  1. Last week right before Premium Plus came out, I abandoned a really nice Sakura that I rolled during the region release that ticked all the boxes: wide water on 2 sides, rez zone right there, no close neighbors, cute wall, stunning view of a lagoon with bamboo across the way, etc.  The only reason I left was I had other homes that just felt more "right" , not even sure why!  I didn't post it here,  so a random roller could get a nice surprise :)  Definitely agree with the view that there are often great abandons out there!

    Thanks! Do you know if we can put in for SSP region homes too? (The homes are built just say SSP)

    I don't think we can ask for homes that don't say "Linden Home" yet, regions that say SSP or SSPE as a name are still being worked on.  From listening to the Patch video the homes need to be "available".   This is just my guess...

    Do we put in a support ticket for claiming a linden home we find?

    Yes, be sure to state you are Premium Plus and put in the parcel coordinates (be sure the coords are well inside the parcel) and then check your ticket status or email frequently because the Support Desk communicates via ticket.   If it is available, you will get an email / ticket update saying your home is all set.  When you go there, it will probably still say Linden Home as the name, but your name will be on there as the parcel owner  :)

  4. I put in a request for a Sakura Home, and it was already requested/taken, so did some exploring, found some amazing coastal fantasy homes on the north coast of Sunshiny Day, then went looking at chalets and finally revised the ticket for a chalet on Salto Dellamante with a nice view of the railroad and a train station where you can rez trains,  the waterway, and a lot of really pretty landscaping...and got an email that said it was all set!  Very easy...

    Is the "bidding war" thing a real prospect for choosing Linden Home parcels, though? It seems this would require them to make Linden Homes able to be sold, or put up for auction—which would be kind of interesting, come to think of it.

    For new regions of Linden Homes,  many sit out there "ready" and waiting without actually going into the queue to be assigned, for example in the new Sakura regions many regions are sitting there waiting until the demand catches up and they are needed in the queue.  For a new theme, you could go look at regions that are waiting and put in a ticket for a specific house.

  6. I plan to upgrade my main to Premium Plus, because my SL blogging job uses tons of group slots for events and stores.   The upgrade is more expensive than I was anticipating, will need to rearrange the entertainment budget and make some cuts to be able to upgrade.  Am also a huge fan of the Linden Homes, and am excited about the (future) plans for 2048 / double prim houses.

  7. I am excited about the (future) plans for a 2048 Linden Home, and plan to upgrade to Premium Plus.. just think of the decorating  with double prims woot!  And maybe bigger yards!  The cost is more than I was anticipating, but the ability to have 140 groups is a huge bonus for my SL blogging job that chews up a ton of groups for events and stores.  And requesting a specific home for new themes when available is also intriguing, instead of spending a lot of time rolling and abandoning, it could turn out to be time spent exploring new regions and looking for great houses that aren't the obvious #1 choice that others will be requesting...GOH The Support Ticket Edition  :)

  8. I almost abandoned this parcel because there was no water and the view of the snowy mountain was more like a sideways peek....then I looked more closely at the back yard.  Stone steps leading directly from the yard to a secret hidden spring, complete with steam and bathing rocks!   I love this Sakura theme, it is full of surprises!

    The parcel boundary ends just past the Torii gate

  9. Found out that the Newbrooke pavement tiles are a pretty close match for the Sakura tiles...the texture in the pack for pavement is not tiled, and I don't have enough LI left to stick a bunch of squares together lol...but was able to color match fairly closely (materials on, Nans optimal skin and prim).   RBG 191, 186, 178   the first row of pavement tiles closest to the mailbox is the Linden one.  If someone has already done this with a closer RBG let me know :D

  10. This morning I rolled an inland stilt on Cleaner Wrasse, and wanted to mention that the newer stilt regions have some AMAZING landscaping, the moles are really busting out with some new flowers and really pretty arrangements.  The Wrasse house has a park with a picnic table in back and very lush flowers, rocks and trees on all four sides!  I wish the new hibiscus flowers were in the content pack  @Abnor Mole hint hint  :D   Anyway check out the beauty of the mole work! You can see how close the back deck edge is  to all the flowers, a perfect spot to relax...1186897116_MoleLandscapingNewStilts!.jpg.1045138c07629b42de81bb2c509a226c.jpg

  11. If we are doing future wish lists, (realistic or not lol), I would like new floor plans and wall paints for the trads...and the ability to have two 512 premium parcels on one account, like a modern and a camper  :D   I rolled a beautiful 512 Newbrooke overlooking the community center (with views of geese!) but since I am dropping my mainland I let the 512 parcel go..

    And am interested to see what Premium Plus will be!!

    funny thing.. I just got a new trad overlooking the houseboats and the corner of my new trad shows in the bottom left corner of this picture. (you can see my patio). Funny thing #2, I gave  up a trafalgar houseboat to get this trad... and ended up with a houseboat right behind my house.. which is also partially visible on the left edge of this picture

    That is awesome!  Great location for both the house and the boat !  Congrats  :)
