I'm not sure what's the confusion, Flame???  Aren't they referring to the Host Prize in the Host Teleporter Game?  I don't think they've ever put a limit on the teleporter game.  Also, notice they don't say what exactly is the Host Prize for this particular event.  They could very well be coming up with a different Host Prize that the garden gnome.

In the past, they haven't allowed the same player to win the teleporter game more than once (I've called them on the carpet about it a couple times...with no success).  If you wanted to win again, you had to log a different player on.  However:  if the game featured 3 different prizes, that one person could win each of those prizes once.  If they tried to win the same prize again (or won it by accident), there would be a popup stating that you've already won that prize.  

The announcement of the teleporter game on Tuesday says that the prize will be the garden gnome.  The additional controversy of the last host hunt popup from yesterday saying:

"Read the home page for details on how you can win a different HOST Gnome this week!!! See you there  Hugs from Harmony and Dragon"

...adds an additional question or 2 into the mix.  Tomorrow should be interesting ;)

If I'm mistaken about any of that, please someone feel free to correct me. :waveb:

Guess I never noticed the limit on the Host Teleporter Game in the past because I've never been able to win more than once!  ;)  I think I was confusing the Teleporter Game with the Ride-a-Thons!  Sorry!

Was there a Host Teleporter Game for the Irish Luck magic?  I coulda sworn I won that more than once a night on the same person.   :??:

But then again, I'm old and easily confused  :notme: :lolg: (no offense to those who may be older than me  :bighug: )

Not at all, Disco!  No sorry. :uhuh: It can get very confusing. 

Ironically, I only found out about the limitation with the teleporter games BECAUSE I had a player win a second time...and their prize was denied.  I contacted help, and received a message back saying that you're only allowed to win once on the teleporter game.  It's either an unwritten rule, or it's in the popups that announce the start of the game....you know....the popup that nobody really reads (like me ;) ).  We usually win more than once when we play because Flamanette plays on our other computer.  Better odds, obviously ;)

Actually, I believe that you can only win a prize once per player in both the teleporter and ride-a-thon games.  See the following pics:





Maybe they change the rules from time to time?  Who knows.  I just hope they tell us!  :waveb:

Fun:  honestly can't remember.  I think there was a teleporter game for the gold magic.  Can't remember the details.  Hey...join the confused club!  ;)

Flamanar...now what were we talking about?  :??:

Huh??  :??:  :??:  :??:  :??:  :??:  Where am I??  :??:  :??:   :laugh2:

Fun, I'm right there with you!  ;)

Flame, were the Spring Ride start pieces part of a Ride-a-Thon (or am I confusing VFK with VMK???).  I was able to get more than one, but is that because we had different color rooms to go to???

Now I'm all confused again!   :doh:

Lol. You're confused?  We need a confused party!  :wavet:  We're all in the same boat!

The ride start pieces...something called a "Spring Ride Madness" ride-a-thon I believe.  Sheesh...wish I can remember.  :madder:  I seem to remember being able to get more than one as well...and I remember the different colors in different rooms.

Maybe it's different rules for each game?  Sigh...

Yes, the Luck of the Irish magic was won in a HOST Teleporter game back in February.



For all the other questions here in this thread, take a look like I just did, at the "VFK Guides" section here.  That's how I found out when we got this Irish magic.

For some unknown reason, VFK loves the 3 to 4 pm Pacific time weekday slot.


AGREED!  I'm never thrilled with this time slot.  I try and work around it, mostly because we can get in line and be afk off and on -- thank goodness!  It's 5 pm here for me (Central).  So, yep ... right in the middle of dinner time.   :hmm:

But, I have noticed almost ALWAYS, VFK has Host Hunts, Teleporter games, etc. during this time slot.  Anywhere from 4:30pm - 6pm , for a start time usually.  Not a really good time indeed.


I read the webpage announcement:  "You may win as many times as you can choose the right Teleporter."  As you can win multiple times, as long as you choose the correct winning teleporter.  So, idk... confusing as ever if VFK is changing their own rules then.   :??:


ETA:   Also, I am going to add the specific date to the Subject Line of this thread too, with the beginning time of the event.   ;)

Just a quick FYI:  Fish.i (Mermaid Melusina) has a broken computer and may not be able to do the teleporter game tonight.  

I'm going to try to cover her, but I may not be successful.  If others could keep Fish.i in mind as well by acquiring extras...just in case...that would be awesome.  We should know tonight or tomorrow (I hope) if she was able to get on or not.  Thanks everyone.
