Lord Poddington III is Dead!

What does this mean for your November?

After the events of Habboween, the gang was exhausted...
However, their spirits were lifted when they received word that Neja's uncle, Thomas Poddington III was arriving in Habbo, only to be dampened when they were informed that Poddington was old, senile and a bit... eccentric.
And so, Poddington arrived early Wednesday morning, full of life and vitriol, he met us at reception, grumbled something about political correctness gone mad, and then spontaneously combusted.
"Is he dead?" Asked Puffin?
"Check for a pulse!" Shouted Neja
"Where?" Asked Kitano, "On the arm in the chicken frier, or the leg stuck to the ceiling fan?"
Poddington was dead. In his will (which he handily kept in his suitcase, as well as a small lawyer) he left Puffin a controlling stake in his business: The Habbo Radio & Television Broadcasting Network Corporation (THRTBNC for short), owned and operated by Poddington's Brown Plasto Company.
He left Neja a bag of jelly beans, so she was happy. Kitano never met the man, and he got nothing. Why would he leave Puffin his TV company and not Neja? We don't know, he was eccentric.
Things were not looking good for HTV lately, or ever, due to the absurdly high production values attached to their shows. Their last reality TV show, Cannibal Island lasted only one episode, and the rest of their schedule were re-runs of CSI: S****hrope, Vampire Hospital,Teenage Werewolf Lawyers, Homeless Cop: The Next Generation, some bad Big Brother rip off and last, but not least, Poddington had signed on some deadbeat chef with a no-good show...
Puffin sat down and stared at the horizon. She needed to boost the ratings, and fast! This was her dream, and she needed to prove to herself and to others that she could do it, run her own TV network, control the airwaves, be able to create new and original programming to challenge the complacent masses...
But Puffin wasn't alone: Kitano would help as a show runner, Neja would be a page, The 4th Habbo would still be a janitor and ChronoZomfg, well he just may end up with his own late night talk-show.
Best of all, she had a whole hotel full of talented and creative juggernauts to call on, some of whom had already worked on pilot scripts of their own just a few weeks ago...
Yes, the future was looking bright already, although that could just be a side effect of impossible pipe dreams...
First things first, though...
#1 - Unlock Poddington's Office
#2 - unpack boxes and boxes of equipment
#3 - and rename the company (should be priority 1 really!) ---
HELP US RENAME THE STATION!
Puffin had asked her trusted co-Staffers to help her come up with a new name, THRTBNC was just too much of a tongue twister to ever catch on... However, as is the case in a democractic setting, no one can agree and in the end, it has to be put to a vote.
This is where you come in!
