Major League Trading 5/14

[Coasterguy]

Got in the room after 3. I was sitting on the bench waiting to spin and a trade window from Hula pops up. I click OK and Hula puts the Tiki Opening pin in before I even put my offer in. I put a Tiki pin in and we both accept. Didn't have to spin the predictometer. Anybody else get in?

Maybe she's giving everyone the pin to make up for the problems earlier with the room opening. And with all the DCs, maybe she just decided to speed it up. I got in early(32 in queue when it opened), and everyone was spinning still. People were DCing all over the place. I spun an out, and when the trade window poped up, there was the Tiki room pin. Hula is so nice!

Yes, I was lucky to get in there. After I left, I heard from others that do to the problems earlier she decided that since there was not much time left that everyone will get the opportunity to trade for the tiki pin.

How the heck could you get in early? I couldn't even find the room on the list. I tried for over an hour to find Hula's Marjor League Trading Room, and it never shown up on the room list.

This is really great, first time they have it I tried for the whole 3 hours to get in the room, this time the room didn't even show up on the list.

Right now I'm in line for Hula's Stadium but the description doesn't say anything about a game.

The trade event did not start at 12:30 PST (3:30EST) as it should have. There was a trade bug - Hula could not trade in her room - like we have seen in other private rooms. They tried to make it work and then they had to shut VMK down. Around 5:00EST - they opened the trade room up. Somewhere after that time, Hula decided to let everyone trade for the Tiki pin - no matter what they spin on the predictometer.

That all seems very nice, Lately I have been going to these things and Hula seems very fair about things instead of if you get an out - no prize, everyone gets a prize. The other hosts seem to stick to the few win most lose policy. I am not generally all for everyones a winner but if you make it in the room to these events you should be a winner. Unfortunatley I DC'd while in the room waiting to get on the bench so I get no pin, but that is normal for me and the reason I usually don't bother trying.

the one pin actually i want, and hula was kind of giving them away today. great.

Not my luck today. I managed to enter the room and then promptly got the boot because VMK decided to close the down the room (I forget now what the actual message said) Aargh!!!!! It figures!!

Well that was nice, but I didn't have all day to wait around for something to not happen like I did less time. I only waited an hour this time.

I did not have all day either - lucky me - I left after a half an hour and ran to the grocery store. Came back - put stuff away and it opened and I got in line.

I made it in and was sitting on the bench, chatting with the other VMK peeps, and I dc'd. I think that the pin will be back though and we will have more opportunities to trade again.
