I am hoping for a one time use carpet magic!!! Not!!!  ::) Can you imagine getting so many 1X magic pin expiring in 30 days!  :lol:

1x magic pins, don't get me started :o  I would really be happy to not have the coral magic as a key prize anymore.  I know mine expire before I use them all.  For unorganized people like me, we need some type of an alert that says "Hey smarty pants.  You have 2 coral magics expiring today.  Use them".

rofl. You think you are bad let me tell you this story I usually play pirates under a mule. Anyway I like to wear the key pins and go at the end of the night or next morning to cash in. I dc in a game and decided to go catch ghosts under my main. Anyway I totally forgot I have played the mule for few days and let 12 keys expire on me. Now that is sad!! :crazy:

I checked My credit at close, and logged into home page about 2:30am EST and they have already deducted the credit for the give-a-gift.  Unfortunately, It appears off by 3 gifts...so one can assume 3 were not delivered.  Sorry to those 3 people, I did gift a few not on my list, and I did gift 4 staff members so the issue had to be one of the later, or a type-o  Merrychristmass to all!  I could have kept gifting but just had to pick a point to stop.

Thanks Daz, for pointing out we could already tell via the home page!  :thumbs:  I logged in and found that in my case, all my gifts should be delivered, as the credits shown are exactly what I expected after the gifting!  Yay!

You don't seem happy about the pinkness of this item.   It just shows never set your hope to high in this game when depending on Yavn and his crack staff.   I think the item is ok, I think more different colors of items is good pink would not be my first choice but I am sure many I gifted are happy with it.  Would have expected some new extrodinary unseen item by its billing, but VMK always overbills there coming attractions...and they were doing so well with the Gingerbread theme....reallly expected gingerbread. ::)

I'm not so thrilled with the pink, but my daughter is so excited so I guess that's worth it.  I really was hoping it wouldn't be another candy cane.  We already had 4 colors, why another?  I was thinking a gingerbread table or chair but I guess I shouldn't look a gift horse in the mouth.  It's the thought that counts, right ;)

Ditto your comment Kat for me!

But at the same time, I am overwhelmed again this year, at just how many wonderful sweet friends I do have!  I cherish them all, so I shall most certainly make another holiday room around them, as I did last year, and be happy for them!  :grouphug:

Well Duck you know how I feel about the color pink.  I abhor it.  I loathe it.  I detest it, am repulsed by it, and quite frankly, to the person who decided upon pink for the color I say, "A pox upon your first born.. you ugly wart on a salamander's tongue!  May you forever sprout  :pb: from your arse."

But to my sweet friends who gifted me I say thank you for being so thoughtful and for thinking enough of me to spend so many credits.  It is for this reason that I will keep and cherish every single one of my fantastically fugly pink candy canes.

Oh how i wish it was a new item, not another color of a previous item that we already have in 4 colors.  Oh well, the entire "give something that you dont know what it is to people that won't know you sent it and we will take 500 credits" concept hits me as odd in too many ways to even begin to discuss.  So, I'll just say...

I know I spelled everything right.  I spent my very last credit to gift some friends (sad but true - I wish I was better at fireworks), and still have some credits left - not enough to do much with but enough to know not all of my gifts went through.  However, I must say, I signed on to discover more gifts in my inventory than I ever even dreamed I would receive. 

If you sent me one - thank you for warming my heart and making me smile.  Happy Holidays everyone!

First, thanks to all those that gifted me.  Agian, it is true this is not the item we all would have chose ourself but then 500 credit doesn't buy much anymore in vmk.  The only other option we had was buy individual gifts for our friends, which I know some did.  If you chose this option you could do it many ways - buy the gift-a-gift in bulk and distribute, but you still don't know the item. You could buy whatever item in bulk or individually select items.  I am sure some did this.  I personally could not have sent nearly as many this way timewise it was just not possible and the buying could not be done after hours. If you have ever traded with me you know it is almost a painfull experience for me and usually ends in having to crash out due to being locked in the trade.  I am working on some inventory solutions but I just don't have time and when I do I prefer to be playing not sorting.  I think the event and the item were fairly similar in nature to last year so really not to surprised by the item the screw ups or anything about it, I would say I am satisfied it was a good option for me.  I might try to work it out different next year, or maybe they will actually fix the issues - yeah right...again i just really have to apprieciate everyone that thought of me, I think it is great, and admit it you would not want to be without one of these candy canes -even though they are pink.

On a side note as I check my other accounts that sent some to each other to be collected at a later time - but before Yavn kills them and I am finding that many of thiers never arrived - i will have to look at the credits too now on these so i did have more then 3 problems maybe 10 still only about 10% eror and I can't be sure it was all their fault and received plenty from friends :)

So, kat, how do you REALLY feel about it?

Seriously, I'm right there with you in my dislike for pink.  One of the hosts told us that it would be something we'd never seen before.  Although that is technically true (I've never seen a pink candy cane, unless it was a very old, stale candy cane that wound up in the ornament box by accident and found two years later), it's just a variation of an overdone theme.  Arg!

As to your curses, my favorite all-time Yiddish curse is: Er zol vaksen vi a tsibeleh, mit dem kop in drerd!
 (translation:  May you grow like an onion, with your head in the ground and your feet in the air.  Not entirely clear on what that means, but it's quite the picture!)

Okay I know you aren't aware of all the 'goings on' of the AlphaMale club no.me.  But I do need to say that Kat and I need to take lessons from TigressJewel and one other (heavens, not on this board) that almost had their VMK ability to play removed for pole dancing for the Alpha Males!  :lol:  Now THERE were some dancing moves!  :lol:

Jewel?  You up to it girl friend?  :cool2: Teaching Kat and I how to pole dance so we can help the no.me in his room?  ::)

For anyone that may have credits left that should have been taken by the "give a gift" fairy:

Yesterday, in Hula's party room she shared that some gift requests have yet to be handled.  If you remember, the cut off date that was published was a date that did not exist: Sunday, December 23rd.

Well, it seems that VMK meant Friday, BUT - any gifts that were ordered Saturday and Sunday will still be delivered.  However, they have not been processed yet.  They are working on obtaining that list.  So, if you ordered any gifts on Sat. or Sun., those credits have yet to be taken and the gifts, not yet delivered - but they will be. :)
