VMK Closing - it's back!

[DaraAllen]

Sure, as soon as Fin puts some "pink tikis" in her quest, VMK goes down

I was wondering why I would stand in place walking or every time I tried getting on the monorail no one could get on

Only the 11th day of February and how many days has VMK gone down ??

Lyn

Pink tikis? I saw 1,000 credits as only prize.

 

[VirtuallyMe]

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!

It takes me forever to get on, was on question 23 when it closed. I hope she is not changing her answer for 21 it would be terrible to close it for that. Not like you have to go back and play an mini game.

And what's up with you new orleans that put a plastic baby in a cake. That was the last one I chose cause I thought it was morbid? I am sure there is a very good reason behind this.

Hey better yet... the plastic baby represents the baby Jesus...

But yeah that is what gets baked in there- some bakeries do a surprise solid gold or silver baby as a way to make people come to their stores...

And as I posted elsewhere- traditionally it was a coin or a bean that would get baked in the cake and on 12th night (January 6th- the 12th night of Christmas) whoever got the piece of cake with the coin or bean would be the king...

FYI- Topsy Turvey Day in Huntchback of NotreDame is also part of the Mardi Gras Tradition- where the peasants would be the "kings and queens" for the day- of course now to be a King or Queen of Mardi Gras you have to be pretty wealthy-

Oh and now getting the baby is good/bad luck- good luck because that is what they just say... and bad because the tradition is - whoever gets the king cake baby has to buy the next king cake- those things are eaten all the time in offices and school snacks...

I wonder if the DIS filter works for Italian curses? Or Yiddish? Hmm, should I test it?

I think you can safely test it by typing the words and clicking preview post. Then you can see if the words are filtered out. Even if you could post them, using them still might not be the best idea.

whats going on with vmk does anyone know???

It's the normal Sunday closing of VMK.

Mabey this is related to Yavn and staff moving VMK Headquarters? Just a Guess!!!

Maybe. But this has happend every sunday for the last few weeks.

I know diz, I was being sarcastic? silly? funny? I don't want the wrath of Mal on me! Been there, done that, have the t-shirt!

SUNDAY! SUNDAY! SUNDAY!

The not so all new Host Quest Freeze-a-thon.

See VMK friends walk in place.

Watch as people talk about not being able to move to another room.

Hear the screams, as once again, people are not able to finish the Quest.

Thats right, it SUNDAY! SUNDAY! SUNDAY!

See the Black Screen of Death.

See the White Crash Monster Screen

See the Sorry you've been disconnected, we are closed, we will be closing message.

This.

SUNDAY! SUNDAY! SUNDAY!

I just have to say i do like your Verse of Sunday It would not be so funny if it where not so very true!

 

[DaraAllen]

There's over 4500 players on so maybe it's back?

 

[PirateBell]

You got that right...this is really getting to be rediculous..
It freezes up on me in the Emporium and then says its closing! then couple mins later it gives me the credit of 24 and so I go to do 25 and it closes down on me!!! ARRRRRRg and now it is the BSOD! I don't understand how this keeps happping! Yes on my last one! Then they shouldn't have a quest if they can't do it without freezing up! I just can't believe it!

So any guesses how long this week they will be down..I saying... til eleven right before the quest its do to be over! Thats the way it usually been going!

I thought it was for 1000 credits did she add piki tikis???? Did i miss something?

In the "It Takes Two" game on Thursday, Fin had said that she was loading Pink Tikis into the quest machine. I am hoping that she would not say that and then not do it

Maybe the winner get 1,000 credits and everyone else gets a pink tiki

I don't think you get in too much trouble unless you actually post anything. Maybe we should figure out how to get the wrath of Mal on whoever broke VMK and the people who haven't fixed it yet. Then we'd be safe and maybe get VMK back faster too.

What I want to know is, how does the plastic not melt in the oven?



Come back VMK!

 

[ChipNDale]

Maybe. But this has happend every sunday for the last few weeks.

Ok so they are switching a server over at a time on sunday when alot of people are playing so they know its working. again Just a Guess. I think they could and should do any moving during the Closed Time. i mean your Closed.!!!! But This seams to happen every Sunday. Every Weekend Every time i want to play a Host event/game/quest, or earn credits!

 

[DaraAllen]

Ok so that's wrong! How can the home pages say there are over 4500 players online and I get the "VMK is closed" blue box.

 

[Garizle]

Dare, Do you knwo how long it is closed for?

 

[Pirate-Emery]

I literally just tried getting on before checking the DIS.

Says its:

a. Closed from 10pm to 7am
b. YOU'VE BEEN DISCONNECTED, FOOL!





I'll go do something, and come back in an hour/ hour and a half

 

[Belle1997]

Well If I bit off baby Jesus head I am sure I would not have good luck for the rest of the year.

I will have to do more research on this Mardi Gras as now I am confused. First you bake baby Jesus kinda religous symbol and then girls take of their tops to get more beads. extreme from one thought to the other.

Well that is all I know about Mardi Gras what I see on TV

Well, I wouldn't post anything bad in any language because there are too many geeks on this board who would find the Google translation tool and translate what I said. And trust me, I know some Italian that would make a sailor blush.

Now back on topic:

I want my VMK and I want it now!

The Wrath of Mal Has Fixed VMK before So Mabey He Can AGAIN!
Lets Go MAL send our your Flying Monkeys

 

[DaraAllen]

No Garizle, no magic eight ball for us leaders. We are stuck, just like you!

She was probably loading them in another quest - this one is 1000 credits for everyone.
