August is new Trolley Games month, and Toons are having a blast all over Toontown! The Toon Council is excited to release four brand-new Trolley Games -- with a new game launching every week. So far Toons are sliding into fun with the Ice Slide game, becoming Toon shutterbugs with the Photo Fun game, and having some wacky side-scrolling fun in Toon Escape. Ride any neighborhood Trolley to check them out! Plus, we have one more to go -- and it looks like it just might "steal the show." Stay Tooned for the fourth new Trolley Game -- coming next week!

Toons can also test their Trolley Game skills with the Perfect Trolley Games Weekend! Starting this Saturday, August 23 at midnight PST and running through Sunday, August 24, for a full 48 hours. Play as many Trolley Games as your Toon can, and the top 5 Toons who achieve the most "perfect" Trolley Game scores, per neighborhood, per day, will win a copy of "Hannah Montana and Miley Cyrus Best of Both Worlds Concert: The 3-D Movie" DVD!

The Toon Council is pleased to share another "Toon Enough!" selection! Toontown modeler extraordinaire Greg built a Toontastic 3-D Bossbot C.E.O. He's definitely "Toon Enough!" Click here to check it out!

Do you love Toontown so much that you bake real cream pies, or host Toontown-themed parties, maybe even paint portraits of your Doodle? If so, you may be "Toon Enough!" The Toon Council is sending out the call -- show us how "Toon Enough!" you are in your everyday life. Every month we will spotlight a Toontown fan who has brought the game from the computer into their real life. Click here for details on how to submit along with the official submission form. You may just see yourself in the next edition of The Toontown Times!

Dear Toontown,
I reported another Toon that keeps hopping off elevators, but why are they still in Toontown?
Cheryl

Dear Cheryl,
If you report a Toon for displaying any "un-Toon" like behavior -- that Toon is not immediately removed from the game. First, your report is sent to a Moderator for review, including any associated True Friends Open Chat between any Toons who are involved with the report. If the Moderators find any violations of the Disney House Rules, they will then take the appropriate action. Please note that the Moderators cannot see any SpeedChat that has occurred between players. Also, any actions that are taken on players who have violated the Disney House Rules are private, and will not be reported back to the player who sent in the report. We hope this helps. You can also learn more in the Toontown FAQs.
