Do something BIG Habbox!

Anniversary events

Murder mystery. Sadly not the big success I'd hoped it would be but that's the risk you take when you try to think outside the box and do something different than just another tournament. The plot had a link to the Habbox anniversary and it is part of the story. It also references Jin and Sierk's trip to the Northern lights and the whole 'are they a couple?' joke that only old Habboxers would get.

Retro week - Events department went back in time with their event rooms and hosted events as they would've been hosted by events organisers of old.

HxHD layout - Changed to an older version.

Forum Balloon Hunt - Balloons hidden round a forum.

Habbox Quiz - Quiz about Habbox history.

Happy Hour - Extra tokens twice on the anniversary

Competitions - Using old recurring competitions from the past.

HxL - Past DJs returning

Retro site - Old site with the old Habbox games on it

Forgive us for not getting overly excited about badly made rooms and two forum comps. It should have been a huge festival-type deal (especially with how much it was hyped up) with some effort put in and huge involvement all round, not an in-joke from the staff forums and a bit of recycling

[Inseriousity.]

That's still not nothing so it's stupid to suggest otherwise. I don't really see how a murder mystery is recycling, it was a totally brand new idea incorporating habboxlive, habbo and the forum. It didn't work as well as hoped but that is what happens when you try to think outside the box rather than recycling old ideas.

You can add a Habbo badge to that list too.

I used to love the Habbox dress up game

The Habbox Anniv. was pretty disappointing to be honest, I'm hoping the 10 year anniv of the forum (COUGH, COUGH - A FEW MONTHS AWAY) will be more exciting.

[Inseriousity.]

As the big event was the murder mystery and not as successful as hoped then I will concede that the anniversary was not likely to be as amazing as it should've been but definitely not 'nothing.' The general point about general management, myself included, not doing as much as should've been done - I've already discussed this in detail elsewhere - is definitely true though, it's a shame that a poor example had to be used. My biggest regret is not doing the achievements system myself. I will continue to say that I feel that matt's indifference or 'meh' attitude is not a conductive environment for getting things done but that doesn't mean it's impossible so the responsibility for that does have to lie with me, jade and possibly sam, laura, chris (time will tell).

I'm still waiting to see what Sam, Laura and Chris are going to do. I mean, to me at least, it still feels like the previous AGM team are in charge, there's literally nothing different at the moment. I mean, if Sam, Laura and Chris had their names changed to the previous AGMs, it would be exactly the same

I suppose I should wait for the first proper event (other than the awards I guess) to judge them. Just all feels slow at the moment. And how long has news been in limbo now? A month?

I still think that Mike's idea of a radio play would be really good. I'm going to write one and make whoever runs the radio make it! I just need a storyline mhmmm.....

*ALERT ALERT* KYLE IS ON HIS WAY TO FEEDBACK FORUM!




o/t i agree with everything that has been said, but an app is not needed lol...

[lawrawrrr]

I'm pretty much done with my first project as AGM, hoping to get it public this week! It's kinda hard being Content AGM, especially with some departments the way they are (sad face) but I'm hoping to make a difference in small ways, which I hope will be noticed.

V7, I've actually had a look now but like other people have said there's nothing anyone can do until it's finished coding, which is putting a massive block on Habbox as it's a... lets wait for that before we do anything, become kind of an excuse. I think for me that's actually kinda good, because I can't code at all, that means I'll be focusing on the current website and improving what I can rather than focusing all my energy on V7, although I do also have a couple things lined up for that.

I've spent this month reviewing all the departments under me as well, having a proper look round and will be providing comprehesive reports for the end of the quarter for improvement over the next few months, as well as action plans which have been sent to the other GMs and awaiting discussion.

Erm if anyone has any other questions or suggestions feel free to let me know! Although don't shout at me, I'm in a really good moo for once and kinda wanna stay that way!

oh and I think an app is unnecessary and the money could be better spent elsewhere (like paying a coder to get **** done)
