Quick Draw prizes

[tarsky781]

The deluxe members aren't the only ones who get the eStore QuickDraws. There's a deluxe advantage once every other day, if even, I think. And it's definitely not always eStore QuickDraws. Sometimes there are QuickDraws for regular items, sometimes for eStore, available to everyone. I think the QuickDraw-only items would be the only reasonable thing to do. Superbeds are meant to be gotten with the 10th adoption and every 5 after that as a "super exclusive item." I personally think the prizes are fine. I've never won a QuickDraw before, but I've seen a handful of threads about winning, and sometimes while I'm reading the post, I put myself in their shoes. I can imagine that it feels great to win a QuickDraw, and nobody is complaining about winning crayons or Amaryllis flowers. I have a strong feeling that the rarer and more prized the items are, the harder it'll be to win them- until they offer a red lava or white bunny ears and nobody gets the winning ticket!

Good point! It might be harder to win if they were rarer, but then wouldn't it be more satisfactory to have a great item?... I agree with you completely. Quick Draw Only items would be an awesome addition! I'll write in to Ganz tomorrow. Thanks for posting!

The items are sometimes wshop junk just like the regular quick draws, and just like the deluxe sometimes {on estore days} the quickdraw is estore item for everyone -- but in the end the odds are so bad to win anything at all it doesn't really matter, since for all we know with the preset numbers on the card then what they say we scratched off there could be no winners pegged already to begin with.

Another possibility is to give a Winning Draw trophy - non-sendable and non-tradable, of course - to whoever wins at least one draw. Make it a rainbow arch over a pot-o-gold postament, a perfect symbol of material luck. Right now, all a lucky player gets is a worthless W-Shop item and even more worthless badge.

Yes. I find Quick Draws disappointing!

That's a good idea!

I dont like QD. I mean you have what 7 or some odd numbers and I mean the odds of getting the right numbers are slim to none.

I think my niece got one one time but still

and it glitches so you have to click in it more than once

and speaking of glitches the Wishing Well is glitchy too.

The 9-10 QuickDraw for regular members was for an eStore item.

They should have quick draw only prizes like others have said. Here are some ideas for them:
Lucky Pot O' Gold, It's my day cake(A special cake), and Winner Winner Chicken Dinner (A chicken platter). Lol thought these were cute ideas

I like the idea of QD only prizes but, in my opinion, Ganz would have to make them so that the odds of winning are much better than they currently are. This would make it so that it isn't only an extremely tiny percentage of people that have them.

Right now if you lose, the disappointment level is negligible since it's cheap WShop stuff anyway. Webkinz is, after all, primarily aimed at children and hitting them with disappointing loss after disapointing loss is beyond fair.

Since bettering the odds is something I doubt they'd do, they could offer whatever seasonal WShop items (with the higher price tags) happen to be going at the time, like now, with the Halloween theme or the Christmas stuff in a few weeks. It would be better than the cheap everyday stuff they currently dole out, but still attainable for those that don't win.
