That sounds like a better idea.  But "contest button"?  I know my mind is a sieve lately, but I don't recall any contest button, nor where it would be.


When they announced contest for Garden, it was found, I think, towards the right side of our pop up box for 'i' room button.  It shows there only when they have a contest to enter.


I'm guessing they did not allow it to show in our rooms yet due to timing and clearing of rooms.

GUESSING it will work like this: DO NOT know FOR SURE THOUGH

1 - go to our room for water contest
2 - click " i " room button - locate the "enter contest" button on the room pop up box and click to enter
3 - at the time of "enter contest" button clicked - it will clear room and start the clock countdown.

But, this is only in my mind  :crazy: ...who knows what VFK will do.



By the way, Loved your room Ducky! Thanks for showing us last night!

Thanks funfly for that info.  I was wondering too how this would work.  I plan on having an empty room to begin with...that is if I even enter the contest.  My room is rather pathetic...not sure I'll enter it.  I'm afraid it won't be much of a water room since the water in the room is minimal.  I would however love to judge the other rooms so I might just enter for fun.

Quick question...I have an ancient computer so I'm worried about the lag and my computer freezing.  Would I be able to log out and back in if need be during the judging in case I freeze or during anytime through this whole contest?

Aurora, Please know that I DO NOT know for certain HOW the entry and build will work. The post I put was JUST A GUESS!  Do not depend on what I was guessing.

Oh I understand funfly.  I have a feeling though you could be on the right track.  Guess we'll all find out here shortly.

Good luck to all who enter! :)

I never would have made it without that extra 15 minutes. Once my inventory finally loaded, i didn't close it again. Made it in the way for moving furniture around, but worked.

Yep, I am too.  The loading room rating form seems to be stuck for me.  I've refreshed a few times but still won't work.

rofl, if I thought I saw a lot empty rooms the first time around for judging .... oh boy!   :rofl1:

I only judged about 14 rooms, maybe a few less.  

This event was a little messed up to say the least.


I guess we just wait now, no idea if announcements will come as an in-game blast or via Homepage.   :??:

I was surprised at all the rooms I saw with very little water...I thought this was a water theme event???

Not a smooth event but I really like the idea of this whole thing.  Maybe next time it will run much smoother.  I'd like to see them do it again.  I just hope I can judge more rooms...I had problems and probably saw no more than ten rooms.
