Sparky closed the end room so i didnt get prize

OMG!!!!
Host closed the end room :-(

also the orange it let us ride with our original cloths

Is it only one color being given out today?

Change that, Hula, Phinny, and Lily made a ride together. Nice! :)

I was in Orange, and the last room had more than 15 people. Check out this pic:

yup it is 0 so far 90 in line

Get in line for the longest line, grab a VMK Pass, get in line for the shortest line, then wait. Once you get your prize from the short line, the VMK Pass line should be very short.

I did that when it first opened, and I ended the first ride as soon as my pass said I could go to the other room. That was close timing.

Awesome, they sent you a message through your mail. Yea, I saw you, and a bunch of other friends. lol How did you actually get around to telling them about the problem? It was so laggy.

I was in Orange aswell and in the middle room there was a blockage with so much lag! anything i typed came up like 5 minutes later >_<. I got to the end room and there was another blockage but I got a prize and I ended up at the door. >_<

i wAS IN A QUEUE for the end orange room

The Typhoon Lagooon Ones look Kind of Funny because they look like you have a orange tail at the end of you lol

I was in Orange, and the last room had more than 15 people. Check out this pic:

I like how Sparky is on the ride. lol

Well, at least the room limit was increased to let more people in...rather than lots and lots of people waiting in a line to get to the last room.



Well done, overall, VMK! Fun times and great new additions to the waterslides.

I've only had VMK crash 2 times in 3 rides so far!!

Let's just say I have a mule on right now along with my real avatar - double the power! hehe

i didn't tell them anything

i didn't tell them anything

So they randomly sent you a message?

I crashed and it was there

Oh... right now I'm in yellow. The rides all look the same, I assume. I wonder how they make an exact copy of each other? Did Hula make a room first, and then Sparky took a picture and copied the room?

Hula's rooms are different from sparky's rooms.


They must have a copy-thing that they use.

You won't see any blue boxes in the rooms, because they load additional items before you get in. (Like how they would in the dark rides)

Come to my room to hang out if u have a vmk pass. We can play stuff and chill out and wait. pic coming soon

I noticed that too...but it only happened to me the first time I entered one of those rooms.

i am in line for yellow and i have 4 starts

I am line for yellow too, at 114. What are you?

I noticed these things:

Hula, Lily, and Phinny made rides together. Sparky made his own rides. Interesting... :)

I am going to get as many as I can today! Non-Stop Ride-A-Thon!!!!

i crashed again

Orange - 157
White - 84

Hula, Lily, and Phinny made rides together. Sparky made his own rides. Interesting... :)

How did you know? Does it say they all own the room or something?

heres the pic just look up AvastKrazy http://i56.****************/albums/g163/musicmixer123/stuff-1.jpg

How did you know? Does it say they all own the room or something?

No. HOST_Hula owns the start room of her ride, HOST_Lily owns the middle room of the same ride, and HOST_Phinny owns the end room. :)

2 so far 50 in line

Is this open all day ? because i can't make it on until later tonight...

so you can keep going to the rooms and get more and more of the starts?

Yes, it is unlimited.

I am 208 in line :)

-- Update --

71 in line! Woot Woot!

-- Update Again! --

48 in line! Woot Woot!

And the number just keeps going down...

Ok I got in and guess what.. I saw VMK_Zoo!

I have figured out that if you get a VMK pass for one of Sparky's rooms, then you can wait in line and have enough time to ride twice in a room made my Hula. Three pieces for the price of one.

Thanks for the tip!

Hmm.. I tried doing that. Pass for the longer queue and in-line for the shorter. At the end the pass was up before the queue :(

I'm # 17, 0 slides yet. :( I was sleeping. lolz

hmm how many can I get in one day

I bet someone already got 50 and out of the whole day they will get 500 LOL

Cool i just check and i got 10!!!

rofl I was in a room but didnt mean to lick the Exit sign 0_0

Thank you

I'm starting to get pics Spin. Don't worry. :)

I keep going on the ride with the smallest line

I noticed Sparky had some of those ALR Mushrooms in his room that haven't been released yet. I wonder if we'll get those soon.

Good Find TravisSch

here is a little hint... ALWAYS go in Red Blue Or Black so you can do whatever because it takes you straight in the room :D

What??

Anyways.. how many have ppl gotten? I think i have 9..

I have at least 30 or 40.. but I'm getting more every few minutes.

Come on ppl! if you get stuck just use the map and get back in line!!!! Don't make others waist their time! :)

I got stuck 0_0

I got stuck 0_0

and how did you solve that??

I think some of the teleporters are backwards... I went from room two to room one after trying to step back on ride from doorway. Got stuck and then just used map to start over. Plus there was one room where I came in behind a dark room wall - that was weird.

and how did you solve that??

- sniff - left the room . I was almost to the end of the ride.

- sniff - left the room . I was almost to the end of the ride.

yeah i had to do that too :(

If you're stuck in the second room, there should be a set of ride starts at the door, just click them and you should be back on the ride. :)

Start Red was blocked a few munites ago

I have a couple of quick observations here. First, I used the new start with some of my other slide pieces, and my raft switched back to the original kind instead of the Blizzard Beach raft once I moved onto the other slide parts. Does this mean that all of these pieces are new for each of the rides?

Second, is it just me, or are there up pieces (possibly down too, but I didn't see any) that are only 1 square long instead of 2? I think you can see it in a couple of the pictures people already posted in this thread (posts 1 & 18).

Slide-a-thon is up and running
New color start is the prize today.

the lines are moving fast and aren't as long as they were yesterday!

Yeah, but too many people got stuck in red. I ended up going back to the start while I was already in the middle. >_<

man i wish i could come on now lol i will be on later

Tip for people interested in getting alot of starts and avoiding a line:

1) Get to the busiest room line.
2) Get a VMK Pass.
3) Go to the shortest line.

When this happens, you go into the ride, and soon after you're done with the short lined slide, the pass will be ready! :D

I hope this wasn't previously stated.

Try to get in lines for the rides that automatically get you on the ride. Like when you enter the room, you are put on the ride. The queue moves much faster.

I know the the Blue ride is like that, but I am unsure of other rooms.

The rooms that are owned by HOST_Hula (which are also the rides made by HOST_Lily and HOST_Phinny) have downhill tracks on the entrance of the room so you should automatically get on the ride. :)

and i know of another way to get more. what you do is get in the line that has the longest wait time and then get a vmk pass and get in line for the shortest line so when you are done with the shortest line your vmk pass should almost be up so it is like you go on two times in a row :) hope it helps

I think the lines are shorter because sunday is usually times where theres church and other random things...There's going to be no lines by 8:00 :D

Rooms where you automatically enter the ride when you enter the start room:

Black
Blue
Green
Red

Rooms where you must click to get on the ride after you enter the start room:

Orange
Purple
White
Yellow

The first happenstance is a product of the original start piece. Take that out of the equation and everything will be fine.

The second thing happenstance you observe is what happens when you stack up/down slides right next to each other. It's just a bug of doing so.

I have noticed that there is only three people in some of the lines for the slide a thon! The biggest line is 34 at the moment... 0_0

Probably because everyone is sick of riding it so many times.

I just got into a room with a: NO person queue!

Wow... bc eventually these might be rare! And I think that I am going to get alot of these,. I got an idea for and game room using the pieces :)

They will be for sale after this...

They will be buyable soon yavn said.. so some peopel would rather wait

Well, I still rather get them for free than have to pay for them.

I have no use for these new slide starts. Thats why I am not riding and you can only sell them for 5 credits.

But, Think about it, thy could become rare. And, you get them for FREE. What do you have to loose? But in a way I agree... But I might use them.

Wow! There's like no line anymore for these rooms. I guess everyone is mostly satisfied with the amount of waterslide starts they got. :)

I don't know how much of them I've got but I wanted more.. I almost had no time to be online this weekend.. I hope these pieces don't cost 500 credits as the Alice stuff from the past ride a thon.
2 hours before closing time I saw some rooms with 0 ppl in it :)

I think i might have to trade everything i have to get almost get 90 Typhoon Lagoon Starts.

I have 20 BB starts and only 7 TL- Forgot most of the day :(

Great S-A-T and I hope i have the credits to buy more I olny have like 500 right now sadly

i got about 75 TL starts and about 75 BB starts
