This article contains tips on how to get judged by a staff. Remember, these tips do not always work right away, you have to keep trying!

Step 1: Where Do I Start?

So! You have just created a great new room, maybe even using the tips from the Guide to Creating a Successful Guest Room! But now you want to get the room judged and seen by all of VMK. How? you wonder. Well, first, you should get right to the Guest Rooms forum on the VMKForums website and post about your room! Be sure to include all those details, such as what room name or VMK player name to search and some info on the room. It's up to you if you want to post a picture of your room, but I suggest you don't, because it might ruin the point of going to it. But be sure to make the post interesting, maybe add a picture that goes with the theme of your room. Now that I have a thread about my room, what do I do next? you wonder. Well...

Step 2: Friends Are Good To Have

Now, you should get back onto your VMK screen and click the mail button located at the bottom of the screen. See what friends are on, and start inviting them! Be sure not to just give a bland "Come." when you message them to come to your room. Try making the message interesting so your friends want to come! Try to include the room name and what you do in the room. Ta-da! Now you probably have some people in your room, but before you do anything else, you have to follow this next step...

Step 3: Welcome To My Room!

Every time someone comes into your room, don't just ignore them, they love to be greeted! So whenever someone comes into your room, say some type of greeting, like "Welcome Insert name here!" or "Come on in!" Woohoo! Now you have some happy people in your room, they were greeted and excited to be in your room. Now, to keep them there...

Step 4: Let's Play A Game!

So, you want to keep everyone in your room without them getting bored? Well, maybe you could try asking everyone if they want to play trivia! This is a great way to keep everyone happy and entertained, and also a way to get the people in your room to invite their friends! Prizes aren't essential, but they are nice if you want to give them. Your room is really bursting with people now! You are so excited! But... where is the staff?

Step 5: Nominate The Best!

Once you've opened your room and people come, they might just nominate your room for winning Best Guest, Best Game, or Beset Quest! How? Well if you use contact us, located at the bottom of the the VMK home page, it will let staff know, that people think a room should be looked at for possibly, winning Best Guest, Best Quest, or Best Game! You could also nominate your own room for a chance to win Best Guest, Best Quest, Best Game! When you use the contact us, put in your info, then click, Nominate the Best. Once you have done that, put the character's name, and the title of the room. A staff will check it out, maybe not on their staff account, maybe as a regular player, you never know! Staff could come without your room being nominated so, always be on your toes!

Step 5: Hello VMK Staff!

Your room is on the popular list! You are so excited! You think the staff will come any minute! And after using these tips every time you host your room, you are right! The staff comes! "Hello VMK Staff!" You got judged! Congratulations!

Remember to never stop trying. It may take you months, it may take you days. Just remember to HAVE FUN TRYING!
