    I don't know what you mean, but I'm intrigued.

    Me too.  Is this something that is meant to pinch someone else or yourself?  Now I need to know.  Any visual will help! hee hee

    Same. I decided last night that this current situation with catching every night the same houses over and over while new releases are going on for everyone else is just too annoying. I have plenty of other things to do with my time that are a lot more fun. 

    Good idea, this has been happening to me too.  Think I will take a break over the next few days.

    Greetings to all you SSP knowledgeable people. I need some feedback.

    I scored what I thought was an amazing ocean front Log Cabin in Chuckle Pond. WOW! Then I realized there is no ocean in Log Cabin Land.  

    Who knows what the heck the Belli Masters may put next to me. What would you do if water front was your priority? Keep and see? (And maybe waste time.) Or release?

     

    Personally if i was after waterfront I would abandon this one and try to get one that actually had water, not wait to see if water will be put there.   Reason being is that there is still lots and lots of regions to be released that have water there already.  And there is still chances to get water locations that people do abandon.

    At the end of the day it really depends on how much you like that plot (without the water there) and how badly you want water.   You just have to weight the pros and cons for yourself :) .

    Why do people name their new home "Linden Home"?  When your looking on the map and checking on areas that have not been or resently released and you see "Linden Home" you think it is available and you hurry to try and get it .... finding out after you use up all your trys and go check it out you then find out it has been taken days ago ,, hangs my head what a waste of tries. Thank you for letting me vent!   

    Sometimes it is a glitch.  I had it happen to me,  had a name picked out and got the house and didn't think anything of it till someone pointed out it still said Linden Home.  It was very odd.  If someone hadn't have said something I could have gone for days without even noticing, maybe even weeks.

    Oh that's the one I gave up the other day! I'd had it since that region was released, but decided Vics are not for me. It's a great spot.  :) 

    Yeah I thought that had been yours.  Even though I like water in the front I am finding in the Victorians I like the water in the back best.  I think because there is more landscaping with hedges and fences in the front of the yards.  Which make sense with the Victorians.

    I think you should all know that you are really terrible influences. Just awful. 

    Yes, I am playing Game of Homes. Not only that, but I'm sitting here considering creating another premium account for a month so I can hold the cabin I have now that I kind of like, but don't love, and keep trying for the parcel I want. 

    The worst influences, I swear. 😝

    Welcome to the darkside, I knew you had it in you! You will never go back 🤣

    Logged in today and my log home was fixed, no notification. Did LL do a "fix" or just not nice enough to close tickets (which should have sent me an email)? lulz

    I had to let them know this AM that I have like 3 houses rezzed lol.  They are aware there is an issue and are working on it.

    I haven't really begun to furnish the home yet. These additions are so simple to make that I'm not sure whether or not to put them into a package for sale. Of course the fireplace isn't my creation so that for sure won't be for sale.

     

    Pretty please with sugar on top, please please put these on the MP.  I will buy them as I can't make stuff and if I do make stuff it looks crappy.  I already have the fireplace :D .

    We didn't get any just a parcel we sent back 2 hours ago in another region. They are toying with us.  Truly fed up we are obviously not with the in crowd. thinking of leaving linden home jumping forever seriously, had enough of endless mediocre plots. I really truly feel they play favourites and its not random.

    This happens to EVERYONE.    No one is sitting on the back end watching for the "favorites" to ensure they get the best parcels.  It is a  matter of luck.  and you also don't know how many alts everyone has.  This also makes a big difference as well.

    Try not to be disheartened.  You WILL find something that you love.  Take a break for a few days and come back when you feel refreshed :) .

    I hate going to Culprit 🙃.  Eku has such adorable and clever stuff, that place is a real wallet-buster! 

    Not only do I spend a lot when I go there, but then I have to spend time playing with all her dang toys!

     

    I know!  I did go to pick up this kitchen set.  I went in and got out! hee hee

    Holy smokes. I should have been paying attention! 

    I think at this point it is harder to get the ones that are announced here right at the moment as lots of houses and vics are being abandoned so you shouldn't feel bad that you missed the announcement.  There are about 3 vics in Quixote that face the sea and they are still showing as Linden Homes.  I did try today with an alt to get a more green parcel by the sea (at least one of those) and I did get one in Wuthering Downs on my last try.  All the other tries were inland.  It has a nice sea view, 2 bridges and you can see a little island in front, but at the end of the day my part sand/green vic has a better view and is less busy.  But the region is very nice.

    I will still announce any waterview parcels I might release, but I think they are staying in the queue longer it seems.

    For all this hubbub, I've only seen a handful of people actually wearing it. If you go by creator support, you'd think everyone has this body and the number of users are ridiculously high. In reality, I haven't really encountered many people with it. This is a good example of hype and perception. Eventually, more and more people will get it just because they believe everybody else has it.

    It's a nice looking body, but ugh...the business practices of these people. I don't know if this says something about the creators or the people caving in to peer pressure.

    I personally don't pay attention to what body someone is wearing.  

    Yes,  I did buy this body, however, I bought it because I liked it, I can change the size of the feet,  I was able to get skin appliers from the creator I got my skins from,  clothes were starting to come out for it and I was okay paying the price for it.  I certainly didn't buy it cause everyone else did.  Now I did demo it when I heard others talking about it does that count 🤣.

  13. I do have both the legacy and perky.  I do like them both, mostly because I can change the size of the feet (I run around SL with no shoes or boots)  and I just like the shape of it.  I do have Maitreya and also Belleza and I like both of these bodies as well.

    As for the neck seam, I think it might a bit more obvious on the Legacy, but I still get seams from any body, just depends too on what windlights I use.  I wear chokers already so for me it is not really an issue.

    I don't use the deformers because I like wearing clothes that are made for Legacy.  Using the deformer changes my shape and I don't want that.  However, this is just my preference and I am just speaking for me here and not expecting anyone else to think the same way.

    I think all the mesh bodies have their pros and cons.  It really boils down to what body has the most pros for you and how much you want to spend.  Best thing is to demo, demo, demo and research some of these threads about Legacy.

    Side note: I recently declined to renew my premium account last month (May 1) b/c I quite frankly was tired of the stress of waiting countless hours to try to catch new releases and/or the off chance of a random abandon. When I heard of the plethora of log homes released yesterday, I upgraded back to premium as I knew the headache would not be as bad. Idk how I got this home, as there were according to Patch 81 available victorian homes, but I take this as nothing short of a blessing.

    I say all this to say, don't give up! Keep trying (at your own pace) at the Game of Homes. If you get tired, or find yourself wasting too much time, give it a break and try again when you feel you are ready! (I do not have any premium alts, so I know if i can do this, anyone can :) ) A word of advice would be to not hold onto something that you are only content with in fear, bc then you will never get what you truly want. That is what held me up for awhile on my hunt for my dream home.

    (P.S found a cute little sitting area to the right of the home)

    I am so glad to read that you found something!
