Join us for impromptu games of Hide and Seek with MyVMK Staff! All throughout the month, the staff will be hosting Hide and Seek games and hiding in public rooms only. Find one and you will receive one of these Halloween Costumes at random! Games will be announced as an in-game announcement and on our Twitter (@MyVMK) 15 minutes before the game begins. To win, you must find a staff member that is hidden, STAND NEXT to them, and be the first to say the following statement: “I found you (StaffMemberName)!”
Please note that players must WAIT to say the winning phrase until standing NEXT to the hidden staff member, rather than saying the winning statement as they enter the room, or while walking towards the staff member. Perfect grammar and punctuation is not required, but make sure to use the correct prefix (VMK_/HOST_/GA_/PROMO_/GR_) and try your best to type the statement correctly. Any magic used for an unfair advantage will result in a disqualification in the room the player is currently in. Winners will be up to the discretion of the staff member hiding.

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_JudyHopps!
What do you enjoy about being a staff member for MyVMK?
I love being able to create games for everyone to play as well as I love hanging out talking to players.
What's your favorite way to spend your free time around the kingdom?
I love to build so I do a lot of that but I also love to see all the great things others build. I try to visit others rooms as much as possible to see all the creativity in this great community we have. We really have a lot of talented builders!
What's your all-time favorite Disney movie, and why do you love it?
My favorite Disney movie would have to be Lady and the Tramp, but that is a hard one to stick to. I love all of the original Walt Disney movies and how Walt really was a think out of the box kind of thinker. I enjoy the history of it all as much as the feature films.
Have you ever been to a Disney theme park? If so, which one is your favorite and why?
I have often visited WDW as a child and now as an adult. I have seen it grow since the beginning and visited each new park when they opened. I would say my favorite is Epcot. I love how its has so much in one park, rides, culture and FOOD!! I think my favorite ride there is Soarin for sure, I love the feeling you are flying over so many places.
If you could have any Disney sidekick as your real-life companion, who would it be and why?
If I could have a sidekick that was a Disney character it would have to be Figment! I love anything that embraces using imagination to the fullest.
Do you have a favorite Disney villain, and if so, what makes them intriguing to you?
If I had to venture to the dark side I would probably have to say the Queen of Hearts would be my favorite villain. I love how she keeps order even if its in the silliest way.
If you could live in the world of any Disney movie, which one would it be and why?
If I could live in a Disney movie I would probably choose to live in Wonderland so I could have a never ending tea party. I collect tea cups and tea pots already so it seems like a good fit to me. Of coarse everyone would be invited!
What's your go-to Disney song for karaoke or a sing-along session?
Hmmm not sure I have a go to song to sing, I would pretty much sing any Disney song if I hear it. I guess it would depend on the season on which one I would pick, to many to choose from to pick only one.
Are there any Disney quotes or lines from movies that resonate with you or inspire you?
I love all Walt Disney quotes! If I had to pick a favorite it would be "If you can dream it, you can do it" I also love Dory when she says "Just keep swimming, Just keep swimming, swimming, swimming. What do we do? We swim, swim"
Do you have a favorite Disney or MyVMK memory or story you'd like to share?
I have so many memories with Disney and MyVMK but I think my favorite would have to be FOTA and seeing so many of the players having their artwork published in the game. I have met so many great people in this game and I loved seeing all this great talent turned into furniture! I love how creative things like these events can bring the community together in such a fun way.
