Title: Queues are now live in game - 10/4

There is now a queue system in place for rooms.  Hopefully this will make it easier to get into the harder to enter rooms without having to click over and over...

If we now have Queues, does that mean we can play pool? Right here in River City, how cool!

Haha!  :laugh2: That would be fun, but no pool that I heard of.  Rumor has it that the Fireworks game will be out by Halloween though.

I have noticed that since they announced that the shell game is much more active in both Adventureland Bazaar and Captains Quest Quarters, I have not been able to access either room, for them always being full of players.

So, the queue being active overnight sounded wonderful.  I again attempted to access one of those two rooms, did indeed get into a queue (at position 20 - way too long for me) so I chose the option of the pass.

If you remember, the pass allows you to go on with playing VMK, while you wait for your turn to arrive.  Sadly, that feature said it was not working.  :cry:   So, that would mean, I had nothing to do but stare at the black screen with the queue window on it, until I was admitted to the room.  :madder:  Clammers don't give up their room so easily.

too bad they cannot set up time limits when in those rooms (temporarily, of course) where you automatically get kicked out after a certain amount of time.  just to give others a chance

Interesting thought!  They already have that "If you don't move within 20 seconds, you will be booted from the room" warning message.  (I got it at least twice while waiting in queue for Adventureland Bazaar a few hours ago.)   That warning is geared to a specific player obviously on a timer.  So, wonder if it would be a big deal to apply that programming to like you said, give a time limit in the room?

Btw, while I was in that room, a girl typed "Why are you all still here? Doesn't anyone need to go for lunch?".  :laugh2:
