We are proud to announce the release of our new Bug Reporting tool. We’re calling it the Cy-Bug Reports Google Form and you’ll have direct access to report any technical issues you find while exploring the kingdom. When reporting an issue, please be sure to fill out all required fields. Here are some examples of issues that could be reported (please do not report these as they’ve already been documented):
-Friends lists are not populating until you double click on the middle of the menu
-Puppet String hat gets stuck on avatar
-Photos are sometimes warped when you use the MyVMK Camera
Please note that the following issues should NOT be reported in this form, and should be reported as a Call for Help in game:
- Item(s) missing from your inventory
-Not receiving a HOST event prize when you believe you should have
-Issues with tasks in a Quest
To report an issue, you can access the form by clicking the link below. We recommend saving it as a bookmark for future reference!
Let’s work together to find and squash some Cy-Bugs!
Have you seen Maleficent Mistress of Evil, Frozen II, Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker, Onward, Cruella, Raya and The Last Dragon, Luca, Black Widow, Soul, Jungle Cruise, Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings, The Eternals, or Encanto? After you log-in on the homepage, click on the Claim Movie Ticket Pins hyperlink and submit an image of your ticket to receive an exclusive pin! Due to current circumstances, players may submit a photo of any of these four movies on their screen (including Disney+ and Blu-ray) with their avatar in the picture. You may need to reduce the size of the screenshot if the file size is too large for your submission. It may take a few days for the pin to appear in your inventory, so please be patient with us as our moderation team reviews them! Guests may only submit one screenshot for each movie. Multiple submissions will not be accepted.
Join us throughout the month for Meet & Greet and Penny Press pop-up events! In order to participate, you will need a Pressed Penny Collection Book and one Autograph Book (either Mickey or Minnie!). Both are available in the Emporium for 5,000 credits. You only need one of each to participate, but you may purchase multiple if you wish to decorate your lanyard with them!
Heigh-Ho! Heigh-Ho! It’s off to build we go!
In honor of both the month of love and our theme of Be Mine… Let’s welcome our newest competition! Freshly mined out of the MyVMK caves comes our first duos challenge. Now, what does this entail? Well, read below to find out. Be ready to have your pickaxes and shovels ready to dig into these details!
1. Each team must be a duo. No more and no less than TWO guests.
2. There is a minimum of FOUR rooms per duo. A maximum of EIGHT is allowed.
3. The rooms must be made using Everest/Yeti ride pieces and teleporters. You may use slow or fast dark ride starts to change your ride's speed.
4. You may create a duo name for your team. Make sure it is appropriate. Ex: Dynamic Duo, Fintastic Duo, Disney Duo, etc…
5. Decide who will be your team leader. Their room will be the first on the journey.
6. Your first room will be (Team Name) Duo - Start (owned by the team leader). Each room after the start must be named (Team Name) Duo 2, (Team Name) Duo 3, (Team Name) Duo 4, and so on.
7. BOTH team members must contribute to the competition. ONE team member cannot build everything. This is a teamwork event. Anyone found to be building alone or for others will be disqualified.
8. Make sure all rooms are connected. Once judging starts, if your rooms are not connected, they will not count.
9. Be aware, you may only be a part of ONE duo.
10. Please make rides long enough to enjoy the room. While there is no set minimum time overall or per room, make sure each room is a decent length and continuous (no breaks/stops).
11. Feel free to be creative. While our primary theme is mining and the tracks are Everest related, this does not limit you to either. Have fun trying to get creative with it!
12. All ride rooms must show a MINIMUM EFFORT. Any rooms found to show no effort or attempt will be disqualified.
13. All rooms must be completed by the dates listed in the next set of guidelines.
The guidelines for registering are as follows:
1. Sign-ups begin on Monday, February 14th, 2022 at 12:00 AM EST.
2. Registration will close on Monday, February 28th, 2022 at 11:59 EST.
3. All rooms must be completed by Sunday, March 13th, 2022 at 11:59 EST.
4. Once signed up, you may change any info (whether it be teammate, team leader, or duo name) until Monday, February 28th, 2022 at 11:59 PM EST. After that, all duos are final and may not be changed.
5. Only your team leader should register.
6. Please list both your name and your partner's name on the signup form.
7. Submit a name for your duo, that you both agree on.
8. Provide us with the email associated with your in-game account. This will help us verify you registered for this competition and help deter any potential false submissions.
9. About the above: This information will remain private and not be shared with anyone.
All rides will be judged on four categories:
Best Theme, Most Creative, Players Choice, and Best Overall
For each category, there will be ONE Grand Prize team and FOUR Runner Up teams. The staff judges will decide what category your room falls under. The final category will be based on a player vote, where all rides will be shown via a YouTube link. Players will vote for their Top Five rooms. This category will be determined during staff voting and will help determine our winners.
Judging will begin on Monday, March 14th, 2022 at 12:00 AM. Your rooms must be completed before then. Judging time may vary. We will be giving you more information regarding this as the time comes.
A staff member will place a flag in your room once it has been judged. Please do not empty or clear any rooms until judging has been completed. Feel free to leave your rooms open for the public to see!
Please make a note: Neglecting to follow any of the rules stated above may put your duo at risk of disqualification. No clones or multiple accounts are permitted to be used during this competition.
We cannot wait to see all your creations! Let’s see who shines like diamonds or who will be our diamond in the rough! All prizes will be announced at the end of the judging. Happy mining!

Ever wanted to know more about your favorite staff member? Now you can! Every month we will be interviewing a different member of the MyVMK Staff. Here is the most recent interview!
Say hello to this month's staff of the month... HOST_Daisy
What is your favorite thing to do around the Kingdom?
My favorite thing has to be designing and playing quests!
What has been your favorite HOST event thus far?
I really enjoyed my Teleporters of Terror event last October! It was a fun challenge to design a room that looked like it had a basement level.
What is the best item for building your rooms?
I like a good carpet, and often use either the Andy’s Floor Tile or Disneyland Stone Floor.
What is your favorite type of Guest Room?
I love the Ariel’s Grotto room! It’s so pretty and you can swim around as a mermaid!
What is your favorite Public Room in the Kingdom?
I don’t think anything compares to Castle Forecourt. It’s so perfect.
What is your favorite mini-game in MyVMK?
Haunted Mansion
What is your favorite theme on VMK?
I’m still waiting on Duck Month, so until then, I really liked Royalty Month for the gorgeous prizes and releases.
Favorite MyVMK memory?
Releasing my first quest, the Dumbo quest back in September, and getting to see everyone enjoy it was such a fun experience.
What is your favorite Disney park?
I’ve been lucky enough to be able to visit 8 Disney parks, but my home park of Disneyland definitely holds a special place in my heart.
Who is your favorite Disney Character?
Besides Daisy? I would say Ariel.
Is there any advice you would give to guests?
It’s easy to take this game for granted, but don’t forget to stop and be amazed and grateful that VMK can still live on after so long!
