A week of non stop events, I don't think so.
You have to think about it, not many people would want to be up 24hours each day of the week. I think one day was nice enough and it's been a success IMO. Everyone that has helped has done a great job, and I know some people that did the events would like a long break.

There may be a chance it returns, but I don't think it would come back soon :P

haha 24/7 is the name of the next one? :P

yeah I dread to think what our general management would look like if theyd had 7 days of staying up til 5am just to do events. I mean they're not a pretty sight in normal circumstances so imagine the horror! ;)

I really don't think something like this should be run for a week, people wouldn't be sleeping! I know that it's been quite a struggle with Habbox 24 this time but it's been very beneficial. We've had a wide range of different timezones visiting habbox and having them signing up to the forum. I'm not sure it would work as well if it was each day of the week, staff members would be shattered and event/competitions wouldn't be as good.

In my opinion it should be brought back but not for a week, maybe once or twice a year. :)

There is the HXSS that happens every year. :)

Last year's announcement.

This is a huge, huge event.

Non stop events in a week, are you out of your mind? I don't think you realise how hard that would be.

Not sure if it should be brought back, if so then not too often - I think it literally kills for missing one night of sleep.

Of course it is but there isn't an event going on every single hour where something new happens which is what she was trying to get at. :D

It was a success but hopefully it's not done too soon in the future as otherwise it is just seen as repetitive. :) The amount of effort some staff have put in is phenomenal and I have received one person on MSN saying "I am NOT doing this again!" and I don't blame them! :P

Really BAD idea, People wouldent be sleeping for a week, If hxf does that think of the bad rep they would get for making people very tired.

Habbox 24 has worked very well in my own opinion and I believe maybe having one every couple of months would be great, so around 4/5 times a year.

We do have massive weeks of events, including the Habbox Summer Spectacular which is two weeks of non-stop fun and absolute madness in August each each, and the Easter Extravaganser which has just passed.

We currently have another week of events that'll be going on in Habbox Help Desk - HxHD goes Hollywood! So keep an eye on the different events there :D

Well, it would be an awesome event to hold once a year before the HxSS.

I thought it was a very good idea and it worked out well. I say there should be more of these kind of events in the future but i imagine it's very stressfull for the people who have to organise it.

On that note, well done to all who organised it and helped make it happen :) .

[Jssy]

I'd like it to happen again :)

[Pigperson]

I would totally hate a week of it. I think a weekend is good because you just stay up over 1 weekend which is doable. It was really good and should be a "every 6 months" event :D

if it was a weekly event oli and martin would be broke spending all that money on credits LOL

[Nuxty]

Yeah, I think we've established that this wouldn't work as a weekly thing and it is a rather special event, that should happen a few times a year and not so regularly!! :)

[Hecktix]

Well, I for one am absolutely shattered and the thought of doing it again or for a week makes me want to run to the hills :P

However, it was an absolutely fantastic event and despite the lack of sleep (I finally caved in at 9:30 this morning!) it worked unbelievably well, what I think was great about this event is you had so many different areas of Habbox working together for the one event which brought the people who really wanted to go at this to try out literally every area of Habbox and I know some of these people were newbies so I'm really pleased, forum registrations were up a looooooooooooooot which is fantastic, HabboxLive listeners remained at about 50-60 all the way through the night which Jess and I couldn't believe. Every single event had more than 20 people in it from beginning to end which again, absolutely phenomenal.

The effort that everybody has put in to this event is truly phenomenal, for me this was a kind of last-minute idea that I had on a train, I text Martin there and then and the planning for Habbox 24 then begun and look what it became, 24 hours of events with about 30 events in the process, over 70 people winning something over the weekend.

I'm sure we'll do this again however not too soon in the future and next time I'll be sure to arrange it when Martin hasn't got a busy weekend at work because having to supervise 24 hours has nearly killed me, I did enjoy doing my events though and mingling with people :D

Thanks to everyone involved, it has been a great success and another sign of exactly what Habbox is!

Think everyone has summed up why it shouldn't done weekly, some of us would probably be getting really ill if we did that due to lack of sleep :P

It is something I think we should do again as I really enjoyed it. It was extremely tiring though and I only managed to get into bed at 10am this morning and I've been up since 6am Saturday :( I thought it was a really nice way to bring people together and I think it's helped to encourage new people to sign up but also create better relationships with current members. I know for a fact that spending a lot of time hosting arcade events/quests and going into other's events made me get to know people better who I haven't spoken to much before. Plus, it's just been really fun to do as everyone else is having fun with you, it's why I enjoy big events like this and it's why events like HxSS are such a success.
