Made for me! I only hope it doesn’t turn into a popularity contest but remains a dorm contest. Are the entries anonymous? That might help so that when others see it and vote for it, they don’t vote based on the player but the actual design.
According to Marcie, you’re limited to votes from friends so after that there is a point where voting is anonymous! This was my initial concern too though.

You ever just like, decorate your dorm room and think "Wow, I'm so good at this, I wish I was getting paid for it somehow and that people would just appreciate my incredible taste in fantasy furniture?" You ever like, impulse buy a bunch of event furniture, realize it doesn't match any of your other stuff, don't want to actually equip them but also don't actually want to sell them off??? Well hold on to your butts PIMD, becayse Rate My Room is our response to all those thoughts!!!
Check out this fantastic new way to show off your furniture and earn rewards while doing it!
What is Rate My Room?
Rate My Room is a brand new Extracurricular aka XC! Flex your interior design skills and put together the most aesthetic dorms based on different themes and have other players vote for you! Dorms with the most votes win!
Where is it?! How can I play?!
Go to your XC when you see the Rate My Room! icon show up on your home screen - where you’d normally see the XC counting down. Next tap Design Dorm to participate. Once you’ve come up with your ideal dorm (keeping in mind there is a theme to match), submit your entry! Now you can check out the Leaderboard to see how you’re doing vs other players! You can also start liking other people's entries to see what dorm item combos the competition came up with this round!
How do I win?
Be the ""best"", obviously. People will be voting for which dorm they think fits the given theme best so get ready to wow the community!
What rewards are available?!
They're a surprise! But here's a hint: probably more furniture-related goodies.
Can I edit my current submission?
Yes! However, you will lose out on the Likes you've earned if you decide to resubmit your dorm! Basically, you're gonna start over with a resubmission.
Why is it not using my current dorm/what happened to the room I just made?
Each instance of dorm design is unique to that XC! Any changes you make to your dorm room from your profile page won't affect your entry in Rate My Room! Your entry to the XC must be made from within the XC itself!
Why didn’t I get placed higher on the XC Leaderboard?! Don't forget to check if there is a specific theme you're trying to match for likes! This will appear in the XC description at the top. Also, liking will continue to occur throughout the XC countdown so keep checking to see what people think of your latest design!
I submitted a design but I can’t see myself in the Leaderboard?! First make sure the Rate my Room! XC has started (and isn’t in the upcoming phase). Then, you need to get at least one Assist or one Like to show up in the leaderboard!
Why can’t I “Like” other people's dorms? You can only “Like” other entries once you've submitted one! Get designing bb!
What’s the “Assist” button for compared to the “Like” button? An Assist is sent directly either on the Assist screen or from the Leaderboard . A Like is for random entries via a generated match! You can check out the Assist page where you can see your friends' entries or invite them to join in the current competition!
Other important please-read-me-because-I-don't-want-silly-questions-after-this: ☞ You must equip at least 5 items to submit an entry.
☞ Tickets to Likes regenerate 1 every 2 minutes.
☞ Assists regenerate once every 24 hours.
☞ Only 5 assists will count towards your total score.
Now, a visual explanation of Rate My Room.
Time to flex those design muscles, fam jam! Excited to see what you'll come up with!
I see a lot of good that can come from this since it is not a stat based extracurricular for once. However, I also see some other potential consequences resulting from this extracurricular such as the given rewards leading to spikes in upgraded dorms. That’s not a bad thing, though...however it’ll be interesting for those who have upgraded theirs without such rewards being given out so easily. I’d just hope that these rewards are somewhat limited to prevent any abuse that could take place. I look forward to seeing some unique themes that were otherwise not shown in the beta test

But anyway, this really looks fun! I've been hoarding furnis before but I've recycles waaay too many as well and kept some presets on different alts so I might need to do a lot of trading soon ><
Ok but 1 question that isnt ansered here. Do we have access to a list of every single furni for this xcs sinse it doesnt effect anything else or do we only get to use whatever furni we actul have ourself

Actually, Ata Wanda clarified on the first page of the thread that we can only use Furni we own for the design. I wondered about it too but it makes sense, because if we could use anything then that would be strange and probably lower the creative mixtures/hybrids we are bound to see
