I'm confused. (LOL not that hard to do, eh?) Not only is this not Deluxe, but the staircase is different than the other? What is the other one, if so? Or you get two of the same staircase? Inquiring minds wants to know! Ganz put the wrong staircase in as the Deluxe Prize and it was too hard/impossible to change the coding, so instead the Deluxe staircase is the one that is shown, and the New challenge prize (which everyone can do as we understand it now) is the one which was the original staircase for the Deluxe. Does that make sense? Okay, I think if get it now. They added the bonus to grant the original staircase, I gather. Another question, then. The other one looks like the Slippery Holiday Staircase to me. Is it different from that?

Did they rush the programming again? Thanks for the info, but instead of fixing things Ganz has a habit of giving stuff away. I'm not hopeful that all the things I am still waiting to see get fixed will actually get fixed. On a positive note, I love the freebees.

I've still got a pet mia in the program although I have the picture. Otherwise we don't have much choice but going with the flow, or not playing which isn't my choice at the moment.

This is just what it looks like to me. The pictured staircase in the Deluxe Challenge is the Slippery Holiday Staircase.
Either: 1) You are awarded that one in the Deluxe, and the Winter Staircase in the Bonus. (Hence, them saying don't, because you are getting a promo prize.) 2) You are getting the Winter Staircase (not pictured) in BOTH Deluxe and Bonus, giving one 2x the same stairs. Which is the lesser liked option.

WIN/WIN

They need a "proofreader", imo. Well, a lot of people do not realize there is a very small staff for WW, so they are spread pretty thin. They do the programming, FB,twitter and everything else. Maybe 4/5 people at the most.

It ultimately is what it is. I can fall back to it being pixels, and find my zen that way. Just have one less promo. LOL

I honestly thought their staff was larger, I didn't realize it was that tiny. I feel bad because I can relate to them with my real life at my job in retail, never having enough workers for the extra help. I know they're still sorting out Webkinz X and that was a huge project in itself, sometimes we just have to realize they are human too and they make mistakes, some that are larger than others.

They need a "proofreader", imo. In all honestly they do have a lot of errors. Look at how many errors just the Estore has had over the years. I can think of at least 3 off the top of my head.
I'm happy about the bonus challenge, just so they give us enough time to complete it .

I know they're still sorting out Webkinz X and that was a huge project in itself, sometimes we just have to realize they are human too and they make mistakes, some that are larger than others. I agree Blue! Most of their staff is really great and I do appreciate the way they've embedded themselves in the community. I think it means a lot to the players. I think they work really hard, but as Las said, there are not many of them and we are a very demanding bunch. Errors do happen all the time, but with most of us, they are not noticed by an entire community prior to getting fixed. I can't imagine making an error and having it posted all over FB, they have my sympathies. As for the WebkinzX fixes, they did hire an outside contractor to help with those, so its my hope that they'll get those moving along faster.

Well, a lot of people do not realize there is a very small staff for WW, so they are spread pretty thin. They do the programming, FB,twitter and everything else. Maybe 4/5 people at the most. Okay, yeah. Knowing that does soften my approach somewhat. They still need a proofreader, that hasn't changed in my sentiments. As far as the mistakes go? I've always been the type to not take advantage of the glitches, so you could probably say that I'm more a supporter than a detractor. This one hit me more than other errors mostly because the Staircase I have had special meaning ( JasonAldeanMG). Something of value with special meaning is closer to home than the usual; it just hurts a little more. BUT they are just pixels in the end, and will one day be gone. So enjoy the game in the process, regardless of value and rarity.
