Your Say!: Polls
From the end of the world to the beginnings of space Last week, we asked Habbos if they believed that the world was going to end according to the Mayan calendar, if they thought it was just a load of baloney. Surprisingly, over half of the Habbos who answered said that they really did think that the world was going to end in 2012, and tha while most of you were planning to spend your last day on Earth with your loved ones, almost 15% of Habbos will be logging on to Habbo while the world ends. :) Looking for the rest of the results? We've got them here! Do you believe in the end of the world? Yes! I'm so scared. - 51.66%

Win Kilford - The Music Painter's Amazing Prize!
The Black Eyed Peas, The Feeling, Franz Ferdinand, Feeder, and The Charlatans - just a few of the stellar names who have had their live music painted by Kilford over the last couple of years. Described as ‘The Art World’s very own Rock Star,’ Kilford is an internationally renowned painter, whose love of art and music has propelled him to the very forefront of the live art scene thanks to his unique ability to translate music into art, live on stage. His work is so good, he is preparing paintings for Rihanna, Jay-Z and Mr Hudson! Sounds like the perfect job to me... Competition: What song should Kilford paint next? We've teamed up with Kilford to offer you the chance to win an amazing money-can't-buy (or if you could, it would cost you an arm and a leg!) prize. Kil... By on 26th November 2009 05:00pm

Vote For November's Room Of The Month
Who created your favourite Featured Room in November? November's theme was the scandalous look of celebrity living, and we found four Featured Rooms that were ready for their close-up! First in the limelight was Lady Gaga's Mansion by HotelEmo. A little wacky and off-beat, like Ms.Gaga herself, but artfully representing her wild style. Next up was Comment & Read More... |

It's a Jungle Out There
Train you pets, run races, and boast your badges! When you purchase a pet in Habbo, it's obviously not aware of life in the Hotel. So it's your job as the pet owner to train your pet so that it learns who the master of the house is (unless it's a cat, in which case, they're the master, not you) and how to behave in the presence of other pets. And of course, pets also need some exercise, so you're now allowed to take your pets out of your rooms and bring them to your friends' flats. How do I get started? 1. You can find your pets in a separate tab in your inventory labeled 'Pets'. If they're not in your rooms, they'll be here, snoozing away. 2. You can select your pet using the :chooser command or by clicking on it. If you want to start trainin...

Fit For The Race?
May the best brother win! Both Herbert and Hansel are starting to train for the upcoming race, but they seem to have trouble looking for the perfect place to train. Herbert's decided to run laps around the kitchen, but unfortunately Hansel requires somewhere more… specialised to train. So we're calling on all fitness enthusiasts in Habbo to help out! Build a gym (large room, 50 Habbos max) for the brothers to train in, and send it over to competitions.sg [at] sulake.com with your Habbo name, the attached room screenshot, and a 100-word explanation of why Hansel should come and work at your gym. Not sure how to take a Habbo screenshot? Check out our

Agents of Change: Part 4
Engineering: the building blocks of creativity A century ago, people would've thought that iPods and mobile phones, personal computers and microchips, as some kind of magic. If you traveled back in time, even the idea of a car would've been thought of in the same way as putting the man on the moon. But look where we are in the present: not only are cars common in every part of the world, but we've even put a man on the moon! And you can thank engineers for turning dreams into reality — without their ideas, we would still be going from one town to another on horseback and writing letters by candlelight. And if you want to know what the future will bring, check out these nifty engineering ideas:

When There's a Will, There's a Way
Seems like Herbert's been keeping a secret from us… Our Kitchen Inspector, Herbert, seems to fit right in Habbo from the moment he's arrived. Aside from being a constant source of fish, he's every chef's right-hand man, constantly critiquing every ingredient that comes from the pantry. Of course, nothing peaceful lasts forever, and for Herbert's case, it seems that the peace has been shattered by the arrival of a thick white envelope coming from the legal offices of Dewey, Cheatem and Howe. He came to our offices to inform us that his uncle, a Mr. F. K. Dastard, has passed away, and that he's been named in his uncle's will. However, it turns out that a long-lost brother by the name of Hansel has also been named as trustee, and their uncle has decreed that whoever reaches the lawyers' office first will receive his ...

Win-some Wednesday
Loads of loot for this lot of winners! Wild Like The Wolves First up, we apologise if you had any problems with the Quileute wolf quest. Turns out wolf bots are particularly taciturn and have problems speaking in any languages known to Habbos. They were, however, working on Friday, from roughly 2015h until the hotel closed down, so if you managed to get the right answer and finish the quest within that time, then you've got a good shot of being one of the first 5 Habbos who will get a Level 2 Quileute Tattoo, a Dreamcatcher, 3 Habbo Points, and a spot in the finale. The first 5 Habbos who managed to complete the quest within tha... By on 25th November 2009 05:32am

Featured Movie Review: Zombieland
Proudly presenting our weekly Featured Movie Review by .!aLi!. Review of Zombieland
The opening credits of Zombieland made me want to walk out of the movie. I am not a fan of gore, and the first five minutes of the movie was nothing but zombies ripping flesh with their teeth, and blood splattering everywhere. I stayed though, and I was very glad I did. The world has been hit with a horrible disease that turns normal people into flesh eating zombies. The main character Columbus is a nerdy teenager who has established the rules of living through a zombie apocalypse. The main ones being carry weapons, be fast, and DON'T be a hero. Along his travels, he meets Tallahassee, a tough cowboy who thinks of... By on 24th November 2009 07:09pm
