HoHoHo...Where's Our Advent Calendar???

I totally forgot, but shouldn't the Advent Calendar be out by now. Tomorrow (11:30pm here) is Dec 1st. Anyone seen anything for this year?We need to get our Virtual Picket signs out. Stardoll is slackin'. I want my advent calendar..it's one of the great things about Christmas on Stardoll. :[

We got amazing items last year. If you don't know what it is, do a google search and you'll see last years items. Basically Stardoll gives us an item everyday for little or no cost. Last year they were almost all designer inspired. drool. ;)

Is Stardoll Cheating Us Again????

Have you noticed? Stardoll has done another sneaky thing.. Tylercon just pointed out to me that the LE tag no longer displays the ranking at the bottom. The number that told you what number you were out of how many were sold. See the before and after pictures below.

Before:
After:
How do you feel about this? Do the numbers matter to you. I think it could be argued that the earlier numbers are rarer. I don't really care as much about that, but it definitely mattered how many were sold because of course an item that only had 200 would be rarer than an item that had 500 sold. It affects the amount you may get for it when re-selling..

AND THEY ARE ALSO NOW AVAILABLE TO TRY ON IN THE STARPLAZA (NOT PURCHASE)???

With the release of "duplicates" and now this, it seems like stardoll is trying to make things not so competitive on Stardoll any longer. Maybe reduce scamming/hacking for rares. Is it too little too late? I mean they basically created this monster with their lottery dresses, comps and Limited Edition collections..now they want to take it back? Well I think it is not fair to those who spent A LOT of money on LE. If they want to make a change, they should change things going forward not the past..or they should give us back our money!

Tell us what you think!

Official Voting Starts

The voting for the Star Awards has now started. It's a bit different this time, so I thought I'd post it. To vote you must request Vanessa (Star_Awards) and send her your vote in a message.

Honestly I'm not sure about this. It's probably to ensure less cheating and more privacy, but the downside is that the "public" can not see the votes for themselves or know if counting was done accurately. I think there was a discrepancy in a previous Star Awards about the numbers. NS. Anyway both ways have their concerns, but I'm sure Vanessa and her team will do their best to make sure that it is done fairly and correctly.

Good luck to all the nominees. See the rules below.

HB Topshop Skirt is here...

The HB skirt inspired by Topshop is in the plaza. It's selling for $12sd and for SS only. Looks like Stardoll might have shortened it a tad, which I like because the longer skirts can look a bit grannyish. I personally like the black skirt in December hb's better. So how about you, Do you like this skirt and will you be buying it? What's better real or Stardoll?

Show us your best outfit for it! Tell me in GB if you are wearing it! Skirt by Topshop

Oh Well...

It was good while it lasted...

Looks like the Rodarte outfits I talked about in the last post are no longer non-superstar, so I hope you got them while you could. Figures..

WTH Stardoll???

Well great news for NS or those who were unable to get these items when Halloween Couture was out or LE......but what the hell for the rest of us!!! Once again Stardoll has basically duplicated items that were fairly expensive and part of exclusive collections.

See here the Rodarte inspired LE dress. Some of us paid $275 and it was only available to 400 and now a practically identical one for just $13!! It even looks more like the original dress!
And here are the Rodarte inspired boots from Halloween Couture. Not 200, but 30sd. Still fairly expensive and a limited time collection. Now selling for 6sd! Again it is more true to the original!

I know they are not exactly the same, but they might as well be. They were inspired by the same items no? Again I am happy for the Non-Superstars as they are able to get some nice designer inspired clothes for less, but mad as hell for me. haha.

What do you think? Are you happy or a wee bit pissed..
