Is it just me, or is this precisely the type of event VMK should NOT have VMK pass running? The line for the teleporter events always zipped along and was fairly easy to get into. This, IMO, is a bit of a disaster. I've been in line for almost an hour and a half. I'll be at 250 one minute, 289 the next, and then 254. How exactly is that possible? Is it because of the system adding standby guests? I'm now behind 78. If that's even accurate. Isn't it also kind of impossible in teleporter games now to try again unless you're in the room and lose very early? The logic for this escapes me. Makes sense with trade events, regular games, and the Yard Sale (sort of... only a certain number of people would get in anyway, even with an unlimited queue), but running it with a teleporter game doesn't. I'm assuming they can't just turn it on and off and it is a feature that stays running.
But still... Sheesh. Reminds me of the disastrous waits at Winnie the Pooh in MK once they added FastPass.
I got lucky and got in early but I'm curious was anyone in line at the end when the game closed? I'm curious if they let everyone go through or if you were just booted out.
PirateEmery and I made it in at the end, and everyone was moving quickly - we were right around 8:30 though and I saw Hula telling someone that some people in line may not make it in.
I managed to get in twice. Lost the first time, won the second. Finally I got a snow rug, after all this time. Somehow I managed to get Sparrow, Stitch, and Inferno before I ever got a single snowrug. hehe
I got in right early also ...and tried with another one of my characters...was wondering if I would get in...since it would be so close to the end? But when the time was up it didn't it came up saying same thing..."Not accessable atfer finishing the wait"!
So guess now if you in there at *:30 you don't get in! But at least a snow rug!
