Lottery

[David]

I think it needs more publicity, I can't speak for on client but I don't see anything on the forum apart from a thread buried in CNB and @Inseriousity.;'s signature. A forum notice wouldn't go wrong really at the very least

Didn't someone from management say that Habbox relies on it in someway or another? could be wrong.
Is the whole idea just being left to die out or what?

Lottery still does exist I see Myke asking people when he's on Habbo. I think it would be good if EO's mentioned it somewhere in their event and maybe direct them to the CNB on the forum for a look at the thread. I think definitely do something like this in the HxSS too.

I don't see any other managers advertising but that might just be me not going on Habbo the whole time.

Lottery is an on-client thing. It's not really much use advertising it on the forum and so advertising and time are better spent on the place where it matters most.

It hardly takes more than a few minutes to post a notice. I dont know how thats not "worth the time"

Events is an on-client thing as well - Shall we stop posting announcements in CNB then? I would agree in terms of posting as a reminder or even doing a notice about it every now and then. Won't cause any harm and reminding people about it is always a win win regardless of what it is. But that's my view!

Most of the people who buy tickets are actually Habbox members, not posting anything on the forum seems like a frankly ridiculous idea. Even if you think that the main advertising should be on Habbo, a forum post or notice every now and then can't go amiss? Otherwise everyone will just end up forgetting about it.

I try to sell as many tickets as I can, but with other managers taking the bulk (rosy in hxhd especially) it's very difficult for site-based departments like News or Content to sell quite as many tickets.

But what's the point if a notice doesn't really have any impact on ticket sales? That'd be like advertising a butcher's in a mosque. It only takes a couple of seconds to stick up a poster advertising it but wouldn't necessarily improve trade! We will continue to advertise on Habbo and push it there where it actually makes a difference.

It may be in-client but it couldn't hurt to remind people via the forum that it's still happening, a notice takes a short amount of time to do whilst reaching a large, habbo-using, audience.

Advertisement is advertisement at the end of the day.

Nothing major but:

Myke = Monkey/Staff AGM Myke

Are you suggesting that every single HxF user who also has an interest in the client only goes on to hang around in HxHD? Because unless that's the case and you can prove it then you're almost certainly missing out on a huge number of potential entrants by not letting the main userbase know about the lottery. No-one's saying to stop advertising it on the client, just a suggestion that also telling forum users (many of whom probably aren't in HxHD all that much and therefore wouldn't otherwise hear of it) would be a good idea
