Recommended Posts

I'll definitely be running through this a few more times; I love the story.

ok... theorectically speaking...

 

i know that there is a halloween event planned. I've known that for quite some time... people discussing / speculating about it for weeks. Halloween comes around and I avoid the site for whatever reason and do not participate at all in the halloween event. Several DAYS had been set aside for people to participate - it was not like it was a one day event. Why should I then demand the right to have the ability to complete the halloween event weeks after the holiday event occurred after having put no effort at all in trying to participate in the first place?

 

That's like someone going to the mall and complaining to the mall manager at the end of January that they deserve the right to have their child sit on Santa's lap and tell him what he wants for christmas ... weeks after the christmas holiday "come visit santa" event at the mall is done and over with.

What's with those who didin't even know about the cave at that time? It would be fair if newbies were at least able to see how il looked.

Oh my. I feel my bighearted mood sinking at record speeds.

 

There are plenty of possible legitimate reasons to not have been able to participate, but that is not even the point.

I never said these people had the right to be able to run through the haunted house adventure, I just said I thought it would be nice for them.

 

Yeez, why can't anyone just do something nice for other people anymore even if they don't 'have the right to it'?

 

And for your example (if we're going for ridiculous examples): if that mall manager would invite Santa in january so kids who didn't get what they asked for in the first place could have a retry on his lap, yes, I think it would be cruel to deny Santa's lap to kids that cannot prove they came to the mall to sit on his lap before Christmas.

 

As my urge to be nice to people is now completely over, I will not be coming here again to discuss this some more.

 

EDIT for angry typo.

ok..maybe I'm missing something here.... but why do people seem to think that the only way to get back to Haunted House is through the HH badge on the scroll (visible only to those who actually completed the HH) ??? 

 

Anyone who started the HH but never finished obviously had some items in their HH inventory -- correct?  At the very least.. they would have the mushroom since that is practically thrown at you from the first move.  And while they may not have completed the HH and gotten the HH badge itself, they are supposed to be able to access the HH inventory from their ACCOUNT page (the same way you can access all the other past holiday inventories).  A nice big link on the Account page...

 

 

 

And when you click on your HH inventory link there is a big link there that says...

 

 

 

The only ones who would not be able to do this were those that never accessed the Haunted House at all because they never collected any items and therefore would not have an inventory page.

You actually made me log in to reply...

 

 

Wroooooooooong...

 

I didn't finish, had other things to do on Halloween, so I managed to only collect about 75% of the items.

 

 

Those are GONE!!!!!!!!!!! There is NO link on my dragons page, nor account page, nor any other place whatsoever to let me see what I actually DID collect, because I didn't finish, so check your facts first, mmkay??

 

I have collected everything for all the other events, and those are accessible via my scroll and accounts page, but not the effing haunted house. For once I wasn't able to finish, too bad, so sad.

 

Pisses me off. mad.gif

...Maybe it's different for me because I have completed it, but I thought that anyone could get to it through the account page? It's Account-->Haunted House. Right below the Festival of Eggs link, if you did that. I'm fairly certain that TJ wouldn't just make you throw out your inventories.

Either way, there's no need to be angry at someone, whether or not their facts are wrong.

Dear, I assure you, it's not the person I was replying to I'm angry at, nor is it you.

 

Three guesses who....

 

When I look at other people's scrolls, I can see they have a four lines long inventory from the house. I had three and a half line of items.

 

Can you find them? - Screenprint - http://i176.photobucket.com/albums/w200/ny...ire/account.jpg

 

 

I don't think it's fair that just because I didn't have the time to find the last clue to "put the soul to rest", or whatever it was, that I should lose every item I did manage to gather.

 

Okay, so I don't get the badge because I didn't finish, but seriously, I reviewed plenty of decorated Xmas trees back when we had that, and some trees only had a couple of decorations, but still.... those people got that badge.

 

*grumbles several swearwords*

 

 

I would like to add, that I am, however, deeply grateful to the person who obviously saw my first post, and thought to glomp gift me to cheer me up. Thank you SO much for that. wub.gif

Ah. Maybe it's a glitch? I'm finding it very unlikely that TJ would purposefully make you lose your inventory. Because of that, though, I agree with you that it's not fair that way.

Sorry if I came across as annoying - I tend to be super-sensitive to the frowning smilies and posts that sound angry.

After weeks of hard work, we have come up with an event that's unlike any other you've seen. Explore the haunted house to calm your dragons' unrest, and collect numerous items along the way. The badge is only given out if you complete the goal.

 

You can access the house from the main cave or from your scroll until 0:00 on November 1.

 

Sorry to those of you who didn't finish! That is quite unfortunate, but we were warned at the beginning of the five or six days that we wouldn't receive the badge if we didn't finish. 3=

I am not so much talking about the badge as I'm talking about the items collected.

 

Those who only managed to gather one easter egg, got their basket and can see their egg. Those who placed one decoration on their xmas tree, got their badge and can see their tree.

 

Those who didn't manage to finish the haunted house....no badge, no items collected, nothing...

 

 

I'll go elsewhere now before I explode even more.

Since I was in a cafe because my internet went off on halloween this is a great new for me; I didn't read the story, I just collected the items x_x

 

YAAAAAAY!!!

In my opinion it just does not seem fair for people who finished to get to look around again. Well ones like me who had busy weekday schedules and where away from the computer on the weekend for other planed activities could not finish in time to get the opportunity to look around again. sad.gif

But I think this could be like an "award" for those who finished it, so if you completed it before Halloween, you can go when you want.

I was insanely busy that week and weekend, managing a Halloween store, (think Christmas Eve and Black Friday busy, combined!) yet managed to complete it in my time off the job. It was just something I wanted done!

Those who completed the Haunted House event can now run through the event again with a fresh inventory. Any items you collect will not actually be saved or shown to other users. You can access it by clicking on the badge on the "Dragons" page.

I will close this now, enjoy the Haunted house.
