    Was there ever a prize for champs league 12/13? I seem to remember coming in top 3 and then it fading into obscurity.

    On top of that, it's a two way street. If you win a prize, you shouldn't expect them to remember that they owe you something especially if your name is in a long list of people (comps winners for instance), you need to ask for it sometimes as well.
    I don't think there's much of a problem with competition prizes. They send you a PM and you reply stating whether you want your prize or not, it's quite simple. I think the issue is not getting prizes after a big competition has taken place rather than the normal competitions by the comps department.

    Who funds habbox as a whole and who funds each department respectively?

    Does habbox buy coins
    We get X amount of credits from Jin every so often when he is able to give us any. That will last us for so long and any of the other credits come from other people who have donated or out of own pocket. No we do not use the black market to fund ourselves.

    HxEE winners will be paid by this evening.

    Well I was using that as an example rather than saying that they're not any good at giving prizes out. Just pointing out that people need to make the effort to go get their prize too. It's a shame really, I would've loved to have the option of those donation rooms where you can just drop it in!

    I asked do you buy coins not do you use black market

    but why not? buying credits on black market isn't even against the habbo t&cs
