Take an 8-Bit Trip in 3D!

Where is CrestHawk? Perhaps you should be asking...'when' is CrestHawk!?

There've been several rumors floating around the Hotel lately about our dear Habbo Hotel Staff member CrestHawk. We've got some good news...and some bad news regarding his situation. The bad news is that we've completely misplaced the poor guy and have had no idea where the heck he could have gone! But the good news is that we might have just been given a clue as to where he went. Don't be alarmed, but 'might' is bold because we don't know exactly if it's a where...or a when!

An 8-BIT TRIP in the THIRD DIMENSION!

That's right folks, we have some pretty substantial evidence that CrestHawk has somehow broken the space-time continuum and was sucked several thousand years into the past (somehow without a Flux Capacitor). We first heard the reports from fellow Habbo Staffer Puffin about a week ago, who saw CrestHawk entering an old storage room in the Hotel basement.

When no one had heard from CrestHawk in over a day, we investigated the room to find furni strewn all over the place...as if it had been involved in some kind of explosion. Digging through the furni, we found a giant boulder lodged deep into the ground below...with a note from CrestHawk engraved into it. In summary, he explains he's been transported to the Prehistoric Era by a specific combination of furni and a teleporter and needs our help immediately! Visit the 8-Bit Trip Group page to view the entire message written by CrestHawk from the Prehistoric Era.

Unfortunately, the rest of us have no idea how to arrange the furni to create the time machine that sent CrestHawk across the age...but YOU can help! We've added all the furni that was involved in the time-shattering explosion to the Catalog and are willing to reward those who can design a time machine to send us back to save CrestHawk! Click here to find out how...

Oh! And we've also added artist renditions in the form of a wallpaper and stickers to the Web Store of what could possibly be happening to Cresthawk in the Prehistoric Era...courtesy of our local on-staff designer notMiceElf. Enjoy them in both regular 2D...or mind blowingly awesome 3-D! Confused? Well, it's not 3D like modern video-games...but actual 3-D just like recent movies! Get the most out of this 8-Bit Trip by designing your own 3-D glasses like the ones below...

Time Traveling Furni

Create a time machine using special selected furni. Help us find CrestHawk and you could win an exclusive badge!

If you're caught up with prior events...it looks like our fellow Habbo Staff member, CrestHawk, is in quite a pickle - and I don't mean the delicious kind you put on a sandwich. More along the lines of being thrown back into the Prehistoric Era and caught between two ferocious dinosaurs. The good news is that YOU can help!

Get Time Traveling Furni Deal for just 17 CREDITS!

CrestHawk left us a note from the past regarding how he was mysteriously sent back through time. Visit the Catalog, under the 8-Bit Trip section, and you'll find a Prehistoric Deal that contains the furni we believe is pivotal for going back in time. The entire deal will only cost you around 17 Credits! That's actually a pretty amazing price, since a Mood Light is included as well, which normally costs about 12 Credits. If you were planning on getting a Mood Light for your room, this is a perfect chance to net some additional furni!

We placed the furni on sale individually as well, just in case you wanted to get just one or two items. But how does all this help us finding CrestHawk, you ask?

Prehistoric Time Travel Room Comp

We need YOU to recreate the time machine that sent CrestHawk back in time! Problem is, we've got no idea what it looks like. However, from CrestHawk's notes, we understand that you have to use the furni in the Prehistoric Deal and a teleporter of some kind in the center. We really dig the Telephone Booth tele, especially since it's associated with another, totally excellent time-traveling movie! Feel free to design your time machine with other furni as well but it MUST include the furni from the Prehistoric Deal with a teleporter in the middle!

Don't forget to set some dramatic lighting to the room with your new Mood Light! Take a screenshot of the room and send it to competitions.us@sulake.com. Make the subject line, Prehistoric Time Machine and don't forget to include your Habbo name. Deadline for this competition is Friday, May 14th @ 9am PT. Twenty Habbos who are able to successfully recreate a working time machine will be rewarded with the 8 Bit Trip Badge!

Habbo Staff will also select five rooms from the twenty winners to be placed on a special 8 Bit Trip floor! Make sure you don't remove any furni from your submitted room. You will be able to visit the rooms on Friday, May 14th under the Official Rooms tab in the Navigator.

Happy Mothers Day!!

I would like to take the time out and post something NON HABBO on here. I would like to say Happy Mother's Day to all the mom's out there in the world and I like to tell you to keep up the good work and that your kids always love you even when they get mad at you. At the bottom is a Mother's Day poem please take the time to read it and I hope you enjoy it. Once again Happy Mother's Day.

A mother casts her dreams into the sea;
We, the words sent bobbing towards the sun,
The eggs of stone, the shards of prophesy.

Because she must conclude her melody
And fall back to the sweet dark hush of One,
A mother casts her dreams into the sea,

Hoping to cross that wild infinity
And on some infant shore again to run,
The eggs of stone, the shards of prophesy

Outside the fiery circle of memory,
The howling surf, the incessant years undone ...
A mother casts her dreams into the sea

And then dissolves into a tapestry,
Her rolling, helpless drift again begun,
The eggs of stone, the shards of prophesy

Afloat once more upon eternity,
Once more the alien fury, never done ...
Again, again, her dreams into the sea,
The eggs of stone, the shards of prophesy!
