There is a new maze! The prize this time is yellow rose hedges! Looks like some kind of plant is the special prize.
.it
EDIT: OMG, I actually attached my first picture....woot woot for me! I "borrowed" this picture from elsewhere; I tried to attach my own picture of the second maze (map) but it's too big and I don't know how to fix it. The map maze has some sort of shaped hedge, kind of looks like an ice cream to me, lol.
ETA: more maze pics

As I saw others doing it, I tried it too. Wear your fairy dazzle magic, and you can cut through any hedge, even the double rows at the bottom to prevent cutting.

I had seen some doing this at the red roses maze the other night....and I saw this tip posted else where today. Nice little shortcut.
Thanks Duck.i for letting us know.

O drat! Just when I thought I finally figured it out, lol. To me it's a small pic in the signature line and when I click on it, it goes bigger so you can see it. So you are saying it does not appear there for you? :doh:

Does not appear at all for me. Nothing for me to even click on. :??:

Thanks, .It. There are 3 regular pics in the top of the first post. There is also a tiny picture in the sig with a paperclip next to it (attachment?). If you click on it, you will see a fairly largish pic. Sigh. I need to direct .It to the sticky of mine on how to post pics here! :hmm:

I agree. The yellow is nice and bright and alot more visible in the hedges. Very pretty stuff.

Just a side note here:
Thanks duck.he for the short cut hint. I will say during the last Rose maze, the very first night or two the maze was up, one of the mazes enabled you to go straight down the side of the maze to the end. (Only for a bit late that night) It made for quick mazing, which enabled us to actually get enough "friends" through to get a duck and bunny each.
However, there was a person standing at the end of the maze harassing anyone who cut through. The sad thing is, I could tell by the "chat" that this person was an adult. They had one player, who I know was a child, beside herself telling the little girl she would be banned from the game for "cheating", etc. Their character title seemed like a clone, so my guess is the real person was hiding behind that character while behaving like this. I tried to tell her there were better ways to spend time in game than standing in the maze harassing other players, to no avail. :uhuh2:
Just my opinion on this...if there are bugs in the maze, enabling us to cut through and it saves some of us much needed time (or makes it easier on the fingers) then so be it. If they are really intent on it, they will change it around. So, if my little fairy can speed through, I will give it a try! :thumb:

Gotta agree. VFK usually knows about the shortcuts. If they REALLY were upset about it and didn't want people using them, they would fix it right away. 'Nuff said ;) My fairy will get there any way they can!
Funny thing is that anyone can use the shortcuts. People that complain about them only hurt themselves. They should just follow the line and... :-X

No maze time for now, but will attack it on Monday. :P

Haven't come across this person yet, sad that they would bother other players about cutting through the mazes. They are probably just jealous they can't cut through with their tiny fairy, because they probably haven't completed the fairy dazzle quest yet! :laugh2:

I like the yellow rose hedges but I sure wish they would have given more time to get the red ones. I don't know why I thought they would be there for awhile...hmmm I remember all those ice panels that wouldn't go away.

Same here Sparkle. I never even got to do them. I was out doing birthday things for a while and when I got back the new maze was up. Oh well, won't be the last thing that I don't get. LOL!

I don't care if someone cuts through by finding a short cut cause no matter when you get their if you are going to win it then you are going to win it, but what I don't like is all the fairies in the mazes. Not sure about the small ones as I haven't done the maze with a lot of them yet, but when we had the normal size fairies all I did was freeze up. I hope the smaller ones are easier on my old computer. :)

Oh I have to admit I'm so guilty going through the maze as a fairy. Of course now I'm going through as a small fairy and cutting through of course. I do hope the smaller fairies don't cause as much lag. Has anyone noticed this to be the case?

I've noticed significantly less lag when using 'tiny fairy'. I'd like to hear what others experiences have been, though.

Less lag, definitely more progress ( :yes!: )

I've noticed that also, but our computers never had too much trouble with them before. I do notice a big difference when the tiny fairies are sitting. Seems to be almost no extra lag for me then. Not sure... :??: :??: :??:
