    OK, so I had to put my thoughts in here also. I am a premium member, and I am not able to get one of the new Bellessarian houseboats either. I do this every day at least once until I  cant refresh anymore. I have sent notices to LL, and there reply's are horrible. They have never really answered my question on when they will be available to all paying members. So yes it is very frustrating almost to put of cancelling the game. If any of you have ideas on were to look, and to keep better tabs on when they are going to release more houseboats, please let me know. 

     

     

     

    I would suggest keeping an eye on the page in the minutes and even hours following a release, especially if the region released was one with houseboats. One because of  possible abandons, and two because after a release there will always be people who stop watching (the release is done! nothing to watch out for!) and therefore if something comes up, there might be less competition for it. It's not a guarantee, though. That applies to both traditional homes and houseboats, except that it's even more true of houseboats: since there are less of them, they are harder to get. Unfortunately.

    I'm not so sure I'd bother applying if I were you.  You've already said, in a Public forum, that you think the current Moles aren't qualified enough.  Something tells me those statements show the wrong type of attitude to be a Mole.

     

    I love embedded quotes that really preserve the whole story line.

    There is that....😄

    How is it unfair to give the premium members homes in the order that they joined premium? 

    And that is EXACTLY what i meant @RaeLeeH thank you. 

    And watch some of the loudest complaining voices complain even louder, as they realise they are now waaaaayyyyyyyyyy back in the queue, somewhere over the far horizon.

    That's exactly what i'm suggesting.  I'd be happy to provide what you are asking to LL if they choose to ask me.  I actually don't feel the need to justify anything to a random forum member. :)

    Well, then, maybe your friends might consider applying to become Moles. (I think I saw  a permanent link for the application process somewhere...I can try and find it again if you're interested.) Maybe they'll find themselves hired (maybe there is already a budget for it in place), and that means a greater pool of builders, which is presumably a good thing, as far as the region building process goes.

    "Does this dress make me look fat?"

     

    That's not really a question, though. More like a trap. It only Iooks like a question.

    I must say that I never seen as many on 1 day, without a release as yesterday. Since I don't use autorefresh on 70 seconds or whatever, I can't really say any, but doesn't that mean if your refresh happends the page stands still after that for 70 seconds and refreshes again? Do you know how many houses can pass by in 70 seconds! 

    Tell me about it... 😄 But that's how it is....

    And it's either that or not using auto refresh and refreshing manually at random times and being lucky enough to refresh at exactly the right time. It does work for some. but I don't fancy my chances with that...

    It amazes me how many LHs you see, RaeLeeH!

    I have not seen one house in a couple months. 

    I am using Chrome with the Auto Refresh set to 75 secs. 

    It will occasionally alert me, but the page I see is for a Meadowbrook LH. 

    I have double and triple checked my spelling of Bellisseria.

    I am using a laptop with WiFi….perhaps that is an issue?

     

    It's very hit and miss.... And mostly miss, I think. I've seen zero houses/ boats today, though I did see several yesterday (the ones @RaeLeeH and @iBrat also saw) - so I've no idea what's happening. I'm on a 65 seconds refresh, though I doubt it makes that much of a difference. Oh well.

    I have been trying to watch for the past week and haven't seen one new home come up :(

    6:20 am to 3:00 pm SLT,  in the hours, during the weekdays, regions can be released.  3 regions were released last week.  Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday. 

    What @Shield Markus says.

    They go in seconds, though, and the time they are released is never known (and never the same). So it's perfectly possible to never see any, unless you're very lucky or use an auto-refresh extension in your browser. Or both...

  9. This one is not modular... but it's apparently designed for small spaces, so might work in a Linden home depending on the layout you go with. Low LI too.

    I had a look at it in-world a while ago, and I seem to remember it does look a bit nicer in the marketplace ad, but see what you think.

    I second Aria & The Loft for a modern look - some great options, and usually lots of texture change options.

    And just for a laugh, one step up from an ice box...

    Depends how much you're into cooking, I guess... 😄

    Good to hear .... though I feel sorry for you! ... that you haven't seen anything on the weekend, for I took the weekend OFF! ;)

    Not from the computer, from SL or the forum ... just from this refreshing madness! - and it was relaxing!

    Oh, thank you @Leora Jacobus, but it's not too bad - I spent the weekend at the computer for other reasons anyway, so it was no big deal. And I was very lucky (and deliriously happy) to get a home a couple of days before the refresh restrictions, but the spot is a bit laggy, so now I'm just looking for a less laggy location. 

    And yes! it can be very relaxing to step away from the refreshing for a bit, that's for sure.

    Hi all,

    I saw that a couple of my blog posts about the old Linden Homes were mentioned here. Maybe some people would be interested to see what my Meadowbrook Loftroom looks like these days. https://billybeaverhausen.com/2019/07/21/its-a-cover-up-2/

    Oooh, thank you! Your place looks amazing, and on less than 175 prims? That's just incredible. I'm in awe of how well everything works together and how sophisticated it all looks like. I especially love the kitchen. I think I'm going to do mine in a very similar way - well, if I do end up having a kitchen-, I hope you don't mind 😊. That concrete worktop is exactly what I've been looking for!

    You really can make anything negative!

    Let's test this out... 

    KITTENS!

    RAINBOWS!

    BUTTERFLIES!

    BABY GOATS!

    Aaaaaaad... go!

    Kittens: horrible screeching things that ***** everywhere *

    Rainbows: pfft, it's not like you can take one home; it's all rigged anyway

    Butterflies: what a misleading name, they are not in fact flies made of butter, I want my money BACK

    Baby goats: I don't know, what do they taste like?

     

    *By the way I ADORE cats (and kittens even more so) - just RPing here. I really really wanted to add this...
