This is something I do not understand. After seeing how well the Summer Spectacular went why doesn't habbox do campaigns like this more often? I know it takes alot of planning but It can be done easily if all the habbox staff work together.
These campaigns seem to gain alot of publicity and the habbox community enjoy them, so why not do more? I know for a fact that habbox gets enough donations to do more campaigns.
Because how many times of year is there a period where people have the ability to run and attend events 12-9 for 14 days? :PQuote:

However there is the Christmas Bonanza the Halloween festivities, Easter Eggstravaganze, usually something in late February that I forget what we call but its during that break.
Glad to hear you enjoyed it :)
They'd get repetitive and everyone will be like "oh another one? :$"
Best to keep them at certain points in the calendar imo :)

in that thread he says you should do cooler things like apprentice, which is right! Take a look at Hababble.com they have non-stop campaigns and that is why they are growing in popularity!
I do agree that we should do more 'big'events, but as was said in the other thread, things that have already been done by someone else wouldn't be as effective as something unique, but thinking of that something unique is quite hard. MissAlice mentioned an olympics idea which I think is pretty good and wouldn't be the usual falling furni etc as the diving in the lido (if it's still there) could be incorporated aswell.
Something I used to like doing on other sites when i played habbo was quests, like trying to find something that had gone missing but I can't remember the last time Habbox did one of these, if ever. However, it would take a long time to create and also quite expensive to make it look good, then there's the prize aswell. Last october I did a haunted house type series of events to win the room worth 150hcs and just added a twist on some of the popular games, maybe that could be done a little more in some of the events too.
If Hx did so many of these big events it'd get tiresom. Other fansites will eventually run out of ideas and will be at a stand still.
With habbox, we do regular big events that top most other little events hosted by other fansites. The ammount we have now is right, you also have to think about staff. I know myself that after hxSS i was a bit tired of running events and its a bit unfair that you say you want more? Almost every holiday theres smoething going on and I think we've got it right
It's not like we need to do one every week, once a year would suffice.Quote:

Although we do stand out with the HxSS because of the points system aswell, something similar could be put into the Olympics idea if it goes ahead. As for your tiredness, that's ebcause the HxSS events are 12-9 or something every day, whereas not all other 'big' events have to be done like this, they could just be one or two events a day, or if a quest was created then no one would really have to be there to run it once it was up.
Yes I do agree that some different events would be wuite fun
