From doing some snooping around, sounds like it could be a bug in the system that made them change the prize for the time being (but then why would they still award the magic pin?), or like figgie said, someone found either a pattern or learned how to get around it.

As we've all talked. This goes in favor of the cheaters that caused this. They will trade off those pins in a hurry in the game so they can't be traced on the boards. People have spend tons of credits just trying to get the magic, to get the sword.
As with anything in real world. You make something very rare, somebody will find a loophole to beat the system. This person or persons did. Is it cheating, finding a loophole may not be. To not notify staff or VMK about it, and continue using it to their advantage is.
I agree with JP and others. For the problem, I believe that the current pins should not be tradeable until this is fixed (like the did Sparrow). Since we seem to be ride crash dummies in all this which seems not to be going well, they should award everyone in VMK the Mad Tea Party pin like the New Year's Pin.
I believe what should happen is, the getting of the Magic Pin should be random. But going for the Sword, if you don't get a pin, at least award us with credits of some kind. Or for ever 10th ride you get the Magic Pin. Then the Sword is still just the random thing.
And Fan I think they kept awarding the Magic because they figure after 1 day it will expire. So if they haven't found a fix over night, they may not award that and they only have a half of day of magic pins left.
VMK needs to make an announcement again on when it restarts. Its not fair to the community in general to keep us in the dark.

Some intercot people saw people getting 10 credits for pulling out the sword instead of the pin. When that was confirmed we looked around other boards to see what people were saying. I don't want to say what the cheater/cheaters were actually doing, but it did involve a Quest Kiosk. It was definitely evil intentions.

Names, I want names
Can you imagine how frustrating this must be for the developers? They work so long and come up with this wonderful addition and the cheaters mess it up on the second day. Boy would I love to have control of the ban button!

Well there is some good news the prize for pulling the Sword out of the stone is no longer 10 credits. A new prize has been added. Are you ready for it?? Well the new prize today is appearently a Lumier!

So the cheaters have won again then. They caused people yesterday to not get magic pins because of all the times they went through to get the chance at the mad tea party pin. Now its going to be rare because of that. They have also profitted off your credits since they didn't have to use theirs.
I'm definitely writing VMK about this. This is unacceptable. And I suggest you all do the same thing. Its the principle of the thing.
I also say why are cheaters given a 30 day ban. They should lose that character and all that's on the character. That would stop most of this.

it is soooo frustrating when a few bad apples spoil things for the rest of us!!!

So just so there isn't misunderstandings, what you got was the Lumiere lamp that you can buy from Small World Imports then?? Not a pin?
-
Well I personally didn't get the lamp I have read and seen pictures of the messages people have gotten that said they got the lamp. Yes the Lumier lamp that you can buy at any time in Small World Imports

Reports are that Yavn himself (in game of course, where hardly anyone can ever find him) has said that there was a bug in the system and that they wanted to give something out rather than nothing. Hmm...
I should be a reporter
