At last D&Co presents the Final Fifteen of the 19th Housing Week in Middle-Earth contest!
It’s time for everyone to sit down with a pen and paper (and maybe something to drink/eat) and tally up the points for their favorite Personal Classic House in this edition of the Housing Week in Middle-Earth contest.
First of all, I want to warmly thank every single one of the entrants who decided to participate in this contest! There were 41 entries this time around. And by the way, sorry for the delay… Life, IRL work, and stuff, you know…
Again, thank you to everyone who participated!
Unfortunately, as is always the case, decisions had to be made.
So here they are: 15 houses from which a single one will be chosen to rule them all! A photo report has been created for each house but I strongly encourage you to visit them all yourself if possible.
Take your time in exploring them, tally up the numbers, cast your votes, and enjoy!
Note: names of neighborhoods aren’t necessarily consistent across the game’s three languages, so the language of the client (launcher) corresponding to the listed neighborhood is specified under each address.

The voting system:
- Each house is given an average score between 1 and 10 based on the Jury’s and the public’s votes
- The weighting of the votes is as follows: 40% Jury, 60% public
- Jurors are: Eorl, Khelsi, Nago and me
Scenario’s Choice: Scenario (World Builder) will be with us again and will choose his favorite house.
The rules:
- You have until Sunday, December 14th, 11:59pm EST time, to vote.
- You can rate each house anything from 1 to 10
- You can vote for one or more houses; there are no restrictions
- One vote per person (I'm watching you :p!)
You can vote for yourself if you like.
Play fair !
- Votes like "I give myself a 10 and everyone else a 1" will be refused.
- You can give yourself a 10 but votes which intentionally lower the average scores of other houses will not be accepted.
