That's my guess too. Perhaps they'll reveal the following theme at the Expo on Friday and then release both themes next week.

Haha yes, a fellow vagabond here roaming the Stilt preview and log home countryside mostly (in between shopping lol).

I am!😁

Thanks Frigga for the heads up about the freebies:)

Just thought I'd add that What's Next have a Black Friday 50% off storewide sale on (it's not on the Seraphim list). I've already picked up a couple of pieces:)

Thank you for this!! I just got it and rezzed it and it comes with the table, stars and presents. (Except that the rez box stays in front of the tree:( )

Yeah, you have to actively go into the group chat to see it - it doesn't seem to automatically display anymore. I think on the day of release, they should put up a "IT'S TODAY!" message to replace "SOON" lol.

Too busy skateboarding huh? 😁

We haven't had Patch's traditional 'moving house' pic yet - I wonder if that's coming also:)

😄Patch is teasing us... The image links direct to his Flickr page.

Walking the dusty paths of Bellisseria.... If there is a Stilt home release today my bags are packed - I'm ready!!😁

They may well be European Moles, so it wouldn't be strange as it's working hours over here:)

Yes, very true. I think a lot of people are expecting a release on Monday just because the regions changed to red boarders. Whilst Patch indicated QA need to finish checks, and this seems to indicate they have, we don't know what additional steps might need to be still done in addition to ensuring the relevant people are available for the release to go ahead. I say don't get your hopes up for a definite release today, but do keep an eye out for it coming Soon™🙂

We don't really know. I think there have been few log regions released recently (see other threads). Perhaps the ones around the railway line markers won't be done until the railway is done. There's a bunch of regions along the east and south east log land coast which look like they were finished a few weeks ago, and based on what has been said recently by LL about the regions closet to the Stilts being made offline so we can see or get too near till they are done, perhaps these ones won't be released until the next land mass is put in and released next to that. But it's pure speculation:) Maybe one of the Moles will chime in and comment.

Thanks for this! I went there yesterday and couldn't find this so got fed up and left.

I generally agree. I don't know if too much stock should be placed on exactly what style the door is, because of what appears to be 'recycling'. From what Patch has said so far, and hints and things in these threads, it's not going to be similar to what's come before. I'd expect it to look a different as a whole for example the house shape or the roof, but maybe some of the details such as window frames, inside flooring etc. are similar to what's gone before. I'm still thinking rustic or fantasy.

Here is Patch's description; (So the ones connected to the docks are consider Over Water) from this thread:

Thanks Leora:) I guess it depends on how long it takes for them to do their final checks and stuff - we don't know all the details of what that involves (apart from what Patch has recently mentioned) , plus Patch has said in the past that for a release they need certain people to be available. I'm definitely hoping for a release next week, but I wouldn't be surprised if it is later than that. I just hope that the Stilts don't go too quickly. When the log homes were released I was really surprised when they didn't sell out in the first few days, but I'm not expecting it to be the same for the Stilts. I've estimated a release of over 3,600 Stilt homes(159 regions x an average of 23 homes per region) - I think they will go faster than the logs. The few extra hundred houseboats should make it a bit easier though for those who just want a home on Belli somewhere. Theoretically each big release over time should sell out less quickly as less Premium members (plus alts) will be 'homeless'. So by the 11th release it should be less of a scramble to get one. At least that's what I'm telling myself lol.

The names are fun, they make me laugh. it's interesting to know that some of them come from real life. I think it's a nice idea, there are still a few themes to go so maybe they'll do it. What would the prize be?:)

I'm sure Patch might consider a region naming contest, but he'll never consider a sim naming one😁

Yep. I agree that it's better to do a bigger release, it gives more of a chance for residents to grab a home and not be frustrated with not being able to get one straight away. I'm very happy they are going this way.

There have been a lot of abandons showing up on the Land page in the past few days from all themes:)

The red borders seem appear/disappear depending on zoom level onto the map. I like to use the Shergood Aviation ATC Radar map - on here if you zoom at a certain distance you can see all the current red borders (14 in total at time of writing - a group of 9 shown in the pic below, 3 and 2 on the other sections). Of course there may be more that just aren't showing up on the map. What's nice at the moment is when you zoom in, and the red border is still visible, on those regions you can see all the houses now (previously some looked just like outlines) and a bit more detail like little pools of water dotted around: I think (I'm not positive) on average there may be one or two more homes per regions than other themes. In the pic above you can see 25 on the left, 23 on the right ( I think other themes probably have an average of 20-23 maybe?) .

oooooh - exciting. Change of colour usually means a certain stage is completed. Patch talked about QA doing checks on regions so may be something to do with that. I'm sure somewhere in the gazzillion posts someone has noted down something about the order of colours (I don't know where, but I'm sure I've read something like that). I've never taken note of which colour is nearest to release though. All I know is that there is red, yellow, blue (probably more too).

I think we should also consider that it could be some kind of fantasy home , like the old Elderglen are, not just 'real world' builds:)
