A couple of weeks ago, we invited EQII players to participate in a Haunted Home Decorating Forum Challenge. All participants were given 300 tokens, six backpacks and five platinum. The platinum was to be used to purchase a three-room home at 1 Walk of the Dead in Neriak and pay for upkeep, and the tokens to buy items from a special event merchant that carried all the home furnishings allowed for this event. All participants used the same home, and all had access to the exact same items, with the 300 to tokens to spend on those items alone, but in any combination they wished.
We received over 140 requests to participate, and 99 final submissions!
The Entries: To view the challenge submission homes, log on to Test Copy server, make your way to Neriak, and visit the home at 1 Walk of the Dead. The following home owners are competing in the challenge:

Judging: We are currently in the process of judging the challenge submissions. We originally hoped to announce a winner on Friday, October 29th, but due to the overwhelming number of entries, we want to be sure we take the time to give each home a fair look over. Therefore, we're going to take a little longer to judge, and hope to have winners announced on Friday, November 5th.
All participants will be receiving an orange and black robe for their main character, a scare crow, and a black and white Community Team gift box! 10 winners will receive the Community Challenge Reward (a gold bowl on a stand with raining coins).
View screenshots of a few of the entries in both the Haunted Home Decorating Forum Challenge - Finished Submissions thread and in the Norrathian Homeshow forum.
Good luck to everyone who entered!
