I could take a WILD guess and say that Puffin is from Netherlands? She did answer a question in the Q&A Monday once about it, she used to be a Manager on Habbo Netherlands and moved on to Habbo Canada.
That's as far as i know

I believe the USA, Canada and Australia, but I could be wrong.

Well if i remember correctly, the question & answer were something like:
Q: Why did you go away from Habbo Netherlands?
A: Because someone very special convinced me to.
(It might not be the exact answer & question, but it was something like that)

UK Staff are too expensive for Sulake. They can't hire people very cheaply here.

For some reason, I always think Fozzie comes from Europe and then came to Habbo AU... It's been years since I read the article introducing her.

redtiz works at the main sulake office though now, doesn't she? Or for them, rather then a specific hotel.

Who was CrestHawk then? I thought he was manager of the US hotel before the merge? Then I thought they took CA, AU, and SG managers to run the merged ones? That's just was my opinio I guess I was wrong.

After having been contracted to design a virtual game and chat called Lumisota (Snow Wars) for a Finnish ISP, Elisa, they were contracted for another project. They developed Hotelli Kultakala (eng. Hotel Goldfish) with a small team of developers and it was launched in August 2000 on the ISP's web portal.
Aapo and Sampo and Dee Edwards, an entrepreneur from the UK, wanted to create an international business based on the virtual hotel concept and worked on a plan in autumn 2000 and raised finance. By the end January 2001, Habbo Hotel had been launched in beta mode.

They didn't steal it, they used an idea (as all companies do) and developed it...they just happened to be successful.

And they're listed under Canada, Australia & USA because that's the hotels they came from yes. But I believe Puffin is from Holland originally.

Cresthawk was also a USA manager but like Lostie & Bucho I believe he was "let go" just before the merge.

Why are people saying Puffin is from Holland? She's Norwegian.
