Not being able to add challange rooms to our houses. For frick sake i bought the cash house and then got 5.8 on the challange well I cant add it to my house now can I. Which leaves me with either buying more of the items I have or disassembling my challange room thus suxs major no wonder i stopped buying yocash

YUP

Congrats on the win!

I could swear someone wiser then myself said it had to do with the formatting that allows us to vote on the rooms

well I find it makes my intrest in the challanges less, if I knew I could add my room to my house then I would go all out in decorating it. Now it find it difficult do i buy the items and decorate when the house is released or do i just hold on to them until after the challange I find there too much moving around of these items

And additionally I lock my houses - only unlocking a few at a time .....you cant lock the challenge rooms So its rare that I ever keep one I have done (it's been so long since I have seen a 5.8 LOL oh well, what I dont get is my pool to vote is in almost always dump rooms but my room ? must be in a different group completely)

Are you not able to use the arrows that we get with the free gems room or the YC ones avail in YoDepot to connect them?

I delete mine so never tried

There is currently no way to attach gem rooms to actual homes & as much as I hate to admit this, it makes no financial sense for them to do so. If they did, very few would buy the yodollar homes, they would just take the free one & attach the gem rooms. We ask a lot from BVG, but this is one I do not fault them for doing.

She's talking about the actual ENTRY rooms, not the free modular rooms. We can't attach the entry rooms with arrows. We've never been able to because the rooms are coded like public areas for the purpose of being able to vote on the rooms. I don't understand why they had to code it that way or why they still, after years of us pleading, can't change the code to make them attachable.

It's a royal pain to redo your entry rooms in a modular room or avenue so that you can attach it somewhere. I've done it once or twice and it was simple enough, but there was one years ago I got a 5.7 (Wtf?! Just round it up LOL) and it was REALLY detailed and had a lot of stuff in it. I took a screenshot of it so I could rebuild it on an avenue and never got around to rebuilding it. It would have been great to be able to just attach it somewhere.

I have to disagree. I can't speak for everyone, but for me it wouldn't have any impact on whether or not I bought the cash houses. I buy houses based on whether or not I can do anything with them, and being able to attach gem rooms would be great. I would attach some of them to the cash houses to expand them, and I'm sure plenty of others would as well. I would maybe even buy more cash houses if this were possible.

when you're right, you're right. i would only get the free house and attach the gem room and, then if i needed to,
buy any coin rooms to add.

Also exactly what I would do. It would almost be silly not to.

Lisa, I know there are players that have the ability to spend big in the game, but I also know there are a lot of players on fixed incomes that would do exactly what I said.

That is a fair point. I don't doubt that plenty of people would do that. But they already give us a free modular room every GE. We could do the same thing with those even though they are not related to the store themes. I don't want to see that feature removed if this is a financial thing.

This is exactly why I stopped participating in the Gem challenge rooms.. because they can't be attached to the my other theme houses..
I do participate in the outfit challenges though.. I like getting the free outfit slots..

If you read my simple question again
Are you not able to use the arrows that we get with the free gems room ...
As I said I've never tried because I delete mine
It is possible to adjust and after voting I've removed all the extra tiles and fixed layering that pops back messed up anyway which is why I delete them
Just never tried adding arrows afterwards

Now I have tried and a pop up appears saying "use of teleport arrows not allowed" ok
so sorry my first simple question was not understood

The answer again is NO it is NOT possible to use arrows with the Gem Event contest rooms. Why would anyone delete free rooms / arrows though? You could use them still.

Sorry for misunderstanding. I thought because you mentioned the arrows with the free room you were talking about attaching the free room and not the entry room.

But no, you can't attach the entry room. It's never been an option.

Exactly the first answer should have been NO you can't , there is a pop up that tells you you can't
simple! I did not know this as again I had not tried

And I delete mine because they ARE gems entry rooms
* they're not able to be hidden
* the layering %99.9 of the time messes up
* I use the items again
* Items are from older or already decorated rooms eg: The Space/Mafia room used items from my Space Tour that needed to go back
* visitors cannot be seen neither can home owner / player be seen when room is default

and as I found out today
* they cannot be connected by arrows

and possibly some more reasons but hey what do I know ....

Yep
I discovered this when I came back from a 8 year break from Yo recently. Started doing the Gem events and found out you can't do anything with them once the event is over. So, now I just go in a empty them out and delete them. Why stack them in my inventory taking up space when they are useless?!
