Suggestion

Hiya,

I think something like the summer spectular should happen in the future e.g in the next few months. It wouldn't be as big as the spectular but it could involve points with normal Habbox events organised by event organisers and the people with the most points at the end (1st, 2nd, 3rd place) win a big prize, e.g forum vip or a trophy?

The HxSS is so good they should have like a winter games which follows the same sorta idea. Out of interest, was forum posting / activity stats enhanced through the HxSS period? Obviously the risk with doing this is that the special feel of HxSS wears off and then HxSS won't be as good as it has been over the last few years.

This. A Habbox Event Championship-stylesque feature is not needed, it's just more hassle in my opinion & it devalues the fun of Habbox Summer Spectacular, since alot more effort goes into that in 2 weeks than anything else. I can see straight away that EO's yeah, they'll put on the events but it wouldn't hold the same sort of audience that the bigger Habbox events do.

I think there was an easter extravaganza and there were plans for a winter one, can't remember why it stopped now. Events department should do more big events though, it's just a case of the right time and the right idea, which is easier said than done.

Agreed with this. Gotta spread em out really. Something every month (this is the same sort of thing I said to Garion when he wanted a "big event" every month) just makes the bigger thing look smaller and instead of something "more exciting" to look forward to, it's just the same old, same old. I do believe B@S is still occuring this year but I think that's just going to be events, and it just depends how they will be doing Christmas me thinks.

HxSS is really tiring and I know that Roxy won't be wanting to do something huge (kk I lie, she's always in for new things) but they don't have all the time in the world either. I didn't do that much this year for HxSS but I know for one it was the busiest fortnight of the year from my point of view.

I do think though there could be more bigger events. Not on the same scale as HxSS but maybe like a Habbo quest that is done over a few days rather than one hour. HxSS takes a hell of a lot out of people (ask Garion...) and I don't think it would be practical to run them monthly. Twice a year maximum I'd say. However, bigger events, yeah.

Doing more than one HxSS (in a way) a year is going to be too much in my opinion. I think HxSS being once a year is ideal and always gets people want to take part and have some fun for the two weeks in the summer holidays. Normally after summer everyone get back to reality with school/college/uni and then they have to balance that and Habbox out. It would be a big risk if we did try it.

But bigger and better events is possible and any suggestions for them is welcome at any time.

This has been done in the past and it's something I put forward to the powers that be when I was an Events Organiser. Who knows if anything will come of it..

A few years ago, we had these very often; for example the Valentines, Easter, Christmas, B@S, etc. but they seem to have faded off and been forgotten about. I think the short, week-long, themed events were brilliant.

With school starting again, why not hold a week of school themed events. Each day, have one event relating to each subject. "Addition" for Maths, "Falling Furni" for PE, "Shout it Out" for English. Use the points system which was used oh-so-long-ago and then have an overall winner

Posting activity increased quite a bit and there's been a lot of new members posting around too, HxSS is definitely good for HabboxForum.

I agree that the HxSS was a big effort and stuff although I think there should be week-long things like this in each major school holiday, you already cover Summer with the HxSS which is 2 weeks and Easter Extravaganza which is a week (and needs more emphasis to be like HxSS) and then there should be a week long one at christmas.

Could probably do things like it in Half Terms too, especially in the winter months when more people are indoors.

I'm sure last year there was going to be a winter olympics :S

But yeah I like the short term events over half term and stuff they're really fun. Think we should do more stuff like pantos, that was great
