I am so excited that they extended the timeline to enter!  :wavet: Because of real life, I have not been able to enter a building type of contest since the garden competition. I have a few ideas for this event, so I think I'm going to try to enter! Thanks VFK! This will give me time to work on building a little bit each day. Good Luck to everyone!!!  :bighug:

I, too, am glad they extended this date! Perhaps I'll be able to do something "quick and easy" for this since real life has been taking over so much these past weeks.

Since I have been ill I never got to make a Jungle Ride Room, but the contest says it can be any ride room so I am going to enter my old holiday ride room since its the only ride room I have (Mom has no ride rooms).  I wish everyone luck and I just hope my back holds out for the judging.

Krazy,

If your Mom wants....just buy a beginner pack at Merlin of River Ride and toss it in any of her already built rooms.  Enter it with a short ride.  At least it would be a built room with a short ride :)


 I saw some others said last contest time:  "I'm poor so this is all I had.."  or "I entered just so I could judge"

That is a good idea Fun, but sorry we didn't do it this time.  I entered my old holiday room (3 rooms) one so its all good.  :)  I won't win, but it will be a blast getting to ride other people's rides like the nice ride that Tiger built.  Great work Tiger and gl all!  :2thunbs:

Saw some pretty amazing rooms as King and I were judging. I had an initial idea for a 3 room ride based on the Enchanted Tiki Room, but only had real life time to build one room. We missed a lot of "tiki" items this summer, so I think I'm going to start fresh after trading for some items and go forward with a Tiki Room without a competition. I want the time to make it look like the real thing.

I was so happy to just build again in game. I have been so busy with therapy and other real life, it felt good to relax a bit! On a side note, all of my time off this summer has paid off. I worked so hard all summer to be able to use the indoor pool at our local YMCA. (instead of driving 20-30 minutes to another Y) Our local YMCA is only about 3 minutes from our house, but the indoor pool is down 24 steps. I am happy to say that I made it down the steps for my water therapy and back up when finished - 48 steps total, plus the 8 steps into the building!!! Yay!!!  :dance2: :dance3:

Hope I saw some winning NoBS rooms while judging. I don't expect to place this time around, but I sure had fun building and judging! Hugs! :hug: :bighug:

Thanks Astro!

I like the prizes...but the jungle stump chair seemed a little strange in the collection to me. Perhaps would have been better had they given us 2 of the stump chairs.
