My favorite LH right now I would have to say is the traditional. And I give extra points when I get one in a region that was part of the first release. Those regions just seem to have a homey feel to them. Maybe because they were the first ones? I always seem to come back to traditionals. I love all the landscaping they did for the Victorians and that is my favorite in regards to landscaping. I do like all the themes though, some just work for me better than others.

I got one in this region too!

That place looks great. Nice location.

There is no reason this thread can't stay where it is as long as people stay on track.

I agree. Some of the best parcels I get are ones that I get months and months after the theme is released. I still find the best spots I get are ones that are abandoned.

Thanks to all of you for making the time to post when these sales are on. Have been able to get a lot of nice stuff this way for low cost.

I have to say that my favorite right now is the traditionals, especially if you get a good one in the regions that were first released. Now that I have a water parcel on mainland I don't need a houseboat. I like the stilt houses, but I have issues with the landscaping and the draw distance and I just can't get into them. I am awaiting on the chalets .

Personally I think people waste too much time worrying about it. It's sad to see people place their own value on a like button.

Actually, I have had this happen by accident. I claimed a house and even had a name already picked for it. When I got to the parcel it was still named Linden Home. And I have had it happen a few more times since then. Maybe that is what happened here?

Could be you are just not ready to let one of them go and if you like them that much, you should keep them. And yes, that is I guess me being a bad influence cause I still have 2 homes. A trad & vic and I have no intentions of getting rid of either of them. At least not yet. I don't think you are stupid at all.

The OL houses in Trading Post seem to be going.

That is a super awesome catch!

Yes, I do struggle with that. I don't like to have my draw distance up high anyways and I do find with the stilts it is harder to find a place where you can make the DD and the landscaping and houses make sense. But I do use FS so I can derender stuff as well if I have to. But yes, I feel your pain!

I find them to be a little too open and sandy for me. Doesn't mean they aren't nice, just not for me. I think it is great that there is now two options for water living, houseboats and now stilts. And on top of that there is even an option to have the stilts on land. Big plus in my opinion.

Wow these all look great!

I would be totally up for something like that.

I have never seen them release a new theme on the weekend. I can't see it happening, but I guess one never knows.

I went and checked out number 6. That is the houseboat I got when that region was first released. And it was by accident as I was trying for a house. But I loved that spot so much I kept it for a long time , that parcel made me appreciate how great houseboats could be. Also made me realize how much I loved the underwater gardens. And yes, it made me buy mainland with water so that I could even have a bigger water garden.

That is how I feel too. I have to feel the parcel. If that makes any sense. When it comes to houseboats I always tried to find one where I could have an underground garden (deeper water), open water view and the long parcels. I also go with whatever parcel works best on my computer too. Also sometimes it did help if I decorated both parcels the same way and went with the one that looked and felt the best. Also when the stilts are released, you will have even more houseboats to choose from! Welcome to the GOH Lloyd. You will never be the same again. 🤣

I also think once all the themes are released people will settle into only one, maybe even two themes that they like. At least this is how it will probably work for me.

I say come in saying you feel like sh*& about it and work your way up! 😀

Releasing this traditional at 10:00 pm SLT: http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Stone Harbor/214/49/39 This one is quite private.

Looks like it could be this one: https://marketplace.secondlife.com/p/The-Doyle-Exterior-Paint-Shell/19266841. This person makes exterior skins for a lot of the houses, reasonably priced, easy to use and well made. And you can also get fatpacks. Worth it if you use all the homes.

It was a nice spot. I had fun doing the garden there for the time I had it. I did get a plot on mainland that is water and it is quite deep in some parts so I can have a bigger garden there. I don't really need a houseboat anymore. I am mostly just trying for the trads now. I will try the stilts, but I am more excited for the chalets.

I am releasing this houseboat at 2:30 pm SLT: http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Morden/44/28/15 This is a great parcel if underwater gardens are your thing. It is pretty deep.
