One thing I'd like to say is how much better is Habbox already with Habbo giving fansite interaction? I'm not sure if it's due to the maze but Habbox Live currently has about 120 listeners? When did we see that last?

I know a lot of staff helped with the maze in the short time they had so really well done to that. Hopefully Habbo will continue the interaction as it is really great.

It really is such a great thing and long overdue really. Finally habbo are listening and doing something which brings communities together, encourages fansite usage and interaction and its just great to see. Habboxlive is really benefiting so much right now, I know events have been fairly busy tonight too! It's a fantastic way of spreading the world of what Habbox is about, getting new members interested and showcasing what we do best really and hopefully all these people will keep coming back after the week has ended and the longterm benefits will be fantastic. It's really worked out so well and I would like to thank everyone who was involved with making that maze- its absolutely fantastic and made in such a short space of time too! This really is such an exciting day for Habbox I think! :)

Am I right in saying that all staff have done is gave someone on Habbox a give badge wired trigger thing and promote it on the front page? I wouldn't exactly call it staff interaction, but it's a start :P

This is so exciting, I really hope habbo keeps this up and continues to promote their fansites. It's really great how popular the maze is doing and it's obviously helping out other aspects of habbo. It's just like old times! I have noticed that the events are extremely popular tonight along with the radio. Hopefully we'll gain a lot more users visiting everything to do with habbox, especially some new users on the forum would be great!

no they copied the last room to put the wired in. they gave us a banner on the home page, and space on public rooms. they also added the queue feature to the main room so people can get in if is full, a little more than giving wired lol

Ahh, the public room spot is a decent feature :) Nevertheless it's still a five minute job and not exactly the interaction we had many years ago, but it's definitely an improvement over the last two or three years! :)

And is this a fansite thing or just a badge to popular event rooms? Because I'm sure other event rooms got badges and they weren't tied to a fansite?

Habbo will be highlighting a specific fansite each week. This is better than we have had for the past couple of years for sure - They are showing interest and actually want to work with us in ways. Powertoo replies to emails on a daily basis - We didn't even have that when Jason was put in charge of fansites.

Better than totally ignoring our existence completely or seeing us as a threat to their money-making schemes! Really impressed with Habbo staff atm.
The maze is very well designed especially for the very limited time they had putting it together so should be very pleased with themselves :)

Oh yeah, I forgot to add. Well done guys with the maze! Considering you had such a small time putting it together, I congratulate you all on it who helped and spent their time making it. It's a really great maze :D

Yeah I must agree the maze is great and in no way did I think it had been rushed or anything, seems as though it took ages to build :P. Was good to see a lot of staff contributing to it as well :).

Great news for Habbox and Habboxlive doing so well this evening too, hopefully this is only the start of the staff interaction with fansites. More stuff like this would benefit sites so so much, glad it done well on the first evening. Well done staff and all those involved. :)

So I did the maze.. some of it was more tedious than fun (banzai tiles twice?) The first room was a poor decision, as the rollers are so difficult to even start on - should probably have started banzai tiles there or something just to stagger the amount of people progressing. The quiz questions were slightly odd, although I presume they were like that to attract listeners? On another note, @xxMATTGxx didn't Habbox open in 2004? At least that is what I thought, and also it turns out when the Habbox habbo group says it was opened - yet the answer to the quiz is 2003?

It seems slightly odd that Habbox hasn't capitalised on the (apparent) popularity of WIRED mazes beforehand though. It certainly seems like an obvious thing to continue, offer a large credit prize (obviously the maze would need to be bigger). You could get away with selling "Fast Passes", generating revenue for Habbox. Furthermore, it would enable mass advertising for Habbox (like the "SEE ANSWERS AT HABBOX.COM/ANSWERS"), making it a win win situation, at least in my eyes? Is there some sort of hiccup here?

First negative post about the maze. Anyway, the whole maze was completed within a day due to the rush decision of being able to host such an event and able to get a badge at the end of it. The telephrase was done the way it was because it actually meant people had to go our site if they wanted the answers with ease and it worked great last night and will continue to work throughout the week. Habbox opened in the year of 2003 and this will be the 10th year (Jin said so himself)

We cannot sell fast passes in these types of rooms - Habbo do not allow it. If it wasn't being promoted by Habbo with a badge at the end of the event then we could have probably made money from it in that sort of sense. To be honest, the whole thing has been a good success for Habbox.

I am with you on the fast passes thing. I was in a season run long before all this badge business started and thought "look at these fast passes selling like crazy" at rip-off prices. I asked matt but you have to recognise how expensive these things are to make - they have to look really good for people to even bother splashing out - with absolutely no guarantee that it'll be popular (and therefore generate a profit).

I wasn't being negative - just highlighting what could be better if it is kept open. I said I suspected that was why the quiz questions were how they were - so I understand that - clearly it is a smart move. My knowledge was always that it opened in 2004 (presumably because of the forum :L) - I was just pointing out that Habbox's own habbo group claims it opened in 2004, so somewhere along the lines there has been miscommunication.

In relation to fast passes, I suggested keeping the maze open afterwards - I know you cannot sell "fast passes" now, however would it not be a possibility in the future? I did say that SOME of the maze was more tedious than fun, having said that if some of the other mazes had their own forums that I had an account on, I would say the same thing - as I personally am more in favour of ones that require some sort of "skill", as opposed to the pure luck that areas such as Banzai tiles create.

I agree that the maze has clearly been successful, the second paragraph to my post was just suggesting possibilities for the future (rather than the chance of letting it die on its feet after one week, and then moaning that habbo does nothing for fansites?) What has been created is certainly great for one days work, and congratulations to those who took part in its creation.

We don't have any current plans on keeping the maze open after this week. We could look into it I suppose and organise it with people - The issue is a lot of the furni in these rooms are owned by other people which is why all the rooms are group rooms. Which means if they want the furni back then then we would have to change it. I know Absently; asked me about a maze being promoted by Habbox after we have finished with this one - So we could look into that route instead.

Definitely correct there. I think it would be relatively easy to create a very good first room. I would hope with the backing of Habbox a maze would do well, after all they are expensive - therefore you won't find MUCH competition. Just an idea that could help Habbox' long term success.

Just out of interest, realistically how much do you think a GOOD maze would cost - as in, one that would compete with the big players?

I'm not too sure on costs. Maybe Red; sex; and anyone else who may have an idea can come up with an estimate of how much a good maze would cost. It's going to be well over 800 credits I guess.

800? If that is the case, that is certainly doable. I was expecting at least double that.

As I say, I don't know what others think, or what is logistically possible - but given how habbo players seem to love wired mazes nowadays, it does seem (at face value) like it could be a real winner.

I didn't say 800 as an exact figure. I said "It's going to be well over 800 credits" - Meaning it will be over 800 credits for sure. Sorry if that didn't make sense :P

Oh I see, obviously I understand that you yourself (as stated) don't really know. I just presumed by well over you had got some sort of reasonable idea haha. If well over is double it would be doable, surely there are a few ("high") users on here who could manage to work on that.

Or we could ask Mk if they could add a quiz round early on in their quiz with guidance to Habbox for answers, and Habboxforum etc - in return for a little advertisement on Hx..

Personally on the idea of the fast pass games I would happily do a work on that myself due to a lot of experience in designing of automated wired games and stuff, and also have a load of useful bulks for building with rly! I know me & char were working on one recently actually and it's a pity we stopped with it cause that could be quite useful but I would personally be very in support of that especially due to the massive revenue from them

If I am honest, I had sort of been imagining a run anyway. A wired maze wouldn't have fast passes, would it? Not sure how they would anyway.

If this was accepted (which providing it is good, it should be), it would be great to have a few rounds that require interaction with Habbox - obviously in return one would expect Habbox to advertise the run (free fast pass competitions, anyone?)

wired mazes are only as good as your ideas are

plus how much you have to spend

(expect to see 1000c go like nothing)

though now wired is tradable mazes are a lot more affordable

shame i probably won't have time to do this maze. I will try if I get chance

Or we could ask Mk if they could add a quiz round early on in their quiz with guidance to Habbox for answers, and Habboxforum etc - in return for a little advertisement on Hx..
Temple Run is sponsored by HFFM :(. When I saw that, I was wondering why Habbox didn't offer sooner seeing how popular it was - as I'm assuming it was HFFM who approached them because I didn't notice any HFFM advertisement the first time I went there :P.

As for fastpass, that'd only work in a room with the 5 minute countdown. The Habbox Maze allowed people to start as soon as they entered the room, so you can't sell a fastpass unless you sell it to make you skip the first room :P. And I do agree with what you've said about the first room probably not being the best choice as the first room because of the amount of people - really was hectic each time I went in there! How comes the maze had to suddenly be built in one day? Did you not know in advance that you'd need one? If there was longer to make it then things like that could have been tested and sorted, e.g. by adding a timer in the first room so people can't go in so quickly at the same time :P.

Definitely - as I say I would use the WIRED thing, but make it more of a run than a maze. Shame HFFM is sponsoring the Temple Run, but no problem - just make our own.

In relation to the maze, whatever Habbox say there was more than one day where it COULD have been done, if a decision was made faster - but that is the past, so it would probably be worth looking towards what can be done to really capitalise off of what has happened.

The maze rooms could have done with Stickies as half the time Wired broke or something and none of us knew what to do. That with the Marble Tiles and we have to get to the Log, none of us knew that at first and the fact when I sat on the Log it didn't teleport me.

I don't agree with having rooms not owned by Habbox Staff let alone Managers and I really think it should have just been kept to Matt owning it like that's what I thought was happening?

Also, I don't think anyone remembered the Telephrase Maze I constructed myself, I funded myself with creating the room and giving prizes each week and I think the only person who had any interest was Inseriousity.; so Habbox (or News in this case) did have some Wired rooms they could have used, namely Zak;'s room (bring back official Habbox rooms now) and the Telephrase Maze etc.

Also a Fast Pass could easily be sold in a Maze, like you said skipping the first room as that's the general thing. You could sell it and basically the person can go in a Group Gate and just teleport to skip the room etc. :P.

Also, I don't think anyone remembered the Telephrase Maze I constructed myself, I funded myself with creating the room and giving prizes each week and I think the only person who had any interest was Inseriousity.; so Habbox (or News in this case) did have some Wired rooms they could have used, namely Zak;'s room (bring back official Habbox rooms now) and the Telephrase Maze etc.


There was only one room that wasn't owned by Habbox Staff I believe which was sex;? But he has temp. staff permissions anyway. Stickies could have helped but at the same time in those rooms you could have just tried the room to see what would happen and then you would get it straight away. Isn't exactly rocket science really :P

It is crap,

was in middle of doing the telemaze room on the habbox summer spec thing and boom Internet turns off, it's not even worth doing again for the badge.

Wired breaking is beyond our control.......... it's because there is large amounts of people using it that its glitching. Not much anyone could do lol. Most rooms are pretty obvious on what to do also i thought

and as for managers owning them.. i think 2 managers offered to help when we were building it lol.. and the only reason mine was used was because it was similar to kirsts and we couldn't use hers lol. you have to remember we has literally 18 hours to do this, there wasn't really time to work out all the small errors you seem to be nit picking at

It's because there was only a day to build the whole thing and I couldn't help because I was out all day on that day and I'm sure a lot of other people were also unable to help because of it only being one day to build it all :(.

And as I said earlier and what is still unanswered - why was there not longer than a day to prepare for this :S?

We had a bit of an issue with some confirmation and we needed a few things confirmed before we could proceed. Hence why the rush of the maze creation and we wanted to make sure it was done and to be honest, considering it is pretty ideal for what it is. I've seen many people saying they have had fun, enjoyed it and it was good for them. It could be better yes but it wasn't like some massive failure and has been a success story.

For next time we will make sure we won't have the same rush on whatever we plan on doing.

Oh yeah it's definitely still a great maze, and like I said before, I definitely wouldn't have thought it was all made in one day :P. I was just curious to know, as if there was a little longer then there wouldn't be some of the few problems there are.

Of course people have enjoyed it - depending on your taste, it is a good maze - for me personally I prefer the non luck games - having said that if it was permanent that would be essential.

Anyway, onwards and upwards - time to capitalise off the success!

Because I'm awsum lol, and I was actually wondering why your room was used when your not staff lool was like OMG is MattG desperate cause I know habbox is like ultra strict with these things lol, but one room that confused people was the wired telephrase but where you had to name furni in the left side, cause when people first got the first one they didn't know what to do on the end bit loo,

There won't be delays next time cos we'll know the drill so we'll be better prepared. :)

Temple Run is sponsored by HFFM :(. When I saw that, I was wondering why Habbox didn't offer sooner seeing how popular it was - as I'm assuming it was HFFM who approached them because I didn't notice any HFFM advertisement the first time I went there :P.

As for fastpass, that'd only work in a room with the 5 minute countdown. The Habbox Maze allowed people to start as soon as they entered the room, so you can't sell a fastpass unless you sell it to make you skip the first room :P. And I do agree with what you've said about the first room probably not being the best choice as the first room because of the amount of people - really was hectic each time I went in there! How comes the maze had to suddenly be built in one day? Did you not know in advance that you'd need one? If there was longer to make it then things like that could have been tested and sorted, e.g. by adding a timer in the first room so people can't go in so quickly at the same time :P.

I actually wanted Habbox to be official at first for temple run if they let me. No one in HxHD told me who to go to :(

I'm surprised they didn't tell you actually. They should have at least said xxMATTGxx or Inseriousity. for sure.

Hiring tara is like hiring bradtheladlong as a forum super mod
never the less the maze seems to be running smoothly, Are Habbox allowed as many "events" in the event tab? We should so have a usergroup for room builders, or something that'd be so nice, have a maze, temple run what ever, have a few rooms that bring people in. I mean own the account "Habbox" and make group rooms I guess?
