[Room Builders] (-Get in here!) Info & Pics

[HOSKO02]

@Kyle - when was competition room design open to all? All I've seen similar to this Room Builders feature is the room testers group @jimi was involved in. It might have a tendency to get elitist, especially as there are seemingly prizes for the points system within the group, the point of this thread is to spread the contribution from more people and so try make it more inclusive, rather than exclusive, which it could easily become down the line.

Well IIRC there was a game design comp not long ago that a number of people submitted games to, including a couple of members of this group actually (@Volunteer; etc), but what I'm referring to is the incentivised room design competitions in general -- the bare bones of what this scheme actually is. They seem to have scrapped the (admittedly flawed!) weekly/monthly room design vote-based competitions and replaced it with this, only allowing the 'best' a shot at whatever prize is on offer; be it a badge or simply having your room used for a quest or whatever. What about those that didn't get into this supercool uberleet room designer group? Are they not worthy of the aforementioned room designer points?

I'm gonna go ahead and assume that it's you who's decided to be inclusive rather than whoever's directing this thing so props to you for sharing the love. Don't assume my first post was aimed at you because it most certainly was not, you're one of the good guys!

I'm wondering whether the two pics you posted are supposed to be related because you'd think that if that was the inside it would at least be the same shape as the outside... amirite? man, I should be in this group.

ANYONE WHO NEEDS SNAKES FOR THEIR CNY QUEST ROOM I HAVE ABOUT 20, LET ME KNOW.

Lol, half of those people can't build rooms to save themselves. Shame really, Habbo should of got users who have won room building competitions in the past into the group as they know they can build rooms.

So angry I was banned when this all happened, another reason Habbo is going down-hill.

Habbo is going downhill because you was banned? This the same for every service you get banned on? Not just you breaking the rules, maybe?

Obviously you haven't been reading ban threads and just try to correct people in the habbo section. I was banned for something I never did, which is just typical Habbo. Appealed it and so now the 6 months wait for a reply starts.

Please don't comment about it if you know nothing about it. Thanks!

Powertoo has said that applications for this group will re-open at some point, just because you didn't get in first time doesn't mean you wont next time.

I swear the second picture is Rakker's Cullen House lol?

Plus I think a system where the public can give suggestions and feedback is a good idea, but would probably end up getting abused by bored 13 year olds who have nothing better to do with their time.

@Kyle - True, but they are expanding the group in the future or perhaps shaking it up if people regularly fail to contribute, I'd agree that a hotel wide room task would be the best option, I bet they've been working on this model for a while though, they must know where they're taking it, or maybe not like most ventures! Only time will tell I suppose.

The rooms in the pics are the group room that members get entry into (powertoo), the lower one is the winter garden through the teleport, owned by powertoo, supposed to be the external view of the first room I guess. (I've not screencapped my entry to the comp because it makes sense to keep it hidden before the quest). these are meant to be hang-out spaces to kindle the flames of healthy competitive sociability amongst members, except it's dead most of the time.

More people should be allowed to partake I agree, Habbo'd argue that a small minority building the rooms avoid exposure to them to the majority until the quest, but one could easily argue that entries from the majority sourced from alternate points in the 'cloud' as it were, could also be just as hidden from a similar portion of Habbos in the same way, as the same amount will be chosen for the quest either way.

This is what the room attempts to distill a bit, bring Habbos that want to help into contact with the members.
