I've heard 2hrs is common. But I wouldn't know, as this is the first time I've even been on for one. At least I got in line for once, hehe, but doubt I'll make it in.
This was my first one too, but at 193 with only 10 minutes to go I guess I'm not getting in. At only 2 hours it seems that unless you get in the queue right when it starts, forget it.
I have heard that sometimes the teleporter event has gone for over 3 hours -- which I was hoping for, and sadly it didn't happen that way last night.
I also agree with you too, Dreamin -- in that if you don't get in the queue right away, you're pretty much out of luck of even getting in the room. VFK queues are starting to remind me that of VMK, in that lines would be over 900 with no chance of ever hitting the room.
It would be nice it they posted a schedule for all of you. Or even if they sent out an in game alert each day that players could see when they sign in showing daily events.
Yup, Agree -- Happy. VFK has not posted Host event times/days since the Purple Pumpkin -- which was October. It certainly would be nice if they would. The game alerts they send out are great,
IF you're actually in VFK at the given time. Because like everyone has said previously, if you're not in the game even when they open the room, you have no chance of even getting in. The Queue fills up literally to like 900+ people I think within minutes.
So, I did some looking around to see what the Pots Of Gold are going for - cough cough - on other said Forums (left titles out of course, many already know whom).
Thought I would share with you all what I've seen. Because I'm sure many of us are wondering, what these things are going for if we want to trade for them. I don't even own half of the stuff they are looking for!
Makes me extremely proud that we are an awesome community here, that helps each other out when we can. I have never set my eyes on a trade thread of the likes below, EVER here. Kuddos to our awesome bunch of NoBS'ers!
I wish everyone Luck this Month! Go NOBS GO!
~~ I don't know how on earth these people ended up with even multiple Pots of Gold, when they were just released for 2 hours yesterday -- and many can't even get in the room?!? ~~ So anyway, here are some REAL trade threads I found elsewhere. Not sure if an item that's supposed to be available for the entire month, could possibly be worth retired items.
But, I guess that's the opinion between the traders themselves, and what it's worth to them.
