Wow!

And as usual, we have the hordes of ppl camped out waiting for the doors to magically swing open!  And also as usual, all we have is a general "it will open today"....

I was just on about 5 minutes ago; NO it is not opened yet, and the kids were all fighting over how great "Twilight" is....

OK, just came from there again......1:10pm EST

NOT open yet, didn't really expect it to be!  Of course there is still a crowd waiting.  Oh well, I will check back again later.  I wonder if they wil  put out any furnish to go with the new area?  Or maybe another quest item of Tiki-ness??

Anyone else have these two happenings?

I was in fairy mode when I enterered the splastastic esplanade, when the blue dots faded away, I was in my bathing suit without having asked for it?  (I changed in public? OMG!  Glad I have feathers to at least cover me!) :lolp:

But, along with that oddity, as I entered the first pool area, I clicked to go to the pool, but my avatar chose to walk into the changing room and came out with my street clothes on? :lost:

That's 'normal' (not really, but it happens to me, too).  Got some extra feathers you can lend me?  :shy:

Fairy will go away when you enter the esplanade.  No fairies in the pool area.  LOL.

The changing clothes thing is weird.  They need to fix that.  My character did the same thing.  Was already in suit, clicked on the pool and into the changing booth I went.  They also need to have a marker you click on to ensure you click on the changing rooms correctly. 

BETTER YET:  just have everyone be in a bathing suit when they enter the area and leave it like that.  Nix the changing rooms altogether.  When you leave the pool area, auto regular clothes time.  You reading this, VFK?  :)

Awesome to watch those if you get a chance, Fun.  I was very young and only remember bits and pieces of the horses swimming. 

And you're right!  Flame doesn't need any feathers (they just burn up and are useless anyways). :lolg:

Flamanar..... :tan:

Excuse me?!?  I'll have you know sir, that my feathers are NOT useless. :uhuh:   Due to innumerable episodes in VMK with people using their Inferno magic too close to me, I worked it out with the Emporium, to keep me supplied with feathers.  I was needing to re-order new feathers with them so often, they offered, for a larger fee, to keep me supplied with non-flammable feathers.  (I bought them out just before VMK closed, so I thankfully have more, for the occassional players that still love to pluck one or two.)

They are also NOT useless, as I do need to protect my modesty, thank you very much!  :duck_ride:
