the reality of doing a 42 page album in less than 1 month hit me!! Some pages were done "faster" than others. Of course, I only showed you all the ones I really liked!

Marshay, I'll take back everything I ever said about scrapbooking. I think I found THE most beautiful and unique page. Thanks for including me in your wonderful and amazing project.

... Now back to serving out the rest of my sentence. Ann, can I at least come out long enough tonight to do some voting and maybe get a snack. I have been here since about 10:00 pm last night.

Cool Cal!!! If I get picked up first, I'll save you a seat!

That book is amazing...!!!!

I'm afraid to show these pictures to my family...they will pull out the boxes containing all of our momentos from trips past and demand a scrapbook!

Well done, Marshay!

 

[CalDisneyFamily]

Yea!!! I will bring the "travel Trouble" game! ..

I say that it's time for you to come on out of the corner - Ann won't mind!

We don't want you fainting away...or worse yet, not voting!

Ann - I'm giving grumpy - errrr - MadBrad permission to come back out!
