Thanks Astro....

These raincoats came in a nice little box with all 3 pieces (hat, coat and boots)

At first I was wondering if we had to ride 3 times for the entire outfit - sooo glad it came all in a box!

Glad to see it is the same prize for those that missed yesterday. Also, that means I don't have to worry about more colors for the 4 of us. Yay! :dance2:

Just an FYI: Jade and Apple are popping up in various ride rooms and if you say I found Host_Jade! or I found Host_Apple! you get the frog pin. The kids saw someone else say it and they both won in different ride rooms!

Nice added surprise! There was a pop up, but just wanted to let everyone here know!

OK...here is my rant about this event:  it makes me SO mad when they pull a host hunt on TOP of a ride event!  It's hard enough just to make it through the laggy rides.  I participated in this event today to get extras for those who need; and for doing a bit of trading perhaps.

The rooms were so incredibly laggy, I can't believe they would throw something else on top of it!  No matter how many times I saw a host, the words just got lost in lag land!!!  I am a pin lover, and this just make me  :bm:  that they combined these two types of event.  I just can't seem to get my hands on this pin, ROFL -- 1 am HOST Hunt for it?  Sorry I am asleep on a work night.  And now they do a HOST Hunt in an event that screams "LAG" and "CRASH".  Sigh.

I was able to do what I set out to do, so I guess I should just be happy with that.  Wendy: congrats to the kids for winning...I honestly just gave up trying after losing to the lag monster (ha, or the crash monster since so many ppl found it necessary to talk it up today while riding) too many times.

OK, rant off now.  I said it yesterday and I will say it again: this rain gear is just too cute and I do love it!  I hope they come out with umbrellas to complete the outfit; but I hope they are buyable, not host event stuff.  I too was glad that the colors stayed the same; that meant I didn't really have to concentrate too hard on today -- that is till they threw the HOST Hunt in there.....

OK, prepare for the rant!  :rantsw:  I couldn't go to Sat.'s ride event because Mom and I went to a Chinese Auction for my birthday, but when I saw that they had an encore on Sun. I was hoping it would be the same prizes as Sat..  I was happy to see it was, but when I saw how many there were to get I was like Oh my, but that isn't what I am upset about.  The reason I am upset is this, there were 9 rooms and how many times did we get in?  If you guessed ONCE you were correct.  OMG, ONE FREAKING TIME!  How is that fair with 9 rooms?  It reminds me of Friday, my birthday, when Mom got in once and that was it for both of us.  How the heck am I suppose to get that many raincoats from people?  Its just lame sitting here for 3 hours and getting nothing (if I pick a losing teleporter) or they have so many things to get and only get in once or not at all.  Again I say its cause I am not a member because I see many members getting in over and over again while I sit and wait.  How can they recuit new members if they treat the ones that aren't like dirt.  I could be spending those 3 hours doing other things like for example going out to dinner on my birthday instead of sitting here and not getting in the game.  Yes, I know members give them money, but its posted as free to play so does that mean free to be unfair too?  I guess they just don't like me for telling it like it is.  :mad:  >:[

My turn.  LOL.  These should have been buyables.  Not host prizes.  And the VARIETY of different ones you had to win to collect them all?  I mean....really.  :hmm:  It just keeps getting better and better....  :td:  Pretty short for a 'Flame rant', no?  :P
