Ganz Acknowledges Raffle Glitch, They're Working On It

 

For the first time since the Vacation Island Party Raffles quit working, Ganz has publicly addressed the issue.  We now have official confirmation that they are aware of the problem and that they are trying to fix it.  Thank you to @PartyScout, a member of the Webkinz Insider community, for getting Ganz to respond on Twitter.  Remember, you can read all of the latest Webkinz-related Tweets right here on WI's front page, on the right side, near the bottom.

 

As most of you know, the Raffles in the Vacation Island Coral Cove used to have prizes.  Following a site maintenance in mid-August 2009, the system quit awarding those prizes.  The broken Raffles have been going on for seven months, with winners getting empty boxes.  As a result, the Flowing Palm Tree, Hibiscus Bush, Vacation Deck Chair, and Volcanic Rock are considered "not currently available" in Webkinz World.

   

Hopefully the programmers at Ganz will be able to sort this out soon.  We know a number of players have been storing up their Vacation Island tickets, waiting for this glitch to be corrected to use them.  We are tracking the status of this glitch HERE in our Glitch Report section.
