Rare Names?

[AgnesIO]

Anyone got any idea what happens when the hotels merge. The hotels all have different names for certain rares.

Maybe they'll just like have different names if they're from different hotels.

I've been reading the Canadian help tool about the Merge and i think i could take a good guess at this.

First quote taken:

"Your badges and achievements will stay as is. If the same badge has been issued in both Hotels with the different description, the description of your badge will stay as it's now."

Even though badge will have different descriptions and names they will stay as is, so maybe that will be for Furni too.

Second quote:

"Having said that, we know the values of some items will crash, and we're working on solutions to remedy that (in addition to marking the origin of the furni, which will be visible to everybody)"

The marking of items means that we no what country they first came from so maybe the name will also stay the same as the origin countries name.

Names change all the time, it happens when they update and stuff so i can;t see it having much of an effect. Plus it maybe better to change the names so there isn't confusion between different Habbos from different countries as to which rares they are asking/talking about.

If they do mark the furni with the origin of said country there's going to be some big scams. Say for a purple dragon which is worth loads over here and not as much over there. You could put a UK purple dragon in your shop but the when trading you could put in a CA dragon. Values are gonna be so confusing!

In addition to what got posted above by -Danube-, this is referring to the .ca/us merge but I assume the same rules will apply:

How about my furni and rooms?
Your stuff is safe! Everyone will get to keep their rooms and furni. Furni will stay in the rooms just as they are now.

We've noticed in the forums speculations about users with the same name being able to access each others items during the merge. Don't worry, we won't let anything like this happen.

There's a couple specific item types which we're still working to resolve (most notably old photos and teleporters) and we will inform you exactly what to expect to happen to your room when we have all the details.

I reckon there'll be [uk] and so on in the item name. From what I read though, the items will retain the name they have now on their respective hotels in the new big hotel. Seems logical considering it specifically states that the badge texts will stay the same (furni and badge names and descriptions are stored in the same file [external texts]).

Rooms will be confusing too if all furni is marked. Say a casino is full of T's on the pop list some people will be thinking WOW! and others will think it's cheap and rubbish. In order to see what someone's worth, you'll have to know the value of all furni in all the different hotels? Is that right? So know the value of a throne (UK) throne (AUS) throne (US) etc?. I can't get my head around it :S

It's probaly just gonna be a big merge, market crash, loads leave, many get over it. Thats what i can see happening. We can guess all we like but we'll just have to wait, it's natural to guess the unknown though.

Does that mean there will still be casino's?

I don't see why they have to move to US, have you seen it? It's like a retro, fish, globe and duck trophys are still there and icms are called 'blue ice cream makers and stuff.

A lot will leave after this i'm sure, but if name's do change and they don't specify what habbo they come from then you could have a 0.3cs icm in your hand or a super rare one it's a load of crap
