Darkness Inside Hunt: 1-58

Kastle Rock Gridwide Hunts has a reputation for well-put together events and The Darkness Inside Hunt doesn't fail to deliver. The hunt is filled with quality stores offering wonderful gifts, as well as a few new places to explore along the way. There is an in-world group to join, as well as an official blog with SLurls and hints to help the hunters as they work through the hunt path. I enjoyed this hunt a great deal and picked up some nice little bargains along the way, so while you are looking for the hunt gift, be sure to check out the sales and specials some stores are offering.

I hit a couple of minor snags along the hunt path - a couple places where either the gift wasn't out or was so well hidden I completely missed it. In each case, however, there was a sample of the hunt item by the hunt signs with an LM to the next location, so there was never a spot where the hunt continuity got broken. Grab your hunt pals and give this one a shot - at 117 stores, it's more than you can do in one evening, but its definitely worth spending a little time checking out.

Cheers, and Happy Hunting!

Perfect Couples Hunt: 51-108

Part 2 of the Perfect Couple Hunt went just as smoothly as the first part. The official blog and the in-world group notices have all the information you need for which stores are skipped, moved or dropped from the hunt so you don't get stuck anywhere, as well as hints in case you need them in some of the stores. The gifts were gorgeous - there are some really excellent poses and builds in this hunt which you are sure to find a use for, especially if you enjoy taking pictures in SL. Another bonus was that this half of the hunt was chock full of new-to-me stores, which just combined to make this a great hunt. I enjoyed it quite a bit, and you will too. So grab your favorite hunting partner, significant other, that cute guy you like to dance with now and then, and go have some fun - there is no telling where this hunt might lead you!

Cheers, and Happy Hunting!

His Style Hunt

And we're back...sorta. We're still ironing out the kinks, getting programs installed, and settings all back to normal, but we're online and chugging along!

Right now, if you haven't heard about it, there is a great little hunt for the guys going on. The "His Style Hunt" is JUST for the men, not a single female gift in the bunch, and has a nice range of clothes, accessories and poses. The hunt runs for the whole month, so you have plenty of time to head on out and pick up some goodies. Ladies, next month will be your turn, when the same coordinators bring you the "Her Style Hunt", so be sure to help your guys run through this one.

There were no problems when I went through, each store had a hidden gift and LMs. I didn't use any of the hints, but there are hints available on the official blog if you get stuck, as well as an in-world group you can join to stay up to date on any hunt changes.

Cheers, and Happy Hunting!

The Depraved Spring Madness Hunt

Real life stuff has been kicking my butt the last 5 days or so, and I am way behind on finishing and posting hunts for April. The Depraved Spring Madness Hunt is going on right now and was a fun little hunt that didn't take much time to finish. There are 38 stores and you are looking for a bright yellow and pink flower. The hunt starts at Razorblade Jacket, and I only had 2 instances where I had to refer to the blog to stay on the hunt path. It's well laid out, and the stores were a lot of fun to wander through.

Just as an FYI, this is probably the last/second to last post I will be putting up for the month of April - my computer has picked up a nasty little virus that I can't quite seem to eradicate entirely, so it's headed to the shop for a professional cleaning. I do, however, have a handful of items from other hunts this month that I picked up along the way, and I am going to try to get them posted before I take this machine offline for a few days. If I don't manage to get the odds and ends posted, the blog will be back posting soon as I get my machine back from the shop, in time for the May hunts.

Cheers, and Happy Hunting!
