I am wondering how they are going to work the queues. It's not like there's an automatic line at the turnstiles - you have to click and move your character to get up there if there are multiple characters near it.

Marysol
04-27-2007, 02:56 PM
Hehe, I had off yesterday and today. Woot! I'm going to think of a new room idea as soon as i get some of thoes niffty prizes.

The newsletter said each time you ride you get a prize, but come back because the prize is different each day.
So I'm guessing the more you ride the more prizes you get, and it will be diferent each day.
at least thats how the newsletter made it sound..

Oh kewl, I really want the bushes =]]. Will there be a ride Contest after this, I hope! I never participated in them before becuase i was wither too poor/lazy/un-creative, all three at one point in time. I have some great ideas, Cant wait till the room comes avab.

That is about the ugliest thing VMK has put out. LOL

Has anybody figured what ALR stands for?

comic_dreams
04-27-2007, 03:23 PM
It's yucky - but it goes along with the theme, and wow, it that carpet big or what?

tinkerjules

are the rugs tradable? It's too bad we have to pay to ride!

So what's the queue like? Crazy mobs in front of the turnstiles and you just have to keep clicking to get close?

Yea, these are hidious. I think they look OK In the rooms themselves. Just when they are alone..uh yerr.

comic_dreams
04-27-2007, 03:32 PM
I think they'll start to flow with the new items soon - but yes, alone, they look just awful.

MissyMiss
04-27-2007, 03:35 PM
Guys, you are being so critical! I think it looks cool. If I remember right, this item was in the final room of Fin's river teleporter game, once you pass through the toll booth. It looked like a shadow when she had it on the floor. It doesn't look right in that Everest room that someone posted on the last page, though.

Didn't Yavn say there were going to be over 100 items released with the dark rides?! They can't all be as amazing as those dancing flowers (which by the way still bother me!!). Even if it was just a reworked snow carpet, they still took the time to recolor/shape it.

Can't wait till I get home and stock up on some cheap VMK stuff! You can't go wrong at 10 credits :) I'm hoping for some room dividers over the weekend.

Marysol
04-27-2007, 03:36 PM
Items we are waiting on for - Flying Carpet, and EPCOT. I rather have my EPCOT Turnstile then a bush. LOL

alexwonderlandd
04-27-2007, 03:37 PM
I was having a conversation with fin in fantasyland courtyard, she says prizes the next to days will be the walls.
=)
and then we talked about coffee, and I saw her attempt to pull the sword out, didn't work for her either. lol

ALR = Alice Ride, 2 x 2 meaning the space it takes up. They probably didn't rename it yet.

Anyway, it's basically a grass carpet, much like the snow, except smaller. Great uses are around the corner with this, I can already think of a few.

StitchMad
04-27-2007, 03:47 PM
I actually LOVE this new rug. It's a good one to create shadows.. ect in your rooms.
I'm loving it!

You can always sell the rugs and get your ten credits back.

Like Neoteny said, I would be riding the rides all day long trying to get the magis to get a prizes at least now I get something for my 10 credits. Be happy the rug can be used for other things not only Alice theam.

I don't get the grass thing. It doesn't look like grass at all to me.

I just put 20 of these rugs together on the floor of the HSM gym room.
It looks like there is a huge hole in the floor!

Could be interesting if one is creative...:cool:

They don't quite overlap, so it's not a solid mass when you lay a bunch of them down.

I think it'll go well in the new Dark Ride room.

04-27-2007, 05:38 PM
If the next prize (tomorrow's) Is a dark stackable room divider, would we be able to use a large lot of these items to 'black out' a regular guest room? That's what I am experimenting with right now!

Thanks for the post, lol.

I kept typing in "host" and "dark" and "ride" into the search thing. Then I decided to come to the forums to see if there was anything about the rides. Maybe the rooms were closed for a while or something.. but I guess not. Silly me. :rolleyes:

Wow yesterday I was getting tons of pins - today nothing!

I don't know if anyone else has complained about this yet...but I really wish they had announced that these rides weren't going to be in host rooms! Everyone is so confused. I was in my room titled "ride-a-thon store room" and I must have had 50 people coming through panicking because they thought the ride-a-thon ended.

During the Ride-A-Thon dates every single time you ride either dark ride not only will you have a chance to win the Sword in The Stone Single Use Magic Pin, but you'll win a special prize for every single ride! The prize you win will be different each day - so be sure to ride all weekend!

La la la, can somebody get off VMK!?!? I would like some more rugs. I wish they would let more people on by expanding their servers.

Yeah, there's been some message lag for the past half-hour or so. The messages will show up eventually.
Not just a "message lag"...just lag in general.

I don't think this could be worse since no more ppl can get connected :(

This is ridiculous. One of the biggest companies in the world and they advertise for people to play this game (which is a good thing) but they aren't prepared for the traffic? I don't get it. I would pay for this if it meant better customer service and an overall better gaming experience. What a shame that Disney don't know this. Sigh.....back to trying to log in and stay on without crashing

How about all summer... :eek:

People need to ride the ride or go somewhere else. Standing in the Courtyard doing the Pan Pin Q Quest and/or other stuff is now causing queue line ups leaving the rides. Please ride or move on. It will help us all and maybe no more VMK crashes. Thanks!

I was confused about where the dark ride rooms were. I knew the dark rides were located in FantasyLand Courtyard, but I didn't know that's what the ride a thon was going to be. I was looking in the Popular rooms and hoping to find a host room with a ride. That stinks that it takes place in the courtyard. The hosts should have made rides and such. Maybe less crowding. At the moment I am doing the rides to get carpets for my room. So I will be doing that for a while. :)

Yeah your %100 right there. i wish they would come out with a thing were you can could stuff and gain levels and stuff like some other games but i guess that would not be disney lol. they need to come out with better quest system also i think that some can only be done by what level your character is.

I'm officially calling it quits for the night. I probably have 100+ carpets stored in a Football room. I can't wait till tomorrow to ride again (sarcasm). :D

I_Am_Smiles
04-28-2007, 03:35 AM
I probably will have to get off soon and get back on tomorrow and tomorrow night. So far I probably have around 20+. Will there be any other prizes this weekend? Maybe some ride pieces?

April
04-28-2007, 04:03 AM
I don't think the prizes will be dark ride pieces yet..but we will be able to get them soon.

I've got maybe 30ish rugs? I'm getting a bit tired now though.

Wowzers. I am going for about 100+ also. Although these will not all be for me. I am going to be spliting with my sister :D.

Well.. anywho.. I am looking forward for tomorrow although I won't be able to start any riding until after 3 or beyond -.-

StitchMad
04-28-2007, 12:19 PM
Ended up with somewhere around 80-85 rugs.
Plus my Jr. Casey pin woot! :)

The question now is..
"What do you think the prize will be today?"

TravisSch
04-28-2007, 12:29 PM
I hope the prize is one of the green hedge pieces. :)

I'd prefer something more multi-purpose, such as track pieces.

04-28-2007, 01:55 PM
If today's prize is the hedge pieces, at least make them stackable. :)

They are i bet, as seen in the host room ;)

MagicMonkeys
04-28-2007, 02:01 PM

Do you have absolute proof of that, if you dont mind me asking?

dragnfly-princess
04-28-2007, 04:28 PM
I can't stay in the game long enough to get one!! As soon as I log in and go to the courtyard, I crash!
And now when i check my friend list, it's gone again like last week! Is anyone else having these issues?!

Noelle
04-28-2007, 04:50 PM
Yes, I am crashing after about every other ride. Friends list comes and goes. Messages are arriving very late.

Yes, the lag is even worse than it was yesterday. Plus, I've had to wait in queues between ride rooms! That's right: Queues during the rides!

JessCats
04-28-2007, 04:51 PM
So far I have crashed 7 times. I think I will crash many more to.

I have the queues between ride rooms and sometimes I crashed when I enter one of them, not only at the end :(

So far I have crashed 7 times. I think I will crash many more to.

I know it's not a competition but I've crashed 15 times :( sometimes I crash at the last room, after I get my prize, but others I crash in the middle of the ride :(

Looks good, Colt. These new items are going to have many useful applications. :)

Those rugs are good but they're most useful stacked at three on one another and that's a shame. Still...many uses :)

04-28-2007, 09:31 PM
I switched computers, this one is faster and I have no lag at all. Now I hope I don't dc.

Update: have yet to dc

To be honest.. I think those new rugs look like mold! Seriously, look at them! I see mold. I'm liking the hedges though, those will have lots of uses.

04-29-2007, 05:17 AM
Hmm. If you put the paint splotches on top of the hedges, you can walk on them....

puchisana
04-29-2007, 02:47 PM
Ok It will be start in 15 minutes, but I dont know if I will get it bc I have to go to granpa house, so I will not be in game. Maybe I will just get 2 or 3. I will be off most of day.

Ty and have fun

I don't recall anything unless it was in one of the recent newsletters that I didn't take the time to read. I guess we will see when VMK opens. I don't really care what the prize is.. I'll take anything that is pretty much free.

I don't think we would need fifty to a hundred ride starts each. I'd much rather see track pieces, as those would certainly be useful in bulk.

KrazyLuke
04-29-2007, 02:54 PM
Well we all know that Yavn's newsletter can be confusing and deceiving sometimes, but I did find this in the 4/9/07 Newsletter::

Make tracks to the Ride-A-Thon and win dark ride items like this Alice track piece before they're released.


Only about 8 minutes or so until we can just find out anyways.. LOL
