How goes it?

Well the Diversity hunt may be small, but it has had a steady stream of hunters going through, and most seem VERY happy. It has taken a few a moment or two to understand the concept of the paths, but once they got that, they loved the idea.

Many hunters and shop owners have asked me when I am doing the next hunt... NEXT hunt? Geeze you people must really think I am insane (I will freely admit to being a little nuts, but insane is taking it a bit far). There is no way I could have done this hunt without some very nice, generous, and tolerent shop owners. Some processes in this hunt have been a little complex, and having to change LM's to skip tardy shops and later add them back in is a tad bothersome, but everyone did it with grace and I thankyou all for that.

So really, do I plan to do another hunt?? Hmmm, there are lots of hunts coming up already, everywhere I see halloween hunts (some of those have even started already), and of course christmas hunts are being advertised now or are are well in the works. So do people need another hunt on their calendars? No really, I am seriously asking that question.
I am one of those people that is never really short of ideas (just don't always have the resources, know how, or confidence to carry them out), so have plenty ideas for innovative stuff (and no not saying here to have the ideas nicked lol), but has the time of the Hunt wanned? Is there so many people are sick of them and they are no longer effective?

In november I have my Virtual Fruit event that is a crossover between SL and RL. It is for Feast (www.feast.org.au) which is a festival for gay/lesbian/queer folk in Adelaide, Australia, and will hopefully attract new people to SL. I am happy to have a small gridwide hunt, or even more ideally little outlets around my area for people to promote themselves. I am talking rent free as such for those having outlets, but preferably 10 or 15% of any sales made (I have upped my tier for a while during this time to make for a better event, and would love, not expect, to cover some of that cost), temporary outlets could stay until after christmas to grab a few holiday sales as well. This is also ideal for individuals that have never been able to afford a shop to see if there is interest in their goods.

So anyway, be part of november proceedings or something to start the new year would be my suggestions for people, like the idea stick up your hand (ok put it down, you look silly doing that in front of your computer, just send me a message instead).
