[Ashiee]

Can we use any room size (like a mansion or a small house) or does it need to be a FC room/Apartment?

I'd like to second this question and ask if we could get confirmation on this! Taking a look at the entries already submitted here by players- a good portion of them are "rooms" in a Free Company house or Private house that have been sectioned off. Based on Official Contest rules:

• Perform a ‘makeover’ of the inside of your apartment or private chambers in Final Fantasy XIV by changing the design or appearance of the room.

Based on above rules my thoughts were strictly apartment or private chambers via a Free Company... But again a handful of submissions already are not.

Also noticing alot of editing of pictures that is also against the rules. I assumed it was apartment/private chambers as in FC rooms. Not sure if personal housing was allowed since some are posting pictures of different parts of their house, which is also against the rules listed on the main page.

They've already stated this if private room/apartments only and personal housing entries would be disqualified.

If we could get an official response it would be great as it will dictate my final decision on what room I will be redecorating for submission! (Along with others can have clarification incise they wonder why they may be disqualified if it truly is just Apartment Room or Free Company Private Chambers!

Edit: Repost apparently cannot edit in this thread~ Sorry!

Will be interesting to see. I managed to skim past that multiple times and was starting to wonder how they'd keep it face considering someone in a mansions could simply wall off a section of the basement and use their entire item count for that area. Keeping it to fc rooms and apartments makes sure everyone's on the same item limit.
