Fireworks - sent back to lobby :(

[AmberDaze]

Is anyone else having this problem? I know a few who are - it's so frustrating!

 

[Kasiks]

I have the problem too ..

I'm having the same problem. After being sent back five different times, I finally gave up.

At first I was able to get in and play a few games but now it just keeps sending me back to the lobby. So frustrating! I hope they get it fixed because I'm trying to get enough credits to get bat magic!

I walked away for a few hours after my earlier frustration (HM was kicking me out too) and I finally got to play two games, after being kicked back twice. Not sure how long my luck will hold.

happinen to me to

It held for those two games. Haven't gotten in since.

Has anyone been able to play fireworks this evening? No luck here.

I played once when I first logged on, but after eight more attempts and getting sent back each time, I decided it was time to move on to Pirates... then I promptly got kicked out of that game too. So I got mad and decided that gathering 1,980 credits in one night was good enough.

Fly, I played about 9 games in a row, and then I guess vmk decided that I'd had enough so now I'm being sent back to the lobby again lol. Arg!

Amber, I was playing three of the same games with you.....thanks for letting me win one of them . The last game it kept "flickering" on me so I stopped. I wound up missing a few because of the flicker, but I thought stopping was better than wasting my time playing only to have problems right at the end. Hope you can get in again.

I had this problem from around 9:30pm EST Saturday until maybe midnight Sunday (well, technically Monday). I've only had the chance to endure the almost 2 hour load time for VMK and buy a few things so far (I have class from 10am to 10pm; actually drove back home during my lunch break -- a very long drive, let me tell you -- just to get VMK loaded ahead of time for tonight! ). I'm about to try again in a few minutes, so I'll let y'all know how it goes for me.

I am sooo glad you were in one of the games where I didn't stop! So sorry about that. What's your vmk name again?

I think I figured something out that works for me.

If I joined a game during the countdown, I would almost always get sent back to the lobby. So, I tried waiting until a game started and then joined as one of the first people in the next game. Most of the time, I would get into the game.

It worked for me 90% of the time.

Hmm, maybe I'll try that. Got into a game first thing this morning, and haven't had any luck since.

Amberdaze you are so great at fireworks. I bow down to you, what's your secret? I was playing a game with you the other day. My highest so far is a little over 250k

I am 4 for 4 this morning at successfully getting into fireworks using my technique. The games have very few players: from 5 to 10 in each game.

Aww, thanks so much...but there are many others who are much better than me. Back in April I finally broke 200,000 and by the end of that month I reached 240,000. Practice really makes a difference, so keep practicing!

I tried, but it didn't work. Drat. At least I was able to play a few games this morning. Hopefully I'll be able to play again later.

This has happened 3 times to me, I found to break the cycle all I have to do is refresh VMK. After being booted 6 consecutive times I decided to relog...lo and behold first time in, I got a game. Happened again, I refreshed immediately after one boot, and got in first time again.

Try it, certainly won't hurt
