How did you find Vmk? Was it from a friend? Or were you searching for online games? Browsing in Disney.go.com?

I discovered Vmk when I was browsing disney.go.com. I was looking at the Disneyland home page and I saw a link to Vmk. I started playing and enjoyed it ever since.

Share your first discovery of Vmk!

I Discovered It Early This Year On Disney Park Sites Like Laughing Place, MousePlanet, Mice Age, And Disney Park Forums Like WDWMagic..

When I 1st Heard About It On The Sites, I Kept My Eye On It, Since I Love Disney Parks And Things Like Habbo Hotel..

I was trying to plan my next trip to WDW when a screen popped up for VMK. I took a look at it and decided to play it. This was about a week after beta ended. I then asked all these people where they got the magic and they told me VMK Fan site . come.

I found out about it at a Toon Town Fan Site called ************. It was on the front page of the website. At first I thought "This is just going to be another lame game" BUt then I decided just to go to the website. So I went and joined and I loved.
Thats where the old saying comes in handy " Dont judge a book by it's cover "

Ok, well, my story is differnt from others but here you go:

You see, I have my own website, and you get a guestbook, where people can sign it. A person signed my guestbook, and I went on their website. Then I saw their front page it said "I love VMK!" and it had a VMK logo next to it. So, I click on it, confused, and I played it. I loved it!

So that is my story. Weird huh?

My Story, is really different.
I was one of the first poeple to know about VMK(kid wise, i mean) we were on spring break about march and a woman came up and asked if we want ed to test a quest for a new video game. we answered yes, and went into what was soon to be VMK central at WDW. we chose to take the tomorrowland quest, and they said we were the first ones to do it. So we did our quest and got all of the questions right but we didn't get any code cards. but we didn't notice that either. I am a person who was here since day one, so by that time i was so nagry for them not giving me my code cards, but then, i realized they didn't even have code cards before the game came out. lol! but that is how i came to play vmk

I found it by another Disney forum. The Dis has an entire forum devoted to it. I saw it and wondered about it. So I started reading a little of that forum. I also saw this forum mentioned there.
So I tried it and found that for the most part I really like playing. :)

It was all the way back in May...

I was reading how the Disney theme parks are competing with the Video Game market. According to the article, Disney feels that kids now-a-days would rather stay home and play video games than go to a theme park...

This article was not from a Disney site, I think it was from an online Newspaper
