Guys...I figured it all out! This week is Invisibility week! There are a bunch of new items, but we just can't see them!

Ooooo! Everybody get your invisibility magic!

EDIT:
It's probably coming out tomorrow. You know how vmk likes weekends.

what if they changed the release days? instead of having new stuff released on friday, they only release on the actual weekend.

They could have a least left the old stuff if they weren't going to bring out anything new.

they're probably getting flooded with e-mails and the like from unhappy players. we've seen VMK late on stuff before, so it's not like this is brand new. personally, i'll wait till mid-day before i start to question the reality of a release today.

MinniesDream
01-04-2008, 02:33 PM
Heh, I was kind of expecting some marvelous item to come out when VMK opened on Jan. 1st (no, not at 2:00 in the morning ;)).

But hey.

Anyways, I am not going to complain; the people bringing the late updates/items are the ones who helped even CREATE VMK. ;)

sunnyskye
01-04-2008, 02:33 PM
I think a few weeks ago there were items released late. I think it was late by 30 minutes. So are there any new items now?

GoofyGeggy
01-04-2008, 02:34 PM
Wow...such a change in some people's attitudes from just a couple weeks ago.

VMK will surely release new items this month. Sometimes they have released the new pin on the Monday following the first weekend. I'm glad for any reprieve in new releases so I can earn more credits...especially if there's going to be new magic released.

Patience... lol

AGREED! So ridiculous! Not even a pin, LAME!

They took all the other stuff away. The only Host things are 2 more weeks of silly room judging. What about all the people that could not even enter?!

They really could not have some game wide Q's going on while the judging was happening???

Poor planning, as usual.

I'm not trying to sound un-patient, I'm just disappointed. They said it would be a great month for people who like magic. So I expected them to go above and beyond, and for them to not release anything, that is disappointing, and makes me wonder how the rest of the month will turn out. But, I could be wrong, and there may be so many new items on Monday we will be overwhelmed. At least, that is what I am hoping for.

CooledCoyote, yes it is still a holiday week, but that didn't stop them from removing the items, did it?

greenhpper
01-04-2008, 02:42 PM
Hmmm, well this is interesting. Since there is no pin and none have been seen on testers, then perhaps there is no set this month. There are only 4 Fridays this month so if none this weekend then I would not hold breath for a set at all.

I had a feeling that this month would be a let down from December. Last month had so many new and re-released goodies!

I wish VMK would just stretch the releases out a bit, rather than all at once. Perhaps the Christmas furnishings, the reindeer hat, the snowman Magic, and the pin sets for December. Then they could have the Gingerbread house pieces, the snowman hat, and the sweater/beanie clothes in January?

I think that would help the players budget their credits better.

Like I said in an earlier post; I am not going to be impatient or complain, because they brought us VMK... that is pretty much enough for me.

like the said im not at all surprised with vmk not releasing anything considering there are no host events on the calender besides the gingerbread judgeing .

Stunt
01-04-2008, 03:09 PM
The only thing that upsets me is:

"So what exactly is this Magical New Year all about? Well, a good magician never reveals his secrets, but I can tell you if you like magic you're gonna go crazy in January! I'll reveal all the details in about a week or so, until then, keep checking the Virtual Magic Kingdom for clues."

Quote from the newsletter.

So maybe good things are still on there way and the staff got to work late this morning and forget to "turn the new stuff on". But what upsets me is the way they hype it up for nothing (so far) and probably a handful of single use magic this month if anything.

There I'm done ranting, hopefully something good is coming either later today or tomorrow.

Acepowerboy
01-04-2008, 03:11 PM
Maybe new items will be release after the Gingerbread House competition, I know this is not what ppl want to hear. At least is giving me time to get some more credits, I spend a lot last month.

Khaki_footed
01-04-2008, 03:11 PM
i may jump on this afternoon, but i'm done for now. i've got more important stuff to do today. here's to everyone hopefully getting SOMETHING today.

Penguinz
01-04-2008, 03:13 PM
There could be something later perhaps? They tend to release some items (occasionally) later in the day, or in the early afternoon. I don't know.

abbycatkid
01-04-2008, 03:40 PM
See, if it is a "MAGICAL" new year, and when you look at how many unreleased magic pins there are, let's hope for a lot of them to be released this month. Also, be sure to save your credits!! I only have about 10k right now, so...I better get going.

SillyBrightPuppy
01-04-2008, 03:40 PM
More time to get credits right

virtualmagicguy
01-04-2008, 03:49 PM
Actually .. I'm happy they didn't released anything today because I'm on a very very .. very low on credits! Most spend from our last month and now i have only 4,000 credits, just hope they have some sort of double credits for pirates or mansion .. will actually make that triple for mansion. (Since they already have double credits still in mansion) =)

Click on Esmeralda. I am not sure if it is a new message or not but it does point to tomorrow..............

sunnyskye
01-04-2008, 03:55 PM
She always says that lol. I don't think VMK would give a us a hint through Esmeralda, but you never know.

the_phoenix
01-04-2008, 04:09 PM
I think they'll be released at 12:00 (known as the magical hour in most places.. hint hint).

kinami0782
01-04-2008, 04:09 PM
Oh no VMK recently has done awesome changing the NPC's to tell us about new stuff.... Uh only they usually change it about two weeks into the month and then leave it forever like i think ned still says to look at the emporium each week for november's pin set? i don't remember lol it was there for a while :wave2:

groovysqirrel
01-04-2008, 04:10 PM
LOL, I agree with GoofyGeggy. What a change in people's attitude from last month 'till now. Wow.

I'll just wait it out (and not sit and cry about no new items).

TikiPin_Dude
01-04-2008, 04:20 PM
they don't release items on every friday.. Soetimes they don't release items until it's a week into this month

Kit
01-04-2008, 04:22 PM
New stuff? Nope.
Clues? Nope.
While I'm waiting, I'll dream of a "double credits" magic pin you wear to double the credits you win at pirates/mansion/fireworks.
Hmmm.... or how about a puff of smoke teleport magic pin.
My imagination is better than the game lol.

kinami0782
01-04-2008, 04:25 PM
oh i like your imagination can we have that puff of smoke magic run into pick your favorite outfit magic hehe or a go to last outfit magic because i'd pay bat magic to not have to sort through my clothes to change back lol, do you know how few non-costume clothes match green ski:Madhatter_bounce:n?

rofl that actually made me laugh.. especially due to the magic tease and all.. ;)

i'm sure they'll release *something*.. i won't get mad just yet (actually, i'm still pretty mad over not being in the gingerbread competition, so i have no plans on signing on until its over if i dont *have to*.. lol..)

lol sorry random response, in light of i don't know how much savings i need to buy stuff lol, your new magic ideas made me think of stuff i'd like to be able to do in vmk like save favorite outfits or put pins in a pin album or whatever lol so we need more magic!!

NicoleMarie
01-04-2008, 06:04 PM
Let's keep a running count of how many days in VMK's Magical month of January we go without seeing any new items or magic for that matter. LOL :tink::pixiedust::sorcerer8::smiley14::smiley-think:
So far we are into to Day 4 !

bopper
01-04-2008, 06:34 PM
Pretty sure I saw a New Years 2008 Pin on 1/1/08 so we have gotten one item this month.

slinkyman
01-04-2008, 06:49 PM
More then likely nothing will happen until the end of judging. This is a great time to work on rebuilding those credits you spent during Jolly Holiday Month. I am glad that there is a break and can't wait until later in the month.

the New Year 2007 pin was from a in game quest that ran most or all of the month of January 2007. :rolleyes: LOL If you were refering to the New Years 2008 Pin, then I stand corrected. We have had 1 new item so far this Magical Month of January!

Changes counter: Day 3 with no new magical items! :tink::smiley14:

01-04-2008, 07:20 PM

Me too, my friend. It's sad that others always see doom and gloom when there's always a silver lining.

Thank you, VMK Team, for giving us an amazing December, and for giving us an opportunity to save some credits now. I know we'll be happy when the new items come out...well, some of us will, anyway.

Agree, sort of. October and December were awesome. Tons of new stuff as well as tons of credits being spent. January would be a good month to sit back and chill and reaccumulate some credits.

HOWEVER, my only arguement to that is that VMK should not have hyped up Magic month. Had they said nothing or said January would be a blah month, I'd be very happy with that. But I won't lie, when I heard this was magic month I was more excited then I had been in a while. I've for the past three days been waiting for today to see what new magic would be out or at least what re-released stuff would be out. Maybe there's something to come tomorrow but for right now I just feel let down. Mostly because they got my hopes up. -Steps down from soap box-

BaldEagleBob
01-04-2008, 07:44 PM
I have no problem resting up and saving credits from 'December shopping madness'.
But I really wish Yavn were more specific in his pronouncements about new items and events. For example:

Look for a new quest on January 11th. With a cool new prize!

No weekend pin series this month.:(

New specials and some old favorites will be available in Emporium after the Gingerbread room building contest ends!

Things like that would be much more helpful.

Perhaps the Trading Card Game that was expected forever ago will "magically" appear this month. Not holding my breath though....

virtualmagicguy
01-04-2008, 07:52 PM
Hey did anybody try the game yet? is it on basic mode still? Let's just hope we can actually get a chance to play the full version game and get goods from that game. But i can be patient though =)

Nope still basic mode. Maybe I'll check the Fantasyland rides to see if pin has changed, or Tomorrowland Hub games to see if there is any change there....

Egad... I find each day of each month of my VMK Life magical.
I enjoy the magic of the wonderful friends and the new experiences I have each VMK day.
I enjoy the magic playing games and earning credits.
I enjoy the magic of helping new ppl find their way around the kingdom.
I enjoy being a part of a magical community like VMKF.

Be blessed by the magic around you. Be astounded by the fresh and new day you have been given.

So for me 1 year, 1 month, 22 days of VMK Magical Days.

Hey did anyone notice this????

THIS WEEKEND ONLY (January 4th, 5th, 6th, 2008)! It's a magical new year, start it off by getting the Fantasyland Magic Mirror card* in the Main Street Magic Shop on Main Street U.S.A. at Disneyland.

The Disneyland Retro Penny Press card* is now available at the 20th Century Music Company on Main Street U.S.A. – only at the Disneyland Resort!

* Card free with any purchase, please limit one per Guest. Available while supplies last.

If anyone is over in DRL and can get some of these, I would love to have one...I'll be at WDW soon...so sad they can have the same offer here...:wave2:

LordieVoldemort
01-04-2008, 08:21 PM
Not at the moment, but since January is magic month, VMK will probably be releasing...well...MAGIC! Hopefully this weekend...

Most likely they'll release about 3 with only 5 days left in January and they'll all be ridicuosly high in pricing such as 20K each and the people who can afford and buy them will be broke. :I

They'll probably give out free Dancing Inferno Magic Pins again just to annoy everybody who wasted Movie Rewards points on them.
