I am having the same internet connection issue as well. My computer guru husband restarted everything related to our internet and it still says there is an Internet connection problem.

It must be on Gamelot's side?

I am having same problem.

Me too. I would advise people to not open chests or collect from characters that are dropping cloths/NBC character tokens until it's fixed. You can check the status by clicking on the event screen and under Goofy, it'll say "Requires internet connection" if you haven't gotten him yet. That way you won't be wasting a chest or collection because you have no chance of getting the event stuff.

Tons of sites on the internet were having trouble this morning. Could be related.

Thanks for the advice.
I've been having this problem for almost 6 hours. The contact us button doesn't work- gives same "need internet connection " message. Probably lost a few blue cloths before realizing it happened. Thanks to you, I won't keep making the same mistake (& I would have!).

This was posted on the Disney Magic Kingdoms' Facebook page:

Are you seeing the “Require Internet Connection” message? Disney Magic Kingdoms has been affected by a large-scale networking issue that has resulted in outages for many major online services, and we’re currently working to resolve the issue. We’ll keep you updated as we move forward. Thank you!

Looks like you can still collect the event currency though! So at least we'll still be able to stock up on money in the meantime.

There is no way I will ever be able to collect enough purple cloth for costumes...you can only get them in bronze chests and all I ever get from bronze is stupid pirate stuff. Also before the event I used to only open silver and above, never bothered with bronze even though I got a ton of them. But for some reason ever since the event, now that I "need" bronze, I've been getting a LOT more silver chests than I did in the past. Coincidence? I think not!

Also opened a gold chest that had a royal banner lamppost inside. That's not even listed as a reward for gold chests!

Have you tried scrolling down on the of potential rewards? I think the royal banner is in the third row, fourth item over.

I didn't even know you COULD scroll down. I know the scroll bar is there but every time I try to use it, it doesn't budge (playing on an iPad). I assumed it was just there for future additions or something.

ETA: playing around with it more and I realize that I CAN scroll down. Furthermore, I guess purple cloth is not just in bronze...sigh, just ignore all of my previous idiocy.

Just received my final green piece of fabric and Goofy is in progress for the hour to welcome him. As I was nearing completion, I started getting the red pieces of fabric.

Now, I have Mickey and the Haunted Mansion both originally possibly dropping the green material I WOULD have needed for Goofy. However, now that Goofy is done, the rewards both changed to treasure chests with either green or blue fabric inside. So now that's two colors I no longer need. Wondering if i wait on Mickey until after Goofy is done, perhaps the fabric will change to red or purple? Fingers crossed!

Never mind...I goofed

After the 6 hour "Sugar Rush Mickey Quest", More bugs 100 dropping 10 at a time every 30 minutes. And its time to build the Candy Shop. 12 hours and 15,000 pumpkins.

Hi! Are you having collecting tokens or are you not progressed enough in the tasks?[/QUOTE]

I am having trouble collecting his hat and the bats. I'm still only halfway there. Now the chest keep spitting out pirate stuff instead of the cloth so I don't think I'll ever finish this event!

 

[Jennie Green]

If I remember correctly you have to get Mickey into his costume before you are going to be able to unlock Jack. There are also a few quests that Mickey needs to do. )I think Goofy has a quest in there are well before you can unlock Jack.

• Dress to Scare (60m)
  - Welcome Halloween Mickey Mouse 650 (* Required to continue)
• Sweets for the Sweet (5m)
• To Plan a Perilous Party (15m)
• Curse Removal (??)
  • Terror among the Toys! (3h, 30m)
• Halloween Feel (6h)
  - Build Jack's House 1,500
• Halloween Tag Team (6h)
• Welcome a Pumpkin King (2h)
  - Welcome Jack Skellington 3,500 (* Required to continue)

I've done all that it's just taking forever to collect everything needed to welcome Jack.

That is where I'm at right now too. Almost finished the bugs (another hour to go before they are all caught)

The new offer I'm receiving is purchasing Jack Sparrow and 100 gems for $14.99. It's frustrating because as much as I want to buy Jack, that's quite high considering most specials are under $7. Is Jack really worth purchasing?

Another question. I currently have 2 chest spaces open and thinking about purchasing the third. I have a 24 hour chest and a 12 hour chest however I don't want to tie up a space for so long during the Halloween event. I have 718 gems. Thoughts?

Once you have all your pirate stuff collected, don't upgrade your pirates until after Halloween. If your "stock" of pirate tokens is full, I don't think you will get those items in your chests anymore. Then you have a better chance of getting cloth.
