Like you did for everest and river ride. Its a room that's open to the public at all times (that you don't play in like WDWizard does and messed up my ride track in everest :thedolls: )

I will change the wording. Thanks!

Add me cat
I agree with you the last time was totally crazy but then again having to bug people to get their room done was totally crazy also.
Note to self no teleporters in the room for the event. :blush: Do we have to worry about that or what? What kind of room do we need, and will the new room be available for us to buy soon?

Since last time called for a minimum of 10 people, maybe we should limit our teams to 12 or 13, keeps us small enough to keep the stress level down but with a little wiggle room if somebody decides to drop out. Also maybe each captain should choose a co-captain in case something unexpected comes up.
Let's keep it fun and without any :bang: this time!

As previously mentioned, I probably won't be on enough to create a ride. But I'd definitely be glad to donate a few items and help out where I can :) Just gotta let me know! Send me a message on VMK--NOT on Intercot, because I hardly ever notice my message box here--if you need anything, and I'll see what I can do :) Good luck to you all!!!


Oh, and Cat...Kudos to you for getting this organized! Sounds like a whole lotta work ;) But if anyone can get this accomplished, I know it's you!

I think I would rather be a Co-Captian with you cat, rather than having to manage my own team all by myself. So, if that's ok with you, thats what I prefer.

Oh oh! Pick me! Pick me!! Pick ME!!!!

Just a word of warning of whatever team I land on, I tend to be designing a lot of "scary" rooms lately. Don't know if it's the kiosk (which happens to be in all the rooms I've made in the past few days) or the new stuff VMK keeps throwing at us (skeleton monkeys anybody?). Hee hee! :thedolls:

LittleDragonErin
06-29-2006, 12:29 PM
I wouldn't want to decide on being captain or co-captain until I know what weekend this is going to be held. My weekends usually **** for being on VMK.

Chescat
06-29-2006, 12:35 PM
Let's do this Erin. If its just a matter of it being a weekend, the team captain is just needed to submit names, they don't need to be there for the ride, just a member of the team. Could Monkey be your co-captain? Like I said I will be worrying about the logistics here, so there won't be as much pressure on the captains.

What we also did last time was when one of the intercot teams was judged, we then all moved over to the other team to make sure there was always somebody in an intercot room. We plan on doing the same thing here.

Oh, I'd like to donate a room or join a team cat! The thing is, I don't have any ride pieces and I'm still gathering credits :blush:

I'm a little confused :confused: Is this a real competition? Or just a friendly battle against us Intercot-ees? You mentioned staff but..

Anywhoo, sign me up! I'd love to do this :D

I would be thrilled to donate any of my rooms -- even more than one! One question though -- If I donate a room, am i responsible for building the slide in it? 'Cause that just ain't one of my strengths!! :shrug:

But -- like I said -- you can have any of my rooms you want!! Let me know....

Just for a reassure, I'm good at building slides and I have lots of rooms to donate, but my problem is that I don't have the pieces to the ride :blush: But I still want to sign up :D Sorry for the repost I just wanted to clear that up :)

I have re-thought this no non-intercot people. I know we have friends out there that aren't intercot but we all know. If its agreeable to everybody, if a captain or co-captain knows the person that wants in, then I will leave it up to their judgement if they want them in for the ride. But they will be responsible for that person. Don't let your team down when it comes to the event.

We have to submit the names ahead of time. The rides don't have to be done but if you back out and your room isn't attached, your team does not qualify for the event per staff instructions (last time people got disqualified, but not our teams). I would like to see all the rooms attached by teleporters at the time we have the submittal of names. At least have teleporters (entrance and exit in place) and one ride piece. Makes your captain a little saner that way.

And once this is over, we reserve the right to take them out later if we have problems with them. :thedolls:

Ok... seeing as Little isn't sure, and Monkey hasn't replied, it would most likely be best to have two co-captains on team four. If Little can't do it, then Monkey becomes captain, and I become the only co-captain again. Sound good?

I promise I wont break it this time!! But im going out of town this Sunday and probably wont be on Saturday so if thats when the ride parts are coming out im going to need somene to get me some. And im going to WDW July 7-9, im not sure if thats going to be a problem. :blush:

Arg! Just came up with a cool idea for the slide pieces and wham! Shut down. Forgot that the Tiki Island room isn't available anymore :(. Arg! Back to the drawing board. Lol!

Anyway, how about this, if Monkey decides to be Captain, I will just be a regular team member, otherwise I'll take the Captain spot with Mickey.

Its not really that you are donated a room. Its that you are making a ride room out of one of your room. We've had a lot of people in the everest ride say I can't do a room. And by the time we all help each other, you would be amazed at what you could do.

DisneyDreamin', I've assigned you to Padme's team. I know you are having problems with your computer and Cita & I can help you with a room. She will have more time then me. So that's the reason for that assignment.

As far as the Captains. I talked it over with Chevellefan (my kid I call him), here at lunch and bounced my decisions off of him. I am going with the four teams right now with the captains: DotRocks, Padme, Monkey and me. We want to see what the minimum is for the ride and then we can open it up to more captains. And also see how many sign up. We maybe doing one more team possibly once we get detail. I want the captains to be people I know that have had the experience in previous rides.

I know there are always people mad and that's why people started given me the title Madame Cat! I guess that's why I make the big bucks (oh wait I'm not getting paid). :secret:

Also on my team, I'm not looking for anybody else to join, so please don't ask. Our team is not going for the win (we've given up!). We are just trying to put rooms together and have fun. The only person I may add to us is Doll if BlueGreenBoy doesn't do a room.

I am updating first post with the rules. Anything underlined is new.

No you can have as many as you want. Since we are not being real serious about this for the win, I wanted to limit who was on my team. Also this way I am impartial so I can help the other teams. :D

Hi all,

First of all, I would like to apologize for not checking intercot as much as I would have liked to lately.

Second - questions and issues with the Captain thing for this event. I would love to Captain a team, but, depending on when the actual event is and/or when we have to submit team names, etc... Here's the reason - I will be out of town from Sunday July 16 to Monday July 24. Basically - 7 days with little or no contact with a computer. If any deadlines fall within that week, I don't want to let the team down / be responsible for everyone's hard work and creative efforts.

Does anyone know any details yet?

Chescat - if the actual event or submit deadlines are between July 16 - 24, just put me down for a room and/or start room and/or exit room for any team.

Otherwise - I'm all good for being Captain. If there aren't enough people interested in joining team 1, put me on another team.

Thanks!

Magic, you can join Monkey's team. But beware, you are on Erin's team if you don't behave, she will burn you.

Sebou I have also added you to Monkey's team. If Varcity decides to do a room, we will also add him to Monkey's room. He's due back in next few days.

We've added SparkleMeTink and Zumop to Padme's team. We are trying to contact Hockey fan about whether she wants to be on DotRocks or Padme's team.

Jenemmy, we need to find you? What is your VMK title and need to met up. :D

Terri.M does your son, Taytaymojo also want to participate?

DotRocks, do you still want to be captain or join another team? I wasn't sure from the message in the other thread.

Cat I think I got a propleam for next week. I got my next weeks days I work and well I only have Monday and Wend. off of next we. So I really don't know how I'm going to do my new ride if it is next week. I can maybe do some of it in the day time. But night is a nother thing. So if you still want me in it's ok and if you want me out it's ok I understand.

Chescat

Unfortunately, VMK as usual has not given us any specifics so it panics people. These are the facts from before and we hope they do this again:

1) We have to submit the titles of the rooms and owners to staff through contact us. Each team has to have a title and a captain. That captain has to submit their teams information. (This is why we need at least skeleton rooms for everybody).

2) Once the list has been submitted, you cannot change the title of your room. Nobody from your list can drop out or you will be disqualified. If somebody does a room and is not available at the judging weekend, that not a problem. Its that the room has to be there!

3) They gave us a few weeks from the time of the submittal of the list until the actually judging weekend. I notice on the current calendar this month, there is no judging from now until end of July. But we never know when they change their minds. Last time they upped the credits and that's when we had ice month. :D

4) Once you get your room done, you don't need to be there for the weekend of judging. At least one person from the team has to be there in the room or you don't get judged. I want to see minimum of at least 3 in each room until you are judged, then you can move to the other intercot rooms. Last time we said, that person is not here right now, but I'm so and so and I'm on the team. Then they got judged. It seemed the more people you had in the room the better so you got judged faster!

My gut feeling it will be the first weekend of August when I'm gone. :fit: :angry:

Yes, I still would like to be a team leader, providing there are ppl interested in joining the team, of course!

I just don't want to make ppl mad / upset by being away from a computer that week.

If there isn't enough interest to make a team, add me to someone else's team.

DotRocks, I sent my post in just after your first post and didn't see it here when I put request out.

I'm feeling bad because I had promised you that you could be captain of a team for the next ride that came out and I don't want to fail you that way. I think we do have enough people to have another team. There may be an issue though of submitting titles in that timeframe.

Lets do this, let see what we find out this weekend and beginning of next week. We don't even know size of teams. If its 5 or 6 instead of 10, there won't be a problem. We go ahead and form your team. If we find out there is the conflict, we can have another person then submit the titles and become the captain at the point, in your teams case you would be co-captain.

You will be in this ride, I promise. :mickey:

Okay I'm going to ask some of our past ride people out there that I haven't heard from. Listing whether you people going to be doing a ride this time. If so we will to add you to a team? We need to start filling up DotRocks Team, but the other teams also need people.

ArielRae (not participating for event)
Mars (is she still MIA?)
MKWalt (do you have time?)
OrngeCrush
Snarky (do you have time with your social schedule :D )

And some new old people:

MaryBelle
RicksCafe (not participating this time)
Tomorrow/StickeyMickey (not participating)

:hi: Here I am!!! My title on vmk is Jenemmy. I have been on vmk for a little over a year. I sure don't want to throw anyone off -- I did not participate in the last group competition and am not totally clear on all the logistics of it. I am willing to do anything, though -- including just watch and take it all in so I can rock on the next competition. If you need to leave me out this time, it is no problemo..... :drama: I will somehow carry on LOL!

Magic, you can join Monkey's team. But beware, you are on Erin's team if you don't behave, she will burn you.

OK, I am interested!

...but do have a few questions.

1. Does it need to be a specific room (somebody mentioned skeleton room)?

2. I take it that the room and ride must be unchanged, for an indefinite period of time, or is it till a specific date? Just checking due to the possible use of lots of furniture being tied up. My wife and kids are possibly interested, but are nervous about their assets being tied up somewhat permanently.

I wanna do it... :)

The room can be anything you want. People use skull room or everest room because it doesn't cost us any credits. :blush:

Issue of the room. If you want to participate in the ride and then take the room back, just let us know ahead of time. That way we will put you near the back of the ride, then when the event is over, then you can take your room back. We would love to keep you in the ride system though, since it is a lot of fun.

In the past we've had simple rooms or complex rooms. Some of us continued changing our rooms after the events as we got more stuff. The only thing we ask is don't mess with the track (ahem WDWizard) or if you do please test it first. Don't feel you have to put all your stuff in there permanently. You can take the decorations out after the event if you want. :blush:

Doll, I'm concerned about your schedule here. Do you think you could get a simple ride done before you leave?? I don't want to add you then find out you've disappeared on us with no room. If its a matter of being in the ride system, we can add you when you come back.

Please PM me when you are leaving and we can figure this out.

Monkey I sent you a PM so you know who I am :) .

WDWizard, I'll get as many ride pieces this weekend as I can (going to rain here both days :( ) so don't worry.

Dragon, next time you see Monkey message me so I can meet up with you two and get him on Sebou's list (he's on MissMabelle's list and I don't ever use her any more).

I don't know the rest of you (GreenMickeyDude, Astrospritzer and FlyingIceMan...well and WDWizard too I guess). So I'm looking forward to meeting you all!!

Chescat
06-30-2006, 03:41 PM

I think what I'll do is tentative put you down on my team for a room. Since I met you first and we can show you what we are doing. Then you can decide if you want to get into the event or not. :blush:

Also remember teams, you need to think of names for your team.

Chescat,

You can definitely put me down :) I was more worried about placing hard to get items that I may later want to trade. So no problem, I do not mind leaving some items in there rather than in an inventory room!

As for the family...I will ask if they want a a room. Is there a team that they could go on if they decide to? We will be back on Saturday night and can check responses, as well is give you the heads up about them, otherwise, we will most likely be tied up with the ride-a-thon most of the evening since we will not be on during the day.

LittleDragonErin
06-30-2006, 06:27 PM
Arg! So annoying. Brings back memories of February when everybody was too busy building rides (so they're all in "Do not enter" rooms) or playing games (for more ice and credits) that there's nobody to hang out with. -_-'

Anyhoo...Monkey said he'll be on as much as he can tonight. So he'll try to meet everybody on the team he hasn't yet. I might not be there to intro since I have some place to be. He said if anything, he'll be hanging around the pirate lobby since he hasn't had much time to play.

In regards to our team name, Monkey wants to wait and see the details before deciding on how to approach this, but he has several ideas already he'll toss out once it gets to be that time. If you have ideas, go ahead and keep them handy and when this all becomes truly official, we'll find a time to meet and decide. ^_-

Jenemmy & CoolJessRocks - do you want to be on team 1 as well? Be sure to let Chescat or me know...

Chescat - add LittleMissAttitude to Team 1 too, please. She's an Inside Out kid and is on both Stilgar's and my friends list.

Hockey, Terri, & CoolJessRocks - you're on my friends list too... Jenemmy - don't think I've had the pleasure of meeting you yet though.

Once we have Team 1 confirmed, we should arrange a time to meet online. I should be online for most of this weekend. I'm watching the England / Portugal soccer match on Saturday, but will be online after that.

I mentioned to Chescat that although we should aim to win, I don't want to lose sight and miss having fun. Therefore, we should focus on being really creative and fun... If anyone has any ideas - let me know!

06-30-2006, 07:16 PM
Jrwv, you may find with doing a ride it gets very costly. You might want to pool all your resources to go to one room. We could put something in your description like Jrwv & lpiglet. I also need to get you guys a teleporter door.

Terri.M, I'm not sure who you know. I've seen you in Little's quest area. Do you have a perference.

CoolJessRocks, same thing. I sent you a pm. We can see when the names are submitted. But I think you will be here when it happens.

Jenemmy, we need to find you!! Let us know when you are on normally, then we can figure out who can find you first.

Added everybody else to the list. BTW, the order is not in any order at this point. I'm trying to keep families together so I can remember. :blush:

Oh and another thing I forgot. Each team needs an exit room. That exit room will drop people out into a lobby somewhere. That prevents people from loitering in your rooms. That's the other reason we block the rooms also. What we don't want is staff not being able to go through the whole ride or people riding during the event.

Hi... I have some additional notes.

Wait until more details are announced before starting to build ride rooms.

During Everest event, I jumped the gun and started building my ride room, only to find out a few days later that you could get Everest rooms. I had to dis-assemble one room and re-build in the Everest room.

So, wait a little bit, collect credits like crazy, and let's see if those cool lookin' water park rooms are available in the not too distant future!

Chescat,

I will be doing the room and LPiglet said she would help on mine. One of our kids wants to do one, but we have, talked him out of it due to the 'expense' of construction and leaving furniture.

Let us know when and where.

I'm not the coordinator of Team 3. We will have to talk to Monkey. Also not sure what our rules will be for this event. Is there a minimum or a maximum amount of people? If these darn rules would come out on titling teams and number of players/rooms, we could plan a bit better. :mad:

Jrwv, as far as the kids joining in. There will always be room after the event is over. If the kids find they want to add on to any of our previous two rides or this one they can.

Chescat
07-03-2006, 02:41 AM
I fully agree with DotRocks. We always get thrown curves from VMK, so keep your ride rooms in the planning stages until we get more word. They may have a requirement we have to use a new room or certain things.

DotRocks, I want to double check with you since you are more organized right now than I am. You have gotten pictures of all the Captains except MonkeyBoyJoe for the doors?

One thing that DotRocks has done for her team that makes sense is she has created a hub for her team that feeds into a room. That room also has a door for each of the captains.

Now Rocks, this is where I'm not sure. Each of the captains should create a hub for their team and the captains door leads to DotRocks hub. What is this hub? And should each teams captain's hub have a door to their ride? :help:

I would imagine so. Let me try to explain here:



INTERCOT Hub

Team Hubs (1, 2, 3, 4)

I

/\

Ride Rooms


Does that help? I'm really not the best at describing things lol.

TinkRocks

Hi Hi!

I think I understand that correctly, Photopass.

Basically, I created a hub where the four team captains have a door teleporter. These four doors should lead directly to the official ride start room of each ride.

In my case, I also created a team hub where all members of my team have a door where they can access the official ride start room in case I am offline. There is also a door in this hub that leads to Team 1's official ride start room.

So, in Team 1's official ride start room, there will be three transporters - one from the team hub, one from the Inside Out (Captains) hub, and the third transporter will be the ride start.

Obviously, every team can set up as necessary, but just thought I'd share my thoughts...

TinkRocks
07-03-2006, 10:37 AM
Hi Hi - me again,

Another note while we are awaiting more information - before everyone starts going on a buying and building frenzy, it maybe worth considering some sort of order of rooms.

Not sure if it makes a huge difference, but if one person's room ends with an uphill section, then the next room could start with a downhill section.

I guess it would also make sense for some sort of logical theme.

Anybody have any comments?

trackbarroness
07-03-2006, 11:28 AM
That would/can actually work Dotrocks
At the moment I have to rooms that I'm setting aside for the event, but I was trying to figure out the logistics of the ride pieces with the building material I do have. I hope that they will sell the supports along with the rest of the ride pieces that will help the ride flow more evenly. That's probably what their doing today adding stuff to the stores inventory for us to buy. I hope one of us is able to buy at least one of those new rooms. Or whatever way they plan to distribute the rooms.

I don't believe its not your decision on who is on the team. Leave that to Monkey and if he needs help from me, its between him and me, that's why we have a chain of command here.

Also to all of you, please let your captains make overall design decisions for the team. There is a reason these captains were choosen by me. Its their extensive experience on doing rides and putting together teams. If you don't feel you can follow those rules, then maybe you should find another team that's not intercot.

You all know me (Madame Cat) and I keep my word, I will not let one person ruin it for the rest of the team or teams. This is a warning to everybody and I mean it. If there are problems and I hear about it, I will boot a person from a team and have no problem doing it.

I guess it would also make sense for some sort of logical theme.

Anybody have any comments?


I think the first part makes perfect sense! There needs to be an even flow.

Also, the Theme thing...I'm hoping the closer we get to this competition...VMK will give us a theme...or at least some sense of a theme.

We've official put DidneyWDWkm on Team 3. We need to talk to Padme about TinkCollector for Team 2.

Doll and Venetia can't be involved in the ride because of time constraints or credits, so I'm going to go ahead and give them doors to my team's hub so that they can feel like they can participate when the ride event come. I don't want to feel like we've left anybody else.

Jenemmy we still haven't found you and at this point I'm not sure who else we can add unless its one of our past ride builders. We still have to find out minimum or maximum we need for the rides.

And remember captains if you have any problems with a team member got my boot ready. We can always use the room for somebody else. :thedolls:

Obviously, we should wait for more detailed information before deciding on themes, rooms, etc. I meant we could get the thought process moving...

Chescat - Ladyvader will be joining Team 1.

Team 1 thanks for picking up your doors so quickly - much appreciated

Rocks & Chescat, I can confirm that Ladyvader is joining team 1. :D

Before this thread gets clogged up with the different things that the teams are going to do, should we make 4 different threads for the 4 different teams? :thumbsup:

Ladyvader has been added to Team 1. TinkCollector has been added to Team 2. keyshiacolefan and Jeremyv have been added to Team 3 by Monkey's request.

I have started 4 different threads for each team. Limited discussion in this thread to questions of what the rules are and general questions for the whole group to know about.

Specific questions about when and where to meet. Linking up teleporters, etc, can be put in the Team's section.

Thanks, chescat. For me it's time constraints - I don't want to make promises I can't keep. I do have a ton of the Slide-a-Thon pieces, though, so when the ride building commences, I can offer some to any team that runs out.

TinkRocks

Thanks Venetia, we really appreciate it. Safe some pieces for later. If you want to join our ride after the event you can. People are always welcome.

For Team 3, I have confirmed removal of the follow people. Astrospritzer, FlyingIceMan, and CL_MagicMarkini since they have now formed their own team.

But im not sure. Sorry this had to happen.

DotRock, Padme, and Monkey & their teams.

I only want to hear from captains on this thread if they are adding or deleting somebody (if conflict in schedule arises).

Also, I believe we can still discuss in this thread the schedule of team meetings. We don't want to hear any details about what people are doing, we just need to keep this thread to when people want to schedule their meets. This will make it easier on the captains, so they can announce meeting times or who they are trying to find if PMs aren't working.

Thank you all for your understanding, but this is the way it has to be. :thumbsup:

Hey Cat, we've been out of town a few days and this thread took off. We would be glad to help if any team still needs. If not, we will take our time and add to the end after the event.

I just read the rules for the submission time and notice they are accepting the first 200 teams that follow ... conditions.

I would like to see all the teams submit their lists on Monday morning July 10th if possible so we don't get left out or at least sometime on Monday.

Here are the conditions I see, please correct me if I'm wrong:

1) Captain's (Lifeguards room) must have the title: Shallow End .....

2) No dictionary dancing on room titles

3) No more than 20 on a team and no more than 30 rooms (minimum 6).

4) Once you are registered, you have to stay with the team.

5) Some member of the team needs to be in the start room at all times until the ride is judged. Captain does not need to be present at all times, just a member of the team.

6) Rooms don't need to be completed. Just order and room names of each player participating. The titles of your rooms can't be changed or you will disqualify your team so please be sure you are happy with your room titles before submission.

Blue Genie
07-05-2006, 09:25 PM
Ok I read the rules but I'm still :confused: . So does my ride have to have the name Shallow End ..... to it or is it just fine. Also what eles do I need to do. I see they are doing this on Aug 4,5, and 6th. Sad thing is I will not be on Aug. 5th. I'm going to Disneyland that day. So Cat,JP,Fluiffes Mokney help me out to understand this?

WDWfanatic742
07-05-2006, 09:55 PM
Only the first room had to have the words Shallow End in it. That room will be the team's leader.

At least one person has to be in the room so as long as one of us is in that room we are fine.

07-05-2006, 10:48 PM
Ok...this is going to be slightly :offtopic:

I was wondering how this ride business worked out the last time--was VMK more/less social while you were all building your rides?

Being the one of the few--if not the only--person not on a team, I find myself unable to really see any of you as you all have your 'working, do not enter' type of room titles up. I understand completely if you're all busy and need the privacy (you are all brilliant people, after all, with brilliant ideas that can't be copied) but it's awfully lonely :P

I'll be glad to help where I can--I've got LOTS of junk and some extra credits to spare.

Just curious if this is how it happened during Everest, as I wasn't around back then...?

WDWfanatic742

DisneyGirl you are on DotRocks team as agreed. I just need an order for her Rocks.

BrerFan and QueenThump have joined Padme's team.

Fluffies, I've heard from a reliable source that when you did a ride last time you had a do not enter sign up. :thedolls:

During the everest ride we only had two teams and drove ourselves nuts. You didn't see us for a couple weeks. You are welcome to come in and harrass as we are working hard to get something done. But we may not talk or you may be permanently affixed to a ride in a ride room. You can also be used as a crash dummy on the rides for testing purposes. But don't sue, we're not insured. :blush:

Yeah you just need to let us know by Saturday. Either Astro or Monkey needs to submit your name probably by Monday. :thumbsup:

Chescat
07-06-2006, 04:52 PM
Okay I have changed things around a bit in the front. I moved the team lists to the first post to find it easier. And then moved the rules (which I need to add to later as the second post).

I have updated the information on Team 1 and Team 2 per DotRocks and Padme. If there is any other information your teams need for me to put in there let me know. I figure that can be what becomes the submittal list for the teams.

For Team 3 (Monkey), if there is any room type information or order let me know and I will post it on that first post.

For Team 4 (chescat), we still don't have an order yet, but I have started posting what rooms each one of us are using. We start with that and when we finalize our team title, then we add the room titles. Genie I have yours, I just don't have it here at work with me.

I'm sure if there's information a captain needs to get out to their team, we can post it here. We can ask JP and Patti about that. But let me ask what our limits are. I know posting a time for a team meeting should be okay. :thumbsup:

Also to everybody else out there, please understand we are putting signs up in our titles saying under construction or do not enter. Be aware that people are busy and may not be able to talk. Also don't be surprised if you get booted, its nothing personal. :secret:

For all others out there other than MimiBoo, we're just about ready to close this for these four teams. I need to double check with SnowMegg also for my team. The captains need time to integrate people into their teams. Its hard when people decide to join up at the last minute. We're down to the wire now. We want those names submitted Monday so we don't miss out. :mickey:

07-07-2006, 03:55 AM

07-07-2006, 02:35 PM
Just confirmed, SnowMegg and Cool are on Team 4. (The spelling of her name is correct if VMK okays here title. She's on vacation for a while, so we've got another character we are using for her, so she can participate. Don't want to leave her out). :blush:

So my team is closed. Other captains, let me know when your teams are closed. :mickey:

Chescat
07-07-2006, 04:46 PM
Team 1 is closed. DotRocks only needs to get two more room titles and one of her team members needs to decide if he's doing a second room or not.

Team 4 still needs to come up with titles of rooms which we will do here shortly. Team 3 is basically doing the same thing.

I have redone the first post. We talked to SparkleMeTink who submitted the teams last time and said the order does not matter, that the format that I am showing now is what we need to send the list in (if you have multiple rooms, list them on the person). And we still pretty much keep with the order. I am trying to make it so that we can just cut and paste of that front list into the submittal on the contact page on Monday.

I hesitate adding any more people now unless its somebody the captain knows. We are down to the wire here. I'm sorry if we forgot or didn't get to somebody. Its stress time for all of us for the submittal on Monday. :sob: :sob:

Anybody out there know the status of WDWizard? We need to know if he's staying on Monkey's team?? :blush:

Padme we added CL_NASAMan to your list and awaiting his titles. I don't think your list her is up to date since I know there was an issue with Soarin. Make sure at least what you submit have the right titles and then we can fix it here after you submit. :mickey:

Only the first 200 compete etnries will be accepted.

We will reply to all entries with either a registration confirmation or rejection. You can avoid a rejection by making certain that your team meets the above requirements and that you provide all of the required information.

If you do not hear back from us by July 28 either we did not receive your registration, or you did not receive our reply. AOL's e-mail filters do not allow e-mails from us. If you use normally use AOL for e-mail, please provide and alternative e-mail in the Conact US form where it asks for your e-mail address."

Thanks Chescat - you rock!

I apologize - tigertail has been on our team for a few days. Obviously, I was imagining seeing his name on the team 1 list.

tigertail is a friend - he's registered here on intercot as tigertail, although he doesn't check in as often as we do.

07-10-2006, 01:55 PM
TinkRocks, I was just worried I had forgotten somebody on your list. I had just been cutting and pasting what you had been sending me. That's why I wanted everybody to double and triple check the lists before submitting. :secret:

Padme's list has been submitted.

Padme, can you look at the first post and tell me on JimiNewtron and CL_NASAMan, who has what room. JimiNewtron had started with a tomorrowland theme, that's what got me confused.


Monkey, have you submitted your list yet??? Just want official word. Now we all wait and see if we all made it in. I know that the lists were completely correctly, now we see who they choose. :confused:

Walt you can still do a room. When we get done with the event, we will merge this ride like the others into one big ride. Everybody can add on then. We would like to have you come out that weekend when everybody is bored waiting.

Fan, I think we will be getting an email. Because they mentioned the thing about if you have AOL mail.... If they would tell you in the game, why would they say that. I'm reading into it that each captain will get a email to the email address we provided them. I may be wrong?? :confused:

Good news is they took the format I used, so that's the way we reformated everybody else's. So its just a matter of them getting through the messages. I have every confidence that all 4 teams will get in since we did this early. Way to go captains! I know we worked our tails of the last few days to get everything just right.

See it does pay for me to drive everybody nuts before one of these things. :blush:

18 Winners Top six for 3 Catorgies which includes a grand prize winner and then the next 5 winners.

So each team has a 9% chance to win. Not too bad compared to the everest event.

TinkRocks

9% chance... I'll take those odds!

Now, if only VMK would hurry the heck up and e-mail me!

Just as a reminder, the lists that were submitted are not one for one with who's got what room. We have more rooms than we have people. We are going by the list in the first post of this thread.

(Exception is I may have a problem with the last two people on Padme's list). :blush:

I find this part interesting:


While it is not necessary to keep your ride open to be judged, we hope you will be able to keep it open during the event weekend so other Players can enjoy what you and your team have created.

Chescat
07-11-2006, 09:05 PM
This is what my letter from staff had (and it didn't say don't need to be there to be judged), just this:

Please try to keep your ride open during the event so that others can enjoy what you and your team have created.

I think at least what we did last time was as a room got judged, we all moved to the next ride team. So maybe they are hinting they want people to keep their rides open and could it be held against us if we don't? :confused:

trackbarroness
07-11-2006, 10:09 PM
Maybe that's why none of our teams won last time out?
:shrug: Perhaps we ought to leave someone in our teams start rooms so this way our slide rides can be open for the duration of the competition instead of the ride to be judged?

MonkeyBoyJoe
07-12-2006, 12:39 AM
I think it's just the opposite. Remember the last time, there were SO MANY players sitting in their rooms wondering...is a judge coming? Was I afk when they finally came? Did they decide to try my room when I d/c?

Not to mention it was Bat Magic weekend, so everybody was scrambling to earn credits and get those 10,000 credit pins. So hardly anybody was really hitting the ride rooms. And many felt they missed out because they had to room-sit.

I know that was the big concern for a lot of groups again this weekend. And of course people are wondering if another such coughTreasureDetectorcough magic will show up during that weekend.

So most of me is thinking that they have added that notice to the newsletter so players don't have to worry
about sitting in their rooms all day.

Oh..and just something to note...whether it was a factor or not, but the winning team was one of the last if not the last to be judged. O_o

TinkRocks

I still haven't received any e-mails from VMK - how worried should I be?

When I've contacted VMK before, it takes forever to receive a response - should I register our team again, or should I just shut up and be patient?

I don't want to let the team down...

Chescat
07-12-2006, 02:49 PM
Don't re-register. That could get the team disqualified. It seems like its going real slow. I know you got your team in early (before opening), so I think you will be okay.

There also seems to be people that have said they are getting messages in their vmk accounts and not the emails and they are showing those messages. Our team got worried that I got the email and not the message in VMK. That possibly I got an auto-response. My response came over 12 hours later. I had submitted Team 4 at 1:10am on Monday morning. So you can maybe judge by that.

I looked again at the newsletter. It specifically shows in there that they will send you a confirmation email. Somebody that was in JP's quest room last night looked at his email and found he had gotten a confirmation email for his team (not intercot). So those confirmation emails are going out.

Looks like no more teams are allowed in...friend of mine got this:


Thank you for your interest in the Pool Party Room Competition. As
stated in the Newsletter, registration is limited to the first 200 teams.

We have now reached our capacity for this event and must decline your
team's registration.

We hope you will join us in VMK Friday August 4 thru Sunday August 6
to check out the hundreds of rides

As for them green flips, she wanted inferno. But alas, my lighter just wasn't working too well. Maybe I was wearing the wrong shoes.

Wow, glad we got the teams in. Good work everybody.

I had to laugh the other day when I went to the park, I said to ChevelleFan, look at that kid he has a stitch hat on, I wonder how much he wants for it. :stitch: :stitch:

BTW, if we lost some people. We were all in Tomorrowland at DLR a few weeks ago talking and watched a girl go by with green flips. Then we remarked how the game really is making us laugh when we see rare stuff from the game for real in the park.

07-16-2006, 01:17 AM
So I walked off the monorail today and what happens? I nearly run over a couple 5 or 6 year old girls. What do I notice first? They're both wearing green flips. -_-'

Back on topic, I just realized something. The team before us and the team after us is going to hate us when this is all put together since we've got a double and possibly at some point a triple track. Lol. Good luck getting us connected properly. :P

Chescat
07-16-2006, 01:38 AM
We could alway do something similar that we did on the everest. We had hooked it all up as one right, but also had entry points in certain locations.

Maybe what we just want to do this time is use the everest hub or an everest hub and then put the doors in there to the start rooms for each team in there. That way things can stay in tact for each team. But people can come out of one into another one. :D

DotRocks pretty much has that hub now. So we can link it to the main teleporter room if we want or the ride room.

trackbarroness
07-16-2006, 10:14 AM
Pad May after I enter the one teleporter room that's attached to my Disney Dream aka Pirate Cannon room, which teleporter do I use to get to our teams start room?
Is are team all linked together now, or what?

varcity
07-16-2006, 02:58 PM
That is the funniest stuff I have read in a while!!! :rotfl:

I have an idea also. We can use our ride first and people can make the decision which ride they want to go on. Then, once we get to the next team and their single track, we can use the two teleporters and make them link to the one track with a start piece. Sort of like when you get stuck in the begining of a room in ride a thons
