host game

[ash410]

ok, so after reading all of you guys talk about these host games, i decided, hmm why not give it a try.. lets just see if i get in, then see if i win. So i did. i got in line of 122.. waited i dunno how long maybe about an hour, and get in to find out she just closed the gate to new people. I am kind of bummed. I have never tried before, and my first time wasnt a good experience. not because of dc, or not spinning right but because they closed it quite a while after i was in line, and there is no way to tell that they closed it while in line. sad day on VMK for me

Well I got in line at number 67 and thought that is good should make it through. Wrong I was in for 2 minutes and crashed. I do not understand how this crashing works. I was 130 and managed to trade a pin with staff. Now I am 67 and crash even faster. Does not make much sense does it.

Yeah they definitely need to come up with something to notify the people in line like that-

I mean- they do have to close the rooms and someone will be the one in the magic spot to be the one not entered into the game after a long wait- but it does make it hard to be waiting- I would suggest that the game go until the closing time- so those who make it in the room in the last minute of the posted time for game get to play- even if it means another hour of the game

But they need to post this- so if you don't make it into the room before this time you know to drop out of line and quit waiting.

I made it in last night like 30 minutes or so before the scheduled end of the game- but staff must have gotten dc'd- and it was fun to just watch everyone slowly disappearing- seemed when I was in there it was stepping on the sand carpet on the crate that was the point of doom for most lol- but we were all hopeful that staff would return before we got dc'd-- no suc luck last night

I think advice given by some- of the number being at or close to 100 people or less when you get in is smart- you could probably go up to 150 depending on what your usual dc time is and what the game is- some of the games run a lot slower than others just because of the nature of the games.

And yes I think it would be nice if we could have more games running- but I fear people would just load in mules in different lines to try to play...
