Bedtime Treasures

When I'm at the book store, I always make a point to walk past the children's section, because just seeing those books brings on a nostalgia that reminds me of the days when we traveled through jungles with giant monsters or said goodnight to the moon. Those bedtime treasures are a warm reminder of the kid inside us all.

Coming in June we'll all get the chance to revisit some of those stories with a hunt called Bedtime Treasures. The theme of this hunt is bedtime stories (cannot tell you how loudly I squeed when I heard! With themes like Winkin' Blinkn', Princess and the Pea, and Goodnight Moon how could you not?)

And if the theme isn't enough to get your hunting caps on, then the shops will. There will be 250 stops along your way through this storybook hunt, with places that include (so far) Bellatryx, Secrets of Gaia, Sweet!, Troubled Rebel, Sugar, Dyn Fashion, Loser Skins, Shit Luck, CnS e-motion and more to come. Applications are still currently being accepted designers! So if you'd like one stop by any of the mentioned stores and click the set up sign for one, or contact never Franizzi inworld. (No, trying to BUY a place in line is not going to cut it here, designers are selected on a first come first serve basis!)

The hunt will begin June 1 and run through June 30, with the starting point being decked out in bedtime fashion, and a freebie starting pack. A sim party at the starting location will be taking place mid month to get you even more pumped!

For more information and sneak peaks, check out the Bedtime Treasures Hunt Blog.

There's something in this hunt for everyone, be it neko, skin, children, adult, everyone. So the the next time you pass the children's section, give it a glance, because you might recognize something in it in the hunt...

More details to come closer to the hunt date (so we don't forget ;) )

Fallen Gods Inc.

There's a bloody mess down at Fallen Gods Inc. and if you can sort through it you'll find a hunt taking place in honor of the new gods being born. The hunt begins April 22 and ends May 20, and a good thing too because you might just need all that time.

The Details:
Welcome to the Bloody Mess.
I am your host, and guide…. And the search starts right here, in front of your eyes. The new generation of Gods is born, from blood…
…they leave traces, and things…

I need to find all the mess they left to clean the Island
(hunts takes place on the Selidor sim, and only there)

… if we don’t manage to clean all, I will anyway call superior help on May 20 to end that mess…
(Hunt is active from April 22 to May 20)

A number of remains can be find, but I am sure there is one special hidden in a very particular place… must find that one… (bonus!)

Well, that’s it.
In exchange of your help, you can keep everything you find in all that Bloody mess, hope will be enough for the trouble.
Kind regards,

Alia Baroque

P.S.
Licking blood from the floor can be unhealthy.

Prizes:

The following image was brought to you courtesy of the Fallen Gods Inc. Blog as this hunt was a bit too hard on my pc.


And yes, skins are included :)

Difficulty: Hard
Time: A lot more than I spent on it (ie, more than an hour)

Happy hunting

VIP Grid Wide Hunt

You know those hunts that claim to have all "top designers within sl?" Nothing against them, but they got nothing on this hunt. Its not that those past hunts didn't have some great designers, simply that not all featured in the hunt (IMO) were quite up to scratch when you're calling it a "best designers" hunt. However, this next hunt has set out to prove that yes, you can have a hunt only featuring brilliant designers.



Like my mother at the grocery store, the VIP Grid Wide Hunt organizers have carefully selected top notch artists for their hunt. Though a few might not be big names on the grid, all of them have proven deserving of their spots through creative and high quality merchandise.

But like any red carpet event, you'll need special passes to access these stars. VIP passes go on sale at these locations up until the hunt begins (May 8.) Passes will set you back at 200L but without them, you'll be left out in the cold.

The Details:

* The Designers will be asked to create an exclusive male and female (if possible) gift, that will only be available for the duration of the hunt.

* The Hunters are required to pay a one-time entry fee for participation in the Hunt.

* Only those who have paid the entry fee will be able to receive the gifts. So cheaters will not prosper and real fashion enthusiasts will not be bored and annoyed by yet another junk freebie.

* At each location the Hunters will be searching for a key.

* Upon completing the entire Hunt they are awarded a special key that enables entry to the Luxury lounge.

* The Luxury lounge will hold an exclusive reward for those dedicated enough to complete the Hunt.

DATES:
April 11Th: Designer Application deadline. No designers will be accepted after this date.
April 12Th : VIP Passes will go on sale at locations to be announced as the date gets closer
May 8Th: The hunt begins !
CONTACT:
For more information please contact Kenzie Corleone in game or you can email us at keystotheviphunt@gmail.com

Happy Hunting

Harajukubox City

I was super excited when I got the notice for a hunt going on in a Japanese sim, they always have something creative and beautiful going for them, be it sim scenery or displayed designs. Lucky for us all, Harajukubox City has both. Right now there's a Happy Hunt going on with some truly amazing prizes.

You're looking for Yoshi eggs that come in sizes ranging from small enough to fit in your avatar's hand, to as big as your avatar's face (okay, so they're not big.) You'll find them inside/around/outside shops within the Harajukubox City sim only (not Harajukubox Town). Pan high, low, and around because the better the prize the harder the hunting you'll have to do.

The hunt ends on the 25 of April, but check back on the end date for new eggs because they're added daily.

Paticipating Stores:
-Acid & Mala Creations
-Animus
-A:S:S
-BOUNCE
-English Element
-Kyoot
-Miau Hous
-PA Designs
-Sassy Kitty Designs
-SINdecade

Prizes:
The skin from SINdecade pushes my happy button and makes me want to run around the grid nekked. Gorgeous patches stitched together make up this doll-like skin.


I don't normally wear Nekko skins, but I couldn't resist the detailing on the face and body of this one from BOUNCE. It comes in a male version as well.


And finally, some unisex and not so unisex clothes to be found. The top left pic is of a male skin (which looks awesome for androgenic women if you don't want to show off the bod ;) )


lol, can you tell I got lazy?

Some helpful tips:

-MARKETPLACE: http://slurl.com/secondlife/Harajukubox/125/73/22
(BOUNCE, A:S:S, PA Designs)
-TP Point: http://slurl.com/secondlife/Harajukubox/120/116/22
(Animus, SINdecade, Sassy Kitty Designs, Miau Hous, Acid & Mala Creations, Kyoot, English Element)

-Expect lag and possible rezzing issues as the sim is cluttered with prims.

Difficulty: Medium
Time Spent: LONG, but only for me because parts of the sim kept disappearing which meant that on top of having to look for the stores I had to log and relog again and again. Lucky for you all, I've made finding the store locations a little easier ;)

Happy hunting
