RFL Sunbeamers: Bid Me Ringtail Results

 

The results of what are likely to be the last of the Relay for Life's Team Sunbeamers Bid Me fundraisers are in. "Bid Me Ringtail" concluded on Saturday May 23, at 8PM SL time.:

 

Stay Foxy: 350L

Go Ringtail: 19,000

Six weeks as a ringtail (when not covering the news or representing the Newser). Somebody must really want a second ringtail who puns around the clubs. ;-)
 

So it looks like for a month and a half, when not doing Newser duties, yours truly will be having "ring around the tail.

RFL Sunbeamers: Bid Me Ringtail

 

 Team Sunbeamers has one more Bid Me fundraiser this month. This time it's intrepid reporter, Bixyl Shuftan, has stepped forward to put his looks on the line in "Bid Me Ringtail."

 

The rules are fairly simple. There are two kiosks at Club Cutlass in the room behind the dance floor, a default one on the left, and a change one on the right.  For every three thousand Linden dollars donated to the right kiosk, rounded down, Bixyl has to spend a week as a ringtail. 5999 Linden dollars would mean one week, 6000 L would mean two with a stripped long tail. For those wanting to keep the fox reporter foxy, they can donate to the kiosk on the left. It it's total is higher than the right one, he stays as he is. 

 

People have until Saturday May 23 at 8PM SL time to head to Club Cutlass and donate. At that time, all results will be final.

RFL Sunbeamers Bid Me Events: April 2026

 

The Relaystock is over, and the Relay's Team Sunbeamers has passed the one million Linden fundraising mark (inworld and offworld combined), But the team's far from done raising cash for the American Cancer society. Three vic-er, volunteers have put their looks on the line for charity in the latest of the team's "Bid Me" events. These fundraisers are based on the "Bid Me Bald" ones popularized by the Relay Rockers team.

 

Cynthia Farshore and Shockwave Yareach have an unusual pair of Bid Me events. They are each offering to be a clone of one another: Cynthia as Shockwave and vice versa. For both of them, they each have a pair of kiosks in the back of Club Cutlass, Cynthia's the left pair, Shockwave's the center pair. For every 3000 Linden dollars donated in the right kiosk, rounded down, they have to be a clone of the other for a week, Cynthia as a male wolf, Shockwave as a female goat. 5999 Lindens would mean one week, 6000 Lindens would mean two weeks. As with most other Bid Me events, there's a default kiosk for those wanting to keep them their current looks. If the left kiosk is greater than the one on the right, nothing happens.

 

The third Bis Me event is by Charlee Harmony.  She's offering to change from her usual red fox avatar to a black vixen. For every 2000 Lindens in the right kiosk, rounded down, she stays in her new look for a week. 3999 Lindens would mean one week, 4000 Lindens would mean two. 

 

The kiosks are in the back of Club Cutlass, and so far a total of 18,500 L have been raised in all three. Donations are being accepted until Saturday April 25 when they will presumably be closed at the end of the party that night at 8PM SL time and the results final.

RFL: Team Sunbeamers' "Bid Me Purple" And "Bid Me Pink"

 

 The Relay for Life's Team Sunbeamers has launched it's first "Bid Me" events this year. Inspired by the "Bid Me Bald" fundraisers by the Relay Rockers team, over the years the mostly-furry Sunbeamers team has done all kinds from "Bid Me Human" to "Bid Me Pantsless" to "Bid me Skunk." And to help start things off for the 2026 fundraising season, "The little team that could" has launched "Bid Me Purple" and "Bid Me Pink." As with most other Sunbeamer Bid Mes, these are taking place at Club Cutlass.

 

For "Bid Me Purple," the vict - er, volunteer is Liska da'Lantros (LiskaDaLantros Resident). It involves two kiosks. For every 2500 Lindens, rounded down, donated to the right kiosk, Liska's normally reddish coat of fur will be purple. Meaning a total of 4999 Linden dollars donated by closing time would result in one week of her new color while 5000 Linden dollars will be two weeks of jokes of falling into a wine press. For those wanting to keep Liska her normal shade, they can donate to the kiosk on the left. If it's higher at closing time, then the red vixen stays red.

 

With "Bid Me Pink," donators are in for a treat as team captain Rita Mariner herself has volunteered to put her fur on the line. Her fundraiser runs much like Liska's, except that hers is for every 3000 Linden dollars a week raised is a week she spends as a pink Kani (pre-mesh) bunny. 

 

And just what does Rita think of the idea of going pink? Well there was what she was saying for the March 29 2019 Bid Me ...  

 

I go pink for a week, due to the evil, nasty, vicious Bixyl ... 

 

*chuckles* Glad to donate to the cause, Rita.  

 

When I last checked the kiosk, a total of 7100L had been raised for Liska's Bid Me, with 5000L for Rita's.

 

The kiosks will remain up in the room behind the dance floor area at Club Cutlass until Saturday March 14, probably at the end of the party at 8PM.

RFL Sunbeamers "Bid Me" Events

 

The Sunbeamers Relay for Life team may have gotten Emerald level after passing the one million Linden dollar mark. But that hasn't stopped them from going after more. The team currently has three "Bid Me" events going, inspired by the "Bid Me Bald" fundraisers of the Relay Rockers. All involve kiosks at Club Cutlass in Sunweaver Bay.
 

The first has Shockwave Yareach as the volunteer, "Bid Shockwave Goat," in which the Sunnies' master builder as well as of parody tunes is putting his looks on the line. For the fundraiser, two kiosks are involved. For every 3000 Linden dollars dropped in the one on the right, rounded down, Shockwave has to spend a week as an anthro goat. 5999 Lindens would mean one week, 6000 L would mean two weeks. There's also a "keep Shockwave Wolf" kiosk on the left for those wanting him to stay as he is.

 

Cynthia Farshore, the team's other master builder, whose work as won awards, has volunteered for her own "Bid Me" event, "Bid Cynthia Wolf."  For every 3000 Linden dollars dropped in the right kiosk, rounded down, the Sunbeamers' ever hardworking nannygoat becomes a wolfess for a week. 5999 Lindens would mean one week, 6000 L would mean two weeks. There's also a "keep Cynthia Goat" kiosk on the left to keep her hooved and horned. 

And last but hardly least, team captain Rita Mariner has also volunteered to put her looks on the line for "Bid Rita Pinkie." For every 3000 Linden dollars dropped in the right kiosk, rounded down, the Sunnies' "killer rabbit" becomes a pink anthro pony for seven days. 5999 Lindens would mean one week, 6000 L would mean two weeks. There's also a "Keep Rita Bunny," kiosk for those wanting to have her avoid becoming a color she is not looking forward to being.

 

All three fundraisers are going on until Saturday May 17th. Usually the kiosks take donations until just before 8PM SL time when the Cutlass Saturday parties are about to end. But there has been an exception or two.

Once again, the kiosks are accepting bids until May 17.

RFL Sunbeamers: Bid Rita Pink (and Purple)

 

 

Team Sunbeamers is know for it's "Bid Me" events. They already had three going on a week ago. Not long after, the team captain Rita Mariner volunteered to put the color of her fur on the line for a fourth one: "Bid Rita Pink and Purple."

As with other Bid Me fundraisers, there are two kiosks in the back room of Club Cutlass. The default one on the left is for those wanting to keep the "killer rabbit" as she is. For those wanting wanting to make her pink and purple, there is the change kiosk on the right. For every 3000 Linden dollars donated, rounded down, the team captain has to change her appearance for a week or so. If 5999 L is the total at the end, she will be the color of strawberries and grapes for a week. If 6000 Linden dollars is the total, she'll be in the pink (and purple) for two weeks.

Rita's fundraiser ends sometime on Saturday May 11. For those wanting to donate to the others, DeniseUnicorn Toonie's "Bid Me Pink" ends Saturday May 4. Skylark Lefavre's "Bid Me Pink, Blue, and White" and Brian's "Bid Me Pink" also end on Saturday May 11.

The kiosks for the fundraisers are at Sunweaver Bay (114/117/757).

RFL Sunbeamers: "Bid Me Pink" And "Bid Me Pink, Blue, & White", And Bid Me Purple Results

 

 

On Sunday April 21, The RFL Sunbeamer's team captain Rita Mariner announced the results of Liska's "Bid Me Purple" fundraiser.

Here are the totals on Liska going PURPLE.

To stay as is:  1ooL

To go PURPLE::  25,450L

Liska goes Purple for 8 weeks, until JUNE 9.

But this isn't the end of the "Bid Me" fundraisers for "the little team that could." There are now three more, the kiosks in the back room of Club Cutlass at Sunweaver Bay (114/117/757). There are two "Bid Me Pink" fundraisers, for Brian (BrianL61 Landar) and Denise Unicorn Toonie. And there is a "Bid Me Pink, Blue, and White/Tricolor Fox", for Snowbuns (Skylark Lefavre).

I had a few words with Snowy about her fundraiser. Her form, a pink, light blue, and white fox, had a few reasons behind it, "I lost some of my family to Breast Cancer. Breast Cancer carries a pink color. But, breast Cancer affects men and women. So pink and blue." She included white so she could be a little of the color she usually is: all white. 

Snow's pair of kiosks are on the far left of the group in the backroom of Cutlass. For those wanting to keep her a white bunny, donate to the one on the left. For those wanting her pink blue and white for a while, donate to the one on the right. It will take 3,000 Linden dollars per week, rounded down. For example, if the final total raised is 5,999 Linden dollars, she spends a week as a tricolor vixen. If 6000 is raised, it's two weeks in pastel colors. 

For DeniseUnicorn Toonie, her fundraiser is "Bid Me Pink." She showed the Newser a picture, "Every 5000 rounded down will keep me a pink cow for one week." Her pair of kiosks are in the far right of the group in the back of Club Cutlass. So for those wanting to keep her as a unicorn, donate to the default kiosk on the left. For those wanting to make her a pink bovine, donate to the one on the right. She she was saying, if a total of 4999L gets raised, nothing happens. But of 10,001 gets into the kiosk, it's strawberry milk jokes for two weeks. 

Brain's fundraiser is a little different from the other two. Like Denise's it is "Bid Me Pink." But instead of per week, it will take a certain amount of Lindens to make him change for a whole month. His pair of kiosks are in the middle of it set in the back of Cutlass. To keep him as is, donate to the one on the left. To make him in the pink, donate to the kiosk on the right. It will take 15,000 Linden dollars to make him change for a month. It hasn't been stated what he'll do if more than twice that gets raised.

Denise's "Bid Me Pink" ends sometime on Saturday May 4. Brian's "Bid Me Pink" and Snowy's "Bid Me Pink, Blue, and White" end on Saturday May 11.

Once again, the kiosks are in the back of Club Cutlass at Sunweaver Bay (114/117/757).

"Bid Us Squirrels" Results

 

On Saturday April 13, the "Bid Us Squirrels" fundraiser by the Relay for Life's Team Sunbeamers was concluded. Team Captain Rita Marnier posted the results in an announcement.

 

Bixyl and Charlie BID ME is done, Here are the results.                      
 KEEP THEM FOXY = 5350L
 
Turn them SQURRIELY  = $25,900 L
 
 They go Black Squrriels for 5 weeks
 So until MAY 18th.
 

This makes for, officially, a grand total of 31,250 Linden dollars raised in the Sunbeamer's first joint "Bid Me" event. Usually, the totals for these fundraisers are finalized at around 8PM, at the end of the Cutlass Saturday night party. But this time they were announced earlier in the day.

 

So until mid-May, Second Life Newser's foxy reporter and Club Scorn's foxy DJ, Bixyl and Charlee Shuftan (Charlee Snowfox) will be "going squirrley." Hopefully the coffee machines have hazelnut varieties. 

The other Bid Me fundraiser, "Bid Me Purple," is still going on, at Sunweaver Bay (114/117/757), and is due to end Sunday April 21.

 

As of now, Team Sunbeamers has raised a total of 721,816 Linden dollars, currently in Jade ranks and closing in on Sapphire.

RFL Sunbeamers: "Bid Me Purple"

 

 

The Relay for Life's Sunbeamer team has another "Bid Me" fundraiser going. Liska has joined Bixyl and Charlee Shuftan in putting her appearance on the line with her "Bid Me Purple"

Like the first Bid Me, this fundraiser is taking place at Club Cutlass in Sunweaver Bay (114/117/757), in the room behind the dance floor. Like other Bid Me events, there are two kiosks. To keep Liska a red fox, donate to the default one on the left. To Bid Liska Purple, donate to the kiosk on the right. For every 3000 Linden dollars, rounded down, assuming the change kiosk is higher than the default one, Liska will be purple for a week. A total of 5999 Lindens would mean one week. 6000 L would mean two weeks.

The event ends on Sunday April 21, at which the totals will be made final. The bids are continuing for the other fundraiser "Bid Us Squirrels."

 

So come and show Liska a "grape" time.

RFL Sunbeamer's "Bid Us Squirels"

 

 

 The Relay's Team Sunbeamers are at it again. Every year, the team has done a number of "Bid Me" events, inspired by the Relay Rockers' "Bid Me Bald." But instead of losing our hair, the vict- er, volunteer goes through a period of time in a different look.  Over the years, we've had people go skunk, deer, human, bunny, mouse, panda, pink, and even "Bid Me Pantsless." 

But this time, the team is doing something different.

 

While couples have taken part in "Bid Me" events before, they've done so in separate ones, the guy taking on one look and the girl the other. This time, we have a couple doing a joint challenge: Bixyl and Charlee Shuftan (Charlee Snowfox) in "Bid Us Squirrels."

The fundraiser is taking place at Club Cutlass in Sunweaver Bay (114/117/757), in the room behind the dance floor. Like other Bid Me events, there are two kiosks. To make Bixyl and Charlee a pair of black squirrels, donate to the kiosk on the right. For every 5000 Linden dollars donated, rounded down, they'll be having an appetite for acorns for a week. To keep the couple their normal foxy selves, there's a default kiosk on the left. If it's higher at the conclusion of the Bid Me, the couple stay as they are. 9999 Lindens would mean one week as "tree rats," while 10,000 L would mean two.

So why black squirrels? Well, one commented this way, they'd be great ninja squirrels at night, "They'll never see us coming when we go after their nuts."

 

The event goes on to Saturday April 13 at 8PM SL time, at which time the totals are made final and it's announced how long the volunteers need to be in their new looks. Word has it Rita is getting a supply of hazelnut coffee to wake up in the morning.

 

At the writing of this article, the totals are currently 21,315 Linden dollars in the squirrel kiosk with 250L for the default. So if you want to make Second Life's foxy reporter and Club Scorn's foxy DJ a couple of nut jobs a little longer, come on over and donate.

Once again the kiosks are at Club Cutlass in Sunweaver Bay (114/117/757).

Sunbeamer "Bid Me" Update

 

Following their performance at the Relaystock, the Relay for Life's Sunbeamers have continued to do well. On Saturday May 20 at 8 PM, the "Bid Me Otter" fundraiser, of which Snowy HunniBunni Lefavre (Skylark Lefavre) was the volunteer, came to a close. Team captain Rita Mariner would announce the results.

 

SNOWY"S BID ME OTTER RESULTS

Snowy's Bid Me:

Keep Me Bunny - 1,000L

Bid Me Otter - 10,750L

Snowy goes OTTER for 3 weeks, until.JUNE 10.

 

So the loveable bunny DJ, who also manages the Happy Vixen and BBBC beach clubs, will be "otterly cute" for a few weeks.

 

While Liska's "Bid Me Skunk" fundraiser ended on Saturday May 6, she continued to be the purple fox for a while. She had been continuing the time from her previous Bid Me event. On Saturday May 20, she started the time for the skunk Bid Me. So now she reflects the sweet smell of successful Relaying.

So now there's one "Bid Me" fundraiser still ongoing: Mattie Carlton's "Bid Me Purple." It will last for a few more days, with the total raised made final on Saturday May 27 at 8PM and the announced soon after. For those wanting to make donations, head to Club Cutlass at Sunweaver Bay (114/117/757), and look for the kiosks. How long will things be going "grape" for the Relay DJ, we'll soon see.

Go Sunbeamers! Go Relay!

"Bid The Lindens Bald" Results

 

 On Wednesday May 17, the closing party of the "Bid the Lindens Bald" Relay for Life fundraiser took place. Hosted by the Relay Rockers team, the event took place in the Relaystock 2023 sim south of American Cancer Society. A number of Lindens and Moles volunteered to put their looks on the line, and were divided into several teams, with the one who raised the least to get the barber's chair.

While the party wasn't to officially start until 2PM SL time, people were arriving much earlier.  The place was packed with over 100 avatars present at times.

 

 

Team Three, the one with Mini Mole, Kit Linden, Chioni Linden, Lilith Linden, and K B Linden, was the one that raised the least money. So Mini and Chioni got the barber chairs, Along with Derick and Sequoia Linden and Justa Mole out of sympathy, and then came the haircuts courtesy of Patch and Milli Mole. 

The event raised 736,000 Linden dollars, including 100,000L thrown in by Patch Linden at the end. This catapulted the Relay Rockers past the two million Linden dollar mark, and into Diamond level fundraising. 

Special thanks to Kamida Delec for the pictures (and record of the chatter)

Relay for Life's "Bid The Lindens Bald"

 

 

 Tomorrow, Wednesday May 17, will be the conclusion of one of the more interesting "Bid Me" Relay for Life events, the "Bid The Lindens Bald," or as it's officially known, the "Bid The Lindens Bald Team Challenge."

Various Lindens and Moles have volunteered to put their looks on the line, including the noted Patch Linden. They're split into several teams, with a kiosk next to the board of each one for people to donate into. On Wednesday May 17, tomorrow, at 2:30 PM, the totals will be made final. The team with the lowest total loses their hair until the start of the Second Life Birthday celebrations.

The event is hosted by the Relay Rockers RFL team.

Reader Submitted: The Michi Clone

 

 

Taken by Rita Mariner. When Liska da'Lantros got bid a skunk in her latest "Bid Me," she decided to make herself look like Luskwood founder Michi Lumin. On Wednesday May 10, Michi herself came to Club Cutlass, the main hangout of the Sunweaver community, saw Liska, and posed with her for a picture.
 

Sunbeamer "Bid Me" Update: "Bid Me Otter" and "Bid Me Purple"

 

The Relay for Life Team Sunbeamers has had some good successes. With the Air Show and Medieval Fun Fest events, done with Roos With A Dream, the team was catapulted to Sapphire rank fundraising. But helping the team were the "Bid Me" events going on. On Saturday May 6, three were concluded, the "Bid Me Bunny," "Bid Me Panda," and "Bid Me Skunk" events.

Here are the totals for the three BIDD MES that ended tonight.
LISKA - Stay Fox -  100L
             Go Skunk -= 14,100L
             
 Liska goes SKUNK for 3 WEEKS
 
 BIXYL - Stay Fox - 50L
             Go Bunny - 14,100L
             
Bixyl goes Bunny for 4 weeks

CHARLEE - Stay Human - 500L
                   Go Panda - 12,000L
                   
CHARLEE goes Panda for 6 weeks

So this means that yours truly, when not doing obvious Newser work or at special appearances like the upcoming Newser anniversary party, will be dealing with carrot jokes for about a month. Usually it will me in the mesh bunny that Charlee helped me make after the Bid Me started. Charlee will have to deal with comments about Pandaren jokes and flirts for a month and a half. For Liska, she's showing a little creativity in her new skunk form, dressing up like Luskwood founder Michi Lumin.

But as most Relayers "otter" know, this is not the end of the Bid Me events. There's a couple more. They are Skylark "Snowy" Lefavre's "Bid Me Otter," and Mattie Carlton's "Bid Me Purple." 

 

Like most other Bid Me fundraisers, Bid Me Otter has two kiosks. For those wanting to give Snowy a taste for fish, they donate to the otter kiosk on the right. For those wanting her to stay a bunny, they chip in to the default kiosk on the left. For every 3500 Linden dollars, rounded down, in the right kiosks at the end of the fundraiser, Snowy is stuck as a "rudderbutt" for a week. For instance, if 6999 L is raised at the end, she would need to stay in her new form for a week. If 7000 Lindens are raised, It's "otter chaos" for her for two weeks. And if more is raised in the "stay bunny" kiosk, she stays one.

For Mattie's "Bid Me Purple," the idea came to her as she was going about the shops at the Fairelands recently, some of the items going to make a fairy-winged purple kitsune, "It's a 100% unique avatar built for Relay for Life. And all of it was pretty much purchased at fantasy Fair." Like Snowy's Bid Me, there's a change kiosk on the right, and a default kiosk on the left. For every 2000 Linden dollars raised in the purple kiosk, rounded down, Mattie assumes the form of her violet nine-tailed fox for a week. That is, if the amount there is greater than the default kiosk.

Both Bid Me fundraisers are at Club Cutlass. Snowy's event ends on Saturday May 20 at 8PM following the close of the party there. Mattie's event ends on  Saturday May 27, also at 8PM.
