01/03/07 SPECIAL EDITION– Announcing the Monorail Music Mixer and a new Land!
Plus VMK game highlights from 2006 - and we remix a VMK favorite, the Castle Fireworks game!

Yavn Speaks Special Edition!

Has everyone recovered from the holidays? Did your team win the big bowl game? I know, we usually update you on Monday, but I thought I'd take a second and give you a mini-update to help get you back in the swing of school/work/life/VMK. To get the ball rolling we have an all new New Year's Quest! Don't worry - you don't need to catch any ghosts, sink any ships, or put on a fireworks show - the new Quest is a question-filled quiz all about VMK's last 12 months.

20 correct answers and you're the proud owner of this brand new 2007 Pin!

What? Not enough for you? Then how about the first ever screen of the new Monorail Music Mixer? Main Street is no longer the only place to create the ultimate music jam, now you can hop the Monorail and create a cool mix with all new sounds. The Monorail will still take you around the Kingdom, but why not dance while you ride? The Music Mixer works the same way as the one on Main Street but the sounds are completely different, also note that you can't mix your mixes together (say that 10 times fast), since the mixers are totally separate.

Bust a move with the Monorail Music Mixer!

This Land is your Land
You've probably heard about the new Land coming to VMK by now and like you, I'm excited about the new addition. But before the Welcome Wagon gets here, let me set up this ribbon cutting - the new Land, while very cool and a welcome addition, will be our smallest Land yet.
Now hold on a sec (I hear a collective sigh over the internet), let me explain - before I do, remember in VMK, everything is not always what is seems (for instance, just because the map looks small does not mean the Land is small). In fact, our new Ticketing System was in part designed for a specific location that won't even be on the new land map. ;-) We create locations exclusively for the purpose of enhancing the existing game - as I've said before, we don't want to add rooms just for the sake of adding rooms. So once you've gotten in there and played around, it will make more sense. (Even the new Land's NPC does something totally new - just say the magic "code" word and you might see some magic...)

Who is this guy - and why is he in my column?

Finally, as we head into 2007, we feel we've made some pretty significant enhancements to the game - VMK Pass, Tickets, Fireworks Remix, Monorail Music Mixer and the new Land - we hope you agree and like all the cool updates we're doing. But hey! That's just the in-game stuff! I can't wait to show you our next Park Quest as well as roll out the revised Park Reward Plan! Until then, enjoy the holiday decorations, they won't be around much longer... And a quick question for you before I go - anybody up for an Epcot Guest Room?

*END UPDATE*

Woot new land!!

Thanks for the info Ned!

~MagicMonkeys

(you probably know me somewhere in VMK;)

(not sure but i think i've seen you somewhere........)
Hi CL_timmyastro:)

What exactly is the new land..? like is it toon town or whatever?
i can't get on vmk (ban)

*Ultrakiki*

An Epcot Guest Room??!?!?!??!?!?! Woot!

Wow a minuet late in posting this

Why can't they say, "Here's the new land, have fun!" and give it to us! :)
More waiting. :D

Yeah a new in-park quest! Probably an EPCOT quest... ;)

Hmmmmmm...Mickey's ToonTown? That Ticketing System preview DID have a ToonTown-related name in the building title...

Whoa


thanks ned!

:D

Haha exciting update =D

Isn't EPCOT celebrating 15 years this year?

And that gator looks like it's from Fantasia or something, but I also see chairs there too..

I hope its a toontown quest.. and its at both parks.. rawr WDW is favored too much.

The little picture looks like a messed up Mickey, who just came back from an abstract art fair..

-X

well, with the way the room seems (some computer-like character and special chairs), i'd say we may in fact see a park such as Epcot. It's tough, because the best choices are Epcot (especially since he's hinting an Epcot Guest Room), or Mickey's ToonTown. Well, since yavn has now released a little bit of information about this new land, i say between now and this time next Wednesday it will probably be open. All i know is, this ticketing system is going to be like the single-use keys, only we can use it for admission into some room for the new land. Also, not only is the monorail already more high-tech than the ones in the real parks, but now it's turned into Pleasure Island!

Stop the presses!

I look at it again, and it looks like a Alligator in a Blue Parade Soldier Uniform..

Behind him looks like two cafe-esqué chairs. (probably accompanied by a table)

-X

you didnt see that it was a gator i told you o.o

Why must this stuff be dangled over our heads like this? Ah, it's just cruel. :D

~Oranges

yeah, i figured out it was an alligator when i read schmoofy's post near the top of this page.

Figment better be in the new Epcot guest room >_<

If he is I will flip! :D

It's 25th Anniversary is this year.

Its finally revealed, the new land is either Epcot or Mickey's Toontown Fair.

Epcot Guest Room, that guy is the new NPC.

I wouldn't say Epcot because that's a theme park.

The chairs look like they're from a café.

Look at the bottom of the Monorail picture! What's that purple thing?

Maybe another Monorail room!

That's where you go to enter the mixer, to edit your mixes like the doorway outside the stage in Street Music.

I think it is where you make the song. Like the Music Mix Game has a little door you enter. That picture looks like it has a door you go into to make the song.

All of Epcot gets only one guest room? Shouldn't there be one for each country in the World Showcase, as well as several for the Future World attractions?

What if instead of Space Mountain guest room, a Tiki Tiki Tiki guest room, and all the others, we only had one "Magic Kingdom" guest room? That wouldn't make much sense, and neither does having only one guest room for all of Epcot.

Hmm for some reason I think our new land will be EPCOT World Showcase

Well this is Virtual Magic Kingdom

And people would go to their country room saying "I live here".

-X

Well this is Virtual Magic Kingdom
Yes, and that explains the football and baseball fields perfectly.

I'm still trying to place that gator to somewhere at a Magic Kingdom. The only place I'm thinking of is Roger Rabbit's Cartoon Spin, or Fantasia Gardens (mini-golf)

An Epcot Guest Room??!?!?!??!?!?! Woot!
Where does it say Epcot?

Roger Rabbit's Cartoon Spin would be in Mickey's Toontown Fair, no?

-X

I am going to once again bring back my topic about this... Disneyland is referred to as Magic Kingdom a lot, "Walt Disney's Magic Kingdom" as said on the DLRR.

Also Yavn did mention that the new Land would be the smallest yet, and Towntown is the smallest Land in Disneyland.

At least this land, however small it may be, will come with a new NPC. That right there makes it better than Tomorrowland already. It will probably have a minigame which pays better than the one-credit-per-trophy driving game, too. Man, does Tomorrowland stink, or what?

Yup, exactly. More evidence, even though it may not be TT.

Also, it's Fill the Rails '07! Come tell the monorails goodbye in style ;)

Well this is Virtual Magic Kingdom


Well apparently that's not a Factor with this anymore

don't forget, we're probably getting a new shop too.

New land, possible game, possible shop, NPC, guest rooms, and surprises...


all coming out at once, this will be fun.

edit: haha, they just made the "since 2005" poster not too long ago, and now they're changing the entire monorail system (except for destinations/traveling).

Ok...this may sound a little crazy but, I may think I know what it is. Yavn said that the new land will be small, and the cafe chairs immediately made me think of this restaurant we got a hotdog at in the Magic Kingdom. I think it is Liberty Square. The restaurant I ate at was in Liberty Square I think and the tables and chairs looked just like that. I may be thinking of two different places, but I think it is the same place. Liberty Square is one land that would fit perfectly, since it is small and should have had a place when VMK opened with everything else. Just my crazy thought.

Shop for sure. Every land has a shop, and I can get a direct quote about that.

That's not so crazy. We have no direct proof it's toontown. What if they just named their guest room Toon Town Square for a picture of the VMK pass? I think I'm going to side with you instead.

It seems everything new is kinda epcot-ish so i think the new land is epcot!

We have Pirates of the Caribbean, The Haunted Mansion, and Fireworks (shows) already, though. Hmm.

i hope not. As good as places like Liberty Square are, they are too small and not too much fun for vmk (they're more of look-at rooms than fun rooms).

Shop for sure. Every land has a shop, and I can get a direct quote about that.
Of course, we'll probably need tickets to get into the shop. I haven't yet decided whether that's worse than needing Inner Space magic to get to the shop in Tomorrowland.

Yavn said that the new land will be small, and the cafe chairs immediately made me think of this restaurant we got a hotdog at in the Magic Kingdom. I think it is Liberty Square.It's also a gator, would go with the theming at New Orleans Square pretty well. But, the mansion and pirates are both in game already. Do you think VMK would add Liberty Square or New Orleans Square? I don't know.

i hope not. As good as places like Liberty Square are, they are too small and not too much fun for vmk (they're more of look-at rooms than fun rooms).
Well, too small... :)
But, I smell new items and games...

who IS that guy? and what's he doing in my twin's column

Well, I'm sure VMK would do something fun with it. They said they will not make rooms (usually) just for the fun of it. Does anyone know the name of that restaurant? It was like baseball themed, and it sold hot dogs? Oh I remember now, it was by the castle. No, that was somewhere else. Ok now I am confusing myself.

Of course, we'll probably need tickets to get into the shop. I haven't yet decided whether that's worse than needing Inner Space magic to get to the shop in Tomorrowland.
10 credit tickets or space magic? I choose tickets

Anyway, I have a good feeling we might get Epcot. Epcot Turnsile... :XD
Do we could charge them tickets, and then make them pay 100 credits. I smell scamming.

i have no idea i'm starting to think there may not be any games in this land with them spending the time updating fireworks i hope there is though you can never have too many games to play.

sunny - i believe you are thinking of casey's corner.

Well, too small... :)
But, I smell new items and games...

reading it again, he said stuff is not always what it seems. His example was a land map may seem small but it's not. Basically, with that said (and the ticketing system mentioned for a specific location), he is most likely saying the majority of this new land is hidden rooms some how.

In my opinion, I would rather have a new game than have a re-vamped old game.

Come on, remember. I think you can...
Baseball themed? Doubt it. Would've came out Thanksgiving if it was baseball.

Does anyone have any guesses to when this might all be out?

Maybe by the NPC's magic? I dunno. Oh, and I don't like this 60 second post limit. xD

Ok we still have the pamphlets...whatever happened to them?

Yes! Casey's!

The new magic! Maybe the magic will get us into the secret rooms? I bet it is single-use, and we get it once a day. Maybe treasure magic single-use? I am just throwing out ideas.

what pamphlet? if your trying to find the eating place i believe you are thinkin of casey's corner

The maps. Yes, it is Casey's.

When will it be out? Early January?

Kind of funny how they never tell us directly. They want us to do detective work. lol

I'll throw back treasure single use and say magic carpet, full use. Magic Carpet ride onto a rainbow, where the colorful shop is

But then what fun would that be? Everyone would have it, it would not be as fun as earning it yourself from a quest or something. Maybe it would be random, and some people would get full use, but you could do it every day?

Well, someone has to guess it eventually. Everyone, keep throwing out ideas!

Just don't hit yavn whose watching, and probably thinking 'just love putting them in suspense!' LOL. Yavn, I actually have no idea what you're thinking.

It kind of got quiet...I wonder how many people are laughing at us (me) right now. lol

Well, I clicked on about half the people who are viewing, and I have not seen one person who is replying, all viewing. And laughing.

Well, since Yavn is watching, can I ask when these changes will be made? Will they be made next week or something?

It kind of got quiet...I wonder how many people are laughing at us (me) right now. lol
About 44, 36 members and 7 guests and 1 VMK creator.

Well, since Yavn is watching, can I ask when these changes will be made? Will they be made next week or something?

He's probably watching for a good laugh, seeing us come to conclusions about this new screen. I don't even think this gator is the new NPC, it never says anything about him being it.

The maps. Yes, it is Casey's.

When will it be out? Early January?

Kind of funny how they never tell us directly. They want us to do detective work. lol


Yeah but Casey's is on Main Street so it can't be the place in VMK for the new land. Those chairs are the problem because they only fit in café type restuarants none of which Toontown has. Liberty Square has only a few things in it: In WDW it has The Hall of Presidents, Liberty Square Riverboat, and The Haunted Mansion. In Disneyland New Orleans Square has The Haunted Mansion and Pirates of the Caribbean. They both are the perfect place, along with Main Street, to have those café chairs.

Neither is an option. I'm thinking Critter Country. It has the gator and would have those chairs.

About 44, 36 members and 7 guests and 1 VMK creator.

I don't know what worries me more. All those people, or Yavn. Oh yay, now it is 40 members! lol

Hmm, yea, Critter Country sounds a little better. But Liberty Square could be fun too, with the right things.

He looks more like a cog to me than a gator

Hehehe...


They don't give us a definite time of arrival because if they run into problems, players will freak out demanding to see the new land. They just throw it at us, like they did the previous lands, so players don't have deadlines and expectations.

What?

'Magic Word' I don't understand o_o

What?

'Magic Word' I don't understand o_o
Like you say ' Magic ' or whatever and he does somethin'

Yea, I guess we have to figure it out. That will be fun seeing players try every word in the dictionary.

Yes just enjoying (most) of the posts and seeing if my hints were enough to keep you excited.

Don't worry you won't have to wait to much longer...


Yavn

I'm thinking lands left out in Magic Kingdom are somehow going to be mixed together through rooms on the map and through hidden rooms, maybe epcot will also be included.

lol, it's always fun to see Yavn post on days he talks about new things.

Yes just enjoying (most) of the posts and seeing if my hints were enough to keep you excited.

Hints? Multiple hint? I guess that gator wasn't the only thing we should be looking at, hmm..

Yavn
Can you at least tell us if that's a gator or not? LOL

EPCOT!!!!WOOT! i've been waiting for this! it would be so cool with we got Test Track ride pieces

lol, the monorail is a clue? After all, isn't it going to be taking us to this new land?

yay!!!!! go Yavn and staff!!!! thank you for the new land and everything new :) I can't wait to play the new fireworks game :) thank you again :)

Now hold on a sec (I hear a collective sigh over the internet), let me explain - before I do, remember in VMK, everything is not always what is seems (for instance, just because the map looks small does not mean the Land is small).

A new page perhaps? After all the map now isn't small....

lol, the monorail is a clue? After all, isn't it going to be taking us to this new land?
If only the pic of the monorail said the new land! LOL

that's why im thinking the ticketing system is somehow going to take us to rooms not on the map. That makes the land seem small, but really, it's not.

Ticketing would seem like a good clue to what the land is. Apperantally the toontown idea went into Push.

Well i scanned through the last few posts.. and when thinking it could be critter country with the gator, the "multiple hints" part made me think of when yavn said, "But before the Welcome Wagon gets here..." Well it could have just been a choice of words, but when i heard the word "Wagon" i thought of the countryside/old fashioned.

Now, a little birdie told me...

Plays on words is all.

Three words...


Come on EPCOT!

Nemo

i have figured out 7 hints (at least, i think so):


Hint #1: "will be our smallest Land yet."

this most likely means it is some land in Magic Kingdom such as Liberty Square.

Hint #2: "everything is not always what it seems (for instance, just because the map looks small does not mean the Land is small)."

This means there is most likely more to the land (hidden rooms such as pirate treasure room) that is not on the map, making us believe it could be a big land, a small land with many details, or a mix of a few lands.

Hint #3: "In fact, our new Ticketing System was in part designed for a specific location that won't even be on the new land map."

This statement supports my guess for what Hint #2 probably means.

Hint #4: ";-) We create locations exclusively for the purpose of enhancing the existing game-as I've said before, we don't want to add rooms just for the sake of adding rooms."

This most likely means they spent a lot of time putting a lot of things and details into this land, or multiple lands, to improve the game.

Hint #5: "(Even the new Land's NPC does something totally new - just say the magic "code" word and you might see some magic...)

Somehow this has to do with the gator, which is blue and dressed up like a marching person or a soldier. However, the gator may just have to do with a new column coming out in the future, since he's apparantly in yavn's column, and not just because it's a picture.

Hint #6: yavn constantly uses the word "land" as "Land," with a capitol "L." This could be used to name the land until the official name is released, or this could be a hint letting us know the new land somehow uses the word "Land."

Hint #7: The new in-park quest is planned to be at both parks, meaning it most likely has to do with the new land since this is all going on around the same time. That means the new land (or lands) must be at both Disneyland and Walt Disney World's Magic Kingdom.


well, that's about all i could figure out.

Wow how exciting!!! I look forward to all the new additions. Thanks for the quick post Ned. Just got home and saw it here first before making my way to the VMK homepage.

Ok here's what I can pass on at this time about Magic Carpet:

It will be sold - No price has been set yet
It will be out sometime next year
There is only 1 version of the spell

As soon as the details for relase date and price are set I will let everyone know.

Hope that helps,
Yavn


That is a direct quote, magic will be out THIS YEAR!!!
And it may have somethign to do with the new land
And, it will be buyble!
Buyable+new shop=magic carpet!

Yea, we already have Treasure Detector, Coral, Bat and Snowman Magic Single-Use.

So now I'm thinking it could be critter country.. I personally dont know anything about critter counrty at the real disney parks, so I just looked up Critter Country on the internet, and I think I connected with something yavn said in the newsletter... besides the gator and the play on words, and that critter country is very small.. he did say the Ticketing System had to do something with the new land, well when reading about critter country at Disneyland i found this on a random tour guide site:
"You can get a ticket to the attractions and entertainment areas which span through three themes at Critter Country – Davy Crockett Explorer Canoes where you can paddle your own canoe on a guided tour of the great rivers of America. With a ticket Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh takes you on a fancy tour of the 100-acre woods with Winnie the Pooh and friends, when you are at Critter Country."
"When you need to grab a bite at Critter Country with a ticket, we have Hungry Bear Restaurant..."
Notice that critter country involves tickets? Hmm..

Davy Crockett? Maybe Neoteny will finally get his costume! lol

now, i was talking to yavn yesterday.. i think.. and i asked him about if it will be on the startup map or not. and he said it would be. so the monorail may have a new station?

so, Critter Country may explain the tickets and the gator more.

Here is an enlarged picture of the "guy":

It is definitely an alligator in some sort of uniform. New Orleans Square? Blue Bayou? The tickets allow you to enter Club 33?

With all the discussion of the new land, people have missed the monorail music game. Look at this enlarged picture of the new monorail:

http://gallery.vmkforums.com/data/500/VMKNewMonorail.jpg

You can see the mixer entrance, the play entrance, and the play exit but what are the blue, orange, and red terminals?

...Davy Crockett Explorer Canoes where you can paddle your own canoe on a guided tour...

- turns on 'The Neoteny Signal' -

;D Hehe.. I kinda disagree with the rest of your post though, I really think it's Mickey's Toontown Fair still.
Though it's interesting to see that Critter County involves tickets, The Gator, and all our other evidence doesn't point to Critter County.

Davy Crockett? Maybe Neoteny will finally get his costume! lol

lol... anyways... i finally read through all 90 something posts and if the new in-park quest is tied in with the new land and is in both DLR and WDW it is not critter country becuase there is noo critter country in WDW.. but I am so excited to see whats new!! :woohoo:

And just seeing Yavn's name down there is kinda creepy (in a good way of course). Like Orwell said...Big Brother is always watching...:thf471fd564zf:

Here is an enlarged picture of the "guy":

interesting....they must have a use, they took away nemo (the fish in the tank)!

i wonder who the new npc are?

Yea, but Yavn was last active at...nevermind he is still active. Last time I checked he was last active 20 mintues ago.

They almost look like ticket dispensers. (hmmm)

now, i was talking to yavn yesterday.. i think.. and i asked him about if it will be on the startup map or not. and he said it would be. so the monorail may have a new station?

I guess I should just sit on the monorail from now on and hopefully one day I will land in a new land...

Also...
ABout those blue, red, and orange "dispenser" thing in the monorail picture....They were always there.. go take a look ;)

I don't know about those machines. I have a feeling they do nothing other than decorate the room. They are in the monorail now and have no purpose. Then again, we thought the DJ table had no use, either, but look what's happening now.. Hehe :Tongue: Why must you torment us like this, Yavn?! :D

ABout those blue, red, and orange "dispenser" thing in the monorail picture....They were always there.. go take a look ;)

Yeah, I just noticed that. Still, they may soon serve some function that they didn't before. After all, the treasure room was just another room when it first came out. The treasure chests didn't actually do anything for a while.

Ive given up on guessing because everytime i guess i change my mind.

hmm.. port orleans-french quarters anyone?

http://img110.**************/img110/7681/8h456fghfhiv5.png

why woulld they make a resort a whole land?

I doubt they would revolve a land around a hotel though....seems unlikely..

but it is VMK and you never know (and they did release Hotel Pins and they are releasing a new Hotel Pin tomorrow so,.....)

why woulld they make a resort a whole land?

don't ask me I'm not a vmk game designer. Maybe the NPC has to do with it?

lol...jsmall..great minds think alike.. we both posted the same thing at the same time

woo! thanks for the great info ned

They almost look like ticket dispensers. (hmmm)

no, they are just arcade machines.

Or the alligator may have nothing to do with the new land but is a hint for an upcoming month's theme such as...Mardi Gras. Port Orleans French Quarter has many Mardi Gras themes throughout the resort, including the alligator band near the pool.

Port Orleans=New Orleans Square? They both have Orleans in the title.

This was also on that poll, Critter Country? I think I have seen that alligator before.. :) Although it could be an entire land devoted to hotels, I am thinking Critter Country. EDIT: KrazyBella nailed it before I could. :)

I think it might be New Orleans Sqaure. I love the monorail music mixer as well!

I wonder when all of this new stuff will come out. :rudolf:

Awesome find, Slinkyman!

http://img110.**************/img110/7681/8h456fghfhiv5.png http://gallery.vmkforums.com/data/500/VMKNewGuy.gif

I'm convinced the new land is New Orleans Square.

Does anyone smell a Hotel land? :D

Does anyone smell a Hotel land? :D

Oh, that would be exciting! :D

exciting...but doesnt make much sense....but I guess we would just have to wait and see..

I love the chair behind the crocodiles head(the vmk one).I hope we can get some for our rooms.

So based on information, pictures, polls, and items coming out, we have come up with the following lands since a few weeks ago.


Epcot
Mickey's ToonTown Fair
Critter Country
New Orleans Square
Liberty Square


funny how we guess so many lands because of a few clues.

edit: Schmoofy, i like your hotel idea..will there be a Pop Century room?

Awesome find, Slinkyman!

Well, you've definitely identified the character in Yavn's column. But... Well, that still doesn't really tell us anything.

Well, I think part of the new land is the bayou cafe. Just thinking out loud :D

New Orleans Square would be a nice land.

And, yes, that does look like the bayou cafe. I was there a month or so ago; I think we may have figured it out.

~Spotty

Why can't they say, "Here's the new land, have fun!" and give it to us! :)
More waiting. :D

you made up this quote after seeing National Treasure, didn't you.


they said some quote in the movie like "why can't they just say 'Go here, find the treasure, spend it wisely?"

Well in my opinion I bet it is New Orleans Square, that's my only guess. I mean it has an alligator, and a cafe. It's the bayou cafe! ;)

I wonder if the Alligator is the new NPC, whatever new land they have is ok with me.

I like the monorail mixer, but I think we will need to wait for more info about the new land.

I like the monorail mixer, but I think we will need to wait for more info about the new land.

usually once yavn mentions the new land or shows a picture, it's only a few days until it comes out.

- light bulb above head - maybe just maybe for some odd reason along with the new land you could check into a the hotel we mentioned earlier!

If we're going to check into any hotel in VMK, it should be the Hollywood Tower Hotel. And we should get to buy the bellhop uniforms.

that's a good point you make...but i want a Pop Century Hotel! How come we get the animal kingdom lodge (and possibly one based on port orleans, if the new land is New Orleans Square), but not any other hotel?

The football and baseball guest rooms are both reminiscent of Disney's All-Star Sports Resort.

I'm intrigued to see what the new VMK map will look like. Haven't they used the same main page map since the game opened, even though TL and FL were still being finished?

yeah, Frontierland and Tomorrowland at the time had a coming soon page (pretty much their logo you see when you first log in with a "coming soon" on it when you click to enter that land).

I thought so, but I wasn't sure. Wasn't Frontierland a wagon with Frontierland or bust on it, or do I disremember?

So new land will for the first time mean a new map. That will be weird for a few weeks (until I become re-brainwashed)

lol, yes to both things you said.

All of Epcot gets only one guest room? Shouldn't there be one for each country in the World Showcase, as well as several for the Future World attractions?

What if instead of Space Mountain guest room, a Tiki Tiki Tiki guest room, and all the others, we only had one "Magic Kingdom" guest room? That wouldn't make much sense, and neither does having only one guest room for all of Epcot.

But the Magic Kingdom is the main park.

~Key

All this will get me back into the game more! Ooo , Epcot room (NORWAY???)

I love the idea of using the monorail as well. Smart move. And what are those chairs? Will we be in Mouse of House?

Well, no matter, a new NPC. Fun!

Kepp up the good work VMK, you are starting great online trends!

I KNOW! A COUNTRY BEARS ROOM! Its Like right infront of my eyes...SEROUSLY Thats a cafe. SOO Its Hopefully it.

Best part of the ride is when you look up and see Max, Buff and Melvin.

Golly I miss that show! My kids love Pooh, but they would have looooooooooved Country Bears.

I hope at some point VMK gets the bears in. After all they still have them in Florida (along with a superior pooh ride)

TigS

But the Pooh ride at Walt Disney World replaced Mr. Toad! :( So I'm unhappy on both coasts!

I thought of that when posting, but didn't want to get to far off topic. Well at least they help each park maintain uniqueness. (I know it's a stretch) That is why VMK is so interesting. It models itself after both coasts.

That's more sarcasm, right? Please say it is.

that picture is a pic of an alligator and by the looks of it hes playing an instrument. (Fantasia Maybe?) This could mean Toon Town bc Fantasia relates to Who Framed Roger Rabit could he be the NPC and when will tommrowland get an NPC? 2007 has alot in store for us in vmk I have a feeling. exciting isnt it

:nemo: Nemo :nemo:

That's more sarcasm, right? Please say it is.

lol. What, you dont love the smell of alien burp?

Hope It Is Neo.. But if its the Country Bears.. I Will think im in a dream. I LOVE THEM! ^>^

For those who believe the new land is EPCOT...
Why would they have a room AND a land for EPCOT, while for the other lands they just had a room for them?
Anyways, I think it's a hotel land!
R.I.P. Country Bears DLR <3

~Key

You know it's ironic the new Tomorrowland at DLR was a big disappointment thanks to penny pinching. VMK Tomorrowland was great until we finished the quests 2 days later. Also a bit of a disappointment.
They should have included a Stitches Great Escape game, it could have been modeled after Pacman. Of course camara would be let down with the lack of burp smell!


TigS

p.s. I am really hoping for a new credit giving game in whatever the new land is. Preferably single player so I don't need a team or to wait for 10 people.

I just remembered what that alligator reminds me of. They had one that looked similar connected to the Port Orleans French Quarter Resort. I don't remember exactly how it was used (merchandise maybe) since I stayed at Riverside, and my memory is awful anyway.

Well..Goodnight. We WILL Find out soon. I Hope..And i HOPE To be there for the opening.

gotta be kidding me! if it gets to crzy im going bye bye! LOL jk

This is what the future VMK should be, In my opinion

I just noticed something, check out the monorail picture, you know how it says what land you will be dropped off at? Well, check the picture, it looks like it says
"P__ROVIMSLRELAND" That's what it looked like at least.

http://img480.**************/img480/3968/yavnspks20070103mmmixermv2.jpg

I don't know of any land that starts with a P.

Heh, sorry to burst your bubble Ducky, look at it in it's normal size, it says P. Adventureland. Still, what does the P Stand for??

Actually, it is easier to read in the normal size... ADVENTURELAND - mind you it is scrolling, so for a freeze frame it is possible that the letters go together a bit at that angle.

P --- NEXT STOP

Next Stop?? heh heh... oops >_< Well, The Monorail won't help now, time to get more clues.....

Well, I'm sure VMK would do something fun with it. They said they will not make rooms (usually) just for the fun of it. Does anyone know the name of that restaurant? It was like baseball themed, and it sold hot dogs? Oh I remember now, it was by the castle. No, that was somewhere else. Ok now I am confusing myself.

Casey's Corner, on the Corner of Main street at WDW.

why woulld they make a resort a whole land?

They could make New orleans Square.

New Orleans Square is being built in WDW, it was in the pass holder newsletter

http://img167.**************/img167/8186/8h456fghfhiv5wq3.pngLooks Familier?!?!

Yeah a new in-park quest! Probably an EPCOT quest... ;)

awwwwwww that not fair i was just at disney 3 days and EPCOT!!!!! My mom siad i am not going back there for another few YEARS!!!!! She says disney is just soooooooooo expensive!

CURSE MONEY!!!!!!!!

Please not single use -crosses fingers-
Now, he said that probably before single use was even in their heads.

I'm convinced the new land is New Orleans Square.

remember..

Main Street has a MGM Studios room so it still might be toontown's mickey fair..

might be New Orleans Square..

Might Even be 1 room of New Orleans and The whole toontown mickeys fair


im still wonderin what this land is

ok i think that it will be a mixesd place of mickeys toontown fair and new orleans square but i think it will be called mickeys toontown fair

I'm just curious, what would one do in New Orleans Square?

I'm just curious, what would one do in New Orleans Square?
Dance around saying 'New land New land new Land new Land!!'

Dance around saying 'New land New land new Land new Land!!'

LOL, and those pictures above this post kinda prove it might be new orleans square (why not liberty sq)(sp?)

I'm wondering why they suddenly updated this newsletter? This isn't worldshocking news, unless they add the new things today?

and remeber what yavn said. say a magic "code" word and he might do it. so that must be the land npc

I think, since Yavn said that the new land is "small", that you will need the new GREEN SPACE SUIT MAGIC to get to it. Sort of like the way you get to the inner-space shop now with the blue suit magic. It would also have a magic word to activate it, like all magic pins do. Makes sense, right?

I saw a staff "QA" (that's a game tester) a couple of weeks ago with this magic wandering around in castle forecourt. I started to ask questions about it, and he said "oops", and disappeared real quickly. But not before I grabbed a screenshot of it. I am on a different computer now, but I'll post it this evening.

That's my two cents.

i can not wait for the new land and the epcot guest i hope its buyable

I'm wondering why they suddenly updated this newsletter? This isn't worldshocking news, unless they add the new things today?

I wondered about the rush myself. What are the usual release days? Fridays (for pins, mostly) and Tuesday. Of course one thing about VMK, you don't know anything for sure until it happens.

If it is New Orleans Square, do you think they will move some existing rooms around? And if they do maybe even add new rooms to old lands? I LOVE NOS, it's my very favorite land. But I just can't imagine it's purpose in VMK as it is now.

Curiouser and curioser!

TigS

what is yavn exactly trying to say?

I see a couple of events on the calendar for Neverland??

Could it be Toyland?? Innoventions??

When will it all come out??:santa2:

Maybe toontown, remember that poll?

A fusion of the it's a small world ride and Epcot? Both have lands. Maybe you get there from the dead end path in Adventureland or through Montro's mouth or or or.....?

I really dont like when VMK dangles this stuff over us i mean it makes us seem like dogs waiting for our owner to drop the left over chicken bone from dinner lol XD

lol - but really it does -

Just a thought, has anyone ever thought about disney's california adventure? its roller coaster is in eslplanade

lol - but really it does -

I actually like DCA, but I really really hope not. With so much to choose from in the Disney oeuvre that would be selling VMK short!


TigS

I was reading earlier in the forum and I just wanted to straighten out something. Everyone is guessing who the new npc is and if its that gator. But yavn says in ()'s that it is, why else would he put the picture under it??

(Even the new Land's NPC does something totally new - just say the magic "code" word and you might see some magic...)

You ask for it



ROFL oh you had me excited their for a second, I've not logged into VMK yet and I did a little WOOT it's up lol

Hmm Yavn has an evil mind, he likes making us think. (JKJK) Yavn has a great imagination and sense of words ... now if only i can find out what this land is..

I have a feeling the stuff is going to come out tomorrow .-. just my opinion though...

Yes just enjoying (most) of the posts and seeing if my hints were enough to keep you excited.

Don't worry you won't have to wait to much longer...


Yavn
COOL!:new_year:

I have a feeling the stuff is going to come out tomorrow .-. just my opinion though...

yes, the main 2 days for new stuff are Friday's and Monday's (usually Mondays for new lands and things like that). I hope it's Friday, then we all get the weekend to try everything out.

For me, everything will be out tomorrow :)

Why do you say that, Gabyta?:)

YAVIN?!?!?! CAN WE HAVE ANOTHER HINT! THIS ISN'T FUNNY! WHEN IS THE NEW LAND GOING TO COME OUT?!?!?! (Sorry for yelling!!)

YAVIN?!?!?! CAN WE HAVE ANOTHER HINT! THIS ISN'T FUNNY! WHEN IS THE NEW LAND GOING TO COME OUT?!?!?! (Sorry for yelling!!)

congrats on your first post?


anway, his name is yavn...Yavin 4 is the name of a planet from Star Wars

sorry if this is a tad off topic, but did anyone else notice the vmk homepage has music now?! its pretty cool.

It's looks like the new land may be New Orleans Square! Sure Mickey's Toontown Fair won the poll but look at the alligator! First of all it's an alligator. Alligators live in Louisiana. Second, look at the chairs or whatever they are behind him. Don't they look New Orleans Style?

Hmm....what's a VMK Pass?
Anyway, this new 'Land' seems pretty exciting. The new enhancements seem a little worse. If we have to pay for tickets to just see the new land, that'd be a bad idea. I mean, we have to pay to go to a Land now? >_< '
The monorail seems fun. I'd like to hear new sounds and a new music mixer!
The New Castle Fireworks game seems pretty interesting and bit more fun..
The NPC will say a magic word and will do magic? Hmm..I smell a new magic pin coming out..i guess as a key to the new land >_< '
OK..if there's an NPC, there's a store. If there's a store..there's items.
There were cafe chairs. Did anybody think that this store might just be a little cafe filled with food for our VMK Characters? I think the cafe idea is great.

Yes I saw the cafe as well. Could it be New Orleans Square? Maybe.. we'll just have to wait and see.

i have figured out 7 hints (at least, i think so):


Hint #1: "will be our smallest Land yet."

this most likely means it is some land in Magic Kingdom such as Liberty Square.

Hint #2: "everything is not always what it seems (for instance, just because the map looks small does not mean the Land is small)."

This means there is most likely more to the land (hidden rooms such as pirate treasure room) that is not on the map, making us believe it could be a big land, a small land with many details, or a mix of a few lands.

Hint #3: "In fact, our new Ticketing System was in part designed for a specific location that won't even be on the new land map."

This statement supports my guess for what Hint #2 probably means.

Hint #4: ";-) We create locations exclusively for the purpose of enhancing the existing game-as I've said before, we don't want to add rooms just for the sake of adding rooms."

This most likely means they spent a lot of time putting a lot of things and details into this land, or multiple lands, to improve the game.

Hint #5: "(Even the new Land's NPC does something totally new - just say the magic "code" word and you might see some magic...)

Somehow this has to do with the gator, which is blue and dressed up like a marching person or a soldier. However, the gator may just have to do with a new column coming out in the future, since he's apparantly in yavn's column, and not just because it's a picture.

Hint #6: yavn constantly uses the word "land" as "Land," with a capitol "L." This could be used to name the land until the official name is released, or this could be a hint letting us know the new land somehow uses the word "Land."

Hint #7: The new in-park quest is planned to be at both parks, meaning it most likely has to do with the new land since this is all going on around the same time. That means the new land (or lands) must be at both Disneyland and Walt Disney World's Magic Kingdom.


well, that's about all i could figure out.


I got a Big Thing that This new land will be "The Land"

and will require transport on the monorail to get to it
and we will have to Switch at a "Ticketing and Transport Center"
and the Monorail will stop at a 2-Way Monorail Station
Hop on the EPCOT and it will take you to "The Land"
Witch Guessing will sometime sell our "EPCOT Turnstile"
Sounding like a Hint??

I just realized something now let me just say i would be ecstatic for New Orleans Square anyways....

Some people may or may not know about the Club 33 ( i believe this is whats its called). Its located below the Pirates of the Caribbean in Disneyland, and its pretty much top secret (not really cause I know about it) BUT this might explain the hidden rooms, because you have to be a member to enter. So in VMK you need a ticket to enter....follow my drift?

Also there is Cafe Orleans in Disneyland possibly explaining the cafe chairs (although i have never been there, or disneyland I am assuming the connection)

Also, possibly the Disney Gallery, displaying stages of VMK history.

Game, not sure which though.

Other possibilities, but I am definately leaning towards my favorite New Orleans Square (you know it was Walt's favorite too, so don't be surprised even if some items already appear in VMK)

Muahaha, when the monorail music mixer comes out i am going to copy the exact song that is in the newsletter, just to see what it sounds like. ;)

ok idk if anybody has said this yet but........ what if that is a pic of tom morrow? hes futristic and it could be part of the epcot room and not even a part of this new land. i hope it comes out soon because i dont like to wait lol.

why can't they just have mickey as an NPC?!

when will all this be out??

It's looks like the new land may be New Orleans Square! Sure Mickey's Toontown Fair won the poll but look at the alligator! First of all it's an alligator. Alligators live in Louisiana. Second, look at the chairs or whatever they are behind him. Don't they look New Orleans Style?


It's the gator form Port Orleans French quarter hotel. He is next to the pool area. He is part of a marching band.

Now what does he have to do with VMK??


Nemo

New Orleans Square is being built in WDW, it was in the pass holder newsletter

why? it better not go in the MK. that ruins the whole park! what would even go in it?

i ment like the cafe and overall setting, along with a possible show.

I thought it was a robot you know they need to make robot staff that would be cool so they can stay open late

This is the first I have ever heard of something like that. Do you have proof?

If the new land is Critter Country can anyone see those briar chairs coming out?

i forgot all about those!!!!

it could be critter country.. because the person looks like an alligator and its a small land critter country is small..toon town is still bigger than that i believe who knows it could be an extension of frontierland?

when will all this be out??

Nobody knows for sure but sometime soon, probably this week or next

I'm going cra-zy! Biscuits and gra-vy!

I saw a staff "QA" (that's a game tester) a couple of weeks ago with this magic wandering around in castle forecourt. I started to ask questions about it, and he said "oops", and disappeared real quickly. But not before I grabbed a screenshot of it. I am on a different computer now, but I'll post it this evening.
Still waiting for this picture.

What magic is that?

carpet magic maybe? Its the only one I can think of

maybe they decdied that instead of just realsing one single land to realise all of the land that remain into one

why can't they just have mickey as an NPC?!

Good point why cant the original characters be NPC's.Another thing is if they add Epcot, MGM, etc. they would need to change the name of VMK to VDP (Virtual Disney Parks) changing the life of people who play VMK.

P.S. There are alligators in Florida too. (not to mention crocodiles)
P.S.S. It could be a Florida park because WDW was built on swamps where gators were.
P.S.S.S Its still more thank likely New Orleans square with a mix of other lands.

hey BaldEagleBob when will you release that pic of your's?

Sorry, Neoteny and piratewithskill!

I had alot going on yesterday and could not play online, LOL. One of you regulars PM'ed me to remind me of what I said. I will get this screenshot up as soon as I get to home computer.

It's definitely real. Those of you that have done deals with me know I don't just throw baloney around for a reaction. (I am thinking to myself, "oh great. Now they all think I'm one of those outrageous claims makers online. Maybe I should just go all the way and say I got an inferno and a stitch hat with my treasure detector pins! LOL!")

Just be patient, I'll do it. I have a real life that intrudes on VMK sometimes.

P.S.: you spelled bologna wrong

"Baloney", derived from the word "bologna", is actually a correct spelling for this usage.
It means nonsense.

Not the monorail one but try it on the normal music game

is the vmk pass out? you have to have a 5+ person line to use it

Nothing is new yet.

I just want to point out that I think toontown is officially ruled out for being our new land.

Someone said "I hope toontown is come.in to vmk" or somehting like that and a staff member in the room replied "why would there be a toontown where there is already a toontown online" - Maybe the staff member was trying to trick us.. maybe not. I guess we will see...

The VMK pass picture was a decoy.

On the moderate resort part, you can go to Port Orleans - French Quarter. Bring up the virtual tour, then click to the pool. If you check out the magnifying glasses, there are MANY of these gators around the pool. I think this new land is in fact a hotel land!

Hotel Land? What kind of land would that be?? I would really be disappointed if it was a hotel land.

Or wait.... do you mean like New Orleans Square?

http://www.laughingplace.com/files/BlueBayou/BB%2003.jpg This is the Blue Bayou restaurant, chair look farmiliar?


hmm, I have an idea, what if its everything orleans ( New Orleans Sq., French Quater, etc. )

If that turns out to be true, I'd be VERY disappointed. What would be the point of adding a Hotel as a new LAND in the game? There's nothing it could really offer that isn't already provided by guest rooms...

"Yay! We can now go hang out at a hotel! What fun!" C'mon. There's plenty of great ideas at various Disney Parks that are easily useable.

oh no, i can see it now

Boy: Hey bay be, want to go eat at the Blue Bayou?
Girl: Sure, are you paying?
Boy: anything for my girl
Girl: aww i glove you, let's go.
