ROTFLMAO even then we couldn't get in.  :rofl1:  I saw his chat bubble as he raced by a room I was in, but I was frozen up and only saw blue pixie dust.  :'(

This really does go VERY slow.  VFK needs to rethink this process.  While it's nice to sit on Santas lap and talk to him...each person takes around 5+ minutes!!  This, of course, isn't counting the times he has technical problems and needs to reboot or something.  This is WAY too big a job for 1 or even 2 people to do.  You can imagine the odds of SO many people getting in to see him are very thin.  Maybe they could do an NPC Santa?  That would speed things along...although it would also do away with the 'human' element...still, everyone would have a MUCH better chance at getting the hat and scarf then.  Just a thought.

GL all.

Yep, really.  I had posted, (probably elsewhere *cough cough*) that I thought it would be nice to have an option for players....seeing the Santa to get scarf and hat   - or - of entering a host ride (quick in/out) to get the scarf and hat.  Those who don't care if they see Santa or not could hop the ride; hopefully leaving room for everyone else to get the kids and/or their own main in to see Santa.

Awesome idea, Fun.  A way to 'bypass' Santa just to get the new scarf/hat would rock.  Let the little kids sit on his lap and talk him up.  Ok...some big kids, too ;)

This is like last year.  You had to interact with Santa to get the prize.  I felt kind of silly which I why I asked for world peace!  I mean what else could I say?  I really wanted to say let's get on with this, I have other things to do and I just wasted about an hour waiting to get a virtual prize!  ;)  :laugh2:

So, I vote for Fun's suggestion!!  :thumb:

I missed seeing Santa last year, and seems that I may miss him again this year.  :lolg:
It would definitly be easier to see him if were an NPC or we got the items through a Host Ride.

I thought of world peace; but I kept picturing Sandra Bullock in Miss Confidentiality movie....so I went with a different line.  :lolg:

Funfly that is a great idea and Flamanar too- a NPC would be neat- say in the tree lot and you click on him to get the prize and stand next to him for a picture. FAST & simple. I really wish VFK would do something and let the little kids interact personally with santa. They do need more that 2 santas on. Even after knowing santa would be on at 4PM I couldn't get in to see him to get MY santa hat and scarf. princess wanted to talk to him again and I told her we need to let the other kids have a chance. I saw 2 lines listed but both were full all night. Thank goodness princess got lucky the other day!  :angel: 
My memory is so bad but I was thinking that those that didn't get in to see santa last year still got the santa hat in their inventory christmas day. Is that right?

You are correct about last year.  However, when I was in Santa's room, someone asked if that would be the case this year as well -- Vintage said she wasn't sure. 

So, I wouldn't count on that happening.  It might happen, but we won't know for sure until Christmas Day.

My Mom's guy got in and he wanted to give her kids coal.  :rofl1:

I am still waiting to get my hat and scarf though.  :madder:  I couldn't get in to see him last year either, but they did give everyone a hat closer to Christmas for those that couldn't see him.
