Hair New Era

Click to see images larger. The organizers would like for you to join one of two groups if you're having trouble. There's a post about it @ http://huntlocations.blogspot.com/2010/01/hunt-for-forbidden-fruit-hunt.html. This hunt is for ADULTS only and many of the locations you will have to be verified to enter. The information & prizes below are representative of the items obtained when I did the hunt and prizes may change, items may have moved & be easier to find or items may have been set for sale that were not for sale when the hunt was done. I will not update hunt posts as they give a proper indication of difficulty in finding objects and what prizes were like at the time the hunt originally started.

Many items were not out or out and not set for sale hours after the hunt began. All items found are either pictured or given a description. If your item is not seen it is because it was not found or not set for sale at the time I did the hunt.

Store 30 indicated that the prizes would be updated several times during the hunt; so keep in mind this prize will change & you may want to check back at this particular store several times during the hunt. #47 - contained only a landmark to the next store. Some items are blurred to retain pg standards.


Skin used throughout is Naomi base Freckle from Heaven's Skin & Shape won by playing the memory game in store. http://slurl.com/secondlife/uemachi/5/12/29

The hair is Laqroki ~ Fox and the fat pack is free. http://slurl.com/secondlife/Laqroki/93/68/29

Ends 6 October
Official blog: http://macabrehunt.blogspot.com/
Starting slurl: http://slurl.com/secondlife/Epic%20Sanctuary/114/133/20

Stores: 73

What are you looking for? glowing apples

List of participants with slurls & numbered: Official hints gives number, hint, & slurl

Hints: Official Hints

How long to complete the hunt? 4 hours 15 minutes (It will probably go quicker because you can look at the Official Hints and see which stores aren't out and move on to the next item!) I did this hunt alone.

Were folders labeled consistently?
Yes, and only one was boxed #35. Very well organized!

Were all items found?
No - but the official hint list helps you know which are out and which aren't. At time of hunt the following numbers were to be skipped: 8, 17, 18, 37, 39, 47, 53, & 59. 12 is to be delivered later by the owner - the apple was empty at the time I did the hunt. Keep checking the official site for info.

The apples are relatively easy to find and this hunt would be good for new players. There was only one apple near the end of the hunt that was inside an item; a good exercise in camming. Remember, there's always the list of hints with slurls to the next store if you get stumped!

Were folders labeled consistently?
No - many items were boxed, so it's much easier to keep the official blog's vendor list open and to use that list to tp around. Don't forget to look around for the number 54 vendor while stopping at #30 Prim & Pixel. Number 54 is not on the official list, but is in the same shopping area as #30.

Were all items found?
No - a couple were not found at all. A couple were out and not for sale.

Hey, hey, hey ... I still have a lot of packing to do before I leave for vacation and then tons more packing to do when I return for my move inrl. I will be infrequently blogging, due to relocating until 1 August 2009. Thanks for understanding guys. ^^

If you haven't noticed; there's a cr&p ton of hunts going on. I've done a bit of all of them, but have not finished any one hunt in its entirety. So, my reviews are way incomplete. You can check the official site for each hunt: some official blogs include prizes, others only have partial prize teasers included in posting, and still some display no hunt prize teasers at all.

So what can you do if you want to browse items from one or all of the gridwide hunts? The most comprehensive collection that I've found is at Schnaeppchen's blog (once at her blog hit the hunt button on the top navigation to see just hunt freebies), but be aware that she does provide direct links to items & or spoilers which may have expired additionally you may have to use a translator as she speaks German. But, you will be able to see the bulk of most hunts displayed on her sight. Both men's freebie blogs: Free Finds for Men & Fashion Freebies for Men have done a really outstanding job of providing thorough coverage of the items from the Make Him Over Hunt. Free Finds for Men has even gone so far as to provide categorized hunt prize post. So if you want a t-shirt you could look and see which stores provided t-shirts, or outfits, or jackets, or jewelry, etc.... and visit that particular vendor from the Make Him Over Hunt. One other blog worth mentioning Hunt Location blog does not include photos, but instead provides hints & slurl location for hunts. This is truly a great idea for a blog & fills a needed void in freebie bloging due to the amount of current hunts.

Ok, so on with the freebies I've collected over the last week:

Lya Seerose of I (less than three symbol) Rein and formerly of Seerose Shapes and Tattoos has a couple of killer tats in her Lucky Boards which change about every 10 minutes. She has a lovely gift for the ladies in her subscription system - so sign up! Her tats are non-transferable and usually cost $200. She stocks both tats for men or women. Find the Power Doll & Stand Proud Tattoos in the lucky boards and the ribbon pasties in the subscribomatic. (Lucky Board - m/f - tattoos - http://slurl.com/secondlife/Admicile2/13/15/29)



Faerie Hax sent me a tip that you could find a free dragon leg tattoo at the Midnight Lotus location of Negko. The dragon leg tattoo is on the back wall of the store. I also noticed a box at the front of the store containg a few different Negko design tattoo for the back. ($0 - m/f - tattoos - http://slurl.com/secondlife/Midnight%20Lotus/133/60/27)

This will be the first grid-wide hunt to end this month. This is sponsored by another freebie blog The Look What the Cat Brought blog and they cover the prizes of the hunt organized by them more thoroughly on their blog. Even though this is a grid-wide hunt, it is rather small with under 30 vendors participating - so don't be intimidated. You'll want to pick up a note card from the hunt information board when you start. The note card will show examples of the items you'll want to find (prim ball of yarn, texture of cat paw, or texture of fish bones). Female skins, clothing, female shoes, unisex hair, furniture, wings, poses, & weapons are some of the prizes you'll find along the way. I highly recommend this hunt!



(all items shown above are prizes in the Look What the Cat Brought Hunt - LWTCB # 16- Geisha Dreams (1 of 2), LWTCB # 18 - Miamai (1 of 1), LWTCB # 22 - Wasabi Pills (1 of 1), LWTCB # 24 - Nushru (1 of 1), LWTCB # 25 - Cipria Couture (1 of 1), LWTCB #1 - Simply Fae (1 of 2), LWTCB #1 - Simply Fae (2 of 2))

All the participants I've asked about this hunt liked the variety of prizes and commented that this hunt was well organized.
