Event News

Join us for a special event, designed with you in mind.

What:
Our first ever Pin Trading Round-Up

Everyone loves to trade pins! This weekend we invite you to design a room where Players can visit, and trade pins. 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, 2:00pm — 7:00pm Eastern
Saturday, noon to 4:00pm and 6:00pm — 10:00pm Eastern
Sunday, noon to 4:00pm and 6:00pm — 10:00pm Eastern

Rules:

• 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 or teleporters please.
• All players visiting a Pin Trading room, including the room owner,should be ready and willing to trade the pins they are wearing. If you have pins you will not 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, but cannot guarantee that all rooms will be visited and/or judged.
• There will be one winner for every hour of the competition. That means there are 19 chances to win!
• Winners will be announced in the next Newsletter.

Special Items

Special items in VMK shops:
This weekend only, check out the Specials in Shrunken Ned's Shop and the Star Trader's Shop. Get yourself all "DUDED up", ya hear?

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 they are wearing the pin and you see them in a Pin Trading room you may 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.
