The Old HHN 30 Speculation Thread (2020)

[Parkscope Joe]

And what if COVID is still around next year?

The black plague is still around we just know more about it, how to treat it, and how to stop it. It's not about "getting rid of the virus".

And what if COVID is still around next year?

No one knows. Will we have a vaccine? Will we have a treatment? Will we have COVID for the rest of our lives? We wait and see.

to be completely honest...
I feel a huge relief. a huge weight has been lifted from my shoulders. I am Not being sarcastic or being a contrarian or making a joke
I legitimately am glad they cancelled. i am very happy. it really is a giant relief.

only because the sadness and stress of missing out HHN this year while it was operational was too much. and the risk to go was too high. the temptation of going and risking your health combined with the sadness of HHN happening and not being able to go was too much.

but if they fully cancel it outright, it means we can all go next year when it is safe and none of us will miss any of the houses due to the fear of going. and now we dont have to anticipate or be stressed out anymore. Yes it sucks that there wont be HHN this year. it sucks. but we can all be safe and wait for next year and not worry anymore.
because the way they were going to have to do it sounded really annoying. i think this is good. this is good

Personally, I was not looking forward to the neutered version of HHN...It just wouldn't work IMO

If COVID is still around at the same problem level this time next year, you will have much bigger problems than whether HHN can run

And what if COVID is still around next year?

If it's still at its current level next then you will have more than HHN being cancelled to worry about

Two words for today . Sad and unprecedented.

This is the least satisfying I told you so ever, but I told you so.

The question is, what do they do for Premier AP holders whose ticket is baked in? I’m sure they don’t know yet themselves, but it’s a question they’ll be forced to face.

Dude, no.

 

[RevFreako]

Dude, no.

Sorry Joe, and delete if you like, but some of us predicted this some time ago, and got shouted down by the "it's on it's on it's on" crowd.

1. The term was “it’s on until it isn’t”
2. The decision was literally made in the past couple days.
3. It still doesn’t give you the right to be a jerk about it.

No, you got shouted down by the “please stop milking this topic no one has any certainty on” crowd. Now let’s have our final moments of this thread without another argument.

Your prize is in the mail

I mean, you ended up being correct, but it actually was on until it (very recently) wasn't.

 

[hhn28andbeyond]

Id expect the 31 spec to begin in November as usual?

I mean, I’ve been kinda ready to rip that bandaid off, but...



@hhn28andbeyond: Once again, it’s still going to be 30.

 

[Parkscope Joe]

Nope. We all need a break and a drink. A statement will be made once this is locked.

 

[Petercamie]

Are we still using this discussion forum for HHN30 (2021)?

 

[GA-MBIT]

I hope any scareactors are able to find other work quickly. A lot of people are thrown into the void with this decision, and with no extension to unemployment benefits in sight that leaves a lot of people in a very bad place.

This is probably the worst outcome for HHN 2020, but there is no way this doesn't lead to an absolutely amazing HHN 2021. Getting to experience 30 the way it was designed to be experienced, without having to worry about a superbug, and with an extra year of polish? I think it's a blessing in disguise. This isn't just any year, this is the 30th anniversary. Let's make it count, right?

Whenever this topic pops back up again, just know that I'm gonna be going full Billie Stan mode on this thread. 100% my most wanted house until it's officially announced.

I for one didn't milk the topic, because I mostly bounced and left the Polyannas to it until it looked like there might be some forward motion.
