View Full Version : My Hero: The Yeti
MisterToad 08-29-2005, 06:04 PM As many of you are undoubtedly aware, I have long considered The Yeti to be my personal hero. I believe that he is one of those misunderstood geniuses. As a way to honor my hero and demonstrate my undying devotion to him, I began a pursuit to collect 100 Yeti pins. It was a long, difficult search. As you know, the Yeti pin is one of the rarest and most highly sought after pins in VMK. Most people I met would not trade a Yeti pin for anything less than 2 Inferno pins. After many weeks of intense trading, I finally reached my goal of 100 Yeti pins! Here they are in all their splendor:

UPDATE: As of January 8, I have 1740 Yeti pins!

Yeah, why should I stop at 100? I have decided that I will continue to collect Yeti pins indefinitely. Please feel free to give me some if you see me in VMK. :)
Barbie 08-29-2005, 08:25 PM i will give one!
shiregirl 08-29-2005, 08:56 PM Yeah, why should I stop at 100? I have decided that I will continue to collect Yeti pins indefinitely. Please feel free to give me some if you see me in VMK. :)Lol, Oh goodie. I have about 5 more to unload ..uh.. ..er.. ahem, I mean to grudgingly part with in the name of friendship (and some infernos in trade, I hope. :Tongue: )
There once was a big silly head
He had pirates and dragons and Ned
Then one day in some snow
He found a hairy new bro
And then longed for some Yetis instead

Very well said! Merrily!
Joviqueza 08-29-2005, 09:03 PM Haha, good job. I'm sure Yeti's parents would be proud that their little darling has such a dedicated fan.
MissAmber 08-29-2005, 09:06 PM Maybe if you send something in about this to the VMK News Letter, you could make it :) I doubt it though. But it would be cool!
Adventurebry 08-29-2005, 09:18 PM i currently have 57 yeti pins good job :)
MrGenie 08-29-2005, 09:23 PM Bravo, MisterToad, bravo. I'd just like to take a moment to pause and thank all of the mules who generously contributed to this project. ;)
I'm curious how many non-Yeti pins you still have (not counting your five magic pins in the screenshots). Presumably you traded these away to facilitate your screenshots, but who knows...maybe you really don't have anything besides Yetis at this point!
MisterToad 08-29-2005, 11:03 PM I'd just like to take a moment to pause and thank all of the mules who generously contributed to this project. ;)Ah yes, what would life be like without mules?I'm curious how many non-Yeti pins you still have (not counting your five magic pins in the screenshots).I currently have 176 pins, including Yeti. I wonder what the limit is; perhaps I will find out. :)
RoyalHighness 08-29-2005, 11:10 PM I have another, maybe a few <giggles>...I am willing to trade it/them to you for GREEN flip flops <smirk>.

Wow, MisterToad! I'm really proud of you! I bet you worked pretty hard for that 100, and yet to continue! I wish you the best of luck... I would give you some of my Yeti's, but I only have one sadly :bawling: :10_1_23: :@@: :sadd2: :ouch: ... but I truley wish you the best of luck, MisterToad!!! :goofy:
Captain Brain 08-30-2005, 12:34 AM go toadie go!i will try to do ned!
princezz 08-30-2005, 01:26 AM I am willing to part with my beloved yeti for this great couse.
partyatvmk 08-30-2005, 02:15 AM That is a lot of Yeti pins.I have some if you want to trade.
Norbie 08-30-2005, 03:59 PM What a wonderful collection of smiling Yeti faces! :D I am so happy to have been able to donate to your Preserve The Yeti foundation. :rolleyes: Woot Woot ! Yeti season has not yet closed for the year, so I will continue to hunt Yeti for your game preserve. (to be captured alive, of course :luxhello: )
Annientink 08-30-2005, 05:53 PM WOW! I thought I was the only yeti collector :) I started a while ago and I only have twenty so far.. high demand for free pins, people want FURNITURE for a YETI pin!! Arg!! Good luck :)
EDIT: I have close to fifty now!! lol Thanks everybody for the help

Manchester United 09-02-2005, 10:19 AM :jumping-s :jumping-s YETI! :jumping-s :jumping-s
DaBEEF 09-03-2005, 06:25 AM hey toad. i have already given you about 10 but i have about two more for you! :donald:
Colin aka DaBEEF
Nikana 09-03-2005, 07:18 AM And here I thought the Yeti pin wasn't worth anything except the first time you visit the characters, you automatically get it.
Somehow, I got 2 Esmerelda pins since I started back in June and left everything in my pin archive. Well, I'm glad to be one who never really trades anything!
Good luck with your pin collection!
Ellington 09-04-2005, 06:04 PM I have about Ten of them if you want, drop me a PM so we can set up a time to trade.
Harlan 09-04-2005, 06:30 PM poeple he is lieng look at the post they are all the same i think he just got 25 pins and then did a copy and paste what a LIER !
darthmatt 09-04-2005, 06:39 PM Toad, you know I had to to trade my Inferno, my Teleportation, and my Super Rare Shunken Ned Pin to get you one Yeti! I see now that it was well worth it :p
That's verry cool, sir Toad. Try for 500 Hundred! :p
really?! i would of gave 50 yeti's for inferno
Angel Fancy 09-04-2005, 06:40 PM I am also a big fan of Yeti. I meet with him every morning for a dance. I have a Yeti pin I would gladly trade for an inferno pin. How about it? :wave2:
Juneau 09-04-2005, 06:42 PM poeple he is lieng look at the post they are all the same i think he just got 25 pins and then did a copy and paste what a LIER !
If you look at the image, he's had to scroll down to fit them all in, and since each row is worth six, he'd only have one pin in the last row on the last image to make it 25 pins for your idea to work.
He therefore has 24, 48, 72, 96 and then had to scroll down a bit more to fit in the last 4 making it 100 in those images!
Congrats anyhow, even if there are unbelievers amongst the crowd.
MisterToad 09-04-2005, 06:45 PM really?! i would of gave 50 yeti's for infernoI don't have Inferno, but even if I did, I don't like Yeti quite *that* much. :)
shiregirl 09-04-2005, 06:47 PM poeple he is lieng look at the post they are all the same i think he just got 25 pins and then did a copy and paste what a LIER !Um. Where to begin. First of all, Toadie is not a "lier". Secondly, of course they are all the same. He is collecting Yeti pins. All the Yeti pins are the same. Unless you somehow have a collection of Yeti pins showing the silly hairy thing sporting a dinner jacket or in Bermuda shorts, think a little about what you post in accusation before you do it. Third, the pictures are different. If you look at the scroll bar on the right side of each picture, you will notice it is progressing steadily downward. Fourth, why lie about something like this? It's not like he's collecting inferno pins and bragging he has 134 of them. MisterToad is an excellent person, and he would not bother wasting his time lying about something so petty.
darthmatt 09-04-2005, 06:48 PM I don't have Inferno, but even if I did, I don't like Yeti quite *that* much. :)
but did they really want like 2 inferno's!?
MisterToad 09-04-2005, 06:51 PM but did they really want like 2 inferno's!?No, I was just trying to be funny. :)
Captain Brain 09-04-2005, 07:13 PM Oh yes that is a large collection,good work I will try to get some for you
shiregirl 09-04-2005, 07:30 PM Arg! I hate it when I'm wrong, but I have to be the first one to admit it.
I just saw this pin in VMK moments ago.
http://img52.**************/img52/833/fancyyeti0gj.png (http://**************)
It appears there really are different Yeti pins out there. Wow, this really shook up my VMK universe! Who knows what other pins may be lurking out there waiting to be discovered...
Captain Brain 09-04-2005, 07:32 PM OMG shire your photoshop skills amaze me!!
ChrisR 09-04-2005, 07:34 PM LOL LOL thatis some good editing shire!! LOL LOL
maybe the toad here should create a rom to give me yeti pins and we all meet him there hows the idea
Alinator 09-06-2005, 08:28 PM UPDATE: As of September 4, I am now up to 206 Yeti pins!
So finally it all makes sense... the recent server problems are all caused by Toadie!! VMK can't handle that many pins!!! :D
It will be interesting to see how far you can go without causing problems.
Greenway 09-06-2005, 08:45 PM So what happens when you combine that many pins?
witchesrock 09-07-2005, 09:18 PM i didn't know yeti pins were rare ..
i have four esmerelda pins i don't know HOW i got them ..
Mickey_Dude 09-07-2005, 09:33 PM I well give you a yeti pin please post offer.
shiregirl 09-23-2005, 02:57 AM 388 Yeti pins!
:O
When they take these away and the pins become uber rare, you are going to be RICH sir! I am in utter awe of your accomplishment.
Captain Brain 09-24-2005, 12:21 AM I was inspired by MisterToad's yeti collection.So onec a boy called Captain decided to get some pins.He just started and now he has 50 Captain Blackheart pins!!Thank you MisterToad for inspiring me!!!
MisterToad 10-05-2005, 06:15 AM When I decided not to stop at 100 Yeti pins, I didn't really have a specific goal in mind. Tonight I reached a significant milestone, however: 500 Yeti pins! In honor of this historic occasion, I have created a video of me scrolling through all 500 pins. You are welcome to watch the video here: http://media.************/500-Yeti-Pins/640
I would once again like to thank all of you who donated Yeti pins to this cause. This would not have been possible without you. Thanks!
I plan to continue to collect Yeti pins, so keep 'em coming. Look for the next video when I reach 1000. :)
drkfaery 10-05-2005, 06:19 AM Wow! Words fail me Toadie! :)
Appleson 10-05-2005, 06:20 AM i watched your video and you've definately made a true believer in me! hooray for yeti pins! :)

BnyKty 10-05-2005, 10:47 AM I believe him! I can see him scroll the scrollbar! I already believed him at the start too :). And I have many Yeti Pins! Going to trade them if you need them!
Annientink 10-05-2005, 11:17 AM Wow up to 500 yeti pins? 0_o That's a whole lot of saving up!
