Second Community Challenge completed!

[MKR&*42]

2 down, 1 go!

That's right folks, the entire community on Habbo has been working together to complete each 'community challenge' (which can be seen on the hotel view) and there's good news! The second 'community challenge' reward was unlocked last night (after the community surpassed 3.5 million jumps) and the reward is a donation from Sulake to a horse charity. Quite a generous act if you ask me.

Now, the next step is for the community to gain just over 3 million additional jumps and by doing so, Sulake will increase the amount of money they are giving to a horse charity. The best part is, if the community reaches the maximum "level" then users will have the chance to vote for which charity actually receives the money. It's quite surprising to see Sulake giving us control over where some of their money goes - nevertheless, it's still a nice surprise.

Second community challenge was completed last night! Was going to stay up and wait for it to happen but I dropped asleep quite early :L.

I still love these challenges, as you can see I haven't been able to jump much (no horse, and other horses are always on low energy >.<) + I genuinely think it's quite nice of Sulake to donate to a horse charity and potentially give us the chance to vote for which charity receives it.

Views? :)

Maybe you should suggest that to Sulake for their next community challenge them bbes? I'm pretty sure they'll donate to more in the future :L Unless they decide they don't want to donate anymore after horses ._.

I'm quite surprised they're donating their hard-earned money as it is. You'd think with their constant petty attempts to get money out of us, they'd be keeping it to themselves! I think this is Paul LaFontaine's idea; Disney are famously known to be huge donators to charities, and it seems that ethos has followed him and his business style.

Oh i didn't know that was a charity. i thought it's a new pig that you can save your coins lol. anyways, i think it's a good idea.

Exactly my thoughts when I saw that the second prize was a donation (a few days ago). If they are supposedly valued at $3 billion, then I see no reason why shouldn't have been donating for the past few years. + Yes, I expect most of it is down to Paul LaFontaine - Habbo has improved quite a bit since he "came into the scene" and I expect he'll uphold his "decent reputation" (depending on your opinion on Habbo CMs) for quite a while. So yes, more charity donations doesn't seem so unlikely :P

they could of donated to a better charity but yeah its a good idea :-)

Well, I guess with the releases of the new horse things, I can understand why they chose a horse charity rather than anything else. Not saying I would've picked this charity though! Nice thing they're doing, which is weird. :P

Horse Charity for doing Horse stuff on Habbo kinda makes sense. I'm surer they wouldn't donate if they didn't have the money to do so! :P

[Pigperson]

Sounds good I guess, never really seen Habbo do charity work much in the past.

Have there been any actual figures released of how much is being donated? Would be interesting to know how much they are actually willing to donate

Unfortunately not ;/ I was slightly suspicious when they didn't post a figure. For all we know, it could be £50 - yes that's still a donation, but if it was only £50 from Sulake I wouldn't be very impressed (doubt it'd only be £50 though - don't think they'd stoop that low).

Maybe there'll be a figure once the final challenge gets completed :P
