Wow. Well, I get a magic pin almost every single time I ride. But have NEVER gotten anything from the stone. >_<
And it's only 10 to ride, not 100.

Just got three Magic Pins in a row. No pin.
Two More. Nut'tin.

It's random...I've gone weeks without any luck and then one day I got 2 pins in a row! I've done that magic at least 100+ times and have successfully pulled it out twice. Just keep trying. Don't use the pins all at the same room instance, move around and try a few pins and then move on. Try to save up all the pins for the day and then do it before you log or VMK ends for the day.

this happens with me too I save them up and then when I go use like more then 20 I get none! :( The only time I ever won was the first time I got the pin and used it when that room first opened. It was so cool! ;) lol

Yes, I have the same problem. It has usually taken me about 100 magic pins before I can pull the sword out. You are not the only unlucky one.

Yes, I have had this problem several times. All it needs is patience, we all have those times when we may not feel very lucky. I had just started a new account on VMK, and I had gone on the rides about three to four times and I got the magic on my third try after a while I finally got it.

I try to ride every day for about and hour or so. I average a pin a day that I actually ride. So I guess that my answer would be no, I don'y have that problem. :) Just keep trying or just trade for one. Matterhorn pins have been around a long time so should bot be too expensive to trade for one.

I think you probably always get it first try, because thats the only time I've ever tried it.

You know, if you would like I have a Matterhorn Pin I'd be happy to let you have! Just for the sheer frustration you've had. Let me know, we can hook up in VMK and you can have it.

I am fairly unlucky in the sword pins too...but since I only ride when I'm killing time doing something else, it hasn't bothered me too much. I had gotten three tea pins (traded two), one Casey, and one Small World. NO Matterhorns yet.

Rough estimate, I probably have tried about thirty sword pins for Matterhorn so not as many as you.

Well, that was very strange. After replying to this thread yesterday I went on the rides, took me 15 rides just to get two sword magics, and both pulled the sword out! I must admit it has taken me about 100 rides to get to this point, but at least there is hope - if I can do it, so can you ;)

Thats really thoughtful of you..
You dont have to do that though. I can keep trying. :) I just wanted to see if anyone else was having the same luck, and its your pin; you worked for it.



EDIT!!
Sorry mods for big text but:
I just pulled it out!!!!
