Is there still the region restart warning and countdown or do they just do a manual hard restart and you're logged out? Usually there will be pop up a warning with a countdown that the sim restarts in X seconds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was in Gangway the day it and the other 5 southern regions were given names - the re-start notice was different from what I'd seen before - an outlined white box in the middle of the screen with a countdown accompanied by a loud claxon noise. But then nothing was released! (Need to double-check what day that was..) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm in the area again and I kind of want to sit in the region I think will get released but I'm worried that I just get booted with no notice.... which in turn doesn't give any further advanced notice then sitting next to it and seeing it disappear.

Yep, I swore I read somewhere by Patch or A Mole that these days would be the release days. That is why there is always in influx of homes that pop up can sometimes interfere with the actual release.

Hence the abandons. So for anyone looking to catch a home, Monday's, Wednesdays and Friday (mornings SL time) is the time to do it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alumna Cornell Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 Well, here's some hopeful info. Last night, I searched for the names of the new regions in-world, and none of them was listed. Now, there are listings for San Alejandro, Gangway, Limevale, Walrus Beach, Beluga Sound and Porthole. Make of that what you will... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Juliet Ducrot Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 I can’t understand why I’m not even seeing the abandons. Is it because of the refresh limits and just having to be at exactly the right spot at the right time in the refresh timer? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You might be offered your own abandoned one I either abondon at once - in the hour after the release I got it in - or much later in the quiet not likely hours.

They go so fast it is rather a hit or miss on if you see them pop up or not, basically everyone is refreshing at different points so it may never pop up for you or you could be the first person it will pop up for. I sometimes don't see every single home/houseboat that comes up. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edwards Perry Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 Just logged on Friday morning 10:45 EST. second refresh was a linden home .. had to be an abandon cause I live next to the next 6 sims ready to be released and they are still bounded by the red boxing line. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leora Jacobus Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 I wish they would release and be done with it! Then I could catch ione or miss out and go about my business.

I’ve spent each of the release days (evening my time) playing this lottery. If I don’t get one tonight not sure when I’ll get another chance to dedicate any time to it, so fingers crossed something comes up before I go to bed! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've see that too.... don't know the meaning..... I'd venture to say that that region will not be up for release today anyway. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EmmeElise Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 If you find you arent seeing them at all,stop your refresher. Wait 1 minute and 20 seconds,and restart it. When I was looking for Bellisseria, I found that the chime didnt sound for up to 5 seconds after target found,so your eyes actually need to register Bellisseria and your click thru needs to be done before that chime ever sounds. Just my experience. Good luck everyone! 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They've been there for a while. They are used by the moles to do accurate sizing and placement. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
