Virtual Magic Kingdom Game (Beta Launch)

[bcvprincesses]

What a waste of time. The only parade was everyone stood in a line and follow the leader. Our leader got tired of waiting and left. I can't believe I waited for that.

I finally got in, just as the games ended and the winners were going to be announced.

I am so upset with them(game guys)right now they should have not done this tonight if there was still problems with the game and there must be or this would not have happened....it is so unfair


crying in my wine....

They did this to help test the game. They are still working things out. It is still beta. These things ar going to happen.

sorry I do not think that is a good excuse this time. We should have been told that that is what they wanted to do....I would have been happy to do it.

If they had been up front and honest about things I would not be so upset.

Can you believe it finds the word tree as a naughty word...LOL

It wasn't at the beginning. But:

won -> deleted (can use 'win', but end up sounding like English is my second language half the time)
too / to -> deleted, then reinstated after outcry
tree -> deleted (I now use 'plant')
for -> never taken away
hive -> not yet taken away
sick -> deleted (I now use 'ill')

I'd recommend not trying to use rhymes / homonyms for numbers, because losing the words can be too painful (it was AWFUL without to and too). When people ask if there are "I or too" mickeys in a room, I reply

"There is a mickey" or "There are mickeys".

Yea, I got there an hour before everything was suppose to start. Got on Central Plaza, just chatting right along with everyone else. Then not 10 minutes before it was suppose to start, my screen went WHITE and I was no loger connected to the game.

Then it took me almost 10 minutes to get signed back in...keeped getting the "Your connection has been lost." Then all the sections were FULL! I had to wait almost 10 minutes before I was able to get back on to Central Plaza, and no one was there from first time I was in the area, before I first got booted.

There was just a long line of people and NONE of them were really very helpful. The one in front just keep saying "Everyone get in line!" And everyone else was "WHY!!"

Then the little blue box popped up and told us to go look for some one. But I had no idea if I could leave the Central Plaza area or not. And when I tried to go to Main Street, it said it was too full anyway. So I decided to go to Adventureland, and the little blue boxes keep popping up telling us to look for some one else. But my computer was going so slow, I was just to scared to try anything, thinking that I would be kicked off again.

So I didn't find any one. Did any one here find anyone??

Did every one get kicked off at one point or another or was it just a few of us?

After it was offically over, I thought I would go and play the fireworks game. But it wouldn't let me play. I would wait for the clock to time out, then I would get the black screen then the next thing I know I am in the Fireworks lobby again. Tried this twice! SO, I have just given up for the night. I got my extra points for finding all the charcters, and a made some new music, and played a few tunes. Will just have to try again tomorrow or later tonight. I think it's because their is just so many people on tonight. I saw once whene I was trying to sign in their were over 1,000 people sign on!

I agree the dictionary sucks and we should be able to type numers and months and the word months for crying out loud.

What is that limit all about anyway??

You also can't type hard, you must type difficult. I mentioned a game was hard and it flashed red at me.

I'm so addicted!! Hey,I went to the dis room and lots of disers there talking
about what I don't know!!

This is so you can't give out personal information. The game is geared toward younger kids. It is to keep them safe. And even with that I have still heard from young people that would make you if they were said to your kid.


And cobbler, shouldn't we be scrappin instead of being on vmk? I know I am not getting anything done.

There are many "instances" of each room. When you go into a room, it will put you in an "instance" of that room. It may or may not be the one with your friends.

My connection was not lost, but I got kicked out of the "instance" that I was in and could not get in any where on mainstreet.


It will be interesting to see what happens after this event.

could not agree more. The developer[Yavn]and his staff really need to do something to redeem themselves after this.

I actually am having more problems lately than I was a week ago. With gameplay that is.

Only read the last page of this - hope I'm not repeating.....

PinkTink won an Explorers Tent Room - I went to see it, it was cool!

There was a VMK member there asking questions and taking notes. Most people were polite, one wasn't and PinkTink booted him. VMK_Mocha was very nice and wanted to know all the problems we had. She was writing them down and was very patient with all the new people coming into the room and repeating the questions.

On the other hand, I was disappointed in the beginning. I suspect they had a different plan but people were too confused and they gave up on the parade idea. We stood around and chatted like at the real parks. lol People were saying they were thirsty, I offered gum and "passed it down". My room never really got ugly.

I have a big problem with the pirates game. Once the game is over, I must leave the instance ASAP or get booted. And I can't play level two alone or O get booted.

how many mickeys have you found? I only have 42... Oooohhh I can say the number!!! LOL

That's so great! When I left tonight, she was concerned that she wasn't going to get the prize room, because no one on staff had contacted her yet.

And what a cool prize! I've seen that room before (one of the developers let people peek at it).

I'm so glad it all worked out.

 

[Beherenow]

Congratulations PinkTink (aka Terry S) on winning the Explorer's Tent room. I am glad someone got something nice despite the lack of anything resembling a parade. Maybe the VMK fairy can catch up with the rest of us a different day.

 

[marypops!]

anyone else win anything?
for some reason i asked VMK_Annie if she could get me something because i knew i couldn't come for it
she said she would try

so when the game starts im going to see if anything is new

 

[Terry S]

Thank you eveyone for the well wishes. I just happened to be in the right place at the right time. I acutally would have loved to have one of my kids win the room but I knew by the time I could have gotten them there someone else would have found her.

Also, I wanted to say a huge thank you for all the house warming gifts I received last night. The new room looks awesome because of all my virtural freinds. The generoisity of everyone really brought a tear to my eye last night. Thank you again!

 

[Maleficent2]

I am so Happy for you!

I did not get back into the game after being booted for 2 hours so I missed seeing your room. Hopefully will get to soon. And bring you a room warming gift in tow.

Taking a break today from VMK.

Does anyone know what happened to the parade? I didn't see it, but I did win a haunted mansion room.
