I think the crates are haunted.

I think the crates are haunted.

I agree and I think all of vmk is haunted with all this crashing and monster lag and crazy stuff going on! Happy Halloween to us

I think the crates are haunted.

Didn't something like this happen when they released a certain pin? Calendar if I remember right...which I probably don't

Oh I can see it now...
Yavn and caffdawg fighting over trade able or not trade able. (I wonder who is winning )

 

[TikiKrissy]

I actually won one!!! That's after playing 3 games in which other people bailed out when they realized they wouldn't win. I wish that they could fix THAT, or make the crates winnable from other games. Anybody wanna join me in writing to Contact Us?

Non-tradeable? Well, I guess I won't be getting any, as I can't play mansion with this computer.

 

[Jasonbobdude]

Crates are tradeable, I was able to select them to go into the trade window and it also says so in the item info box.

 

[cteddiesgirl]

The crates seem to be random and are non-tradeable.

Arg! Why are they non-tradeable?

Crates are now tradeable as of 3:50 ET! If you were logged into VMK before that time, you need to login again in order for the crate to be changed to tradeable on your account.

Good!

I have bought 2 of the USB mice. Both of which a month or so after I got them just stopped working. I'm thinking of getting a Blue Tooth capable mouse but they are not cheap and I'd really rather not pay about $50+ for one that will quit working in a month or so.

Hmm.
My Logitech Optical mouse has lasted for about a year so far.

I had that happen to me today also. I do understand that some people dc but it's interesting how it's been happening when I happen to be ahead so I'm guessing those people decided to quit. I wish something could be done about this.

Even though winning the orange crates are a great extra bonus, it does bug me when people leave. I noticed the same thing, people started leaving again. It was interesting how people rarely dc'ed during the past few days when everyone was scrambling for credits but now suddenly people are "DCing" left and right ...

Even if those people don't win the crate, they're still forfeiting their credits ... it just doesn't make any sense to me at all.

Yeah, it makes me sick. I can't even finish a game. Actually, I finished ONE game because I was the only one that didn't leave from my team... and of course I still lost! I could never just bail out on the opposing player. Even Community Leaders have been leaving!

However, I'm disgusted to say that I actually DID get the white crash box three times today while playing Mansion! In all these cases, I went ahead and typed that I'd crashed and that I was sorry. I do hope that the players on my team saw it.

I really really wish that they'd do the crates like they did for the ice cube chairs before, that you could win them for playing other minigames too. Or have them in Pirates Treasurechests and/or the Sword in the Stone!! I'm sad to say that I think that this is bringing out the worst in MOST people.

Woot

Another great prize from the game and orange for Halloween Thank You VMK


Thank you Rolls , Hope you are having a great time

. Even Community Leaders have been leaving!

Yup saw it my self. Even found the CL in the lobby cause I exited right away I was so ticked. In one way I am glad they are getting rid of the CL program. Sad for the ones that are really good but glad ofr the ones that just used it as a title to look good. Never like the way it was set up.

The easy way to work around this is to play with people you trust and know won't quit on you when they are losing. I have had people dc, but by chosing who I will play with, I have played many successful games and some very "friendly" games.

Unfortunately, that can be difficult to do. Especially when many people have already teamed up with others. Or you no one else happens to be on at the same time you are.

I also cannot get into a group of more than 4 total or I will crash. My computer does better with 1 on 1 games.

So, many times you get stuck with who's available in the lobby at the time.
Sometimes you can get a good player, many times not.

I did manage to get 4 crates last night.

May I ask what type of computer your using [Mac or PC] and what type of mouse it is? [USB or Blue Tooth?] lol

 

[Goofy05]

Players quitting when they are on the losing side has always been a problem with the mansion game. I try not to be so quick to judge, though, as I am one of those players who really does crash in that game....a LOT! Definitely try talking to the other team members about alternating wins. You may find some willing to try that. Otherwise, hook up with a friend and win every other game.

 

[HowWeird]

just as an fyi, I use the Logitech G5 Laser mouse which is a USB corded mouse and it's really great. a little bit on the pricey side but if you're looking for a good mouse that won't let you down, I would highly suggest that one.

as for the people that disconnect rather than stay just for the credits, BOO on them! and not the BOO'd by HowWeird kind of boo. a bad boo.

I played last night and it was funny how the one time I won, I got the 2k bonus rather than an orange crate!! talk about luck!
