Vampire Illusionati

Twisted Hunt will be wrapping up fairly soon, it ends on the 19th of October. The great thing about this hunt is there are many male items in the hunt. Once upon a time, it was mandatory for all stores to have a female and male item or a unisex item. It isn't like that anymore, but it seems that there is still many of the original designers still doing the hunt, so old habits die hard eh?

The Dandelion Daydreams Factory Sim is cooking up a spooky storyline hunt, which I snuck into part of the build to take these snaps. Keep a watch out on the Medieval & Fantasy Grid Crier Site for more information. If you want to just take snaps somewhere spooky like me, when you tp onto the sim, behind Lilith's Den is two houses that can work great for scenic shots.

While you are rocking out your free finds, hop on over to the Allhallows Showcase Festival, they have a little hunt going on until the end of the month, and participating designers have seasonal items with reduced prices. This top hat is from Chimeric Fashions, who is at the event, and has a wonderful mask in the hunt.

Soul released just last month some new Kisser(mesh mouth) options for us males, this one being the Vampire option. I figured I'd let you all know about it, since this is the season for those sorts of things, haha.

Twisted Hunt - Fall 2015

I had a late start to the blogging this year, as I had many of my own events to deal with for this holiday season. From now until Oct. 19th, you will be seeing as many of the Twisted hunt prizes, mini hunt prizes, gachas and whatever else designers have up for grabs in their store, here on Free*Style.

I'll never be able to get it all up, so if you want to see some more in depth coverage of the hunt, feel free to check out the SL Freebie Hunters blog. It use to be the place to go for hunts, but do to RL time constraints, the team does not cover as much as they use to. They do however do Twisted Hunt 2 times a year, so thanks goes to the team for that.

You can also check out the Official Twisted Hunt Flickr, for some of the vendor ads and other blogger pics.

Twisted Hunt is the hardest hunt on the grid, and my most favorite. I have been with it since the first, and have always enjoyed myself. There is a large and wonderful community, that tends to be as twisted as the cubes and the designers, which makes it all feel that much more worth the time spent. I think I talk to more people during Twisted, than I do all year, haha.

It is worth it to take a peak at the Official Twisted Hunt Site, if you have never participated in the hunt before. There is some really good information, so you don't get frustrated with the hunt.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

My most important tip to you all is this:

The Cube has to be within 30 meters of the landing point. 

Not the store door, not the front step, not the front desk. Where you land, that is the start of the area where designers can hide the cube. Due to regional forced landing points, or even the way some stores and their scenery are laid out, sometimes cubes aren't even in the actual stores. They could be in the courtyard, they could be ten meters right above your head.

This is the one hard rule, and designers are made to move their cubes to comply with these terms, so you can always be guaranteed that cube is within that space.

However . . . 

Mini Hunts do not comply with this rule, so if you see a cube outside this zone, it is most likely a decoy, or a mini hunt item.
.

If you try to keep this tip in mind, it will help you so much, honest. Some hunters get blinded by the sizes of the stores. Don't, you really don't have to search that sim sized store, you don't need that frustration.
