VMK communicator? In what way are they communicating? It's simply another way to download screen shots which we can get anyway.

Well.. as for the Host "events" well... I looked what was happenings and all I see is some judging.. a room competition, judging, and some more judging for a ride competition.

I agree with StitchMad.

It's like Disney; extending the Year of A Million Dreams because they can't find anything better to attract people.

Come on. It's kind of pathetic.

The VMK Communicator doesn't communicate, though. Kim got to talk to Wayne with hers. And StitchMad, you can't download screenshots with the Communicator, can you?

Yeah I mean really. And it says on the YoaMD website that the celebration only started in 2007, but it actually started in like September 2006 (well, officialy in October, but anyway...).

Also another little rant, that's completely unrelated but i thought people would want to talk about it while we're on the topic of Disney being not at its best, I couldn't believe when Chris Sanders was fired and American Dog was dropped. I loved the cat with the eye patch. The replacement, Bolt, looks stupid.

Anyway, let's hope that better things start happenings for the Walt Disney Company soon.

I happen to think they extended the year of a million dreams because of the wonderful response they got from the people who got dreams and fun things as they came off rides. Personally I think extending that was a great idea. I know once it is gone people will wish it would come back. And I agree about the communicator it is not as useful as the main page.

No, not really. I know I won't. It overflows the parks, which are supposed to be magical places, with creepy, scummy people who just came to try and get something free.

Because a million people out of the billion(s) of people around the world who come to disney is a lot.

That is pretty much what makes me annoyed.

There's nothing else to put there. Though it probably would have been just as effective to put a blank picture there. :rolleyes:

The description for the judging is something along the lines of.
"Enjoy the wonderful rooms our players have made while we judge."
I'm sorry, but you could have judged a room while typing that, AND a gingerbread house, is a gingerbread house. There isn't any change in these rooms is there? At the space event, we had giant eyes, meteor showers, recreations of space mountain, but here.. well.. we have gingerbread houses.. gingerbread houses and even more, gingerbread houses.

I need to get out more, I've only seen GPDOT's which isn't a modern gingerbread house, which I feel should be a clear winner anyway.

Actually, I've seen quite a few extremely clever gingerbread rooms. They're not all just four walls and a roof.

Though I agree with you that GPDOT deserves to win just about every design competition in VMK. He was certainly robbed in the Space Race event.

I agree, one of the rooms that won was just a nicely done room with track placed through it.

I've seen quite a few designs which aren't "houses" mine included....just visit some rooms when they are open.
