Can somebody from VMK please tell me how I'm supposed to tell my DD and all her friends how pretty much impossible it is to do this quest? And what am i supposed to tell them when they ask me, why do they make it so hard if its supposed to be for kids too?? I think I can finally say I've almost had enough of VMK.

Not that I expect a reply that would really make any sense to me, but I just dont get it.

These items are VIRTUAL right?? Just making sure.

Thanks for reading the rant. :sad2:
 
That's the problem with VMK. They claim (or at least they used to claim) to be a game aimed at the tween crowd, but design things impossible for them to do. I say there should have been multiple quests going on. Have one of those great items be the prize for each quest. Then, maybe everyone could at least attain SOMETHING. Have the best prize be for the crazy pirate score. ((HUGS)) to you and DD.
 
i say they should have just made this quest easier. Like EVERYONE said, vmk you've done a great job releasing this cool stuff, too bad nobody will get it.
 
I agree.

My kids and I have discussed this to death. I think the vast majority of people who will win this quest are adults. Adults who have the freedom to discuss and organize a plan outside VMK. (against VMK values, imho)

I don't want my kids setting up accounts on the internet, trying to organize 8 players for pirates, sorry. Just look at this board...just about every post is organizing a 575 team.

Haunted Mansion's 75 ghosts is certainly obtainable, and you don't have to win to get the required ghosts. Jungle Cruise is difficult, but again, you don't have to step outside the game to win.

My biggest beef is that the pirate score encourages scamming, booting, and against values play.

Then the darn game can't handle the crush of players. Just not good planning any way you slice it.
 

When I first opened the Q yesterday and saw the prizes I knew this would be difficult.. I mean really look at what you get, the credits alone are 75,000! But then to add things like the silver ears and Minnie :scared1: ! It makes no sense to really make the questions difficult why? Bc even if someone wasn't kind enough to post the answers we'd still find a friend on here or somewhere else that would pm or message them to us.. So the only thing they can do is make the tasks difficult.. I have np with difficult.. I'm always up for a challenge.. But other than the ghosts the other 2 tasks are darn near impossible!! ( I truly feel for the kids who play the mini games but omg the kids that don't can just forget it.. Really no fair VMK ) So now my family will just have to deal with me losing my mind for a second day in a row.. If the lobbies are anything like yesterday, I feel really sorry for my boss on Monday bc tho my person may be there all my attention will be focused on the task at hand----- The dreaded # 16... Btw just in case, anyone available on Monday to work on this?? :laughing: pm me!!
 
you make such good points Halloween :)


I dont know why VMK would even make this? and who has the time to actually spend 1-8 hours doing a quest. Some of us have school/work/other things to do then sit around trying to finish a virtual quest to get virtual items.
 
Well I guess vmk figures 8-14 yr olds can certainly play the game but they mention nothing about including them in quests or other perks. Very sad for sure. Then ppl wonder why these same little dudes hang out in day care rooms, animal rooms or whatever. What else are they supposed to do?

OMG! Look at the craziness this has caused!! Seriously, take a look at the boards! Everyone is frantic! Can we just lower the score of pirates please! LOL
 
I have to agree with all. My daughter is 10 and we tried yesterday and she cannot do it. She went in her room and laid in bed and cried for an hour. So very disappointing that this is a kids game and kids cannot get the loot.

You would think VMK was giving a trip to WDW as hard as they have made this.
 
I think I'm the only one who even noticed the easier quest. They put out two of them for a reason, the difficult one is so insanely difficult for the insanely great prizes. Are we going to see the new items released in stores? I think so, I feel like the prizes that aren't out yet are just to give some people them before others.
 
This quest was made for the inner circle of VMK players. It is a way to make the richer, richer and give them somethings that are rare. They have complained to the staff friends for months because there rare items came out and this is a way for VMK staff to pay off there friends. By grandson has given up, after hours explaining that it is impossible for him to complete. Thanks again staff for taking care of your friends. (the ones that get all the perks)
 
They have said it is a very difficult quest. They have said that few will finish. From what I hear, so of those who have finished include kids.

So far, my team and I have put in around 15 hours working on this quest. You have to earn this 1, there is no easy way through it.
 
This quest is so messed up. I thought it was an individual quest, but it turns out to be a team quest.

Thx for nothing again vmk. Can we go ahead and have dreams month the rest of the year also?
 
If they wanted to make it fair to all players they should have made it a cumulative score of say 2000 .. may take people a while but everyone could eventually get there on their own instead of basicly letting people win in order so everyone can make it .. to me .. letting each person win is not a game .. its fixed , not complaing though about that because it seems the only way people will get through this task

Thats what I mean....15 hours to get the virtual items?? How many of your team were kids? And how many completed it? I think i heard you also completed the quest, and congrats! I know its hard and thats great if you can do it, but many of pleyers wont complete it or even come close, thast what i was complaining about. I just dont think its fair, bc the game tasks seem very unreasonable.

I would have minded 100 tasks, as long as they could have been achieved.

It's not fixed, it's a very difficult challenge. They have said from the start that very few will pass. It is meant to be very difficult and not something that everyone will win
