Organization and your rooms

[got2Bme]

I was wondering if you could tell me how you all organize your rooms, and how you keep track of everything as in what stuff is in what room, and how do you know what to name your rooms? I'm not a very organized person, and I seem to have stuff scattered here and there and I can never find what I want when I want it. It would be so much easier if we could put our rooms in the order that we want them in, at least it would be for me..

Hi,

Well it was not a easy process as i had stuff everywhere. I emptied storage rooms then picked items like lets say chairs. I would put room title as follows:

- Mixed Chairs -

I always use - in the titles of my storage rooms.

Then i would group like chairs all together in the room. Then I move on to next item like mixed trees, rugs, crates, red things, Halloween so on and so on. Took me 2 good days to do it but I am now organized and i try not to keep much on me.

I do something similar, here are some examples of my rooms ( I use skull rock rooms when the codes are working LOL)

christmas things
christmas things too
fantasyland quest
halloween things
game room pieces
rugs
etc


and I keep one room around with some high valued items and call it

hi value

My storage rooms are all "stuff" rooms. For example:

Stuff - Narnia
Stuff - Pirates of the Caribbean
Stuff - Tiki Tiki
Stuff - Holidays

I do agree that it wou;d much easier if we could arrange the order of our rooms in the list. Even if the list was alphabetized...it would be a big help!

This is at the top of my "wants" list right now. As those who have a quest kiosk know, vmk lets us move the order of our tasks around via up and down arrows placed next to each task. So handy! I'm hoping vmk adds the up and down arrows to "own rooms" list so we can move our rooms around.

As to how I organize my store rooms, I, too, use the free Skull Rock rooms I got from the Kelloggs Conquer the Sea game. I label my rooms with the word Store - first, then just a few words describing what is in that room. For example:

Store - Halloween
Store - Teleporters - Doors
Store - Crates
Store - Fountain
Store - Water slide ride
Store - Rugs
Store - Adventureland
Store - Small World
Store - Frontierland

I have multiples of some rooms, i.e., Halloween, Christmas, and all the Land shop rooms, and usually have no trouble remembering which Land room holds which items. My rule is, if I have a lot of any one type item, i.e, trees, I put them in a room by themselves. If I have only a few of an item, I put them into the "Land" room according to the shop where I bought them.

I also keep my store rooms restricted to myself and friends, otherwise, I get people coming in to buy stuff from my stores (lol!).

I stopped by the Nautilus Grotto and hired a cleaning company called Merry Mermiads to keep my rooms straight.

Actually i have store rooms based on what kind of stuff it is like

pirate stuff
halloween
xmas
I also keep 1 junk room that i throw all the monthly quest stuff in then i sort it at the end of each month

Bug I think it took us more than two days to clean up our inventories.

I keep meaning to set all my store rooms to tickets it will help my real rooms to pop out on the list!

And I would LOVE to be able to shift rooms around!!

 

[VMK_MagicalLadee]

I have around 85 store rooms.

One for each item. Keeps me incredibly organized.

Thanks everyone your tips have been very helpful. 85 rooms WOW I'm having a hard time just keeping up with the few I have I couldn't imagine having that many.

WAAAAAAAY OT.

You're going to give Ariel and her sisters a complex Grumpy. LOL

I have over 60 rooms, about 40 of which are storage rooms of some sort or another. I went with themes. So, I have rooms like these:

Explorer store room (tiki and adventureland quest stuff)
How many pirate wells do you need? (an expedition everest room full of pirate wells)
All's well that ends (a pirate skull room full of pirate wells)
It's all uphill from here (a room full of waterslide up pieces)
Tron furniture (yup, tron furniture)
Halloween stuff
My Happy Christmas Room

So, I have no rhyme or reason as to how I name my rooms. When in doubt, I also populate the description.

 

[PirateBell]

I also name my rooms.. And like most of you I use the Skull rooms as my storage rooms...with HSM room for my trade room.
basicly I title them like

Pirate Stuff
Christmas Stuff
Halloween Stuff
Trees stuff
Animators desk
Wells
Tron Stuff
Teleporters
One question...do you guys have all those rooms on one account or are these rooms all together of your accounts? I have alot of rooms on my main character but haven't counted all of them or all my others !

And oh I so wish they would let us put our rooms in any order we want! Boy that would be such a big help!

I am somewhat new and have around 90 rooms, I have my main rooms listed as to what they look like when I am done, and the rest are storage rooms with titles of whats in them.

Try and stay clear of using STORE ROOM in your room titles. I did that and everytime I went into one of those rooms it seemed like half of VMK did too, and all you hear is, "what can I get for free?"

That's why I finally made all of my store rooms, ME ONLY! It was like a circus sometimes!
