Pirate Month Predictions Anyone Else Agree or Disagree

[MPhins13]

These are just thoughts/predictions I HAVE that may come out this month . If todays Ride-a-Thon prize is the pole tomorrow will be the stool? The bird hat will come out? Sparrow will come out? Skull Rock room will come out? Pirate Magic will come out. Like I said these are thoughts I have I was wondering what others think or have other thought of other items

I would say yes to everything except bird hat and sparrow suit

The reason for no bird hat is although vmk is releasing the bar stool today they need to be careful releasing the Pirate Q I'm sure the VMK pirate pins people buy in the park is a big money draw for VMK if they go and release half of the Pirate Q in the game there would be no point in people going to buy the pins unless you really want the pin. But I believe it would greatly reduce the people buying them in the park if you could get them for free in the game.

The sparrow suit I just don't see them selling although they may promote the pirates plunder game agian.

I think it would be worse than that. People who paid real money for those things would be livid. Livid enough for somebody to even sue. That wouldn't bode well for the game.

i think firewalls will come out.

i think firewalls will come out.

Similar to the flip hat re-release, and the inferno magic re-release on DMR, that would cause panic in the streets and waves of people quitting VMK, but I do have to admit firewalls are really cool furniture.

 

[steamboatpete]

I hope and doubt that firewalls will come out, for the same reason I offered before. People who paid money to buy the pirate quest stuff at $14 per two would be furious, and it only takes one pissed off customer to file a CLRA (California Consumer Legal Remedies Act, Civil Code sec. 1750 et seq.) class action and all hell breaks loose. Imagine the discussion at Disney: "So we offer this game for free and we're getting sued for $10 million? Wilco Tango Foxtrot?" The Disney folks are smarter than that.

Ev

remember, the stool post is just a stick until you get the top of it

 

[PrincessPaisley]

Apparently not, they released the Bar Stool Pole..

Ev

I know we get both the stool and the pole when entering the codes, but the card only pictures the stool.

I couldn't find a picture of the new card, but here is the old one:

Why are people making such a big deal about a pole anyway. I wasn't lucky enough to get the stool card, but if I did the stool is what I would have been excited about.

Ev

We already knew about the pole. The release of the pole was what prompted the discussion of whether they would be foolish enough to release the seat, too.

Wilco Tango Foxtrot?

I may be a blonde, but

I bought several boxes of the pins and I'm not too upset with the rerelease in the host quest today. The items were given out in a park quest too, so many players got them without directly paying for them anyway. If I recently bought the pins, I probably would not be happy with VMK. And a few coming back in a quest kiosk does add that many to the game.

It seems nothing is safe from rerelease with the way this year has been going. It does take the fun out of trading though. And it no longer makes sense to buy up numerous items before they are retired because VMK may release it again a few months later. I guess we won't have to spend as much time accumulating credits to buy extras. We'll only need to buy what we need. Initially, I thought VMK was trying to lure players to spend more time in the game to earn enough for all the new things and getting extras for future trades, but with rereleases that theory goes out the window.
