Keli Kyrie Posted May 25, 2012 Share Posted May 25, 2012 Recently I was invited to explore the Happiest Place in Second Life, Hairy Hippo Fun Land. Okay so it was foggy when we got there and some of the rides were broke but we had a blast! They have an interactive food court that can actually make your avatar feel ill and have to run to the restroom along with some awesome games and prizes. That is where I won this Totally Awesome Huggable Mole!So How about you, have you ever won anything in Second Life? What was it and do you have a picture? (you know what they say; pics or it never happened). Please share what you have won in Second Life.Disclaimer: This post is not intended to spark a debate about whether or not Second Life is a game. This post was created to show that there are fun things to do in Second Life that have prizes you can win.

Venus Petrov Posted May 25, 2012 Share Posted May 25, 2012 I have 'won' some random Lucky Chair prizes when I just happened to be in the shop when 'V' came up, and L$ when sploders were the rage in clubs a few years ago. No photos of those occasions, sorry! I have earned the friendship of a few people who I hold dear. BTW, congrats on your prize. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have not tried it yet, but I should. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have not tried it yet, but I should. The place where rocks roll over you and you win L$6/hour? Only when it was very early and I could not figure out (or did not have the patience to do so) the rules. Others have enjoyed it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brenda Connolly Posted May 25, 2012 Share Posted May 25, 2012 Back in my early SL days, I had an unbelieveable run of luck with sploders, winning about 10K Lindens in a little over a week. It was enough to let me buy all the essentiasl to get going and it really helped me want to stay in SL. The quality of freebies was nothing like it is today back in 2007. Of course it just spurred me to want to buy more stuff and pony up a CC number, so in the end I probably "lost". But I'm not complaining. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I had not won some Lindens in contest, and was no given some by people that just wanted to help a newbie I may have never known the joy of spending money in SL. Now that I knowit I am hoooked.

Ima Rang Posted May 25, 2012 Share Posted May 25, 2012 No, no I have not...But, I would consider it a huge win if you were to share where you obtained those fabulous capris that you are wearing in the pic...love them. ColdLogic? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marianne McCann Posted May 25, 2012 Share Posted May 25, 2012 I'd say the biggest prizes were when Linden Lab did the Golden Hearts and Golden Eggs thing, for L$5000 per. I got a couple of those. Helped that I knew my Linden and Mole builds. Mount G'al was very good to me. Twice. :-) I've won a few other items here and there, such as some of the Goodies in The Wilderness and in Rizal, some neat stuff at Pyri Peaks, oh, and L$ in Linden Realms. And, of course, Hairy Hippo Fun Land. :-D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pamela Galli Posted May 26, 2012 Share Posted May 26, 2012 I don't suppose camping counts? (Esp if you are so dumb you think you have to sit there and watch your avi camp.) :smileyembarrassed: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coby Foden Posted May 26, 2012 Share Posted May 26, 2012 When I was very newbie camping was the thing to "win" some Linden dollars. During the "golden" age of xploders I won money, money and more money. Sometimes one could win crazy amounts in short time. Few times I have won money in those "best in something" competitions in clubs. Lucky chairs have dropped something into my inventory occasionally. Recently I have not won anything as I mostly explore places, go sailing, go to concerts or do something similar where there is no chance to win something. :smileytongue: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
