So hard to choose...both are two of my three favourite hotels of all time (AE's Hotael is the third on that list, by the way) and both represent the kind of calibre I wish all hotels reached for. Well, only one way to settle THIS.

Both have their faults. Fooville's design is too constricting, and Lifewater's design bores me. Lifewater has secret passages, but they're hard to find and generally serve little purpose. Fooville has the coin drop, which is pretty cool. I think I'll go with Fooville as fire is so much cheaper there, and the defense system in Lifewater is just confusing.

Fooville:

People in Fooville aren't too shy to kill other players, which makes things challenging and fun. Although I was never fond of how repetitive the eyecandy use was in fooville. There is no sense of discovery involved in the design as well. When BN hosted day 26 I just didn't feel as excited as I was in its prime.

Lifewater Lodge:

For some reason people whine just when shot, they're not EVEN KILLED and it's such a big issue to them; However bounty hunting was recently added to LL which actually makes carnage part of the experience. There are plenty of secrets, and I would expect more to be added in the future, they are great for discovery. By one having the right ammount of coins, one can build their own house. LL simply has more features, and new parts to the level are added almost every hosting. The service is good, Labratkid and Scizor CT are patient, they listen well to others players and will answer questions, even stupid ones...most of the time.

Fooville WAS great. I'd prefer LL though: The place changes way more often, it's hosted more often, and there's simply more to do.

@Marine: Lol, why not?

I've never been online for Fooville because Blackninja seems to think ppl like lvls more when they're not available for DL other than in servers (or from other players who have actually played it).

It's the same for Lifewater lodge.

I only have Lifewater lodge and I can play it any time I want, yayay. Still, I got slightly tired of hotels after the Hotel Heroes' hotel competition (which I lost catastrophically at). Now I try to keep away from hotels, as well as Blurred's CTF/not-hotel lvl.

I can see that LRK and BN each voted for their own hotels. :lol;

LL is hosted more often and simply overwhelms Fooville feature wise. What more needs to be said really?

Well, actually, obscurity is winning. But close enough.

...if someone were to make a hotel called "I haven't played either.", they could brag they are winning this poll.

War Tavern isn't a hotel, it's a forum for stories.

After seeing Fooville get owned in the poll, I decided to add a ton of new features. When the next version is hosted, some of you might wish you could change your vote ;p

Read the topic I made in cowboy lingo about Fooville day 27 to see a partial new features list. The rest will remain a surprise.

Okay, you're wrong here on SO many levels. Fooville DOES have fires, and S. Fires, and the deadly NUKES. So, Fooville is just as exciting as LL if fires are what depict excitement in hotels. If you keep running into the candy bar, then you just suck at playing.

Oh, and it's spelt "exciting".

That would be because Fooville generally has one person updating at a time (lol me 4 now) and it is mainly in that person's hands to update it or not. Fooville, when hosted, is extremely active, and people buy and use a lot of fires and nukes (I know these things, duh). The problem is that the people who host and update it are kind of lazy and it takes them a while, unless extremely dedicated, like LRK and Sciz are, so LL is hosted more.

Plus, the logs that the announcer makes are REALLY bugged up.
