    Just curious with the log homes...if you abandon one, does it *maybe* go to the front of the queue?  I am emptying out a front facing large river home in Cyclone (one of those rivers that form a circle lol) and am wondering if it helps anyone if I post here when I abandon it?

    **Will release at 5:20 pm

    I think a lot of people here appreciate hearing when nice homes are being released.  It depends on how long the home sits in maintenance but it does give people a shot at getting your abandon.

    Sakaura, have you visited T-Spot by Teresa Matfield or Azalea BlueBell stores?

     

    No.  I think I looked at some T-Spot products on the MP though..

      Is that a mermaid?

    Time for a stretch!

     

    It really looks like a mermaid, doesn't it...unusual detail to add if it isn't relevant...

    Off-topic: Some serious weirdness going on. Just logged on with my alt to go to a newly-acquired house and there was an on-screen message: "Choose a male or female avatar. You can change your mind later." Is this a throwback to the early days? (I shut it down immediately, so didn't see what changes my avatar may have undergone.)

     

    This happened to me too! I picked female and then when I logged in I was some strange default av mixed with mesh av hybrid! Had two sets of hands and all lol. Oh and I was ruthed 🤣🤣🤣

    Just be sure to do 2 things:

    1. Avoid any Scupties. They're always bad.
    2. Look at the intended mesh tree in wireframe mode and make sure it isn't some 1-million polygon nightmare using a hack to keep the land-impact low. Such hacks are even worse than sculpties in terms of GPU-slow down lag.

    This may be a silly question but how do I know if something is a sculptie?

    Loving watching the daily development between the Victorian and Log Cabin areas.  Will be interesting to see what happens to the development of the SSPE areas surrounding the larger interior water bodies.

    I spent a lot of time without buying anything landscaping since I sold my entire island in 2012, so it's been great to read these tips, thanks to everyone, and especially to @Sakura Sands for opening this topic.

    Ya it's been so nice getting tips from all these clever people.  Thanks, everyone ❤️

    Working on my log cabin but products for other themes welcome too

    When it comes to homes I usually spend more time outside than inside, so I’d rather spend more of my Li on outdoor features.  That said, I’m pretty hopeless at landscaping 🤣.  Usually I’ll put down some furniture and make use of the existing environment.

    Anyone care to share their fave brands and products for landscaping? Paths, garden beds, plants etc   Any suggestions most appreciated 🧡

    I think the Rustic Kitchen set from DRD works great with this theme. My log home is a WIP, but here's what I'm playing with in the kitchen:

    Ya, that looks super cute ❤️

    I've not heard of anyone at LL giving any hints as to how long the release will take, or even how it is managed.  One could go out on a limb and make two suppositions:

    1.  Abandoned homes somehow go to the head of the line (evidence being the ease of catching the same house multiple times in a row)

    2.  The rate of new releases is dependent on the queue depth of homes waiting to be claimed.  There is no evidence for this whatsoever, except that it does seem, empirically, to fit what's actually happening.

    Were these two suppositions to actually be true, it is possible that abandoned properties could "clog" the land page.  Which, incidentally, is an argument against these suppositions being true.  That outcome is easy to imagine, and I doubt LL would set up such an obvious bottleneck.

    Yeah it really does feel to me like abandoned homes are sitting right on top of the pool making it hard to obtain a home from a newly releasing region...that has been my experience anyway...

    After having some really bad luck attempting to get some of the homes from the newly releasing areas, I finally had some success getting this parcel of land in Cyclone.  My luck didn't come from grabbing a newly released area but from lovely and helpful Loretta who abandoned this lot and set me up to grab it.  Thank you so much, @Loretta String!!!  I love it ❤️❤️❤️
