Basketball Stars 2026 is unquestionably worth attempting if you like basketball or are searching for an action-packed, strategic, and thrilling game.

I wish :( I just checked and its still not updating.

Did this ever get solved? Mine is doing the same thing

Hi~ My deadly valentine contest is suppose to have entered the voting state but it just says "Ends 11 hours ago" for end date!

February 14, 2025, 12:11 am by

OK, I checked with the person running the contest that I entered by mistake and my entry isn't there. Either it didn't take or I managed to delete it. But that brings me to another problem. A lot of the contests just aren't showing up to enter. I have an entry for the Deadly Valentine contest but I can't enter it! And by the time the problem is fixed, the entry will probably be closed! I find this very frustrating.

Oh no! Is there an option to have it so folks don't have to own the item? Maybe I'll try running another one once this one is over (Because it is an expensive item T.T ) (and also because I only set it for like 4 days on accident T.T)

I've been pushing fixes, including for the outfits. There was a problem with it adding the items for new outfits, which has been resolved.

Remember - we don't set the rules for the contests. If someone sets it as a requirement that you own the item, you need to verify that you own all of the items on your avatar. If they set that it needs to have a specific item, you'll need to have that item.

I'm also going to change the error message. It's not saying that you are not logged in, just that there is an error and sometimes logging back in fixes it. I've clearly convinced everyone that the problem is that they aren't logged in. :)

February 12, 2025, 1:27 pm by

Gah! I made a HA for one contest but entered it into the wrong one. I'm doing my best to remove it but I keep getting the error message!

February 12, 2025, 1:15 am by

I just read this news post again with my eyes for the first time and it's literally mentioned in the last sentence. And I went to edit my comment here but I don't think you can. Well, anyway. Yes I am now aware of the options. lol

February 12, 2025, 1:04 am by

~ Hey there, unfortunately I (and I suspect many others)can't enter your contest because its required that we own the Sims plumbob, which is super expensive :/ ~ The contest you made also requires full ownership of all the items you use :)

February 12, 2025, 12:53 am by

YAY!!!

February 12, 2025, 12:16 am by

Oh no! I totally set the date for the one I made wrong T.T I'm so sorry, I can't edit it lol

February 11, 2025, 11:32 pm by

Wait a minute...Do you have to own the items in your outift?

February 11, 2025, 9:35 pm by

Talk about half baked lol! That’s why I’m gonna sit this out.

February 11, 2025, 7:56 pm by

This is so exciting!!! I love everything centered around HAs

February 11, 2025, 7:56 pm by

, I tried to enter with a different outfit without any CWs and still couldn't :(

February 11, 2025, 7:40 pm by

oh thank you. I couldn't find the forum to post on! haha I just posted a long comment about my challenges. :)

February 11, 2025, 7:18 pm by

This is fun, I like the anonymity with the entries. Wish there was a heart function for the designs I liked beyond the one I get to vote for. It's exciting to see new systems being added. Thanks for being here for us!

February 11, 2025, 6:31 pm by

You're not the only one having trouble with your contest! I've posted about it in the feedback forum, hopefully it gets fixed :crossed_fingers:

February 11, 2025, 6:03 pm by

Possibly! I saw one contest, clicked on it and it said I'm not logged in, when I am logged into Kumos. I don't think this was throughly tested for bugs before it rolled out, which is a but annoying.

February 11, 2025, 5:59 pm by

IIRC They have NOT released the results of the New Starter Outfits? I know I got a sticker but I don't think they released winners yet.

February 11, 2025, 5:57 pm by

very excited for this! thank you for working on this feature & i look forward to the bug squashing :)

February 11, 2025, 5:46 pm by

I'm getting an error page when I go to view the contest I set up (ie says I'm not logged in or there is a server error). However, there must be people who can view my contest because there are entries..but I am not sure how I'm going to be able to judge the entries if I can't view the contest. :(

Also, is there any where to edit/delete a contest once it's been created?

February 11, 2025, 4:39 pm by

So how is this supposed to work if half the users are getting error messages? Logged in but not logged in. Nice.

February 11, 2025, 4:31 pm by

I am logged in, but when I go to the kumos site it says I'm not.

February 11, 2025, 4:11 pm by

Yay!!

February 11, 2025, 3:18 pm by

Logged in but says I'm not, on the Kumos site.

February 11, 2025, 2:27 pm by

So I’m logged in but it says I’m not logged in. Don’t think I’ll bother with this.

February 11, 2025, 1:38 pm by

it doesn't let me enter either, and CWs shouldn't be a problem as long as you own it, one entry has CWs in it too. i tried a few things. moving the item to the top, no CWs, less items but regardless of what i do it won't show up for me to enter.

February 11, 2025, 11:56 am by

Interesting and should be fun for holidays. But it's on new subeta so don't think I'll be entering. Hope any bugs get figured out.

February 11, 2025, 11:51 am by

What are the shiny stars floating around the HAs face?

February 11, 2025, 11:33 am by

~ hmm I don't think the HA I wanted to enter uses any CWs. I tried to enter a couple of other ones too. I think it's just some kind of bug.

February 11, 2025, 11:27 am by

Sorry I misspelled your UN ^^; Please see my comment below

February 11, 2025, 11:26 am by

I wonder if it's because you can't use CWs. I didn't see anything in the rules about it, but if that's the case, it should be a rule that you can't use CWs.

February 11, 2025, 10:01 am by

Will it be an announcement when the voting starts? Can't do anything, just stare at a screen. Can't even type what my cosplay is about...so tiring...

February 11, 2025, 9:30 am by

I've been loving these! So glad they're implemented.

February 11, 2025, 8:51 am by

Wowowow! How wonderful!

February 11, 2025, 8:40 am by

Ooh this sounds like so much fun but I think I'll wait to try it until most of the bugs are worked out, I understand that not everything works perfectly at launch and no sweat subeta team, just take it at your own pace. Unlike the neopets team, the subeta team actually is transparent with their players and constantly working on the site I think this place is better than neo by a million times. Thank you to staff for this wonderful new feature I look forward to using it at a later date! ^^

February 11, 2025, 5:21 am by

Oops! Something went wrong all the time, sick of trying to enter anything on kumos. Yes, I AM logged in, it sends me to log in then says I am logged in, I'm done

February 11, 2025, 2:38 am by

thanks!

February 11, 2025, 1:46 am by

Also sticking around for the conclusion of the missing "Wear It Best" contest...

February 11, 2025, 12:54 am by

nice,,, Now what about the snowballs???Winter is like half over already...

February 11, 2025, 12:27 am by

[item2=Twin Planets Model]

I don't remember the results of that either. Sometimes things happen on Kumos only and it's a bit annoying to not be at least updated here because it can be broken quite often.

February 11, 2025, 12:23 am by

Anyone know what that ring bun hair is called?

February 10, 2025, 11:51 pm by

How exciting! (Tangentially related-- did y'all ever pick winners for that "HA Starter Clothes" contest you ran a while back? I don't feel like I ever saw the results and I was kinda curious what was picked.)

February 10, 2025, 11:50 pm by

Is it possible to include all variants of the Freckle Lotion rather than just the Pale? The pale version is lighter than my HA's skin so it makes the opposite of freckles.

February 10, 2025, 11:02 pm by

I also am not able to enter the "Wear It Best: Pale Freckle Lotion" contest :(

February 10, 2025, 10:05 pm by

you have some of the best style thats whyyy

February 10, 2025, 9:38 pm by

Literally screaming about my HA being there

February 10, 2025, 9:29 pm by

I'm having the same problem as Bliss and Ellyrium. I'm pretty certain I'm meeting all of the contest requirements but I don't seem able to enter the Wear It Best: Pale Freckle Lotion Contest.
