The new homes in Alaskol are...

For Sale 30 - 50 thousand currants.  

They are really beautiful, and will be sold quick even if a little high priced.

  • I bought one, and went from 70k to 20k...but it isn't showing up on my profile page or on the sold realty page.

    I'm kinda freaking out over here...help!!

  • I might get one if they are near a subway station

  • Last check there were only seven properties available at 50K. Developers - any chance of increasing that number?

  • Stoot you have outdone yourself. New housing is awesome. Can not wait to get one.

  • that's what i get for only saving 20k, despite guessing this would happen.

  • I've been chomping at the bit for housing there.  I think Alakol is just beautiful!!!  And the houses look fantastic.  So, I'm going to be auctioning all my belongings.... please buy away and support my Glitch habit.  I really love my house in Marrakesh, and would have never thought about switching... until I saw those!  You've all outdone yourselves with those!!

  • I bought one, now my profile page is gone, just bad joo joo, I hope it gets fixed soon :(

  • When they first went up there were TWO of each address. I think they are working out some kinks. Anne, Cupcake had the same issue. She had "8."

  • WTG, Anne .Congratulations! @kat65 I will buy your DR-3 MB if you have one.

  • The addresses are on Quarter Street, but that street isn't in the Alakol list.  (You need to have the greasemonkey script running to see the extended list of locations).  Perhaps our houses are invalid (or test) locations?

    edit: Wait, Cupcake bought 8?  That's also the one I bought. Hmm... my profile page won't load now, either, but when I click on the "Sold" houses, it does say I own it. Weird!

    Hey Cupcake, we may temporarily end up as roommates!  I'll try not to leave dirty dishes in the sink.

  • @Merek: new houses can be found if you check out Navran Dissent in Anakol. The script hasn't been updated yet.
    Posted 19 months ago by GreyGoose Subscriber! | Permalink
  • @Merek: oh, you bought one. Color me red---LOL Congratulations!

  • If I reach back to the Mirch dev-stalking days.... and the course the apartments took in that one... for a brief while there there looked like 2 of every address. In reality, those became Froughtful Arms and Froughtful Villa Apts. I think the bad joo-joos people are seeing is just a by-product of the interface not knowing how to display information for the not-yet-released 'hidden' location the housing is on... so when you look at our profile it errors. Course it could be erroring because there's two buyers, what do I know?

  • I bought one, I really hope its all good...I dont wanna be homeless as well as losing a heap of stuff!
    Posted 19 months ago by Teena Subscriber! | Permalink
  • I just thought maybe they were all duplex-type houses with 2 of each number...
    Posted 19 months ago by PittyPat is sad Subscriber! | Permalink
  • damn! only one left and i'm 10,000 currants short!
    Posted 19 months ago by IxÆoN Subscriber! | Permalink
  • I can't see my friends' profile pages if they bought the new houses. Can only see those that didn't.
    Posted 19 months ago by Sunny Subscriber! | Permalink
  • No one can *really* buy them now: it was a bug that they showed up at all. People will get their currants refunded and all will be well :)
    Posted 19 months ago by stoot barfield Subscriber! | Permalink
  • Well Teena's location is http://beta.glitch.com/realty/LIF1NTU6HG3228V/
    PittyPat's location is http://beta.glitch.com/realty/LIF1QU0QHG32RRA/
    So I'm thinking they won't be sharing a space (a wall maybe?). They sure are big enough though :D

    Can we keep them as a 'waiting list' and the currents are a deposit?
    Posted 19 months ago by Travinara Subscriber! | Permalink
  • Um....stoot....I bought someone's house that sold it so they could buy the new one. Will they be homeless or will I?
    Posted 19 months ago by Sunny Subscriber! | Permalink
  • Does that mean we need to go and buy our houses back?
    Posted 19 months ago by Rilu Subscriber! | Permalink
  • I hope no one buys their old homes in the time in between...
    Posted 19 months ago by Lord Bacon-o Subscriber! | Permalink
  • Will we get our old houses back? My old one sold already :(
    Posted 19 months ago by PittyPat is sad Subscriber! | Permalink
  • We cant get into our profile (bad joojoos)  to even sell the new one that doesnt exist to be able to buy anything
    - so no it is not all well :(

  • How exciting! Land speculation!
    This afternoon I was watching a Bauhaus feature and thinking how suitable it would be as a style adapted to Alakol.
    So yes, I'm excited.

  • No listings for Alakol anymore...

  • Your profiles are fixed again, the houses have been sold and the money returned. Please repurchase your old homes assuming you want to and they are still available — if someone bought your old house in the meantime, please file a ticket in the help system and we'll deal with those on a case by case basis.

  • Thanks Stoot - I just repurchased my old house.. but I have to say I am really disappointed not to be living in Alakol
    Posted 19 months ago by Teena Subscriber! | Permalink
  • Thanks for the fix, stoot, et al. I'm sad that I can't buy one of those excellent houses yet, but happy that my account (and currants) are back to normal.

    Let's hope the new styles are ready for prime time soon!

  • I just repurchased my old house but I still don't have my currents back yet.

    I too am sad that we don't get to buy houses there yet. :(
    Posted 19 months ago by Rilu Subscriber! | Permalink
  • They will be ready very soon :)
    Posted 19 months ago by stoot barfield Subscriber! | Permalink
  • They look amazing!  I hope there will be plenty of them when they are ready. :)

  • So many folk want them it's going to be like an auction, sold to the highest bidder! 

    And they are gorgeous!
    Posted 19 months ago by 1padme Subscriber! | Permalink
  • I have a feeling they will be a lot like the houses in Shimla. The first batch went really quick, but then a whole lot more came on the market pretty fast.

    At least I hope it goes like that.
    Posted 19 months ago by Zaphod Subscriber! | Permalink
  • Oooh! 1padme, that's an idea.  Real estate auctions! It's too bad that when we sell our homes we cannot sell to a particular person.  On the other hand, I suppose it's good that we can always sell a home we don't want, even if there isn't a buyer for it.

  • Errr ummmm.... there's no stairs. Hah! Knew I learned Levitation for a reason :D
    Posted 19 months ago by Travinara Subscriber! | Permalink
  • So Stoot, is there anyway we can convince you to tell us when these gorgeous houses will really be up for sale? :)
    Posted 19 months ago by Rilu Subscriber! | Permalink
  • They now have doors which seem to lead to stairways. 
    Posted 19 months ago by Piece of Serenity Subscriber! | Permalink
  • Rilu, no trouble at all: soon!
    Posted 19 months ago by stoot barfield Subscriber! | Permalink
  • The game calendar should really have a holiday called "Soon."

  • Dang, didn't have a chance to see them. Looking forward to being able to buy one, though! Then again, I might not try too hard since we'll be resetting, lol.
    Posted 19 months ago by Cerulean Subscriber! | Permalink
  • Oh my word - they are AMAZING!!! Ty for the links Varaeth <3

  • Must. Have. Alakol. Home. Either size are gorgeous. Want!
    Posted 19 months ago by That Kid Tyler Subscriber! | Permalink
  • So seeing as the ones that became available earlier sold out so quickly, can we expect that the large demand will be met with a large supply?
    Posted 19 months ago by IxÆoN Subscriber! | Permalink
  • Great new designs - reminds me of Fireflex 3000 Lab... hoping to see trendy posters (like this one) on the wall ;)
    Posted 19 months ago by Hburger Subscriber! | Permalink
  • Oh crumbs, now I feel really bad - does that mean the groddle forest house I bought was only on sale because someone mistakenly bought an Alakol home?!

    :(
