Ok, maybe you didn’t hear me….

IT’S HERE, IT’S HERE!  *bounces around in circles eyes shining before collecting herself, clears her throat fluffs her hair a few times then settling upon one of the perches around the landing before jumping back up with a bell in her hand clanging it madly.*   IT’S HERE!  IT’S HERE!

·!¦[·      TWISTED HUNT FALL 2011 - UNSEELIE        ·]¦!·

I have had SOOOOOOOOO much fun with this theme you can’t even imagine.  I might have gone a little overboard but I had planned on doing this stuff for the most part anyhow.

The main prize is twisting and turning not too far from the landing point for you to find… I had to be a teeny bit devious, there’s a couple decoys.  *coughs* but I was nicer than some folks, least mine don’t tp you to different spots around the store!

The starting point of the hunt is if you want to go from the beginning:  http://slurl.com/secondlife/Lasombra/121/170/25

|I{•——» COURT OF THE UNSEELIE MINI HUNT «——•}I|

Over tucked along the flagstones there’s a small space where you will find a set of dark ruins where the Unseelie hold their court.  There are NINE gifts hidden amongst the rubble and grasses…. Seriously, I wasn’t planning on quite that much but then I couldn’t decide which ones to not use so you got them all.

|I{•——» TWISTED GACHA «——•}I|

The CUTEST little sit spot for foresty types or whoever, perfect for your garden and they’re in the gacha so each one is ONLY 15L, the BEST part?!  I made them transfer so you can collect, or trade them up as you get them if someone else is nearby who wants the color you have.  Each one has a different sit or fun pose to play with.  There’s 7 different colors

╚»╚»   They’re in the Twisted Skully Gacha Machine near the Twisted Easel at the landing point  «╝«╝

|I{•——» TWISTED SOUVENIR «——•}I|

I’ve been contemplating rotating out the souvenirs each week so there is a new one each week for the hunt, which would make 4…. so in that spirit here’s the first one.  Twisted Hunt folks will appreciate the fun in it.   It’s out for sale at the base of the easel at the landing point.

·!¦[·      LUCKY CHAIR UPDATES        ·]¦!·                                               

It’s the first, which means I like to update this anyhow but also because of the start of the hunt it’s -perfect- timing.  I left the Faylinn outfit in there for now but added two other little accessories in honor of the color scheme and hunt theme.   There’s a pair of wings, and a new set of leggings.

·!¦[·    MONTHLY PICKS CONTEST WINNER    ·]¦!·

Each month the Roawenwood  rewards its tried and true or otherwise so inclined for having us in their Picks.  At random at the end of the month someone is chosen from the list kept for a chance to win 2000L and a store credit to be used at any of the sims in the main store group for another 2000L!

This months winner of 2000L and 2000L Roawenwood store credit is:

✔  Carolin Silverfall

Yay!! Congrats and Thank You for being a part of my SL!!

Remember it is easy to get in on the chance to win, all you have to do is come down… click the sign at the landing point while keeping Roawenwood in your picks.  The list has once again been wiped clean and everyone has a fresh month to try again.

I’m going to get my backside around and do the 60L weekend sale again too so you have that to look forward to if all this isn’t enough.  Other than that… I am not sure what else to say.  I stayed up wayyyyyyy too late trying to get things done for the hunt, and things will be shifting and changing throughout the month!!  Take care and have a great rest of your week!

Did you know that today June 30th is my rezz day?  Five whole years, a half of a decade *winces* of memories, experiences and weirdness here in Second Life.  I just couldn’t not find some way to commemorate this small but significant moment within my SL.  I’m going to share in the celebration and we’re going to have a romp around the sim.

Five (5) Rezz Day Cakes have been perched and placed around the Five Blades sim.  None are on the sims next door, I wasn’t that mean this time.  Five things for you to hunt for and have some fun with.  I’m hoping that everyone enjoys.  Example cake and info sign at the landing.  The Rezz Day Romp will run June 30th through sometime July 3rd when I decide to clean up the crumbs.

·!¦[·      WEEKEND SALES, LUCKY CHAIR UPDATES & HUNTS       ·]¦!·

WOW, geez this is getting long.  Ya’ll are going to end up missing bits and pieces so I’m probably going to end up leaving a little note over the weekend.  Ok, first off.

╚»╚» L.O.W. SALE:  «╝«╝

The rules have changed and the L.O.W. Sales are going to only be three days BUT this weekend because of the fourth it is going to be 4 days.  I’m attaching the list for ya’ll to peruse of the participating merchants but remember the bulk of these are NOT FOR SALE UNTIL MIDNIGHT TONIGHT.

Mine are out for sale already at the landing near the L.O.W. Kiosk because I won’t be here at midnight.  I’ve put three things out for sale including:  The furred lap serve pillows, all four colors of the Andromeda outfit, and then the new Gardeners Pull Cart

╚»╚»  LUCKY CHAIR NEWNESS!!!  «╝«╝

Since I put out a new outfit I threw together a color for the lucky chair too… a very pretty soft sage type color of the Simplicity Silks, kind of fitting since I did up the physicians outpost this week… which is a lot of green! lol  Enjoy.  Don’t forget that the fairy set is in there AND I added a special color of  Tatyana that won’t be for sale in the store.

I’m in the Midsummer Nights Dream 2 hunt, and the Naughty Toys Hunt at the moment… along with the CAW hunt for life, some really nice things in there too…. like wow, I got a lot of stuff out there huh.  lol

When I began putting it together I started seeing other outfits using some of this as a base so I might very well be creating ohhhh one or two more things.  I can see some silks… maybe some harem pants?  I think I might also flirt around with an idea that I have seen tossed out there.  There’s a person or two who’s said that creators constantly create full outfits and they’d like to see some separates offered so they can choose colors or different ways to wear it, spending their lindens in that way.  With this outfit it has me thinking a little… about maybe offering some of it like that.  I’m not sure but I might try it.  We’ll see.

There’s 8 colors for sale; Black & Silver, Black & Gold, Blue, Green, Pink, Purple, Red, White & Gold….  the lucky chair at the moment has a version of the white with silver trim… but only the cropped top, not the full one or the extra shoulder sash. If you’re a groupie a very special limited edition color that won’t be for sale ever was sent out today.  Only groupies can get that one… I’m trying to make the group something ya’ll find useful

I hope everyone is having a great weekend…. and I’ll talk to you soon!

I got the store open and rolling on the first.  OMG, I thought I was going to lose my mind!  Well, as I have been told before that would imply that I had something of a mind to begin with. *snickers*  Ok, so now that the pressure is off I can breathe a little.

I have 4 (FOUR!) hunts going on, the What’s your Sign hunt started today.. the Twisted Hunt… the Falling in Love Hunt… and the Hunting for Role-play hunt.

Wow.

And if that wasn’t enough I threw something new into the lucky chairs for ya’ll to try to win… it’s a cute little number that I’m going to work on and get around for release. 

Then I also started a special Roawenwood only hunt.  I have scattered around the sim 10 little clusters of glowing mushrooms for everyone to find with prizes in them.  They are nice items, most not in the store even at this point.  Check out the sign at the store and see an example of what you’re looking for.

I’m seriously on the cusp of exhaustion so I’m taking it easy… and hope ya’ll are enjoying yourselves with what I’ve been having going on around the store.  I’m planning on hopefully putting some newness in the lucky chairs and getting the midnight mania boards back up this week. I might write up a blog post of some of the new items that were released this week… or I’ll edit this one later *grins*  But I gotta get right now… food is almost done!

Take care!

The outfit has 4 different tops, though it is technically 6 if you count all that is included.  Two camisk like tops with fabric sweeping along the breast and down low on the hips but not too low.  Then one version has belts across both breasts making it sorta of modest… and then one where one of the breasts is exposed.  Then there are two with just the belts, and I also included the belts on shirt layers so you can mix it up with other clothes too.  I’ve been wearing it with jeans and all sorts of things.  It’s quite fun.

Through Saturday (7/31) the outfits are going to be at a 50% discount.  I often do this with new releases so the early birds out there can get a great deal.  It comes in 6 different colors; black, blue, cream, green, purple and red…. there is as an extra bit of fun, and a bonus a special pretty pink version in the Lucky Chairs that WILL NOT be offered for sale in the store.  Mhmmm, an exclusive color just for the lucky chairs and won’t be released otherwise.  I’m still trying to decide if while it is in the chair if I should offer it for sale so ya’ll can get a sort of one of a kind thing w/out having to camp for it if you don’t want to.  Hmmmm… decisions decisions.  That’s almost worth a poll type question to my groupies lol

Anyhow, now that I am rambling on… This is a good one, I like it… hope you guys do too.

I know you’re all just dying to know who it was right?

>>>> FEBRUARY PICKS CONTEST WINNER  <<<<

The winner receives 2000L and a 2000L store credit to be used on whatever strikes their fancy at Roawenwood.  If you’d like a chance to win all you have to do is come by the store, click on the board for the contest, place Roawenwood in your picks and you’re all set!  Each month the list is wiped clean and we start all over.  On the last day of the month I will draw at random a winner and send out another notice.   A new winner will be drawn around March 31st.

This past months winner was Ashalyn Dreamscape!!   Congrats!!

>>>> NEW LUCKY CHAIR ITEMS AND GRID HUNT NEWS <<<<

This month we’re goin a bit green with a special edition coloring of the Andromeda outfit.  It WILL NOT be placed out for sale so if you’re interested in having it then you’re going to have to come down and see if you get lucky.

I also threw a fun little item in there just to break up the monotony but you’ll have to come find out what that one is.

If you’re thrifty or just like grid hunts I  am involved in two at the moment.  Well technically one of them doesn’t start until the 3rd I think but I have my prim out, placed, and the gift inside already for walkthroughs and all… so you get a special heads up if you want to find it beforehand.  I know it’s cheating and all but well…… *shuffles her foot across the floor*  I won’t tell if you don’t.

The first hunt is the Wheel of the Year Hunt, it’s geared towards the Pagans in SL.  The second hunt is the Nature’s Hunt… this gift is a little less specific and I like both prizes quite a bit.  Signs/hints/what to look for are in the nets at my landing zone.

Have fun… Wednesday I’ll have some new releases and something for your Hump Day.

You know I’m shooting myself in the foot over this one probably.  I LOVE the color that I picked for the Lucky Chair, limiting it is a tough one but I’m gonna do it.  I’m gonna stick to it.  So if you want a color that you won’t be able to get after ohhh…. the end of January/beginning of February then you will have to come down and try your luck.

Yesterday I tossed up my usual Hump Day idea.  This week I put the babydoll camisks at a 50% discount, and then put the three different versions of my massage table at a 50% discount.

My Wednesday was proving to be rather stressful… so what better way to combat it hmmm?  I thought it was a good idea.  It has been so great seeing so many people coming through and checking out my place.  The last few days have been so busy.  It’s crazy really.  I love it.

I hope that ya’ll are having a GREAT week.  I’m off to get back to work, and I’ll write again soon.

Much love,

– Sear
