More Than A Thousand Words
How special is your mom to you? They say a picture holds a thousand words. But when we're talking about mothers, we're talking about more than a thousand words to describe them — maybe a hundred thousand? More than the stars in the sky? Whichever's the case, we're pretty sure that it's easier to show, rather than tell, your mom how much you love them. Design a Mother's Day alt for the upcoming Mother's Day celebrations on 9 May. It can be a static or animated alt, and don't forget to save it in a .PNG or .GIF format! Send over your submissions to competitions.sg [at] sulake.com with your Habbo name, the attached alt, and a short description of your submission. If this is your first time entering in a Habbo competition, don't forget to read up on the Comment & Read More... |

Get This Party Started
This big Habbo Hotel just got even bigger! After months of waiting and weeks of anticipation, the Habbo.com and Habbo.ca hotels have finally become one!

The Fashion Hub
We give you the go-to-people in the Habbo fashion industry! Fashion is not just strutting the stuff on the Runway. Fashion is also designing the right garments, making the perfect style choices, hiring the right models -- and you have certainly showed us that you know how to make those decisions! Originally, we were going to pick 3 rooms from each category... what can we say, we failed! Either way, here are the winners that we barely managed to narrow it down to: DESIGN STUDIOS

Sit Back, Relax!
We got some updates from the tech team, and to help us all breathe easier, we are introducing a long weekend of Relax Furni! Some of you have reported problems with your account after the merge, with some Furni items going missing. We have already identified the problem and which Habbo accounts that were affected, and we will be the fixing the issue as soon as possible. We are also getting to the bottom of the issue that had most CA badges showing up with incorrect names and descriptions. A solution should be in place tomorrow (fingers and toes crossed). In other news, we figured that since all this change might make even the calmest of us feel a wee bit on edge, what better way to battle the stress than by building a nice little spa with the Relax Furni? The sound of trickling water, the serene colours, ... By on 06th May 2010 07:45pm

'LIES: A Gone Novel' Comes to Habbo
You could win exclusive badges and get free stickers...find out how! “Exciting high-tension stories . . . I love these books.”
Find out why Stephen King, the “master of horror” and author with whom Michael Grant would most like to have lunch, loves the gripping GONE series. He says it’s because the “stories are told in a driving, torrential narrative that never lets up.” Um, maybe that’s it . . . or, maybe it’s because the books are about a bunch of scared, starving teens with deadly powers, who are battling each other and the evil Drake―in a world without adults, rules, freedom, or normalcy!

Vote for your Global Runway Favorite!
Who will end up at the judges' table? It is up to the Habbos of the world to decide. Yup, that includes you! During the Global Voting, each Habbo Hotel will be asked to vote for their favorite design, however, no Hotel will be able to vote for their own community's finalist. So, when you don't see the excellent CA or US winning entries in our poll, don't be alarmed, it's the same deal everywhere! We got another message from Miley Cyrus, so check out what she has to say below, then... And again, a big shout out to our finalists, Funie from the US and Comment & Read More... |
Two Became One!
Our Hotels are one and we are excited to have everyone under one roof at last! We are one step further on the path to a bigger, better future of more friends and more fun! You will notice that upon arrival, you received a gift from us - a Travel Trunk to bring with you your fun memories of the past into the future! .. and two badges! One to represent your point of origin, and one to represent the new friendships you will forge :) If your badges don't appear at first, open the gift box then reload the Hotel! This is a Habbo first, so we feel it is only appropriate that we celebrate the successful union of our two Hotels! Later today we will announce the Party Floor (with surprise Staff visits, so have your party rooms ready) and a fun get-to-know-each-other competition. So fo... By on 05th May 2010 08:30pm

Growing, Growing, Grown Winners
We finally got a garden to grow Yes, we know, it's been ages, and we apologise if you've been waiting on tenterhooks all this while for the results of the garden photography competition. However, it's actually rather difficult to count comments and likes and make sure that, in the spirit of fairness, Habbos who spam their own photos will not make it on top. Add to the fact that almost half of the 124 photos were either lifted from the Internet, double (and sometimes triple) submissions, or were simply Habbos who had a hard time following directions. So before you start complaining (and we all know that this is something of a hobby to a lot of you), here's how we came up with the legitimacy of your photos and... By on 05th May 2010 10:45am

Global Runway Voting
Who will be the overall winners of the Runway competition and get their designs viewed by our celebrity judge Miley Cyrus? Global Voting for the Habbo Runway Design competition has opened! Pop on over to the Runway Group page to see the finalists from all the Habbo Countries. You can cast just one vote, so take a good look and pick your favourite. During the Global Voting, each Habbo Hotel will be asked to vote for their favourite design, but each Hotel will be unable to vote for their own Hotel's design. So, don't be alarmed when you don't see the fantastic UK & Ireland winning entry in our poll, it's in the polls in every other Country. Check out what Miley Cyrus has to say and then get voting. |
Country Badge Countdown
Finally putting down roots It might be comfortable to stay in the same community, especially if you come from this side of the world. But pretty soon, we're going to have to say goodbye and fly to a bigger, better, and larger Habbo Hotel with loads of new friends, furni, and competitions. Unfortunately, one of the things we're going to have to say goodbye to are our special SG, MY, and PH badges. The latest badges for May have already been given out, and with the merge approaching, we don't think we'll be able to make it for the June round anymore. So thanks to everyone who signed up for their country group pages and were supportive of this little community project. Xie xie, terima kasih, maraming salamat. :) By on 05th May 2010 09:45am

According To You
Who do you think deserves to be in Miley's eye? The global voting has now begun! The local community votes have been closed, the numbers have been tallied, and we have all the finalists ready for the next round of voting. This time around, each of the 16 Habbo Hotels around the world have chosen their representative and letting the world see who's standing in for their countries. The top 3 designs with the most votes at the end of the voting period will then be sent off to Miley Cyrus, our guest judge, who will decide which design reigns supreme. The winner will receive fame, fortune, and the chance for his/her design to be made into Habbo clothing! Of course, in the interest of design anonymity, we're not putting up from which country these 1... By on 05th May 2010 08:00am

The Tuesday Ten
Welcome to the school of hard knocks Thought that the only thing to stop Justin Bieber from having an awesome time down under was the hordes of screaming fans (just a touch of irony there) that actually turned out to be a safety hazard? Of course not. Turns out that while in Australia, guitar legend Slash actually suggested that he and Justin (and Slash's wife, natch) should probably go out to dinner and then head on down to a girly bar to let Justin… appreciate the finer things in life. Of course, as every good 16-year-old pop star knows, when you're traveling with your mom, there are some things she wouldn't let you do: and that includes heading down to the seedier side of town with one of rock's greatest musicians and wearer of top hats. Good to know that even though he's famous, Justin Bieber still has a c... By on 04th May 2010 08:30am

CA + COM Poll Results
Find out more about the Furni compensation program, which items will be compensated, and what the weekend poll showed. First of all, thank you for responding to our latest poll about the merge! We are really happy to see that the general attitude towards the merge has improved quite a lot since the first poll we did in March.

As promised, we randomly picked 100 Habbos that all received a duck as a thank you for responding, so check your inventory to see if you got one! Since so many of us are eagerly waiting for the merge to happen, the techies are obviously working extra hard dotting all the Is and crossing all the Ts (you don't want to know wha...
