I will never get into the staff games!

[TinkerBelle2992]

I was in line for Snow Spin. Behind 49 people, I thought, That's not too bad. I waited 45 minutes. I get in, wait a few minutes, three people infront of me, and guess what, I disconnect! I am so upset, and frustated, almost to the point of crying, that is the FIRST time since July (when I joined) I got into a Staff Game. Every other time, it won't let me go in line. Now, it won't even let me in VMK! At this point, I will never get Inferno, anything from a Staff Game, or even in a Staff Game!

And, now, I got in, and the game is closed. Go figure. I guess I am not supposed to play staff games.

You totally will you just need some tips!
~Know when a staff game starts
~Log on 3 minutes before it opens
~type in a keyword from the name of the game into the search engine and search every five seconds!
~The minute it pops up....ENTER IT! You will still have 42 minutes before disconnecting and you might enter right away or be behind 4 people!

If you completely miss the opening of the game
~Log on and right away try and enter the line...keep trying.
~If you can't get in, wait a while. Do other things in VMK. Then log off and log back on and keep trying to get in line again.
~You should have enough time from logging on and getting in line of 50!

Good Luck!

I got into a staff game today and I was behind three people and I got dc. I was sort of mad but not really.

It did the same thing to me 3 times today, just as it was my turn to spin - whamo --dc --3 times.

I know, it's not really a big deal, but it is to me. It was the FIRST staff game EVER that I had gotten into. And I was just really upset.

Well, I have all but given up hope on the staff games. I have ussually crashed in line but sometimes I get in and crash in room. I always have trouble moving in the room and since I have never played them am not possitive on directions. I have some friends that are good at it and use the tips given above to get in. I feel it is better if I just leave it for the kids, way to time consuming for me to get frustrated trying. The games look cool and they do a good job. The prizes are nice too, althought it is disapointing to not be able to purchase some of the pins, I was doing the collecting of those but it is pointless if I won't do staff games. I guess with my credits I can try to stock up on stuff people want to trade for. Thanks to the staff for the doing the games even thought they won't see me there much.

Well, I'm the 32 person in line right now for ice bowling. Actually, VMK is making host's games go by much faster now.

And I've noticed that some people who are in the room but not in the line are just there-they're afk. Goes to show you why you get dc sometimes.

I noticed that they put a train car for the line in the game this morning, this really helped the line move and prevented people from cutting in line.

Yea, I wish there was a train or river for the queue in the ice bowling game. I've dc'd twice now at the gate 30 minutes after log-in.

Are you going into the staff rooms with a fresh connection? I don't even try it unless I have just that minute logged on.

I am now waiting for the Everest Tune Train game. I did the above tips and am #9 in line. I am hoping I get to play!
