Required toss party so no names calling feature request
Hi CW/Samantha/Dougaroo,
Was wondering if it's possible to schedule a party and have an option to require attendees to toss but will be done automatically by the system.
So for example in a 1 x unicorn party, everyone is required to toss 1 boat. So the entry cost for the party is 950 party passes and 1000 gems (cost of boat). Once party starts, each attendee will get up to 25 boats (depend on # of attendee) and up to 26 unicorns automatically.
This way it we can get away from the "names called" parties and have fun instead of waiting for some sort of role/attendance call. Just feels like those are way too formal lol...
Cheers

I don't mind the way it is now but some people are poofing out before there name is called not there own fault but the normal blue screen of death and lose out on some charms.

That's an interesting idea. We could look into building something like this.
Just so I understand - the reason to not have a "2 unicorn" entry fee party here, is because that wouldn't advance the party buster in the way that a "1 unicorn entry fee + 1 boat after" would.
Is that correct? Or is there another reason people do this?

Dougaroo yes in a perfect world, that would be the best to change it to 2 x unicorn instead and nobody needs to spend gems haha.. but we have what we have now. There are many required toss parties and sometimes there are drama just because people don't throw or don't read. This is a good middle ground and also good for CW as it makes people spend gems too.
There are some that likes to bust parties and throw. It's part of the fun I suppose. :)
If we can remove the "names calling" part of a party, it'll make it just a tad more fun.1 -
+ You also get those surprise prizes along the way from the meter, cool to see large gem prizes as well. It also makes it fair for everyone attending the party on a required toss.
Just a side note- required toss not just 1 charm but any number of type of charms available in that room.
If you can provide a meter while scheduling parties like the monument evolving meter to see how far in the party meter the required charms will bring it up to.Just some thoughts that'll give parties more options.

Dougaroo, well, yes, that would be the reason, right? Isn't that the reason for a required toss as things are now?
This is not a bad idea. It would offer a second level of party cost and could be done at all levels. Say a party cost one beer (5 PPs) with a requirement to toss one beer (5 Gems), etc..
Or maybe this could become a feature of VIP parties where a Charm is chosen with the requirement to toss (automatic) one of the VIP Charms. Here, the host would select 'VIP' and a new window would appear with a new drop down menu asking for a selection of the VIP Charm.
Nifty idea.

April, this suggestion from Night Guy wouldn't change a thing in the way parties are now organized. He has only suggested that this idea be added to the options available to prospective party hosts. All other things would remain the same.

THE TOSS PARTIES ARE GOOD FOR ALL WHO WANT TO HAVE FUN AND PARTICIPATE.... NO ONE IS TWISTING ANYONES ARM TO GO TO A TOSS PARTY... SO MANY THANK ME FOR HAVING MY TOSS PARTIES, THEY LOVE THEM - THEY ALWAYS FILL AND THEY ALWAYS BUST... CAN NOT SAY THAT FOR A LOT OF PARTIES ON HERE..

SO JUST LET PPL DECIDE THE PARTY THEY WANT TO ATTEND AND LET IT BE...

APRILDIAMOND1962 sorry you feel that way and your opinion is respected, it was just my opinion about names calling parties. My request does not change anything on how you host your parties, it's your choice. You are welcome to do what you wish. It's just an option and you do not have to use it.
Your are right nobody forced me nor have I heard of anyone forced to go to any parties... let's not bring it up as everyone is on that same boat.

CRYSTAL CLEAR Thank you for your input on the parties.
My request will give you more options on how you want to host your parties and does not change anything on how you are doing thing.1 -
Dougaroo you can tell there are many people who gets upset when party rules are not followed, and rightfully so. It's fine with me going to those toss required parties and encounter non tossers. It's just a game to me and it is what it is.
Some hosts would love to have toss required parties where everyone spends more time to just dance and chat while the system does the work, if you want to toss more go for it. This doesn't change the status quo but give more option. :)Cheers -NG

Yep ok. Thanks folks I understand what you're suggesting. It's certainly interesting.
We'll discuss it internally and see if we think it's a good idea and if we think it's not too hard to implement.
Many thanks for everyone's input.

Thank you Dougaroo.1 -
One of the problems with "toss parties" is that you might not know it's a toss party. For example, someone is hosting a Rockets party, 3 yacht toss required.
I'm minding my own business, playing slots and a friend invites me to a rockets party so I click yes (or whatever the button is) and I'm brought to the party, or to the screen telling me to pay the entry fee and then to the party.
But I've skipped the party page where if you click on the party, it tells you it's a 3 yacht toss party.
So unless I go back and see that it's a toss 3 yachts party, I don't know that. And sometimes, I've been the 24th or 25th person into the room, and the party starts and I didn't have a chance to check. Now personally, I keep a bank of gems so I can cover that, but if you have no gems, you could be screwed and have no way to toss.
So maybe if they can implement the change, people wouldn't be allowed in unless they have the required passes AND gems to compete. Because I think that's the reason why people GnG to a toss party. I think most of us are honest, and don't want to screw our fellow players.1 -
Most of the hosts at the toss party's I go to tell you many times before it starts what you need to toss. They stand up front so you can see them and tell you once it starts what to toss again. Also if you go to the same hosts partys over and over they pretty much toss the same things.

Big E is Totally correct in the "Invite" problem.
You have no idea what you are about to enter into.
A Friend invites you to a party. What kind of Party? How many Gems? It sucks.
That is why I remain in "NO" mode for friends can see you online.....
I got tired of being sucked into parties I couldn't afford or wasn't interested in the Charm being offered.
