6000 users for free special gift

[edible]

They've changed hotel view to say if we get 6,000 online we all get a special gift!

[Michael]

http://ow.ly/i/OK3r - 6000 should be easy

[sex]

That's not going to be hard lol!

[David]

throne or no deal

[xxMATTGxx]

The tweet about it says:


Invite your friends to celebrate, if enough people log in, you could win a badge, a trophy and a week of free VIP!

[David]

The tweet about it says:


too many badges

[Michael]

The tweet about it says:

Hope trophy is trade-able

[edible]

New homepage too.

[j0rd]

I guess the 6k is quite easily achievable, it should have been a tiny bit higher so its harder to get.

[Oidz2]

Its only 3k at the moment, I forgot if americans are five hours ahead or behind, im sure behind... so wait till around 4pm time and then americans will log in.

[tm]

I guess the 6k is quite easily achievable, it should have been a tiny bit higher so its harder to get.

Not so sure tbh. It's only gone from 2600 to 3000 in the last three hours. They've posted on the official blog and twitter and that doesnt seem to have helped much.

If they send a mailer out we might get there today.

[-Nick]

At peak we haave 6.3k HAHAHHAHAHAHHA >:*)

[:Alpha]

Easy you say? Habbo havnt hit over 4.5 or 5k in the past.. 2 months? Maybe more.

Still one of the stupidest competition ive seen. They lost all their pop from bad management. Like a silly competition will make a difference >.<

Just like someone would pop their room with free stuff but its actually the hotel.

[tm]

It feels like one of those radio giveaways. 50 LISTENERS FOR FREE FURNI!!!1111oneeleven

[:Alpha]

Yer exactly lol. Its silly. Go buy yourself some advertisement Habbo.

[JaiHo]

It feels like one of those radio giveaways. 50 LISTENERS FOR FREE FURNI!!!1111oneeleven

How embarrassing is it going to be for them and stupid Paul la fo when they don't hit 6k users. . lol

AWKWARD

[Nick]

New homepage too.

Haha, it looks alright :)

m sure we can get to 6k :P

[Michael]

How embarrassing is it going to be for them and stupid Paul la fo when they don't hit 6k users. . lol

AWKWARD

We will ONE day, so it wont be that embarrassing.

[Demi]

Oh ouch...

[JaiHo]

We will ONE day, so it wont be that embarrassing.

Haha okay so if we hit 6k users in 2 months you wouldn't consider that to be embarrassing? cause I sure would.

[Michael]

Haha okay so if we hit 6k users in 2 months you wouldn't consider that to be embarrassing? cause I sure would.

It may not take that long, some hotels reached their target in a few hours haha.

[Jarkie]

This might happen. I wouldn't mind the trophy, I love habbo Trophies lol.

[geo]

Have we reached it yet? Still seems a little hard to do IMO. :P

[Special]

the gift won't be so special if everyone on habbo has it lol its value will be cheaper than a lodge stool

[OllzIsTasty]

We're on 4195 atm x

[tm]

4237/6000 I think we will make it within the next 5 hours, but it's gonna be close.

[Michael]

the gift won't be so special if everyone on habbo has it lol its value will be cheaper than a lodge stool

There is three gifts, one week of vip, a badge, and a trophy apparently you only get one of them. Say trophy is trade-able then there technically should only be around 2000 of them which could go up a bit in a few years (like what happened to throne)

EDIT: Does it give it to everyone who logs on, or just the 6000?

I really hope it's everyone who logs on as someone awkwardly got me banned.

Another badge though? Really?

[MKR&*42]

Too many badges
Trophy will probably be untradeable
VIP is pointless because it doesn't become a 'unique subscription service' if everyone is given it.

If the trophies are tradeable, then I'll be impressed that they've given out a half-decent reward (even though the value will be zilch :P). It's just annoying giving out VIP every single time, alongside badges.

[Paige.]

lots of badges omg
at first i was thinking there probably won't be any chance we'd reach that but it's rising so we may reach it hmmm

[-Nick]

What are we on now??

[tm]

4477 according to hotel view.
4420 according to homepage.

[AngusBreez]

:O I wonder what the gift is!? badge or trophy?

[smithy1997]

If they give a week free vip, that would be useful. Mines running out soon.

[atpeak]

5201 online atm

[Meanies]

5201 online atm

5216 now!

[TonyBest]

5336 people, only 664 to go!

[Dean]

5343... slowly going up :¬:

[tm]

Went to 5407 then dropped back to 5310 just now. Guess it's kiddies bedtime now right?

[Sharon]

Wait, it's still not happened?

[MKR&*42]

Won't happen today IMO. It'll prob take a while for some former players to catch sight of the news and log in haha. But I wouldn't be incredibly surprised if it did happen later on... I don't know what the % of american/canadian players is, compared to British/Australian/Singaporian.

[CatFlaps]

Omg this is harder than expected :p

Wouldn't be surprised if 9,000 habbos were online right now and they just fixed the amount shown on hotel view tbh ahaha

[David]

looks like habbo over shot their expectations

[Jarkie]

This is sure taking awhile lmao, if this still was Habbo UK, it would of doubled or even tripled the amount of users.

[Meanies]

Back up to 5395 now, only 605 more!

[TonyBest]

I doubt we will get it today, wonder if it will count for clones :P Im sure we can get about 200 more if every member of this forum signed in on clones

[Abdicators]

some of you have some unreal expectations. Many of the old users still wont even be aware that they can speak properly again.

[TonyBest]

Yeah, probably because they all quit due to being fed up of the mute.

[Pigperson]

Doesn't seem to hard, it's currently at 5500/6000 so should be achieved soon :P

Will

[AngusBreez]

Im coming on now!! LETS DO THIS

[Dean]

5563 :P I'm really shocked that it's even got to 5.5k to be honest

[AngusBreez]

5563 :P I'm really shocked that it's even got to 5.5k to be honest
Same haha:O Dont know if we will reach 6k though... probs will

[Fifty-Six]

Do we have to be online when we get 6000 to win the badge?

[AngusBreez]

Do we have to be online when we get 6000 to win the badge?
Maybe... not sure haha :P im staying on anyway

[Dean]

Maybe... not sure haha :P im staying on anyway

Yes, it's 6,000 online users concurrent.

[TonyBest]

Still only at 5561 atm, come on we're so close!

[Dean]

I swear it's broken, mine has been stuck on 5563 for the past 20 minutes now

[TonyBest]

If its broken then I demand my badge and 1 week VIP!

[AngusBreez]

The supposed Trophy is Frank :D and mine is stuck at 5563....

[TonyBest]

You wanna know whats funny, the homepage is saying 5471 :P

[jimi]

Knowing Habbo, they'll probably give the prize to everyone, even those that haven't logged in for months :/

[Plebings]

it's a shame their audience has shrunk so much, even pre-mute we were hardly getting past what we were during after school hours on the uk hotel.

[AngusBreez]

You wanna know whats funny, the homepage is saying 5471 :P
Wow.... there is probs 6k but it wont register :(

---------- Post added 02-08-2012 at 10:27 PM ----------

The welcome lounge is full because of this, everyones waiting :D

[TonyBest]

It is literally broke, still stuck at 5561 for me

[AngusBreez]

It is literally broke, still stuck at 5561 for me
Dont know what happening :( same with me

[Plebings]

maybe it records the peak amount of people?

[Absently]

it's a shame their audience has shrunk so much, even pre-mute we were hardly getting past what we were during after school hours on the uk hotel.
gosh, i remember only a few years back you would only have to wait until 2pm and the hotel would suddenly become so much more popular with all the school kids :P i remember if i was staying at home that day i'd always wait around until that time to start hosting events or opening coin shops

[Michael]

Impossible tonight guys!

[MKR&*42]

Knowing Habbo, they'll probably give the prize to everyone, even those that haven't logged in for months :/

It's fairer that way. If 6k peaked right now, Singaporean users and Australian players wouldn't have had a fair chance at all. Some British kids wouldn't have either depending on their age and the time they sleep.

[TonyBest]

well, this is quite annoying if the meter is broken. Why cant they just give the badge to every member who logged on today when the full chat was restored.

[AngusBreez]

Im going off, I cant stay up all night and wait for 500 more people.

[TonyBest]

We aint gunna get the 6000 users, according to the homepage only 5000 are on

[OhLiam]

5,015 to be exact :p

[AngusBreez]

If there is 5k then there is now way its gonna get to 6k, there was 5.5k earlier.. where they all go:O

[OhLiam]

If there is 5k then there is now way its gonna get to 6k, there was 5.5k earlier.. where they all go:O
Considering its like 23:46 in the UK probably bed, where their parents sent them lol

[Shorty]

It will happen this weekend most likely.

[AngusBreez]

Considering its like 23:46 in the UK probably bed, where their parents sent them lol
LOL True, its quite late for younger ones to be online

[Jarkie]

I love the way its still the same number of which it was when i logged off last night.

They have had like a month to get this working? yet its broken, ahhaha.

[Ekelektra]

I guess it is showing the peak amount of users that they've had on since it started.

[Eric]

lol there's only around 2500 users online now but i reckon there'll be more users this weekend

[Demi]

The weekend will hit 6k.

[MKR&*42]

It shows the peak... it's not broken at all :L. To keep it constantly updated in-client would be a pain.

Besides, showing the peak makes you realise how agonisingly near you are to the goal and makes you go insane ;)

[Chris]

Left habbo on hotelview all of yesterday haha, wont bother again today though. May try the weekend if it's not done by then.

[TonyBest]

Have to agree, we can do better and lets hope that since the kids won't have school over the weekend it will be easier to achieve

[Seikou]

kind of glad we didn't hit it last night because i want my main account to be unbanned for the vip, hopefully we will hit 6000 soon though!

[tm]

They sent an email mailer out 2 hours ago. We *might* make the 6000 today, especially for this party at 4pm GMT.

Not shocked at all that the US timezone people didn't reach the target last night. The closest we got was 5400 at about 8pm GMT (peak UK time).

[TonyBest]

Right now its just at 4441 according to homepage, we MAY make it.

---------- Post added 03-08-2012 at 04:54 PM ----------

According to the official Blog, any1 who has been on since the challenge started will be rewarded the badge, franky trophy and 1 week VIP

This is correct. I'm surprised nobody has posted about the blog yet.

Habbo Blog: (http://blog.habbo.com/2012/08/03/chat-is-back/)

... all Habbos that have signed in since the challenge started on Wednesday 1st August until the challenge has been completed will receive a week of Habbo VIP free and a nifty Frank trophy ...

The longer it takes, the more common that trophy is going to be. There's definitely going to be way more than 6000 users who get it.

[AngusBreez]

This is correct. I'm surprised nobody has posted about the blog yet.

Habbo Blog: (http://blog.habbo.com/2012/08/03/chat-is-back/)

So that means if you sign in today, you will receive a reward when it is completed?

[TonyBest]

So that means if you sign in today, you will receive a reward when it is completed?

Yes, so long as you helped in any way in trying to get 6000 people on, you will get the reward.

[ColyTom]

That sounds good, hopefully today we will make it!

[Jarkie]

I think they have slightly paused it so they can get ready for the party.

[TonyBest]

They havent paused it, we just aint getting close to 5570 at all >.<

[MKR&*42]

Omg, it's a miracle. The trophy actually is tradeable. I've got it + the week VIP on .de (no badge though. :(). It also has an inscription:

http://screensnapr.com/e/SYUQR9.png

--

Oh, forgot it's in German. I think the trophy says something along the lines of "You are a true Habbo". -checks google translate-

"You are a true Habbo a". Yes, it's probably "You are a true Habbo" :L

[karter]

Too many badges? really? They release like 1 or maximum too badges per week. its never too many badges.

---------- Post added 04-08-2012 at 08:27 PM ----------

anyways...3752 online on a saturday evening..dont think we will get 6k today

[Michael]

Sundays are usually the most popular day on Habbo, especially in the evening.

[LiquidLuck.]

It's not that easy xD

[TonyBest]

It will be completely embarrassing if we cannot even reach the goal within one week

[Experting]

It is going to be hard, not even reached it yet ^_^

[Jarkie]

I am loving the frank Trophy :)

[TonyBest]

According to the homepage we need at least 760 more online

[-Nick]

Just figured it out...


I think you can use your clones :D sooo everyone use your clones we can do it just habbox forum :O :P

[Dean]

According to the homepage we need at least 760 more online

It's just not going to happen

[TonyBest]

Not unless we all use 2-3 clones it might.

[MKR&*42]

It'll be ages before this happens haha. If the mute hadn't been for 3 weeks+ they might not have lost so many members... considering they effectively destroyed global (habbo) news when they axed full length news articles, so many were uninformed about the return of chat sigh.

[TonyBest]

Tbh i gotta agree, the length of the mute caused alot of people to give up on Habbo as they couldn't wait any longer to be unmuted, and now that it is. We can clearly see how its affected the amount of people online a day.

[GoldenMerc]

lol @ people saying lets all clone, never the less trophy looks nice

[e5]

You do know they are doing this purely to get their numbers back up after everyone left for the mute!


Easy you say? Habbo havnt hit over 4.5 or 5k in the past.. 2 months? Maybe more.

Still one of the stupidest competition ive seen. They lost all their pop from bad management. Like a silly competition will make a difference >.<

Just like someone would pop their room with free stuff but its actually the hotel.

[xxMATTGxx]

We still haven't reached it? :P

[GoldenMerc]

Don't personally think we will get it until friday

[Eric]

doubt it will happen only if there's a celebrity visit or something

[Mikey]

Think they set the limit too high haha, there dreaming. Good luck with it Habbo. :)

[tm]

Last chance is going to be this party at 4pm BST today.

If we don't make it then, we might never!

[GoldenMerc]

That is current UK time. British summer time.
It's at 16:00 London time.

[TonyBest]

Just signing on now and barely 761 on at the time of posting.

Edit: After getting onto the client i found the Users logged in at once counter reset, but at 1486 and counting

[Michael]

Just signing on now and barely 761 on at the time of posting.

There was an maintenance, 3 minutes before you signed on or so!

[Chris]

Perhaps they'll lower it slightly if it's not reached.

[TonyBest]

I bet they may have to lower it to 5500 for us to even get the reward since we cannot reach 6000. Either way lets hope we get it tonight.

[MKR&*42]

Wow jus have the party whilst I'm at work Ty sulake ;l. They should lower the limit to 5k really... :P

[TonyBest]

5584 people currently on atm. We are so close, though they need to lower the needed number as thats all we'll get

[Michael]

5698 - Oh come on :(

2 minutes later: 5723

[Abdicators]

So close, but yet, so far.

[Xya]

5742, we only need 258

[Tidings]

americans will be logging on now, so we will probably do it tonight :)

[TonyBest]

The numbers have died down slowly, 5625 according to homepage, lets just hope we reach 6000

[AsFastAsYou]

5781. Come on, we need a few more users!! I want my trophy :(

[Jack!]

5780 still.

[TonyBest]

Guys, thats not how much people on atm, thats how much we had on at once, the correct number on atm is 5563

[Martin]

Hmm, its getting closer I guess :P Will get there eventually I'm sure!

[tylermunjkt]

im on to help lol Havent been on in agess!

[-Nick]

I think we were 50 users off it looked close :P umm I think habbo saw this thread and realised it wasn't resetting when a user logged of so 6000 different users just had to log on in different times, ;(

[Michael]

We could double six thousand if there was no retros.

[iFlame]

Another badge and another free week of VIP, woo cant wait :l

[GoldenMerc]

maybe they have run out of things to give away, thus so many god dam badges

[edible]

were close

[TonyBest]

So close now, we just need 270+

[Eric]

5772/6000 almost there

[edible]

We're on 4.3K atm. Seeing as last 7 days we've peaked at around 8-10PM I think this will be the day it's broke.

Heard someone say .ES are trying to do it for us too.

[MKR&*42]

Oh hasn't it been achieved yet? LMAO. This is taking a while.

If the lovely .es people are gonna help out, I'll take up Spanish irl just for them x

[edible]

Gone up 40 in a minute. The Hotel View thing goes up and down as a person comes on or off.

[sex]

Please don't do it till Tuesday guys I'm unbanned then lol

[Jarkie]

I can't bealive we haven't done this yet, lmao.

[JaiHo]

I can't bealive we haven't done this yet, lmao.

I can :p

[Nick]

This is just silly :\ We always get so close (around 5745) then boom it goes down.

[TonyBest]

This is truely embarrassing for the .Com hotel because we cant reach their expected numbers anymore.

[Unsuspected]

Just noticed the record has been removed from the hotel view...

so what now? do we get our prize or did we lose our chance?

[-Nick]

i would laugh if the present was a duck :L we are never going to do this but :D

[Michael]

Just noticed the record has been removed from the hotel view...

so what now? do we get our prize or did we lose our chance?

Lost our chance, obviously! Most of the other hotels reached target apparently

[TonyBest]

It seems stupid that they never lowered the count to about 5500 then we would of got what should of rightfully been our reward.

[Jarkie]

Just noticed the record has been removed from the hotel view...

so what now? do we get our prize or did we lose our chance?

Most likely lost our chance. Oh well lol.

[orientalframe?]

did we even get anywhere near 6000? :S

[Plebings]

did we even get anywhere near 6000? :S

fairly close, we got around 5800 at some point I think

[TonyBest]

We came as close as 5841 or something, but thats it.

[orientalframe?]

oh that's quite disappointing really hahaha

[Ekelektra]

We officially didn't make it but looks like we get the trophy anyway

http://i49.tinypic.com/16hpzbb.png

[Matt]

Looks good enough! Although i've been checking my inventory but nothing is there!!! :[

[tm]

To get the trophy you have to FULLY log out and log back in.

[Jarkie]

Looks good enough! Although i've been checking my inventory but nothing is there!!! :[

You need to log out completely, then re-log in, open client and it be there.

http://i158.photobucket.com/albums/t83/jarkie/20d300ba.png

And yes its tradeable :)

[Eric]

got the trophy lol

[Ribbonaire]

<3 I finally got it, its doesnt look that nice, but decent nonetheless.

[TonyBest]

Just got the trophy, but it was a shame we never managed to make the 6000, guess no week free VIP or badge for us :(

[:Act]

Nothing says 'We as a company have ****ed up and have no clue about how to run this place anymore' quite as much as them telling their users 'YOU didn't do the community challenge, YOU failed, all blame and guilt on YOU'...

Laughable. The fact we couldn't even hit 6000 users says it all: Staff have completely lost touch.

I don't understand how they expected things to go back to normal after like a month of no chat? As far as I saw there was no extra marketing, no extra advertising or any kind of information to say that Habbo was back on track (cough cough), other than perhaps one tiny email.. Not being funny but their marketing team have failed epically. I don't see why the onus of responsibility is on the users as a collective to drive people back, surely this job is exactly why staff are hired and paid? Either way, staff are clearly trying to play this down, but not even hitting 6000 users a few weeks after chat has returned is a really really bad sign. If they don't pull their finger our and do something serious soon, Habbo will have no where to go but down..

very true. brilliant post.

what was the free special gift that we were meant to get? not sure why there's 17 pages of discussion here? what's been happening? :D

[TonyBest]

The reward for completing the community challenge was meant to be the Frank Trophy, 1 Week's VIP and a Badge. However why couldnt they of just given us all that despite the fact its their fault we didn't meet their estimates on how many people they thought could come on at once.

so true! this deserves +rep

[iBlueBox]

I think they left it too much for the users to promote the game then themselves actually advertising much themselves.

HI CAN SOMEONE EXPLAIN PLEASE ????

Merged by laura (Trialist Forum Moderator): As they are on the same topic!

[GoldenMerc]

I got one too, don't understand

[MKR&*42]

The previous community challenge (removed yesterday) for Habbo.com was to get 6000 users online at once. We never managed to do that before the challenge ended, so this was given out as a consolation prize.

We missed out on a week free VIP, a badge and that trophy (but with a desc on it - I am a true Habbo or something similar).
