    Hmmmmmm 😊This is all very mysterious. If you were on the land page just before and on the hour of that release you would have seen something- I think so. Perhaps not houses though as sometimes there are a lot of trads per region  but as stated earlier not the case for last night. I can't work out the problem here....it would be great for you to get a home asap! WHat time zone are you?

    No worries... it's just run n' miss or total random. Hehe  I've been stay up long enough and pay attention to this forum, in-world Chat group and couple of my friends to let me know.   I tried to follow a trick to stand there before restarted the region.  All of them did not work.  So I assumed it's just random.  Atlantic time zone. (6 in the morning right now)

    This is right but your mouse seems very slow - like the sensor might be slow. I know for every drop down click you are doing I've done two. In the time it's taking to drag the mouse to the dropdown my mouse is already at the list. Does that make sense? I don't mean to say you are too slow but the mouse is moving slower than others clicking away...thats all I can see that is different to what I do 

    I do think its strange you saw nothing at all but I did notice less after abandoning. How long does your logout and login process take? Most people have theirs pre saved like the name of their house. My logout / login takes about 4 seconds. I guess I take about 15-20 seconds to do one round of refreshing. Counting slowly in my head (reliable method!) perhaps just some land page practice and a more sensitive mouse? 

    Nope, it's not.  My video capture was a bit of lag that makes my mouse looked like slow, but it wasn't.  I had to move my mouse cuz I don't like gyazo capture to film my screen, it lags.  Anyway, I used both hands... left hand with a mouse on this menu and right side, I used my middle finger to press F5 to refresh... repeatedly until 9th refreshed.  I then re-logged again.  Repeated.  I don't need auto-refresh.  Plus my browsers are updated.  I always cleaned the caches and history.  I believed when a person who got a house before I hit the refresh because it's only 9 seconds and there were only 4 trads which was normal.  I thought there were more than 4.  I had no idea how many Trads they release.  If it was more than 20 or so, I would have a chance to grab it.

    Did you refresh multiple times within 5-10 seconds?  I think someone once mentioned that these days the average time for an entire region to be claimed is about 7 seconds.  

    Though even if your refreshes were a bit more than 10 seconds apart, given the abandons, if you are refreshing at release time, I'd expect you to maybe at least see one.

    I hit F5 fast as possible.. I'd say about 2 to 4 seconds per page.  I guess I should film it to show you what I did.

    The houses went in a matter of seconds as there were only 4 on that region the rest were house boats.

    Only 4... That's why!  It went out so fast like a blink of eye.  But strange is I don't see any houseboats at all.  Odd.  So which means it is total random to everyone, not at the same time, I guess.

    Are you using an auto-refresh add-on or manually refreshing?  Actually, in either case, since a release is typically all snapped up far less than 30 seconds (even less than 15 seconds the majority of the time), the odds are actually against most folks ever seeing a Bellisseria home except during the huge many-region releases.

    100% manually by press F5 from my keyboard and sometime click on "Reload" the page.  I tried both.  I don't use auto-refresh at all.

    What browser are you using?  Also when you refresh you have to make sure you click on the drop down arrow beside Meadowbrook, it doesn't always show Bellisseria first you sometimes have to click the drop down menu to see it.

    Firestorm, Chrome AND iPad.  Plus I checked the drop down menu every refresh to make sure.

    I just attempted the very scary abandon and catch from an alt that is loosing their premium account and I was able to do it. I didn't see anything through my first 10 refreshes but after the relog the house popped up and I was able to grab it. I did it at 10:20pm slt

    Congrats!!!  I saw a trad while ago but I was too late.. maybe it was you? lol  Anyway, I hope I get this trad soon as possible.  I need the luck right now.

    Bakes On Mesh - Releasing Soon!

    I am so excited!  I have tons of old skins which I never delete (since maybe 2006)  2 days ago, I played with them.... some of them look... "wow" on my Lelutka head but haven't try on Genus yet!  But the rest of them belong to the trash due bad textures or qualities.  I can't wait to see all the creators to create a fantastic makeups or others for layers!  I now will able to wear eyeliners + eye shadows + dimples + moles + many others together on my face.  Layers are what I need the most!  Thank you for making a great feature for us all again!

    I GOT A HOUSE!!!

    I am oldbie too though younger than you. I joined April 2007 and have (with exception of a few months) NEVER been premium, nor have my alts of which I have a lot, a family of seven, six sisters and a brother, grown over the years ;)

    Only when I heard of the new SSP continent I made Leora premium (for three months) later in the first rush for houses I made three of her sisters premium (each 9,50 - the most expensive way) and when the month expired I degraded two of them back to Basic Account and the third, my youngest, who had managed to get the best house I upgraded to a full year Premium. We all are a group and live as a happy family in this house - till Leora will be able to grab an even better one.

    She is the one that changed a lot trying to  find something better and finally was left with NOTHING. In this second rush for the boats I hoped to find a better house and when a house appeared on my screen I made my brother Premium, but after lots of ERRORS he ended up with a houseboat - and Leora with nothing. Now I play around with a houseboat for a while, buying extensions in the MP and testing them, but before the month is over, my brother will abandon it, get degraded to Basic acoount .... and ...

    Shortly after THAT Lindens will release the third wave ... I guess I will premium another Alt in the process ;)

    So many of my USDollars this year for the Lindens - a LOT more then in the 11 years before!! - Great marketing idea!

    And Leora? If after the end of her three month SHE still isn't the family member with the best house she'll reduce to basic and live happily ever after in the house of her little sister! Going back to Basic- Account doesen't mean you have to leave SL alltogether!

    That's great!  Whatever that works. :) 
     I am not going cancel mine for an alt.  Still,     I can't wait to abandon my house once they will released more traditional houses due the fences are not removable.   Impossible to build a parking pad for a car or bike.  Shame that location is so beautiful and fancy name.  That's why it's pointless for me to live here.  Waiting for the 3rd wave!

    Well how about making an Alt and making her Premium for one month?

    Cost you 9,50 US$ and she could look for you. In Case she got something better, you abandon and look and so on. At the end of the month you would have to decide wether or not it is worth a permanent premium if sshe has the much better house.

    For everyone...  can do that.  If your alt likes a house/ best location... you can easily cancel your main pm and use your pm alt for that house.  But mine is a very different story.  I'm oldbie.  I joined 2004.  Can't cancel my pm for many reason. lol

    You definitely shouldn't do so! Not unless you have a premium-alt to assist you!

    Never abandon what you have got before you definetely POSESS something better! - or you might be left with nothing!

    That is very true.  I heard there will be lots of traditional houses coming out later.  Risky or not is a matter of choice.
