Carnival Days Hunt began yesterday and is off to a great start.  We do have a few stores that aren’t quite ready but will inform everyone through the inworld group when they are prepared for hunters to bombard their store.

The current list of hints and prize pictures can be found here:    Carnival Days Hunt Hints & Carnival Days Prizes

Watch for more info to head your way on all the grand festivities coming your way for the month of October.  There’s a boatload!!!!

First Sneak Peek at Prizes

Hiya folks!  The carnies are showing off their talents for you all in our first preview of hunt photos.  This by far isn’t all of the merchants pics but it should give the excitement level a little boost.  You will find them under the Hunters and Shoppers Info at the top of the page.  Or … you could just click this link!  We do want to make it easy after all.

Carnival Days Hunt preview from the Carnies!!

While not all photos are labeled as to who is offering the item we can tell you they are all fantabulous and so much fun!   Reckon hitting all the merchants on the hunt will be the best way to get all the great loot :)

Introducing “Meet The Sponsors”

*Gasp* There’s a real live human behind those incredible designs!   Yeah, I know you know that.  What you may not know is what lurks in the minds of those creative items that fill their stores.  These are the folks who make the clothes we wear, the house we live in , the furniture that makes that house a home, the silly rideables that make us laugh and so much more.  In truth, it’s a good deal of hard work that goes into building in second life.  The rewards are far greater than the money. It’s the ability to create from the heart where the only limit is the imagination.

The talent spread around the grid is simply amazing, to say the least.  While there are a ton of designers out there, we want to help those who sponsor FAR Hunt Group hunts shine brighter than they already do.  This is why we are bringing you “Meet The Sponsor”, an interview with each sponsor and accompanying photo of their best design.  The questions are ours, the answers are theirs.

It’s our hope that you enjoy learning a bit more about the real life person who helps to design your virtual world.   Of course, we want you to go visit their shops and become fabulously loyal customers as well :)

Each sponsor’s spread can be viewed by selecting their name from the “Meet The Sponsors” heading at the top of the page.  Our first set of sponsors comes to you as the lead stores on the Carnival Days Hunt that begins on September 1st.   Isabella Trezuguet, owner Grim Death Co., Lucia Sorbel, owner Incendia Outdoors, and banking Aldrin, owner :::HOT STUFF::: are the first gracious souls to present themselves to you, our FHG readers.

Isabella Trezuguet – Grim Death Co

Lucie Scorbal – Incendia Outdoors

banking Aldrin – :::HOT STUFF:::

 

If there is a question you’d like answered by our sponsors, send it to me (Rowan Attis) inworld in a notecard or by email to far.hunt.group@gmail.com.  We will get it on the interview questions and bring you the information you are dying to know!
